She was the one of the prettiest girl I'd ever seen.. she was going into a clothing store while Boody and I were walking back from the water springs in the east. There was a pretty girl at the springs too but she had nothing on this one. We stopped and stared, she noticed and kept on looking, she laughed, we laughed, we walked off and thought we'd never see her again.

Walking with Boody we couldn't stop talking about this dark beauty who had noticed us, we saw her again and followed, but she dissappeared, we were convinced we'd seen a ghost. Hanging out with two of Boody's girl-friends she walked past again and sat behind us.

"Go talk to her"

"Nah, she's too pretty"

"Well at least ask her for a smoke"

"Ok!"

When I approached hey eyes lit up, she was waiting for us to say something, she didn't have anymore smokes but we could share one. We invited her to smoke a doob with us, she was more than happy to. The three of us walked to Elias's to get onebut he wasn't home. We sat and talked, she was 22 and had a career in the military but had desserted and couldnt return or she's have to go to jail for 6 months, she liked raves, and was stuck in Ixtepec with her boyfriend because she had no money to leave.

We walked back to the hangout near Juancho's house, they were going to the water springs, we'd already been but we'd go again as long as Vianey would too. She was up for it, we drank some Mezcal and took off in the darkness, singing from the back of the van to the open air and stars above us.

At the springs music was pumped out of car sound systems, Vianey showed me how to dance, everyone cheered us on, it was embarrassing but we kept going, I asked her to walk with me. By the spring we sat and talked then I took a quick dip. Sitting with her was magic, we listened to music and I asked if I could kiss her, she smiled and we kissed, then kissed some more, but it was time to leave so we got back on the van and rode back into the darkness. The wind was blowing and I was grinning.

I walked her home, she was worried we'd be seen together, we made plans to meet the day after tomorrow while her boyfriend was at work.
