Coincdences.

This is really long, feel free to pass by it. 

Coincidences can be a great thing and a cruel thing. When it comes to most occasion I am not an advocate for believing that it was a coincidence. I'm usually the type of person that believes that all things happen for a reason so I take thing as they are. But there is one thing that I will always categorize as a coincidence. 

When registering for class in High School my original plan was to take physics my sophomore year and take chemistry my junior year. I heard chemistry was really hard so I figured 11th grade me could handle it. Due to the fact that I was a little nervous to take all my classes alone, I changed my mind and took chemistry A2 and health science A3. Things really ended up working out because I had chemistry with a friend and health science with friend. High School was looking up and I hadn't even started yet. 

First day in health science I walked into class, found my friend, and then we found our seats (we had a seating chart like children). Luckily we sat next to each other second row from the back. In the very front seat of the row to the right of me sat a senior boy who had a pretty sweet foe-hawk and a cool scarf. He was intriguing. 

Like I said before I sat second row from the back. Kiddy corner from me on the back row was another senior boy and he was the intriguing boy's friend. He decided to move from the front row to right behind me. At the time I didn't care. 

The first High School dance is always homecoming. This is also the dance where each grade has royalty for the dance. A very good friend of mine at the time was a senior and for fun she decided to put me down as a contestant for homecoming royalty. When she did this it was during lunch and she was sitting with all of her friends. Her friends consisted of like six boys and one of them being the intriguing boy. They joined in on the fun of nominating me for royalty. 

The next A-day in health science we were doing assignment that required computers. Our teacher had us turn our seats around so she could see our computer screens (again like children). Boy behind decided not to turn around so we were face-to-face. He brought up the fact that my name was in the pool for royalty and I explained to him that it wasn't going to happen, and also that I couldn't even attend homecoming, not old enough. 

Throughout the school year, my awkwardness towards him increases exponentially because I began to have a crush on him. Him pulling my split ends and making conversation at times didn't help. Was that anything to really base it on? Not at all. One day in class, randomly he sang the song "Replay" by Iyaz. This will matter later. 

My childhood best friend was in choir. Me being the supportive best friend that I was I went to the concert oblivious to the performances of the night. You guessed it, boy performed a beautiful duet. Christmas assembly came around a little later. Boy performed a beautiful solo. I couldn't escape anything. At this point I knew I was screwed forever. I'm the type of person that loves people forever. 

The semester ended and the class was over I found it a good time to move on. Of course that didn't happen. So he was in a photography class and during lunch I went over to talk to our mutual friend. I was wearing a beaded flower that was from Ecuador. It looked exotic and cool. He asked if he could take a picture of it but sadly the bell rang but not a big deal, whatever. Every semester of school at some point I had to go the absent school. I came barely on time one morning but there were no seats left. I look over and there he was standing up to give me his seat. I said in my mind, "S*%!, I'm gonna love you forever". Ha ha. But kinda. 

Now time has passed and now I'm just haunted by the song "Replay", the street sign with his name, and a local burger place with his name.
