(about 6 1/2 Years Ago)

So a girl walks into a bowling alley.

And out of nowhere cute boy in white T-shirt screams “Heather!” and whips across said bowling alley and whisks girl up into his arms and spins her around.

I hadn’t seen Justin in a few years. But I hadn’t really ever seen Justin before that day. Not really. My heart flipped. Something changed.

There were moments probably when I was fourteen or fifteen when we were flirting and he let me win at thumb wrestling. And when we were exchanging our crazy hats. But on that particular day the world turned to the exact moment where our lives collided and everything and nothing would always and never be the same again.

Then the story goes that after the bowling alley and incessant flirting, boy and girl decided that it was important to see the movie Spider Man. Boy had already seen Spider Man, and girl didn’t really want to see it, but wanted an excuse to see boy again. They were merely going as “friends,” but lucky for both the movie got scary and they had to hold hands.

And the rest is history.
