Me and dave...
Well, Dave and I go way back.
He was my neighbor growing up.
I met him in fifth grade... and immediately had a crush.
However, he did not like me at all.
He was constantly mean to me and teased me... mainly because I was new.
He was a geeky kid, so before i moved to the district, he was the one who would be picked on.
Now that i was there, he had someone to pick on.
Only every once in a while, he would show some kindness to me.
One time my mom forced me to go to one of the neighbor kids birthday parties and Dave was there too.
Everyone was dancing and completely ignoring me because I was the new kid on the block... and everyone was ignoring Dave because he was "uncool".
I remember that the girl whose party it was came up to him and said, 'My mom says I have to ask you to dance.'... and he replied, 'I'd rather dance with Angel.'
Which I guess was a shot towards me, in reality... but I was just like, 'oh, cool, he wants to dance with me' because you know, i was eleven years old.
So every year passes and the older we get... the meaner he gets.
More and more people pick on him for being "uncool"... so he picks on me more because he can.
By the time middle school hit, we pretty much couldn't stand each other. (though I still harbored a secret crush... what can i say... i LOVE smart guys).
But again, he'd be really nice to me every once in a while, if i was genuinely upset about something.
I remember that there was this rumor going around school that my boobs were fake (because you know, i was 13 with a chest... and girls can be mean).
And so he listened to me cry about it and talked to me and made me feel better....
He'd come over sometimes after that and just hang out.
Then one night he kissed me... got embarrassed and the mean cycle started again, lolz.
High School hits and we still don't get along that well but have pretty much constant interaction because he's my neighbor and comes over to play football and basketball with my brothers.
I start dating his best friend Kyle because Kyle tells me he's had a crush on me for a long time... (who also went to elementary school with us)
So the three of us would hang out a lot.
And then Dave and I started getting along much better.
The three of us became inseparable as friends (still are, actually... aren't we cute?:
Anyway, when things with Kyle and I didn't work out, Dave told me how he actually felt about me.
And then asked me out.
We were each others' first everything, basically.
We've been together ever since August 2003 (right before Junior year started)... with the exception of about a one year break-up after our son was born.
After I left my daughter's biological father (long story short, he became violent after I got pregnant saying that due to the baby, i'd be stuck with him... that didn't last long at all), Dave came to my rescue.
He's the one that moved out all of my stuff from the other place.
He took care of me during the remainder of my pregnancy...
And then a few months after I had the baby, he asked me back out.
He now helps take care of both of the children, and now that Bela's starting to talk... she calls him 'Dad'.
With everything that's happened between he and I, I'm pretty sure fate does exist.
Then (2003):
Now (200
