A year ago I wouldn't have ever imagined we'd be here today. I knew you only as the weird, skinny kid, who used to sing Mary Jane to me, but would change the words to Marie James. Though it was funny, I found it to be incredibly creepy.
I remember the day of homecoming you called me a bunch of times to see if I was still coming. I was in the car with Kalisha and Brandon, and I told them, "I wish he would stop calling me!" And when I got there, you was waiting at the bottom of the stairs, flowers in hand. I felt weird because I barely knew you, and didn't like you, and I didn't want you to waste anymore money or time on me. But I thought it was incredibly sweet that you did that.
Or the time you showed up at two in the morning to see me off to Philadelphia because we wouldn't see each other for two weeks. You brought me Sour Patch Kids and cranberry juice because those are my favorite. To this day that's the most amazing thing anyone has ever done for me, but I remember telling Brandon as we pulled off that I thought maybe you were far too into me, and I not that far into you.
Now sometimes I wish I could hear you singing that song, or walk down a few stairs just to find you waiting there for me, or get a random surprise visit.
I guess I didn't appreciate it much then, and I suppose I'm paying for it now.
