Proud

"I was nominated for a class award," Ryan just suddenly announced.

"Really?" I responded, looking up from my computer.  Pride began to swell in my chest.  Of course, I was assuming that he was nominated for something like "The Hottest" or "Looks Best in a Dress" or "Prince Charming."

But I should've known.

"I'm nominated for The Quietest," he said, a hint of amusement in his voice, "along with two Asian students who don't speak English.  In fact, I've never heard either of them say a single word."

Laughing, we went to the online ballot page.

Get this: Sixty-five percent of the class has already voted--

and Ryan is winning.

P.S.  I was always attracted to the quiet ones.  They are the most intriguing.  No wonder he was the Secret Crush of Highland High School.  I bet if UB Dental School had that category, Ryan would win.  I would vote for him.
