Almost...But not quite

True Aggie night is supposedly a magical night for USU students where they wait in an hour long line to pair up and kiss on the A, then they can truly call themselves a true aggie. There is also a large crowd of people surrounding the A watching everyone else having their epic moment. Daynna, Lindsay and I were a few among this crowd.

There we were, minding our own business when a fellow approached us. He was a strong lad with broad shoulders and bleach blonde hair with a very enthusiastic attitude. After he mistook Daynna and Lindsay as high school students he introduced himself as Mark and asked me "So, do you wanna become a true aggie?" I politely replied "No, we were just leaving and the line is too long anyways." Then I jokingly added "Sorry Mark, I wouldn't be worth it."

He disagreed entirely. "Of course you're worth it!" he declared, then took my hand and began pulling me with him to the end of the line.

"What are you doing?!" I asked shocked. "That line is forever long! We'll be here for hours! I don't want to be here that long!" Nothing I said seemed to phase him.

"It's ok, it'll be fun! And besides, you're totally worth it." He said with complete confidence.

Without thinking, I shouted at him "YOU'RE NOT WORTH IT!"

Mark slowly turned around with his jaw dropped, he threw down my hand like it was some sort of disease. I could hear Daynna and Lindsay behind me laughing uncontrollably. "Did you hear what she said?" he yelled. "She said I wasn't worth it!" Then trying to keep his cool he said "It was nice to meet you." Then he shook my hand and was lost in the crowd.

I was surprised at myself, I'm usually not that forward but desperate times call for desperate measures and I can truthfully say, I am not a true aggie.
