The boy she never knew

Back in high school, he was impossible to miss. The outgoing football player with the easy charm, the big laugh, and the kind of presence that seemed to light up every hallway. She, on the other hand, blended into the background-the quiet, shy girl who kept to herself, watching the world from the safety of her notebooks, lost in her own mind. She thought he'd never even noticed her. Years later, their paths cross again. He remembers her but She barely remembered what is name was. He's still bold, still larger than life, and maybe a little too confident for his own good. She's still guarded, still hesitant to let anyone close. But somehow, the boy she never knew is determined to prove that sometimes the loudest hearts and the quietest souls are meant to find each other.
