When I met Christopher we were in the same Moral Issues and Spanish class in 10th grade. For some reason we just instantly clicked and we really enjoyed each other's company. Our friendship deepened and we started to learn each other more on a personal level. As time went on our feelings began to grow for one another without realizing it. It was actually really funny because we started to get jealous over small things even if it involved us hanging out with other people we pretended like we didn't care when we felt left out. Despite how close we were, we both hesitated to express our true feelings, fearing it might ruin the special friendship we had. When the signs continued to show we made things official. Even though nobody is perfect I knew Christopher was the one because he always does everything he can to be the most perfect person ever. Christopher's efforts to be the best version of himself were undeniable and deeply touching. He always went out of his way to make me feel appreciated and loved, remembering small details and moments that were important to me, and showing up in ways that mattered. He would always surprise me with my favorite snacks and provide me with words of encouragement right when I needed them the most.

I met Rayanna in 10th grade in our moral issues class. She had this look on her face like she didn’t want to be bothered with anyone. When class ended and we were outside, she stopped and we spoke for a little while before going to our next class. After that we continued to speak during lunch and we instantly clicked. From then on we became really close friends and pretty much did everything together. A lot of people in school used to see us together and would always think that we were more than friends, but we would always tell them that it was nothing more. As time went on , I started to develop feelings for her that were deeper than friendship, and I thought in my head that she felt the same way. We started to flirt with each other towards the end of the school year but it was nothing serious. When I first told her that I had feelings for her, she wouldn’t give me the time of day, but eventually I was able to make her my girl after a long summer. I knew that Rayanna was the one because, there is not a thing that I would do for her that she isn’t willing to do for me. Despite some of the stupid mistakes I’ve made in the beginning she stuck with me. She’s always attentive to anything that I have going, and always works on herself to make our relationship better. She is beautiful, motivated, and extremely intelligent. I have seen her go through a lot and despite it all she continues to strive to be the best she possibly can be.
