It was to ask her to our final grade prom/formal. We were in the same friends group and I was being egged on by them to ask her for months; because they knew I& #39;d liked her for years. In the end when I grew a pair to do it (cont.) https://twitter.com/b0dys0da/status/1252843920288960512">https://twitter.com/b0dys0da/...

I was sitting behind her in Chemistry. Staring at her for the entire lesson, internally dying at the thought of doing something so out of character for me. Please note my extreme introvert personality. Right so, the lesson ends. I make sure to keep up with her.
And I can see she& #39;s walking a little fast. With the weirdest voice-crack, I let out, "Hey -----, you got a minute? Just wanted to ask you something". She& #39;s like, "Yeah Sam what& #39;s up?". At this point, I wait for classmates to go away.
Meanwhile I& #39;m like suffocating in those few seconds while she stares at me. The most beautiful eyes and smile in my direction. She had this spark of anticipation, like she knew but didn& #39;t at the same time.
I& #39;m just thinking I was being idiotic for even thinking I had a chance.

Anyway, classmates are out of the way. We are in front of the lockers near our lab. I muster up the tiniest amount of courage I can stir up. But it wasn& #39;t enough, I panicked and in the last second pull out a A4 piece of paper, I start pretending to read what I wanted to say.
And this is so funny to think about now, but I legit tried to pull of my own low budget Kal Ho Naa Ho. Gawd I was so cringe.
Idk why my first thought was to resort to this awful idea, it was so bad. But hey, it is the comedic value in this story now.

Ok so, I start reading (blabbering).
"Hey, so idk how to word this and I hope I& #39;m not putting you in an uncomfortable position. But being friends for years, just know that I am asking this from a genuine place of respect and love for you and our.."
And before I could continue..

She steals the paper of my hand and was like, "throw that away silly, I know there& #39;s nothing on there. Of course I& #39;ll go with you dummy."
And in that moment, there was this indescribable weight lifted off my lungs. I still remember it clear as day. And I respond, "oh, really?!".

She goes, "you know I want to stupid". And I& #39;m like, "oh, yeah, of course". Insert any vadivelu confused meme reaction.
We start moving together to our common room, and she starts telling the other girls in our group about. I just pretend like nothing happened.

But news spreads like a wildfire obviously. And before I knew it, all the boys jump on me and tackle me to the floor. Start smothering me with cheers and digs. Such a peak mood.
What was the most frightening experience of my life at that point, turned out as the most fruitful.
