Matthew and I didn't last long after that, but that was okay, I knew that there were plenty of other fish in the sea. I learned quickly that giving myself away physically often got me more attention and longer relationships then when I hadn't been willing to do so. I didn't let myself pay any attention to the fact that the type of guys my new tactics got me were more often than not of an indecent sort.

And this was the attitude with which I approached my freshman year at Valdosta State University and my fellow student, athlete David Thomson. Everyone on the school campus at least knew who he was, although before the party that changed both of our lives forever I couldn't have told you whether or not he knew my name or if I was just another one of the cheerleaders to him. But by the morning following the party, he knew me in ways that had nothing to do with my moniker.

I don't remember much about that night exactly – like I said before, alcohol has a way of helping with that, and I was definitely drunk – but I do remember the lights. Someone had managed to find a strobe light and string it up, adding to the already wild atmosphere. Because of the lights, David was bathed in a blue glow of sorts when he approached me. I can't really recall what he said to me or how it happened exactly, and I probably wouldn't want to even if I could remember. All I know for absolute certain about that night with him is that it did happen, and it changed both of our lives forever.


The story gets better, I promise! Please tell me what you think and stay tuned for the next chapter! Thanks! And, you know what? For the record, I think that we all might as well abolish the plan that I had for updates.:)
