    I actually walked with my crush out to his car, and he did have a cool car. 😋 I told him. Other things we talked about was just classes and what we were going to school for; we're both in college. *SiGhS* Yah....i keep playing the scene over in my head like a hopeless nut. But it was the best 10-15 minutes of my life, lol.😭
