This is my first post so comments and reviews are appreciated :o)

Before that fateful day I guess you could say I didn't exactly know her very well. I was a junior and she was a senior at King HIgh. She was best friends with my best friend Aiden, so technically we were fairly good friends. I always saw her and admired her but not in that sort of way. We talked sometimes but only when Aiden was around because we didnt really have a reason to talk when he wasnt around. When we saw each other we threw small smiles, waves, or "hellos" to each other. Thats just the basic info.

I saw Aiden lying on the tables with his eyes closed, headphones in his ears, and head bopping up and down. The music was so loud I could clearly hear Souljah Boy's 'Kiss Me Thru The Phone' playing.

"Aiden! Guess what!" I yelled as I yanked the headphones out of his ears.

"What the heck! What was that for? and do I wanna know what?"

"Of course Doofus...I got 3 floor tickets for the Dashboard Confessional concert tonight!!!!"

"Wait why 3?"

"Well I don't know actually. I was thinking of inviting someone else but I don't know who."

"If you're not gonna use the ticket can I invite someone cause I know they are a big fan of Dashboard Confessional."

"Sure...as long as it's not Madison. You know how much she hates me after that incident last year."

"How could I forget. haha."

"Shut up Aiden! I know some embarassing things about you too!"

"Touche. So I guess I can pick you up at around 8 tonight?"

"Yeah sure. Who are you going to invite by the way?"

"I'm not telling. It's gonna be a surprise."

"You suck Aiden. You know that right."

"Yup. I gotta get to class. Mr. D said if I'm late again he's giving me detention."

While Aiden was rushing to class I couldn't help but wonder who he was inviting tonight. I hope it was one of his hot basketball friends. Like Jesse or Matt. They are to die for. But its probably going to be 'her'. Guaranteed. Aidens been friends with her way longer then me and they always hang out. I wonder if they ever went out. It seems like they would have. But she would never go for a meathead like Aiden. All he cares about is working out and basketball.

The final bell rang and I quickly went to my porsche cayman and sped home. I wanted to look extra nice just in case Aiden brings a guy friend. I took a shower, put on a little make up, and my clothes. I was looking in the mirror and doing finishing touches before the doorbell rang. I took a final glance at the mirror and satisfied with the way I looked, I sped down the stairs and opened the door to find Aiden staring at me.

"Mom I'm going!"

"OK. Don't come home to late."

His eyes were still eyeing my body before I had to punch him in the arm to take him out of his daze.

"Wow...you look hot."

"When do I not? Can we please go now"

"Huh? Oh yeah...let's go."

"Where's you're friend?"

"She's meeting us there."

I knew he was inviting 'her.' Don't get me wrong, I like hanging out with her. It's just....I don't know. There's something about her that makes me act different then when it's just me and Aiden. When we finally arrived at the concert there she was leaning over the railing staring at the little pond below. She looked absolutely breathtaking. The way her hair fell on shoulders and framed her face. Her halter top fitted her perfectly showing off every curve. I've never really noticed this until now...but she is gorgeous.

Why was I even thinking of her this way? I can't be thinking of a girl this way. I can't be thinking she is gorgeous, breathtaking, and probably the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. She has a winsome smile that makes me wanna run up to her and kiss those soft, glossy lips. Wait, no no no no no no no no no. I'm straight and so is she. I've seen her with her boyfriends and I'm sure see has seen me with my ex-boyfriends. I have to stop thinking this.

"Hey there." she says with her angelic voice.

She leaned into me for a hug and I was shocked when she did this. It was so unexpecting and took me a couple seconds to register the closeness between us.

"Thanks for inviting me. I love Dashboard Confessional."

"Uhh...yeah no problem. Anytime."

She continued to look straight into my eyes as I did to her too. We were so caught up in a daze we didn't realize Aiden was still standing there.

He stood right next to me and waved his hand in front of my face. "Hellooooooo. Anybody home?"

We immediately jumped apart from each other but continued to look at each other.

"Yeah sorry. We kinda spaced out for a second," she said

"No kidding. First I see you walking towards us and next thing I know my two best friends are hugging and staring at each other."

I noticed she started to blush a little. A small smile spread across her face and it was just adorable.

"We better get inside. It starts in 15 min," I said.

We walked inside and found our seats just a few minutes later. We had awesome seats thanks to me of course. The stage was just a few rows in front of us and luckily there was no one sitting in front of us. She, Aiden, and I continued to have small talk that wasn't exactly important to me right now. All I could think about were 3 things. One, thank god I decided to spend extra time getting ready. Two, why am I so excited for her to be here right now? And three, Why am I having these thoughts about her?

The concert soon started and I felt her being pushed closer to me. I looked her way and saw that the stranger who sat next to her had arrived. Usually I would just move away because I don't like it when people push up next to me; but this was different. I liked the warmth that ran through my body when I felt her arm against mines. It was...comforting. It was halfway through the concert when the band decided to play, what I thought was the best song ever, 'Stolen.'

"We watch the season

Pull up its own stakes

And catch the last weekend

Of the last week

Before the gold and the glimmer have been replaced

Another sun soaked season fades away"

I turned to her and screamed "I love this song!!" loud enough so she could hear me.

"Me too! This is my all-time favorite" she replied.

I continued to stare at her for the second time in one night, but this time she wasn't staring back at me. The chorus of the song then came up.

"You have stolen my heart

You have stolen my heart"

And at this moment, I couldn't agree more.
