He seen every episode of Pokemon and Digimon AND Yu-Gi-Oh. Also, “too cool” my ass-Ian’s a fucking nerd, just like me.
Yeah he was quiet, but that was only because he was kind of introverted, and he doesn’t like talking about himself. The whole time I’d known him I’d just assumed that he had a ton of great friends that he didn’t talk about. Eventually I decided that it was time to stop being afraid of Ian and try to be friends with him.Ībout a year after I really started hanging out with Ian, there was a revelatory moment where I realized that I was Ian’s best friend. Ian and I ended up seeing each other a lot. I assumed he was out of my friend league because he was really handsome-not ripped, just genetically blessed in the facial department-and seemed really smart and cool, so nerdy me assumed that he was super popular. Ian and I were in the same English class in high school.

Sometimes when you’re looking for love, it can be in the place where you least expect it.
