This is the day it all begins, today was the day I started my journey towards a teaching degree.
I couldn’t think of a more perfect career for myself, I loved both children and learning. I was determined to be the firs in my family to graduate. And it helped that my mother was cheering me on every step of the way. I was nervous, that was completely unknown territory for me.
I had forgone friends, hanging out and anything else that could distract me from my goal. I was prepared, so why was I so apprehensive? I remembered what my mom always tell me: the easiest way to be confident is to pretend! I walked into the building as confidently as I could. I didn’t know where I was, it was awkward because in the summer when I visited the place I didn’t have any problems finding my way around. I saw a student and I asked him where the five-c was. He was so cute and very polite and he showed me the way. My first two classes went great. Now I was heading for my first college lunch. Out of nowhere a ball hit me in my side, as I was walking and it knocked my lunch and study guide from my hands, and they flew into the grass.

– You should be more careful, sweetheart!
I looked up to see a tall, handsome boy, his hair pulled back in a ponytail. He looked cocky instead of apologetic and I felt my temper start to flare.
– Me be more careful? You’re the one who threw the ball at me!
– Calm down there, short girl. I didn’t mean anything by it. My name is Henry, I am on the basketball team.
I returned his ball and I thought he was the most arrogant guy ever. I relaxed during lunch telling myself that I don’t have to take it serious what happened before. I had another class and after that I went to the cafeteria, the place where I asked for a job, a part time job, to go whenever I am in need and I can. So I did, I put on my uniform , a black T-shirt and and some pants and as I was making my way around I heard someone calling me and she said:
– Are you insane? I ordered some decaf coffee, you brought me with caffeine.
I turned around and I saw a blonde girl, the princess type one. I told her that she should watch over her vocabulary because I am not the one who handles the drinks, but my colleague and we all make mistakes. Before I can say more, I saw Henry taking my part, the guy who hit me with the ball. He was so nice and he didn’t seem so arrogant and impolite this time, he showed up like a hero and put that girl into her place, I could see on her face the envy that I , the new girl and just a waiter, was being cared by the handsome basketball player. She tried to make a move on him, but he seemed rather bored by her and intrigued by me. She left with jealousy into her eyes. Henry asked me for some soda and I wanted to return his favor because he was nice and I told him that it is a treat from me the soda, and I apologized to him because I judged him badly before. He offered me a big smile and we began to talk and we realized we have so much in common.
Weeks passed quickly after that episode and we got very close, me and Henry. We were having fun together and he invited me to the prom. I was so excited and I was hoping that we will finally have our first kiss together. I put on my best dress and he came to pick me up with his fancy car. He was looking super hot, he was wearing an amazing perfume and opened the car door for me and he payed me a lot of compliments. We arrived at the prom, everything was perfect, the light,the music, it was a very beautiful atmosphere. When we entered everyone looked at us and we also saw the blonde, evil girl who changed her mood instantly when she saw me holding hands with Henry. She appeared in front of us and she asked:
– Are you serious, babe? Is that your partner? Come on, you could do better than this!
– Enough, Beatrice! She is my partner and you should respect her! I won’t even think to change her with you! You are childish and impolite, and only with the interest, you don’t care about people! Said Henry to her.
I was so surprised and I felt great that he told that, I felt loved, protected and important. Beatrice was angry and suddenly she took a glass of juice and she threw It on my dress with envy. I was shocked , I didn’t know how to react, everyone was starring and she burst into laugh , when Henry took the microphone and said:
– This is the proof that Beatrice is so selfish, full of envy and a frustrated bitch! That’s why I want all of you to hear that I am in love with the most beautiful, sweet and kind girl, and I don’t care if her dress is ruined, she is still gorgeous like a queen.
When he finished his words, I had tears in my eyes and he invited me to start the first dance and he kissed me in front of the big crowd, I felt like in the romantic movies and everyone applauded and I had the most wonderful time ever. Beatrice left the prom, ashamed and alone. We danced all nigh long, we took photos of us and we participated at different contests. At some point he asked me to follow him to his car. I wondered what was he having in mind , but I followed him. He put me to wait near the car and he got inside and he came back with a huge bouquet of lily flowers, it was the best gift ever, they were so perfumed and they were matching my bracelet which he gave me and put it on my waist when he picked me up from home. I was feeling spoiled and I kissed him all over his face, thanking him and telling him how good I fell because of how he was treating me. We vanished from the prom, we went to his place, he was home alone and we made love like two love birds. In seconds, I was out of the tree and going through the cornfield. I could hear him behind me, calling for me to hold up, however I didn’t. Home was just a mile away by then, so I ran. I tossed open my front entryway so hard it shook the house, startling my mom so terrible she dropped a glass. I heard the crush of the glass hitting the floor, my mom’s revile, and after that I was pummeling my room entryway and falling into my bed, wailing. I’d held it together that long, however in the asylum of my room, I could give upI was eager to be with him. Or if nothing else, I had been. I attempted to picture deliver mine, his arm around my midriff. I attempted to imagine myself kissing him. I shivered and needed to push the picture away, practically queasy. I instructed myself to stop being so exaggerated. Be that as it may, I couldn’t shake the picture. I could practically feel Kyle’s arms on my back, his hands spreading over my midsection, brushing perilously near my butt. I could feel the mystery excite of needing his hands to move only a little lower. I could practically feel his lips, warm and delicate and wet, slipping over mine…
I reddened and squirmed on the bed, moving to my back and wiping my face. He was gentle, romantic and he was whispering me sweet words. I had the nicest college experience ever.
We are still together now and we love and respect each other deeply.
