I knew you were different (:

I smiled, and you smiled back. That's when i knew you were different.
I was sitting with a group of friends at an outdoor mall and too afraid to come to you.
My friends didn't even notice me admiring your perfect eyes, hair, body. everything.
You were with some friends who did notice.
You were whispering about me to your friends and i knew it was something good.
Because after a moment you came over to me.
You came right over and sat down next to me on the bench.
My friends had no idea what was going on and neither did i.
by that time, i know i was blushing.
You looked at me and said "Your beautiful"
and then got up and walked away.
I was so happy that i was shaking.
My friends kept asking how i knew you and why you came over but i didn't know what to say.
I was just as clueless as them.
As i walked into school the next day, there you were.
You must have been new and wanted to fit in.
I was disappointed but i saw you with other girls.
They were pretty much surrounding you.
You didn't even notice me.
Days went by and...nothing.
i saw you a few times and you saw me too.
but, nothing.
not a word.
After a month went by i forgot about that day and the memories with it.
You had gotten to know people and I'm sure you forgot about that day too.
"Today there is an assembly." my teacher had said.
i went and sat in the usual spot and sat and watched the lame assembly put on by the ASB members. Some rude guy from the same class as me, got up and yelled to the announcer.
He wanted to use the microphone.
I couldn't see his face, and i so desperately wanted to.
Him and one of the ASB officers started arguing, but no one knew what was being said.
Finally, she let him use the microphone.
"First," he said. "I need someone to come down here with me."
He turned around to look at the crowd.
It was him.
He said, "i saw a girl, a beautiful girl sitting there, on a bench with a group of friends." He started walking up the bleachers towards me. "I looked over and smiled at this amazing girl. She smiled back, and what did you know...she had a amazing smile too. My friends didn't even notice me admiring everything about this girl. Her eyes, her smile, her lips. everything. Finally my friends told me some girl was watching me. i was scared at first then i realized they were talking about the girl and i had been amazed by. I told them i would be right back, went up to this girl and told her she was beautiful." He finally reached me. "But then, i just walked away. stupidest decision in my life. i should have stayed and talked to you." I now knew that he was talking to me. "When i came here you didn't seem interested...so i gave you some space. but i can't take it. your the one i want to be with, your the one i want..."
He grabbed my hand and pulled me up. We slowly made our way down the bleachers and walked to the middle of the gym.
I had no idea what to do.
He continued "..The only problem is, i don't know your name."
Before i could reply, random people in the audience were yelling it out.
"now you know" i said.
He smiled and answered that with his name.
"So," He said. "Hows about you and me go on a date" with that he ran out of the room.
I was so confused.
A few moments later he came in with flowers.
Red roses.
I was shocked. Some guy, that i literally just met, brought me flowers in front of the whole school and told them of our story.
i nodded my head, took the flowers and hugged him.

I smiled, and you smiled back. That's when i knew you were different.
