We'd been in the same homeroom together since 7th grade. His name started with G and mine with S. We sat alphabetically and did not meet until our senior year due to working on a schol play. Since I had gotten larengitis after long hours building sets and designing makeup and costumes they put me on usher duty with him so I didn't have to speak. It wasn't for several more year that we dated. It wasn't until he went into the military we got married.
