A Cocky Nerd and an Angsty Drama Geek: Part Two

We next met when I was 16 years old. He says all he remembers is the combat boots. I loved those work boots and wore them everyday to work. He says at the time he thought they were a sign that at best I was a feminist. We worked at an elder law office, both of us were file clerks after school and during school breaks. I worked because I needed my own money, he worked because his parents wanted him to have a job. He worked about 5 hours a week during the school year, and about 8 hours a week during school breaks.

I spent the entire first summer we worked together trying to get him fired.
