This summer I turned 16 and all I could think of was my geometry teacher. I took geometry twice because I failed it my freshmen year. My second geometry acted like a male version of me. I go to his class and I didn’t enjoy it as much. I just didn’t pay attention but something he said stuck on to me. At first he said to me ” I don’t care if you fail again, that’s your problem”. But then me and my bestfriend realized our class was right next to each other so he always walked together, or I would give her a piggy back ride (I’m a pretty strong person), and when he saw that my friend had an impact on me he made her make sure that I would do my homework. We had tons of homework and my friend would always get me to do it. If the fire alarm rang we would watch the office outside and he would come out and watch next to us cause the office was his favorite show too. But anyways so I started paying attention to class more often and got my grade up. He seemed proud because most of the kids in that class were failing for not giving a s***. Sometimes we would talk about sports but when he mentioned the the Pittsburgh Penguins was his favorite hockey team I wanted to cry. Everyone seemed to always hate hockey but he enjoyed it. He also said Chicharito was his favorite soccer player and he use to be in band (I play french horn btw but he played percussion) i was just so happy though. We just started having more things in common and it was even freakier to hear that he wanted to be a mechanical engineer. I swear I found the love of my life at 15 when I met him. I’m not sure but I know I haven’t met anyone that was close to the connection that me and him had. He’s such a great guy who doesn’t do drug or drink alcohol. He’s nice and he’s really tall too (tallness appeals to me cause I’m short). He’s 12-13 years older than me and it could cause conflict when I get older (I’m obviously not going to do shady s*** and risk him losing his job), but what if I’m too late. I plan on asking him after I turn 18 or after college but I would have to wait 5 years. I have to give myself enough time to certain, because what if he isn’t the one for me and I find someone better. But at the same time, his clock is ticking, he’s almost 30, he might settle down soon (like really soon) and I know I won’t be able to. I think I can make it work but definitely not right now. I just long to tell him…
