As is the case in most grade school crushes - it depends on who is in your class. It isn't until middle school that you switch classmates on a regular basis. And it just so happens his name was the same as the crush from first grade - only it was an entirely different Drew.
This Drew was shorter, still blonde haired/blue eyed, but shorter and without glasses. In fact, he was pretty much the class jock - but he was smart - and slightly inclined to be geeky - but she was the only one who knew that.
They weren't just classmates in Mrs. Peters class but also at CCD - the beginnings of what would become their catholic learning process (for kids who didn't go to catholic school).
All she remembers about him is that this is when their friendship started - and although she would always have a crush on him - she knew he was always out of her league. It was when she realized she wasn't the pretty girl in class. She was the girl the boys liked to play baseball with - not the ones they wanted to kiss.
