Elena: my life stories (short stories) | book 1 | ✔️

How i met my boyfriend

So I was going to the special olympics to another group home to play a game of cornhole where you throw the bean beg into a hole in a wooden board. Nothing special there but then when of my friends from this group home started talking to me............chatting me up! Little did I know that it was going to be love at first site! His name is Curt! Anyway were were talking and hardly playing any of the game! When I was being talked to I was smitten for the first time in my life! Well I was smitten before in high school but that guy turned out to be a cheater.....enough said! So I was starting to thing of what it would be like to be in love with someone who doesn't cheat! Something I haven't thought of in a long time.....you see I was going from one online relationship to another neither were successful!
Was nearing the age of the 35 at that time and I wasn't going to think I found love at all! But there he was!
When I decided to have my picture taken with my friend....that kind got my brain going in on direction but one! I could not sleep that night I was thinking about that chat!

Soon I was just coming into the door to my group home from work when I saw a work come up to me and ask if I knew a guy named Curt and that he was bringing a Tim hortons ice cap! So we talked on the porch sipping on our ice caps (coffee), I remeber as it was stinking out out too! We talked and we started to have a good time! He asked me what my favourite restaurant was and I said the red fox! That is a restaurant that had a delicious menu!
Then he asked if I would like to go to the red fox with him for a lunch!
What I said was yes!
I remember that I had nachos and a shrimp cargo to eat and started to talking to him aaagain! That was when I decided I did not just like him, I was in love with you!

So I write a letter on a postcard to him and it said:

"I just wanted to say that I like (love) you, and that is a good thing! Love Elena!"

Fast forward to a week I was playing baseball at the special Olympics and found him, coming up to me and asking me to be his girl friend; I though I received a bump on the head and was in a concussion but I pinched my self and he asked me again - "would like to be my girl friend!"
Another week later I was kissed for the first time in my life! As this was my first serious kiss! That being said I had seen him many times when time at a butterfly exhibit with live butterflies and he compared the butterflies to me saying that I was prettier! At that time I was going to basketball for special Olympics and the next time I went to the basketball I saw him giving me a gift, again thinking I hit my head....but a work saw this and said "how nice!"
It was more the
A nice it is romantic......
What he gave me was socks with poppies that said your so goddamn pretty and a bracelet!
And on Valentine's Day he gave me my first chocolate! They're look like something out of wink as chocolate factory!

This is June 2024, we met on July 2023....it has been a good year. The funny part is that I am tattooed and pierced and he isn't! Kind of like not giving a crap about the books cover, right!
