Our First Date

Today is the two year anniversary of our first date. So, in honor...I thought I'd share the story of our first date and a little about how we came to be. It's going to be awkward and long.
You have been warned.

Cam and I never really "met" until our first date. But that's a whole other story for another day.

Cameron picked me up for our date and opened my door. We rode in his jeep to the blue light church, where we met up with mitch and megan to follow them to (stupid) hollywood connections. I laughed when cam told us where we were going, but he blamed mitch and apologized. We talked nervously on the way. In his jeep, I could smell his cologne and was so nervous. We got to HC and headed inside. There I met megan and chatted with mitch. We decided to play mini golf. I was so nervous. Cam was an awful mini golfer (and still is) but he made for some good laughs. Miraculously, on the last shot, he made a hole and one...and still will not let me forget it. We decided to ride some of the kiddie rides and ended up squished together on "the dragon coaster." again...I was so nervous. We made fun of the punk kids and the strange workers, including a man that shouted "yee haw" each time he started the ride. We devolped inside jokes. After enough playing we decided to grab some ice cream. In line, cameron turned to me and asked "what flavor is Lemon-sort of?" I laughed...you mean lemon sorbet? (I still won't let him live that one down) We laughed and cam spilled ice cream on his blue striped sweater, which made us laugh more. After we had had enough HC we headed to megan's house for a movie...and here's where it gets awkward. There were two couches in her basement and a love sac bean bag. Megan wanted to show me her room and when I got back to the basement cam was sitting on a couch, but mitch decided to be funny and sit next to cam to cuddle. I stood there awkwardly then sat on the love sac. Megan sat on the other couch and called mitch over. So there we were...mitch & megan on a couch. Cameron on a couch. and me on the love sac. haha and we stayed that way for half the movie...so awkward. Cameron eventually mustered up the courage to sit next to me in the love sac and ease the awkwardness...but it was bad. Haha. Around 11:30 or so cam and I left and he took me home. It was snowing and so perfect. He walked me to my doorstep and hugged me like a perfect gentle man. and then he left.

Our first date was so awkward and yet, when we look back on it we can't help but laugh. We were awkward and nervous but some how we both over came that awkwardness and fell in love. Perhaps it wasn't the most romantic date or story, but it is ours and it was just perfect. I love that boy.
