How it all started

Bestie and I in the line to go watch the movie the Fast and the Furious 5:
Bestie:"We are gonna see those marked bodies of Vin Diesel and the Rock!"
Me:"Vin Diesel is hot and the Rock with those lines, that big neck, those arms..."
Bestie:"Seeing them fight together is gonna be porn for women"
Me:"Stop! I'm cold and got nothing to go back home too to warm me up unlike you"
Bestie:"Shut up sangana but yes. Hmmm, it hasn't been long..."
Me:"*sigh*...your not helping".
Bestie:"all we have to do is find somebody to fulfill your needs but have fun, no complications, hmmmmm"
Me:"Who? I don't nor want surprises. I've had enough and even though it would be fun to have a friend with benefits, I'm not sure I want to risk it".
Bestie:"I know who would be perfect. My bf knows him better than I do but he is a nice and funny guy. He changed. He went to the army and when he came back, he was different and I like who he is".
Me:....."Ok"
Bestie:"I'm gonna show you a pic on facebook. See, he is good looking".
Me:"his cute, I guess.  I don't know about this."
Bestie:"Here is what we can do. We plan an outing. Not a date date. I will tell him that I have a friend that wants to hang and meet and we just all go so if you guys hit it off, great. If you guys don't, no big deal. What you think?"
Me:............."Ok...I guess. I'm gonna get a bit nervous but it works. I can go on with that".
I decide to go Bohemian Night at the university I used to study and to my surprised, I was later told he was coming! It was so cold that night. I was glad I dressed nice, my hair looked nice, had makeup....but boy was I nervous!!!! Bestie and her bf with his cousin and two of his friends came.  One of them was "the guy". He was sitting behind me with his back at me. He had arrived for a while and he still hadn't said hi. I was cold, anxious and nervous and let me say that that's such a bad combination. I remember bestie looking me with big eyes and telling me:"this is not a date". I tried to keep my cool but I couldn't help it.  It was as if everyone, including the world was conspiring against me.  I didn't want nothing serious.  I wasn't sure I was ready for that.  I was scared silly and was trying not to show it.  I mean, even though it wasn't a date but everyone seemed to be acting as if it were because all eyes were on us and everybody hovered like satellites, I couldn't help but feel like this moment would define my life forever. He made the first approach. He had a big smile. Not only did he look nice but he seemed nice and that is something I can't forget.  I was quite almost all night. But there was one moment that marked that night and my heart.  I thought it only happened in movies because it happened exactly as a romantic scene played in live screen.  The difference was that it was my life and it was happening there and then.  I was just in my friends apartment, sitting in the couch across from him and I looked up.  I studied him for what seemed more than a few minutes and right there and then, he looks at me and smiles.  I couldn't help but smile back and I certainly couldn't stop looking at him.  Not only did my heart flutter, my cheeks burned, my body ached and I felt nothing but his stare on me and mine on his....I knew that I liked him and the thought scared me because I could feel that my heart was gonna ached for him even more than I would imagine. Even now my body trembles at the thought.  I can remember his touch, his voice and how I fell for him.
