Fastest time I ran
A few years ago I fell hopelessly in love with my friend (Now onwards called X). Unfortunatly I had a boyf at the time and nothing really came of it (except a whole lot of kissing...). I eventually broke up with my boyf and promptly chased after X. By that time he'd been through a few girls himself and once I got up the courage to confess my undying love for him he had a new one. I was heartbroken. They broke up not soon after.

One day, not long after they'd broken up, I was walking home from the bus and a very old friend of mine was walking in the other direction. The last she'd heard of me was me declaring to my friends that I loved X and was going to chase after him. I told her nothing had come of it but he was now single anyway. She grabbed my mobile, called him up and promptly asked him out for me (very Year 7, but I was 18 at the time). I dropped to my knees in horror and slight curiosity, as she talked to him. He'd apparently told her he was still getting over his ex-girlfriend and told her to tell me to ask him in a month.

Next day, we were both meant to be at TAFE. I got to class early as I always did, waiting for the inevedible teasing and such. I'd finally got it under control when I heard X's voice. I freaked out, stood up and ran out of the classroom, past him (and his NEW GIRLFRIEND!!!!!) and all the way up a few flights of stairs in what seemed like a couple of seconds. For that whole class he apparently asked what was wrong with me, and people told him that I'd gone bright red and ran away for no reason.

That was the fastest I ever ran... And I thought it was horrible of him to not fess up he had a new girlfriend.

A few weeks later, after things had (of course) gone slightly pear-shaped with his new gf, we went to a friend's party, got drunk ("just like old times") and I confessed all - my undying love for him, my regret that I never dumped that boyfriend for him, that his gf was a fucking horse-faced whore who didn't deserve him... You know, all the usual stuff.

Oh yeah, and it's his birthday today
