Where it Began...

You always remember how you met and how everything started with every serious relationship... We met at church, we'd cross paths a few times before at random church events... she barely knew me, I barely knew her... I started going to her church winter 2006/07; as young adults of the church there was a group of us who were single, around the same age and we jus started hanging out every weekend, group dates to random places jus the whole group enjoying each others company... we all were friends on AOL IM(dating myself lol) and would randomly converse from time to time... as time passed we'd strike up random conversations some superficial and jus surface things and other times we'd have deep long conversations... a friendship struck up... she'd come home every so often, a couple times she'd ask me to come grab her from the train station... I randomly asked her to link up for some ice cream, nothing serious jus to chill; a Friday afternoon walk to grab some ice cream turned into a 7 hour walk around the block a few times and the conversation jus flowed, we talked bout our past, love, God, values, music, etc... we stayed up till 3am jus talking in person with no interruptions... but nothing came of it... summer ended and time came for her to get back to school for her senior year of College at St. John's in New York, she boldly pulled me aside and expressed her interest in getting to know me on different level... which took me by surprised, I wasn't expecting any of that... I hesitated in my response but she knew what she wanted and she made it known... that same day she asked me to drop her off at the train station as she was returning to school... the drive was basically us figuring out what getting to know each other on a different level might be...as she left the car nothing was set in stone... I saw her off and started to drive away... 5 minutes into my drive back home I realized she had forgotten her food, normally I would have thought oh well the person will be alright but for some reason I was compelled and determined to get her food to her... I called her and told her I was on my way back to her... so I got off the first highway exit I saw and headed back to the train station... as I got to train station I randomly parked in the drop-off area(illegally at that) ran inside the station, ran all the way to where her bus was and gave her the food... and has most islanders do when saying hello or goodbye I went to kiss her on the cheek and somehow our lips met... it wasn't on purpose but it was quick peck followed by a blush from her and oh my fault on my end... we went our separate ways... she reached NY and I reached home... we didn't talk for the next couple days probably both seeing who'd call first... I finally ended the silence and gave her a call... from that day forward we started talking...
