Fell MADLY in love with a guy one year ahead of me. We were close friends, and he would call me all the time, pass me notes, go out of his way to drive me home, etc. My sophomore year, I finally got the nerve to 'confess' my love - by giving him a poem. He didn't respond. And since we were all in the same clique, it was next to impossible to shake him & his friendship. My Junior year, I was drunk at a party, and he made out with me. He invited a girl to prom who couldn't go to the all-night party afterwards at the home of my date. Since my date was host, I hung out w/ my love. Very confusing, the whole time. I still dated, but my heart was reserved for him.

It wasn't till 7 years later, at a mutual friend's wedding, when I met his fiance. She said, "so YOU'RE the one." She went on to explain that I was the magical girl she'd always been forced to hear about - that he was just as smitten with me as his twin brother was. Apparently, the twin called the crush first, so he could never go there.
