Flashback #2: I love Eric

I was just thinking, remembering when I actually liked Eric and he felt the same way about me.

I was at the park with my friends and he was there. He gave me his number. I didn't call.

I saw him at the park and he was flirting. I didnt think much of it.

So one night I was at the park me and my friends and he was flirting MAJORLY.
It was still kinda cold out side so I had on a jacket and my skull and bone scarf that I always wear and it was hanging outside the bottom of my jacket.
He was pulling on it.

"I thought that was a belt," he said
Then he started going in my jeans pockets (can you say free fills lol)
Of course I flirted back because I alllwwwaayyysss liked him.
So me and my friend was talking about how we be at the club.
"Brooke always doing that little roll, do yo roll for Eric," she said pretty much instigating.
"She scared of me"
"I am not scared of you"
He kept putting his fingers in my belt loops. We was all hugged up and everything.
I just wanna cry now remembering.

Like one time we were at the park. He was checking me out looking me up and down. He always say stuff like I'm skinny.
"I be back"
"Where you going?" he asked.
"I'm hungry. I'm about go home and eat a fork of spaghetti," I said joking but I was serious.
"Naw folks you need to eat more than that. Eat a couple plates."
"Whatever," I said as I walked off smiling.
I looked back giving him the "eyes"

When I came back he was driving back into the park and stuck his tongue out at me and I did it back
OMG!!! I loved that boy crazy!

After the night of flirting I felt confident enough to call him up. I think it was like the next day or a few days later or something.
I was sitting in my moms car and I called him.

"Hello," he answered.
"Hey Eric, what you doing?" I was nervous as hell.
"Nothing"
"you know who this is?" I asked already knowing the answer, no.
"naw who is this?"
"Its Brooke."
"Brooke? Where I know you from?"
"WHAT?! You dont know me now. Its Brooke," I couldn't believe my ears. What a slap in the face!
"Naw I dont remember no Brooke's," he said.
"IIght let me call you back," i hung up.

I know that did not just happen. Was what I was thinking. How could he.
He called back. I had a special ring tone for him and my heart dropped when I heard it.
I didnt answer. I was pissed. So he called again. Yea I smiling from ear to ear. He must had something he really wanted to say.

"Hello," I answered.
"Man I was just playing with you why you hang up," he said. I was sooooooooo relieved.
"I said I was gone call you back," I said knowing I was never calling back.
"What you doing?"
"Nothing. Ain't nothing to do."

I really don't remember everything that was said but I do remember this.

"Well just call me when you free"

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! the ultimate scream

"ok"

I was tooooo excited.

Soooo I saw him at the park again. His best friend was going to the store.
"Y'all want something?" his friend asked.
"Yea A bottle of Evian?" I was just shouting out stuff, "and a honey bun."
"I got a honey bun for yo ass," Eric said.
"Shut up," I said.
All day we kept saying little stuff like that to each other. I teased him about him playing basketball and he teased me about being skinny.
Can you say grade school flirting.

So I dropped my friend off at home and called him
"Why you leave us?"
"You still at the park?" he asked
"yea, and you just left us"
"You still at the park for real," he asked
"no I'm just playing, I just dropped Brittany off at home"
"What you about to do?"
"Nothing ain't nothing to do"
"yea its not nothing to do"
"that's cus you boring," i said joking
"naw yall the ones who dont drink."
"Yea I dont have to do that stuff to have fun"

and we talked and talked. I kept cracking jokes because that me! lol

"Im about to call Mike and see what he doing,"
"iight"

Oh yea
"I guess I'm about to go in the house," i said.

we kept saying stuff like that but neither one of us initiated that we should kick it. It was like we were waiting on each other to say it.
So I was driving down my block and I saw him turning the corner. If only I was a minute or two early.

Now the fairytale...or love story is over. I really like him and wanted to be with him. I really wish I coulda been his girlfriend. But now that a never happen so I'm trying to get over but I just start to remember everything. I really don't feel like typing everything that happened. I will finish one day. Eric and I always get into some type of drama together. I just wonder what the future holds.

GOD please no more bad luck, and drama, just goodness!
