We have better plans for her: Jenny

Jenny is my next guest blogger. She and I have been friends for a really long time. And when I say really long...I mean nearly 15 years long. In high school, I always wanted to be like Jenny. She had a way of making me feel comfortable even when I felt completely out of my comfort zone. She was also my first college roommate. I wish we could've stayed together longer, but she had to go home and marry her hunk of a husband. I adore Shawn almost as much as I do Jenny. He is her match in every way. 

 

My super hot crush has always been sort of a punk when it comes to flirting. The first time he held my hand I was on a date with another boy. This other boy and I went out to dinner then to a single adult dance. At the dance Shawn (my crush) asked me to dance. My date wasn’t to happy about that but he wasn’t asking me, so his loss! After the dance my sisters had a bunch of people over to watch a movie, my date and Shawn included. I sat next to my date on the couch and Shawn quickly squished next to me and the person to my other side, not my date’s side. He kept trying to hold my hand, put his arm around me, whatever he could to try and make me squirm and make my date give him the look of death. The funny part was, they were friends and my date was spending the night at his house that night. I told you, he was kind of a punk. Shawn said he was afraid to go to sleep that night. They wrestled on the trampoline and didn’t really talk about it.

Shawn felt bad and came and apologized to me the next morning. He didn’t really feel that bad though. The next weekend he asked me out. We doubled with my sister and her guy friend. We went and saw a movie. Before we left my mom said, don’t you dare let that boy kiss you, he has a bet with all his friends to see who can kiss you first. 

I told my sister before we left to be sure and not leave us alone!! Well it wasn’t to hard. My WHOLE ENTIRE FAMILY showed up at the movie and watched it a few rows behind us. Wow. Well after the movie we went and got ice cream and I swear, as soon as she possibly could, my sister found any reason at all to leave us alone. My family was now all in bed, my sister taking her date home and now Shawn and I all alone on the couch. Thank goodness the phone rang. My mom quickly answered it in the other room though. Ahhh. Shawn was not going to be stopped. He laid one right on me. It was sweet though, I’m not gonna lie, I loved every minute.

Later I found out that my mom was in the other room talking to the other boy (from last weeks date) He was a recent break up. Shawn is not at all the jealous type. He thinks of it more as a contest he won. He is so proud of this story. He loves when we are around other boys I kissed or dated and he gets to brag that he is the one that ended up with me. But really ladies, look at him. I’m the winner!

Also, my mom loves him. When he left on his mission, I started dating other boys and she was not happy about it. She actually told one boy, "We have better plans for her." Shawn is the favorite child in my family, and rightfully so. He is quite a catch.
