Carol was always such a tomboy that it seemed like me and the and rest of the guys were her only friends. All the other girls had their little groups, but Carol was part of ours', and for the most part she blended right in. A short little girl with dirty brown hair and hazel eyes, often shadowed with mud, she may as well have been named Richard.
As we all grew older some of us separated off, but even then Carol stayed a part of the group. It wasn't until high school that I realized I didn't know Carol anymore. Of course that didn't really hit hard until I began noticing her again in a new way.
It was the beginning of my sophomore year in high school when I began catching glimpses of a slim, beautifully proportioned girl. I smiled at my luck when I found out that I had English with her. Carol would sit up in the front of the class and I would sit a few seats back just watching her as the teacher droned on. Her long dark brown hair could hold my gaze for hours. The way it flowed over her delicate shoulders and down her smooth back was enough to give me something to hide under my desk.
Strangely, though she was polite enough, whenever I tried to make conversation with her she seemed distant and uninterested, as if we hadn't been friends at all in years past. And thus did I fall into obsession over Carol.
During the rest of high school I dated a few other girls, but nothing serious ever developed. It wasn't for lack of trying on their part either, it was simply that I had my eyes elsewhere. No matter what I did I couldn't get her out of my mind. It seemed like every time I wasn't looking I would be heading up the stairs only to find myself right behind Carol, who often seemed to be giggling with this or that guy. I couldn't even help myself. In crowded groups of people I found myself unable to tear my eyes away from the way her tight butt shifted back and forth as she made her way up the stairs.
I think even worse than her legs and ass, her front had stolen my very soul. Her previously pudgy face, often covered with a layer of dust and mud, had been completely transformed. Clean smooth skin surrounded her bright eyes and cheery smile. Just a little lower, her breasts went beyond perfect. On the few sweltering hot days our school enjoyed, Carol donned a some tops which will stay in my memory forever. Tightly outlining her breasts in bright colors of green, red, and blue, her nipples seemed to be continuously hard against the spandex material. Though I had had no such experience, I often found myself dreaming of cupping those beautiful breasts and finding that they each fit perfectly into my large hands. I would gently begin to massage both at the same time, only to wake and find myself groping the air.
If she noticed how much I stared at her she was too polite to comment, either that or she didn't care, but my friends were kind enough to label me the stalker which I didn't really mind. I knew it was strange how obsessed I was with this girl who wasn't interested in the least, when I could be doing things with other girls. I couldn't change it though. Carol was my waking dream.
Senior year came around and I began to feel a little anxious. After this Carol would be gone and so would I for that matter, and I was still in the look but don't touch stage. As the year flew by and things didn't seem to be looking any better so far as Carol was concerned I grew pretty glum. I felt distant from all that was happening around me. At the same time I was deciding where I was to go to college I could step back and wonder what I was really doing and why I wanted to go to college at all.
