Then he came along..
Actually he confessed or rather I guessed than he confessed, before I broke up.. I never expected him to show interest in me at all.. Up till this day I'm still amazed.
He is my best friend. My best guy friend. I confide in him, I knew all his darkest secrets, things that he never told anyone and he knew mine. I knew him for 3 years now 4.. He likes what I likes, I dislike what he dislike. The way we think, the kind of food we like to eat, the kind of things we experienced before, the little tiny fetish or weird habit that we had are almost identical or really exactly the same. We understand each other so well to the extend where we know what each other is thinking without saying anything at all and can finish each others' sentences..
I've always noticed him.. Since the first day.. And I can still remember exactly how we met..
Because of our similarities, whenever I faced issues with my boyfriends, I always wonder what will happened if it was him instead. I guess I had a crush on him for a long time, a crush that I never even dream that will have anything out of it.. I thought I was the only one who has been doing the crushing and noticing.. Little did I know, he was thinking about the exact same thing all along. Everytime when he had issues with his girl..
We actually lost touch for awhile cause of his ex-girlfriend.. After a few months of not meeting, things didn't change.. We still gets along very well as if we met everyday.. We started to hang out abit more.. When we walked closely together, I will have the thought of hoping that he will hold my hands.. And he really did have the temptation.. But didn't of course.. The time wasn't right.
After seeing me getting hurt all the time by my ex, and yet he couldn't do anything to help, he posted alot of emo stuff on facebook. That's when I start to notice and asked if it was about me.
I already started to suspect quite long ago ever since he asked me if I think we could be together if I wasn't attached. He told me that the posts are about me and he feel so useless because he can't do anything.. Then one of the days, after me kept asking, he said that I'm so smart that I should be able to guess what all those meant. And that is when he confessed that he is interested in me.. I was shocked though I already guessed it, because a guy like him, so wonderful so good, showed interest in me. Its very unbelievable.
During my breakup period, he helped me through those dark days.. He said he will wait for me till I am ready. I asked him if it'll be weird if we get together, he responded not at all. After being friends for so long, I just find it weird.. So I told him, let's have a trial run. We'll have a date as a couple and from there I will judge if we're suitable anot.
He readily agreed and we set the date to be on 27th September. We'll go out with his friends, all girls to sentosa. One of them is my secondary school mates. I wanted to go on the date just the two of us, but going alone suddenly as a sudden might be awkward so I didn't object.
The day grew closer and both of us became more and more nervous and also excited. He had already started calling me bii shyly.. Once I replied him, calling him bii as well, he was so excited and happy that he went round telling his friends. Everything I do, he feels that it was perfect. Something that no one ever says that to me before..
Then the day that we have been looking forward to came..
That day I have to go school in the morning in my formal wear, so I meet him and friends after that. I shall just totally skip the school part. Haha. Can't remember either.
After school, I went to vivocity to meet him. Before that I drop by cotton on to get new shorts cause there's something wrong with the one I brought along.. Didn't want to leave a bad impression on first date.
Changed and everything, I went to meet him at the Mrt station. Was very nervous. He came to me, looking as good as usual. I was worried about the awkwardness but he just took my hand as if it was the most natural thing to do. It felt normal to me too. But we both have sweaty palms due to nervous.
I was pretty shy and didn't look at him while we walk and talked. Then we meet up with his friends at Mac. They were still eating when we reached. It was kinda weird meeting them for the first time. Well, I did went out with him and his friends quite a few times before but this time is different. Different group of people. I don't know what to say. The ex school mate seems more shocked than surprised that we are together.
The journey to sentosa was okay. Small talk here and there. When we reached sentosa, we took the pram and take a few pictures. All these times that I knew him, this is the first picture we took together. I'm completely serious. 0.0
We arrived at the beach, they suggested that we play volleyball but we didn't bring any so the girls went to the nearby shop to find. This gives us some free time to ourselves.
We didn't do anything but sit down and talk.. Then I start to bury his legs in the sands. Haha. The girls took quite awhile only to come back and say the shop didn't carry it. So me and boy walked to the shops near the station to buy.
On the way, we passed by some pub. There're one with unique features but I couldn't see cause of my height. He carried me a distance just to let me have a good view of the inside. I was very shy so right after seeing, I jumped down immediately.
We bought the ball and joined the girls shortly. Had a volleyball match where I team up with him against the rest. As I am rather skinny, I bruised easily. Everytime I hit the ball, he would come over and rub my sore arms. Most of the time he was hitting to reduce the chances me getting hurt. That's really sweet of him. It started to rain soon after we started the game. But we just continued until the rain is too big.
Then we ran to the shelter to play cards. That's when I start to bond a little more with them. We started another round of volley again, cards are just too boring. I injured my arm at the beginning of the game, so the rest of the time I just sit down and watch. The game didn't last long. He keep coming over to talk to me so that I won't feel neglected. After we shower and stuff, we went back to vivo for dinner.
We met another friend of his at carl's junior for dinner. Had so much fun. Eating and teasing him. Its the second time I've been there and it's the first time I actually finished the whole burger!
When dinner's over, the group went shopping with me as I was looking for a school bag. Walking in and out of a few shops trying out. They're either too expensive or just not nice at all.
Bag hunt last stop was at River Island. We both saw a bag that looked really nice, and continued in to look at some others. I won't forget this. We were at the belt section. I was looking at one of them, when he kissed me. On the cheek. My right cheek. My heart raced, I felt my whole face burning. I was shocked. Pleasantly of course, I just didn't expect that to happen. For the rest of the time inside the shop I didn't look at him at all. I was too shy to do so. >.<
Later that day he sent me home. As we were coming up from the stairs, he called me. I turned around and he kissed me. Our first kiss. Not at any romantic places but still take my breath away. ♥
At night when we're on the phone, we are talking about how the trial went. Then he asked me again. He asked me to be his. And I said yes.
He then told me that he actually wanted to asked me at 12 midnight so that it will be a new day but he missed it. Either way, the day is just too awesome. Words can't describe exactly what I went through that day.
Its really like a fairytale.
