You would never believe that almost the same thing happened this past weekend. Let me lay out the scene for you. It's second period on friday. I'm feeling good, ready to go to Huntington with kels Saturday morning. Nothing can rain on my parade - that is until a friend of Kels's has the conversation with her directly before second period
Friend: Are Krista and Joe back together?
Kels: no... Why?
Friend: Because his facebook status says in a relationship.
kels: Oh
So as soon as class begins Kels leans over and I swear this is the reason she's my best friend. She looks at me and says "Krista, Joe has a girlfriend and the only reason I'm telling you is because I don't want you to be alone when you find out." My heart stopped. I mean bordering dangerous to my life stopped. Then it started beating at Cardiac Arrest pace and I thought I was going to cry. "Squeeze." kels said as she held out her hand. But I caught my breath blinked a few times wiped off the tear that was eeeking its way out and said "Nahh then they'll all know we're lesbians." I do believe that is the only reason I made it through the day. By day I mean the end of 8th period because by the time I pulled out of the school parking lot I had lost it. After sobbing for a solid 20 minutes I pulled myself together long enough to get into practice. Then, of course, my mom saw me, asked me if I'd been crying and I started all over again. But my girls were so cute. At first they looked at me like "O my gosh, our coach is crying. Coaches cry?" By the time I came out of the bathroom and was ready to go they were stretching and instead of counting, they spelled out my name. They gave me a huge hug, we sang "Picture To Burn" and all was right with the world. At this point I had decided that retail therapy was incredibly necessary and I was certain that no one at the Marshall game was going to look as hot as I was going to. So I called Rachel, my go to shopping buddy and we hit the mall. I found all that I needed to look knocked out gorgeous.
Saturday morning, Kels and I drove 3 hours to Huntington and after a slight detour at the wrong exit, parked the car in the driveway and went bolting into the house, up the stairs and got ready. I put on my favorite white shorts that always make my butt look good and the green polo that brings out my eyes. It was perfect. I turned on my inner flirt and I was so ready to go. We spent the first half of the first quarter looking for Joe in the student section and when we found him we decided it was time to go hang out with the cheerleaders on the sidelines right in front of the sutdent section. According to Kels (because I was to busy trying to not pay attention to him) he completely ignored his girlfriend while she was talking to him and watched me the entire time. it gets better. Every time we saw him he looked absolutely miserable. The football team won the game and I won my pride.
The rest of the story is yet to come.
