i had to dig the story out of my old journal. here it is.
First day of sophomore year at WSD....haley and i excitedly chatted with our friends outside by the cafeteria while our parents were signing up. i look around...and i see this tall boy (thick eyebrows, couldn't see his eyes that well, pimples all over, chapped lips) with headphones on and listening to music. oh... he's just a relative of someone who goes to wsd is what came to my mind. i continued to chat with my friends....the corner of my eye, i saw him staring at me. i didn't like it at all. it was kind of annoying.
later that evening, after all the parents had left and everyone got settled in. everyone was hanging outside by my cottage. i noticed the tall boy coming closer to me. he asked signing awkwardly and kind of hard to understand, what is your name? i fingerspelled stephanie. he then asked haley the same thing. he fingerspelled his name slowly, tyler.
(i didnt know this part until a few months ago) after the social that night, tyler went back to his dorm. asked liki who is the new tall girl? i didn't catch her name. she signed too fast. liki told him i was stephanie. i dunno when but tyler had written I <3 stephanie vik on the wall in his room, but totally spelled wrong.
the next day - we had a field trip to the park. we walked there. i met arron, and i thought he was funny and nice. on the way back to school, arron took my hand and held it. then like...3 minutes later, tyler on the other side took my hand and held it too. i felt so awkward. but tried to not take it too seriously.
i knew by how tyler acted, he didn't really have any friends. he was trying to fit in. some kids didn't have the patience to sign slowly for tyler. i felt bad for him and everytime i talked with him, i didn't sign that much because i wasn't too sure if he would understand some or nothing at all.
i started dating this boy, arron... it went on for 7 months with arugments and fights. he was a daystudent so the only time we saw each other was during school or at games.
tyler started dating this girl, amanda, from my cottage. but they weren't too serious or anything. tyler'd come over to the cottage to see amanda but end up chatting with me.
one night i borrowed his sweatshirt and went off campus with some friends. when i came back - amanda ran in the cottage and bursted in tears...she walked right up to me and yelled, it's all your fault! tyler broke up with me! i think it's because of you...because why are you wearing his goddamn sweatshirt? .. whoa whoa. i explain to her that we are only friends and i am with arron, duh.
one day i got so fed up with arron and broke up with him. everyone knew right away, of course rumors. i ain't surprised. tyler started coming to my cottage every night. on fridays and sundays we always sat together on the bus going home and to school.
one day in P.E. - Kandace, one of my roommates, just bursted out to me and tyler. you know what, you guys are just so perfect for each other. you both are tall. you both have money. you guys know how to have fun with each other. c'mon! oh boy... i was speechless and kind of embarassed.
one night when hugging goodnight, i kissed him and quickly went into the cottage. i was lame, i even looked out the window and saw him all shocked. kandace was basically jumping around and spreading the word around. that night i had mixed feelings. i wasn't sure if i did the right thing. i wrote tyler a letter explaining to him, don't get the wrong idea and i don't want to have anything else further with you. the next day he was leaving early on the train to go back home (7 hours on the train) for a doctor appointment. i gave the note to him right before he left. i felt so bad but i had to let him know how i feel. while he was gone, i was lonely and tempted to get back together with arron and i did.
the next week...tyler found out. he was in his dorm all upset. his roommates - craig and liki were telling tyler - i'm not right for him since i am messed up with my feelings and stuff.
a couple of weeks - the fighting continued with arron, so broke it off for good.
spring break was coming, i was so excited to go to hawaii. when i got off at my stop in seattle, tyler grabbed me and asked me out. i said no and just walked off. i didn't want to be asked out right before going to hawaii. i want to go to hawaii and enjoy my time without any pressure or stress.
one day i was so tired from basketball and was getting sick. haley and i fell asleep on the couch. kandace wakes me up saying tyler wants me in his dorm. of course all cranky i say no and go back to sleep. rewjfkbwef i couldn't go back to sleep. neil came over and wanted to go to dairy queen. i needed that to keep me awake. when i came back i saw tyler. he was really upset with me that i chose neil over tyler. boys!!!
tyler asked me to the prom. i told him sure i'd go with him only as friends. one day on the bus going back to school, i had this weird feeling since he said he had something to ask me later. my heart pounding. i had my pillow on my lap and he laid down to watch a movie with ashley and mary-kate in it. he looked at me and mouthed, "will you go out with me?" i said yes. i thought it'd be a fling for now until school's over because i knew i was moving to arizona.
he told me how much he loved me at prom outside by the waterfront. i knew from there that we were now serious. i felt like i was cinderella.
