I don't remember when I was first introduced to Science.
When I try to think back, it seems as though we've just always been friends. Throughout high school, I always enjoyed the classes we took together, and after school, we often hung out to do our homework together and watch TV.
During college, too, we ended up taking many of the same classes. We always sought each other out. She was a great lab partner: so meticulous and careful in her methodology, and I always felt comfortable around her. We spent many late nights together alone in labs cutting up over sily inside jokes we shared together.
I dated Art for a while, but I think everyone knew we were an odd match. She was so elusive for me, and I'm not sure that we were ever really compatible. I always thought she was so beautiful, but I never quite understood her, and I don't think she ever really got me, either.
I think, in the end, I may have loved the idea of her more than the reality...but I'm still not sure I understand our relationship. She always had a knack for breaking my heart.
Often, after a break-up with Art, I would call up Science to see what she was up to. She was always there for me. I remember many late nights spent sharing pizza and a box of donuts together as we critiqued cheesy movies.
No, I don't think Science is 'cute'. Why do you ask?
I guess I've never really thought of her on those terms. We've always just been a good friends, you know?
