STORY TIME!!!

So a few days ago I went to this place (it shall remain unknown to you all lol) with the entire high school and at about 10 pm, we were told to climb on this HUGE truck thingy! One of my friends (his name shall remain anonymous, so let's call him Jared lol) was about to climb up when he asked if I wanted to get on before him (he's a gentleman lol XD). We were two of the last few people to get on (there were about 40 something people I think. It was the freshman and sophomores at my school). I said sure, but told him I sucked at climbing stuff and might fall (it was really tall and there's no steps or ladder), so this caused him to step back a bit. I did get on the 7-8 foot tall truck without falling luckily. By now, the truck was PACKED. There was hardly any room left (also, some people were wearing backpacks. Like me. lol) but there were still about five people, Jared being one of them. He climbed up right after me. I was now squished between gracescribit, one of the other girls in my class, one of the other guys in my class (it's the same guy who wrote those poems just in case you wanted to know lol. There's a part of the story about him so let's called him Lucas haha.), this sophomore girl, and Jared. Jared was right in front of me. Oh, and I should tell you that WE ARE STANDING IN THE TRUCK. THERE'S NO ROOF AND NO SEATS. JUST LOW SIDES AND THE CART THINGY!!! Though I didn't think it would be too bad... At first... We were all squished, I quote from Jared, "We're like sardines in a can!" I said, "This is so claustrophobic!" That caused him to very slightly smirk and ask, "Oh? You have a problem with tight spaces?" jokingly as he moved closer to me, squishing me between everyone more, actually making physical contact. It was quite funny actually. Wait... DON'T TAKE THAT THE WRONG WAY!! Lol. I don't actually have claustrophobia, but I just say that whenever I'm in a tight space. Anywho, we're finally all on the truck and we're just standing there. Suddenly, the driver decided to move forward about a foot really quickly. That's when I realized that this would not be safe. At all. I flew forward, crashing into Jared. I quickly apologized, then stood back up. We soon then started to go on this trail in the truck (btw, I have like no sense of balance lol). Almost the entire time, I kept almost falling. Because Jared was right in front of me, he was the person I kept clinging onto. I almost fell backwards many times, but I didn't because I grabbed Jared's shoulders so many times, plus gracescribit kept me from falling backwards. That was kinda awkward, clinging onto him, but what was even more awkward was when I fell forward. It didn't happen as often, but it was more awkward. I would fall on top of him. It was just so awkward, I was apologizing so many times (I think I apologized like 50 times lol). I was holding onto him, I'd be looking over his shoulder, and he was just like, "Oh, hi Elaina!" He's a nice guy, optimistic and outgoing. Okay, here's the part about Lucas. At one point, this sophomore (who just so happened to hit me in the shoulder with a football) behind Lucas fell, pushing Lucas right into me. Plus, at that point, I was falling on Jared again. So then I was squished between Jared and Lucas. How fun... Lol. At one point I accidentally squished the sophomore girl next to me. She was right on the outside of everyone, so she was squished between me and the side of the truck. But yeah, I was squished against Jared for the majority of the 10-20 minute ride. It was by far one of the most awkward and embarrassing moments of my life. I apologized once again once we all got off, then offered to buy him food. He said that he didn't need any, but thanked me for the offer. Things were kinda awkward between us for like the next 15 mins, but now we act like it never happened.

So, that's my super awkward/funny story for you.

Here's a question: Have you ever had a really awkward moment with someone of the opposite gender?

Anywho, there's a story! Ciao!
