To begin with, I'll have to dig back almost 13 years in time. My little sister and I have a 9 (almost 10) year age gap between us. She had a best friend named Brittany from age 8 - 12. They had many sleepovers at our house, and for awhile I was a regular babysitter for this little girl. Ohhhhhh, what a sweet, cute little girl! I remeber comming home from a date or a party at some ungodly hour, sis was already crashed but Brit was still wide awake. She would come into my room and ask if she could watch tv with me. I would smile, pat the matress and say "sure girlie! Jump on up." She loved brushing my hair too. That was also her main source of entertainment when I would babysit.
I lived at home off and on until I was about 21, after that I only saw Brit a couple of times when I had to meet up with sis for something-or-another and she tagged along. Then sis moved to Fl when she was 13, and I never saw Brit again......
Flash forward 8 years to this past Saturday. I was shopping at Target with my best friend (Trish) who is 4 months pg with her second child, already showing like she's 10 months, needs new maternity clothes...Trish and I started arguing about smoking during pregnancy (which she does constantly, she was about to go outside and light up again and I laid into her). I raised my voice ever so slightly, called her an ugly name, and then a huge crash in the next isle startles the hell out of both of us. I hear someone yelling "Beth! Is that you? Beth???" *sounds of footsteps running toward us* This person rounds the corner, running toward us- gawd! almost rabid like. By now, Trish has forgotten her urge to smoke and we're taking in the sight of this young girl. Buzz cut, muscle shirt, tattoos up and down every limb, ??? # piercings. Okay, I see them all the time in this city but didn't know I knew any of 'em.
I can't believe Trish recognized her first! She was like, "Brittany?....." Of course when I realized that was who this was, by jaw hit the floor (literally). Brit turned to give Trish a quick hug, then turned to me, tears in her eyes, and nearly suffocated me for several minutes. I was glad to see her again, but I was soooo at a loss for words. That was okay b/c Brit rambled on enough for all three of us. Her 21st b-day party is next Saturday, and somehow Trish and I ended up promising to make an appearance. Brit continued hugging me off and on - at one point Trish finally pried her off of me and said "Okay, I gotta go home and pee". I finally made it out of there, only after I gave Brit my number and swore on my mother's grave that I would be at her party.
Now to last night, phone call from sis...I mentioned the reaquaintance, and described everything including her appearance. Amazingly sis was not surprised. She did say that she had no idea at the time, but that Brit had always been obsessed...asking when I'd be home whenever she slept over, what I was doing, what I liked, if I ever said anything about her - basically I was Brit's favorite topic of discussion, to the point sometimes where sis would get annoyed...she said "I always assumed that Brit sort of idolized you or something. But hindsight is 20/20 I guess. I believe you're her first love!"...I'm totally floored at this point. I said "No *freaking* wayyyyy! Gawd, y'all were like...NINE!!!". She just giggled.
Anyway, I gave sis Brit's number, so there's no telling where that discussion will lead. I'm not really looking forward to this party on Saturday, but at least I have Trish there to fake some contractions if things get too wierd (like I said, she looks like she's about to pop).
I have a feeling things are about to get interesting in my neck of the woods again. So, I guess that concludes "Baby Dykes", part one. Story will resume later.....

Oh I am looking very forward to the rest of this story! Ya know, the nurse is right ~ she's not jail bait anymore. And nine years is not that big of an age difference once you've both passed 18.........
I can't wait for part 2!

Just because she used to have a crush on you doesn't mean she's looking for anything now. she may have just been intrigued and didn't know why. just don't look too hard at the situation and miss the opportunity to have a young friend or little sister. it could be fun!
