Old Faces and Friends

So I saw my best guy friend from high school last night. I haven't seen him since  August when we went to lunch together because he just had gotten home from his mission. We facebooked briefly back in October, but essentially, we haven't really talked to or seen each other in a good two years. He doesn't interact with anyone on Facebook unless it concerns his mission so I kinda didn't even try to interact with him on there.
 But anyways, last night. 
So I'm going to this YSA conference next week and Elder Holland is going to be speaking to us on the first night. So they needed a choir to sing on that night, which me and Danica totally wanted to be on. We went to the practice and all day, I had a feeling that he would be there. But I would push it aside because I just didn't know how I would react to seeing him. 
He didn't notice me throughout the practice, which was a good thing because then I could focus on singing (they want us to memorize it alllllll blahhhh in like only a week and three practices). 
But after the practice, Danica dragged me over to where he was. He stood there talking to Danica when all of the sudden he noticed me. He stopped mid sentence and hugged me, practically yelling my name with excitement that I wasn't expecting whatsoever. It was weird to hug him, partially because I hardly ever hug people anymore, let alone boys. 
He then spent the rest of the time just focusing on me when others in the group that we were standing with were talking. I suddenly felt so self conscience. This boy that hasn't paid any attention to me for the last 5 months despite my somewhat minimal efforts was just enveloped by my precense. Then when it was time to leave, it turns out he parked right next to me. He demanded another hug and then whispered to me that it was so good to see me again. 

And just like that all those feelings I had in high school for him, good and bad, came rushing back. 

I don't know what to think of this. Like at all. I'll be seeing him for the next, at least week, and he said that we were going to get together to catch up. And it doesn't help that "On My Own" just started to play on pandora. Blah. I'll let you know.
