I'm sure you are wondering about the name by now. You see, this guy had a thing with fish. He had this huge aquarium that was at least 6 feet long and it was filled with all sorts of fishes. He even ordered some online so he could have exotic types in his tank. He eventually out grew that tank and had to add another one to his house that was at least three feet long, and he also built a moat in his back yard so that he could put fishes in there. Seriously, I couldn't make this shit up. A moat? Who builds a moat?
This guy was also not along the lines of my "type", just like Puff. He was a freaking bean pole and blond. No offense to blonds out there but I am not really attracted to many blond guys. I am also going to sound like a gold digger when I say this, but the guy had money. Or at least that is how he portrayed himself. He had to have the best of the best. He had two houses. One he rented (to another ex of mine oddly enough) and the one he lived in. He also had three cars. Three. They were all bright freaking yellow. A yellow truck, a yellow mustang and some other yellow car that he later traded in for a yellow bullet bike. He really had a thing for things. He pretty much thought that unless you had three cars, a shit load of exotic fish, and whatever else you didn't have anything really. I also have no idea if he actually had money or if he was just ass deep in debt. I know he bought stuff and sold it on eBay a lot and that is where he got some of his money, but I can't confirm that he actually was in the black and not in the red.
At first, things were great with Aqua man. He was really nice, wanted to spend time with me, and just seemed like a good guy. We had been dating a couple of months and I was eventually taken out to his mom's house in Roberts to meet her and his million brothers and sisters. I couldn't even tell you how many he actually had. They started to run together because they looked so similar that it was creepy. They seemed nice enough, but apparently his mom couldn't get over the fact that he was no longer with his previous girlfriend and that I didn't go to church. Go figure. Everything that she talked about had some kind of reference to her and I was compared to her about how I dressed, how old I was, how I did my hair,and that she went to church every Sunday. Awkward. Needless to say I wanted to get out of there ASAP. At least Aqua man was nice and stood up for me a little and let his mom know he wasn't really wanting to be with his ex anymore.
After what seemed like forever we eventually made our way back to his place to watch a movie. There we were just cuddling on the couch when out of no where he drops a bomb. I'm going to remind you that we only had been dating like 2 months at this point. He threw out the L word. Uh. Hmm. Thanks? That was my response. In return he said, "Well I think it's time I take you home. If you don't know that you love me by now then I don't think you will ever love me." So me being the 16 year old that I was, I cried on the way to my house and the next two days I was depressed and tried to talk him into getting back together. No luck. He still stuck with what he said and that I should know that I love him or not and that I was wasting his time if I didn't. He said we could stay friends but we weren't getting back together. I was still talking to him towards the end of that school year and start of the summer. My mom, for whatever reason, sees him out somewhere and invites him over to our house for the 4th of July. This was kind of awkward since I had started talking to the person that I will mention later on. So instead of spending the 4th with a guy I was interested in, I had to spend it with my ex because I am too nice to un invite him. He was at the house and I had left my phone laying around so he decided to snoop and saw that I was talking to someone else. He then proceeded to tell me I was a player and a fake and that he knew he shouldn't have come. I didn't want you there dude, but whatever. He left after that and I pretty much ceased conversation with him at that point.
Now let's shoot ahead about 1 1/2 years....
Don't worry about all the details in that time frame. That will be covered in the next chapter. After the debris cleared from the explosion I moved on and found someone else. I was very happy at this point in time and didn't want anything else. Out of the blue, Aqua man contacts me. He wants to be "friends" and hang out with me. I discussed this with Captain Douchebag (awesome name, I know) and he was fine with it. Well, that should have just been avoided all together. By the time I was done hanging out with him I kind of felt like a hooker. He offered me things to get back together with him. He would take me on a trip, he would help me get a new car, he would buy me jewelry. I know this is a material world, but I am not a material girl. I told him that I was happy with who I was with and there wasn't anything he could offer me to leave.
This whole situation ends up biting me in the ass later on. Captain Douchebag ends up living in his rental house (after we split mind you) and Aqua man finds out who he is. He then tells the Captain this whole story that I was all over him while he was away at boot camp and that I kissed him and blah blah blah. Nope. Didn't happen. He refused to believe me even though he hates Aqua man and knows first hand what a moron he is. He still thinks to this day that all that happened.
Ok so this one wasn't very entertaining, but I promise I will make up for it. I was just filing in my timeline. I'll get to better stuff, just you wait.
