I'd fancied David from the moment I laid eyes on him. There was something different about him, something special, but I'd never managed to pluck up the courage to talk to him. After all, we had nothing in common other than both being 18 and being at the same college. He was popular but not one of those popular guys who're really arrogant. He didn't even realise just how popular he was, it was a breath of fresh air from all the wannabe's who were just trying to sleep with as many girls as they could and competing with their friends..
David was my ideal guy, I've never been so physically attracted to anyone. He was only a little bit taller than me but even through his clothes you could tell he was really toned and he had a really nice, all over tan. His eyes were amazing, an emerald green colour and they sparkled every time he smiled. And what can I say about his smile? Well, it could light up an entire room, seriously. But yet there was still a mysterious element to him and I'd have given anything to explore that.
But even more attractive that all this was his personality. David was incredibly smart and we shared a passion for knowledge. I had most of my lessons with him which was great except he was a total distraction considering I could never take my eyes off him but I didn't mind that. He had the most amazing sense of humour, very similar to my own. He was a polite, caring guy who couldn't abide racism, sexism etc and was really open minded. There was absolutely nothing I didn't like about him.
I'd always wanted to get to know him better, to be in with a chance of him liking me as more than a friend but I knew he was out of my league. I'm about 5"3 with brown hair just below my shoulders and brown eyes. There's nothing massively special about my figure really, I'm not fat, nor am I particularly thin but I'm constantly complimented on my DD breasts and my ass so there must be something that other people see.
One day I decided that enough was enough, I'd lusted after David for long enough and it was time to do something about it. My best chance was maths class as he sat just behind me and because our class was particularly small there was rarely anyone else sat close except his friend who he sat next to. I sat on my own in Maths because I was in a class full of boys and had always been too shy to talk to them properly, it was a downfall of mine. Anyway, maths came around that day and what luck, David's friend was away so it was just me and him. I was about to turn around and ask if I could borrow his ruler (what an opening line!) when I felt a tap on my back. I turned round so swiftly I almost fell off my chair but fortunately he didn't notice.
"Hey Kel," his voice almost made me melt. "I was wondering if you could help me with 3b, I don't really understand it."
And that was the end of life as I knew it.
I helped him with his equation and then we made small talk for a while and as the bell went I almost floated out of the room with a smile on my face, before turning around just in time to see him wave at me.
The next day I was sat in my usual seat when he came over and asked if anyone was sitting next to me. Of course there wasn't and he, David actually wanted to sit next to me, how could I refuse? I'll never forget that lesson. It started off pretty awkward, just the odd sentence passed between us, mainly about the work we were supposed to be doing although looking back now it was clear that both of us were too nervous and excited to concentrate on anything other than each other. Things soon changed though and by the end of the lesson David and I were chatting like we'd known each other for years. He was a real interesting guy; an only child who was exceptionally good at maths, played rugby and loved drumming. Everything he said made him sound even more perfect for me and I knew I had to get this guy.
"Would you like to get some coffee or something this weekend?" I said tentatively, holding my breath until I got a reply.
"I'd love to but I can't really afford to go out this weekend, I'm saving up for a car,, sorry." Then seeing the disappointed look on my face, he added, "but you could always come over to my house for coffee, maybe Saturday afternoon?"
"Sure, that sounds great, erm I'll see you then."
I walked off blushing but happier than I'd been for a long time. This guy was going to be mine, he had to be, and he was just perfect for me. David was everything I looked for in a guy and I wasn't about to let him go. At least half the female population of the college fancied him and quite a few considerably older women, so I had competition but I never really noticed him talking to many other girls so I was quietly confident.
By Friday night I was so excited I could hardly control myself but more than that I was scared. Was it a date? I'd never had a date before, I'd never kissed a guy or anything. It sounds pathetic for an eighteen year old girl I know but I'd had confidence issues and I'd just never found a guy I was particularly interested in. Saturday morning came and I must have spent at least half the morning trying on and discarding every outfit I owned. Finally I came to my senses. I was going to David's for coffee he wasn't going to care what I was wearing. I opted for a pair of black fitted jeans and fairly low cut top with a grey hoodie. Not too casual, not too dressy, not too slutty. But just in case anything should happen I put my favourite underwear set on. It was a black and grey pinstripe with little red bows where the straps joined to the bra and at the sides of the g-string.
Finally it was the afternoon and I made my way over to David's. It turned out he lived fairly close but as I approached his street my heart leapt. I knew I recognized the street name. I used to walk down here with my sister when we were younger and pretend we lived in the big posh houses down here and were rich. David's house was no exception, it might as well have been called a mansion but as I knocked on the door I obviously looked more confident than I felt.
David opened the door with a smile, gave me a brief hug and then invited me in, taking my coat and closing the door behind me. We'd made ourselves comfortable in the living room with cups of coffee and a few biscuits when his mum came in.
"Hey, are you having fun? David, your Dad and I are going out for a meal with some friends and then on to see a show, we might book into a hotel for the night so don't wait up for us. Feel free to stay as long as you wait Kel, we've got plenty of spare rooms if you want to stay the night."
I didn't know what to say to that so I just thanked her and blushed slightly. Me, stay the night here? My parents wouldn't mind, they've always been pretty relaxed about what I did but I doubted David would be so keen, I hardly know the guy!
