My freshman year of high school I was in the school play. I wasn't even supposed to be in it, I was just the understudy. But the whiny girl who was originally cast quit, so I was suddenly ushered as the lead role. She was a sophomore. She played a background character, "Woman #1". How fitting, I think. Not everyone knows her name. Not everyone knows how perfect she is.

Anyways, we're in this UIL play together. It's small, only 6 cast members. We all become really close pretty fast. Her and I didn't talk that much, not at first. But we were in prose & poetry UIL together, and would hang out during meets. We were simply acquaintances. I never thought we would be anything more.
