My New Life 2: The Next Morning

... “And if you’d waited much longer, I thought I was going to have to ask you out.” “Why didn’t you?” “Because of what happened to you during high school.” “Yeah…” The memory of my first and only prior relationship was a bitter pill to swallow. Risha and I had been in freshman algebra together. High school had been a rough period for me. With my Tourette’s, my anxiety, and depression, I had a miserable time of it. Add to that a teenager’s hormonal fluctuations, and you get an emotional wreck. Risha had been a nice girl. She had empathy in abundance and felt bad for me. She had a different group of friends than I did, but we still talked on occasion. In the fall of my sophomore year, Risha defied the social norm and asked me out. I’m still not sure what her motivations were in asking me out. She didn't seem that interested in me as a boyfriend, but she treated me decently enough. Whether she asked me out of pity, or as a challenge from her friends, I have no idea. Whatever the reason, the ‘relationship’ brought me nothing but grief. I agreed to go out with her more out of politeness than actual interest, so it was probably doomed from the get-go. While I was flattered that she would ask me out, I had enough going on in my life.

Most teens in this situation would've been humiliated by their ex getting starting a new relationship the same day as the break up, but I was actually relieved. Being in an awkward, apathetic relationship was an unpleasant situation to say the least. After an event like that, I was in no hurry to get into the dating scene. That is until yesterday. “Yeah…” I said again, with a grimace that expressed more than my words could, “Not the best memories.” We finished eating in an awkward silence. By the time I’d finished my bowl of cereal, Clara was already done with hers. I'd had enough of the silence. I took her hand in mine and looked her seriously in the eye. “Thank you.” “For what?” Clara asked. “Thanks for waiting. I know I’m not the most observant guy, and I’m definitely not smooth with the ladies.” I smiled at my own self deprecation. “But I don’t know if anything could’ve made me happier than I am right now.” I leaned forward and kissed her on the forehead as she suddenly shivered. Probably cold from being naked, I figured. “I- I,” Clara stuttered. I was amazed to see how red her face got as she blushed. She took a deep breath, swallowed, and said, “Thank you, Felix.” “You know, you’re ...
