You and your boyfriend were two sides of the same coin. You both have similar personalities and opinions, but the only difference was that he was popular and you, well, were more the mean looking girl who faded into the background.

It's not exactly your fault, when everyone is divided into groups based on personality and preferences, there's always that one small group with introverts who were actually nice. You were one of the people in that group.

While Vernon on the other hand, he was the guy who everyone knew. He was the kind of guy who'd listen to music on his headphones while walking home with his friends. He was quiet, but still friendly. You never thought he'd notice you. But by some crazy miracle, he did.

Now, here you were, sitting beside him at the lunch table. Holding hands underneath it while Vernon laughed with his friends, Corian and Ivan. Once every while he'd squeeze your hand to reassure you he hadn't forgotten you were there.
