J and C were in my kindergarten class. All of us boys had crushes on C pretty much... well always. They "liked" each other all the way through school. She was a good girl and dated nice boys or not at all for a short time when he discovered the alure of the fabled mattressback cheerleader. They were a couple again by the end of high school. He went in the marines and she waited. He got out and they got married within a matter of weeks. That was 14 years and 3 kids ago. Their house is on the street that is exactly halfway between his parent's house and her parent's house in the small town we grew up in.
Pretty cool to think that they're 34 and have been after eachother in one way or another for 29 years.
