who’s that person that you wonder if they still think about you? what’s your story with them?

Note: this was typed as I was remembering so I know it's long and there might be some words missed (I think faster than I type so if there's an entire word missing from a sentence lol I'm sorry) also I doubt anyone will even read it let alone reply just cuz how long it is but enjoy my story cuz ngl it was good to remember and share <3 oh and sorry if a i get a little rambley~~ I think it adds character~~

Back in highschool durring freshman year I had studyhall last period with a buddy of mine and he was obsessed with this girl(I won't say she was out his league, and honestly mine too, but I guess he was kinda friend zoned?). I knew her a little from having a class or two with her. She was pretty forsure although I didn't actually like KNOW KNOW her. Anyway, in said study we say next to each other. He'd break out his iPad and text her and i would play games on my iPod while also being like half in whatever they were talking about since I was right there. Eventually it somehow turned into him playing shit on my iPod while I was at the wheel talking to her (yes she knew it was me I wasn't pretending to be him or anything) and it started to become an every day thing. We would get to study hall switch devices and do our shit. And after talking to her every day for probably weeks I started to fall for this girl pretty hard. Getting to that last class and talking to her became the entire point of my day (huge fuckin under achiever saying she was part of the reason I went to school is not an understatement) so any way we talked everyday only ever thru the screen. Then summer came and I was cut off from my drug. I wasn't devastated or anything summer is fun I don't have to deal with school. But as summer went on I found I only think about her and it got to the point where if I didn't say something it would explode. No matter how much I pushed it down it literally would not budge I just cannot hold my feelings back like that. So I dm'd her on Instagram that I had a huge fucking crush on her (I was on vacation on the other side on the country so it's not like we could meet up to talk not like id have the balls to anyway) I don't super remember her response but it felt like it took fuckin years. It was something like "really lol" or something like that I remember it being a fine response but not really going anywhere aside from like a couple more messages.

School starts back up, I get to my last class (math which I had a big ol boner for) and GUESS WHO FUCKIN THERE BOIS, it was her! And this was a smaller math class so I figured it was an even better chance to get some one on one time maybe try and see if I can get anything to happen (this is now jr year and due to having alot of negative opinions of my body my self conference was non existent, a girl could pull out my dick and start sucking it and I'd be like "yeah but she doesn't like me, it's just my head, she couldn't like me" it was pretty bad) we sat pretty close to each other for the first Seating set up ( u know how they change it up every 9 weeks or whatever) close enough to where we could talk and I could make her laugh throughout the class (self confidence was low but I'm a pretty funny dude) so school goes on. We talk, I tho I try to flirt but I definitely always kept her laughing or smiling. Eventually we had a seat change and the paper was written by the god himself putting her seat directly in front of mine (HOLY FUCK this is my best chance) so now of course we would talk even more, laugh even more yada yada. I remember one day she had even grabbed my phone and "made a joke" saying she'd put her number in it, I didn't really react (again I was a bitch u know this) and after a second of us laughing she just put it down and that never ended up happening. So that year wraps up with me not getting any ground what so ever (awesome.) I go into my Jr year summer (probably the best and eventually worst of my life but that's a whole different story for a post 10x longer than this one)

Enter senior year with my first ever like actual girlfriend(different girl), we met on an app (whisper it was completely an accident but like I said she's a story for a different day) and she went to a different School (and didn't have any social media or a phone number lmao jk jk) so whatever I go thru the year feeling like a fuckin Mac cuz I have a girlfriend. I'm literally untouchable dude I was a king (okay off topic my bad back to the story u spent so much of ur time getting invested in) eventually I had this class durring lunch were I could take an online class to make up credits for classes I had failed (I'm honestly really smart mostly cuz I have a great memory and common sense but I dont use it at all I'm sure it could be some kind of add or ADHD but I just blame it on me not trying hard enough) and after a month or two in the class she started showing up in there too. But she didn't sit by me. I forget how long it was but for the first couple weeks she didn't sit by me. Then one day outta no where she plopped down right next to me. We chatted it up and caught up shared some laughs and eventually talked about how I had a girlfriend now. One of the first things out of her mouth was that I should send my lady a pic of me and her. Im pretty sure at this point even I wasn't clueness enough to not notice she wanted to make my lady jealous. And I was totally down and sent the pic and we talked thru the rest of class that day. And after that she'd sit away from me talking to this other dude I knew she was friends with. Maybe once every few weeks sitting close enough that we could talk a little and she would indeed recommend sending my girlfriend another pic of us (she suggested it a few times) and that's where it ends. That's literally it, my other even longer story cut Into my life and I had stopped going to school basically dropping out so I never saw her again (aside from like a post on social media but lol that doesn't count)

But that's where it ends. It's been like 4ish years since my Sr year and I wonder if she still thinks about me, or if she ever "actually" thought about me. I think it's pretty obvious she SOME kinda feelings for me (right?) And I wonder if I ever come up in those late night thoughts u have thinking bout ur past. Like how I wish so badly I would've said yes and had her put her number in my phone. I don't think about her a ton since I've had a ton of shit go down but she was the first girl I was into like that. So she does definitely come up sometimes. And I wonder if I do for her.
