Jim

Well, Jim or, as Katie and I like to call him, "Jimmy," is Katie's very gorgeous cousin. He's one of the sexiest guys I have ever met. Jim is just an all around sexy guy. He's handsome, talented, kind, caring, and did I mention sexy? I have not met anyone who didn't fall instantly in love with him. He is so passionate. I remember my first day I was at his house, Jim and his brother were acting out a scene from Romeo and Juliet . You could just see it in his every move. I couldn't keep my eyes off of him. He was so intriguing.

Jim is one of those people you want to be next to. He inspires you to do more, take chances, and have no regrets. Just one touch from him and you are hooked. He makes you feel wanted. The first night I got to his house I was with Katie all day and, when he got there, I was leaning on the Island. He put his hand on my shoulder and I remember it felt like there was so much emotion behind it. That was probably because I had a huge crush on him. But, I am sure any female would agree with me if he touched them. Now, this wasn't a sexual touch at all. It was more like a "hello, I missed you." OK, well, I am going to start from the day I met him.

Katie and I were going to pick him up from the airport. Jim was flying up to get Katie and they were going to drive across two states to get to his house. Katie was going to stay the summer with him to look at colleges. Katie's mom decided she would drive us to the airport and then drive around until we came out. So, Katie and I went in and waited. I had only seen a picture of him when he was young so I didn't know what he looked like. While we were sitting there, I looked up and walking off the plane was this incredibly sexy guy in a p-coat. It turns out, he started walking right up to us. It was her cousin. Good lord Katie's family can make very sexy kids. One thing I really liked about Jimmy was that we were instantly comfortable enough with each other to give the other a hard time. I am a very sarcastic person and he was right there giving it out along with me. Well, if you have never met me, you don't know that I look much younger then I am. Well, Jim thought I was 3 or 4 years younger than I was. So, when he noticed I had tattoos on my wrist and that I was 19 and not 16, I think he was interested in that. Being that he's in his mid 20's, me being 19 means we were closer in age than he thought. I am not at all sure what that meant to him. I mean, I know I instantly liked him but I had no idea how he felt about me. I had a great time with him while he was here. Jim stayed for 2 days. The night before Katie and Jim headed out, Jim and I stayed up until about 5 or 6 in the morning. We both agreed that I was not a typical 19-year-old girl, since there was no way he could stay up talking with a typical one for that long. There was definitely an attraction between us but I would really be stupid to fall for him as he was leaving and, thus, would never work out. The distance was too much.

I made a trip out to see Katie and Jimmy that summer. There, I met Katie's other cousin, Jason, also very cute. Well, when I described Jason to Dirk, he thought, out of the two, I would have been more attracted to Jason. But, no, I think Jim is much more attractive. I remember when I told my brother I liked Jimmy, Dirk was like "huh?" I guess Jim isn't the type of guy I am usually attracted to, but then again I have never met anyone like Jimmy.

I just thought Jim was so interesting. One night while I was up with Jim, he took out his guitar and started playing and telling me about it. I have been raised around music and I can't get enough of it. Jimmy talked for over an hour about how he taught himself how to play. I was interested in the conversation the whole time. I had never met anyone that taught themselves how to play. And, of course, him being musical didn't at all make it any easier not to fall for him.

Well, I left at the end of the week knowing that we weren't right for each other. We could be great friends and I know if I lived by him I would really want to be with him. But I don't think he could be with me. And I don't even know if he would want to be.

Jimmy, I want to thank you for all the great times and for making me think a little higher of myself. You are amazing and I know you will one day find your Juliet. But, don't forget about that very hot affair you promised we will have once a year. ;)
