Here it goes:

It all started at Camp Huyana.

We were both counselors there, our first time working at the camp for the both of us. Sure we knew who each other were, but Jack and I have never interacted before.

He's part of that "Popular Crowd" not that I'm not, I'm more of the quieter ones, and I'm in band, he's in choir. He's admired by many, many girls. A few guys have asked me out, I'm well liked, but apparently a little "too closed". Some comments I have gotten from people behind my back…

Anyway…

Here's more of the story:

"C'mon guys," I said tiredly, as I rushed 4th graders into the Cafeteria where we ate, quickly getting the kids to sit down as soon as possible.

They chatted away in their seats, all the little girls talking about Justin Bieber and Rachel vs. Quinn on Glee. Seconds before I was going to sit down before the announcements & lunch started, I looked around, seeing the rest of the camp and what was going on.

Until I met a pair of light, striking blue eyes, at least 20 feet away at a boys table.

Oh my God.

Jack Carson.

One of the hottest boys at our school.

One of the most popular boys at our school.

The star football player at our school.

The boy with the most gorgeous blue eyes at our school…

Was looking at me.

AND HE WORKS AT THIS CAMP!

With me, from MY school?

I watched him watch me, I'm pretty sure he knew I saw him stare me down with his sparkly ocean eyes and content facial expression.

I tucked my short, almost shoulder length bleach blonde hair behind my ear, thanking myself for straightening it and putting on makeup today. I knew I looked extra good…thanks self.

His eyes tilted downwards at me and back up, and then, he turned his head, crossing his arms and laying them softly on the wooden table, returning to his campers. A joyous, open grin came to life as he watched his boys tease each other.

It meant nothing, I thought as I turned back to my table as well and the lunch

It can't mean anything, I thought for the last time, reassuring and shaking my head to myself.

I mean…it shouldn't, right?

Flashback OVER.

"Riss, take a look over there." Kayla said as she pointed to the table across from ours.

"What?" I asked, as I finished off the rest of my grapes.

"Take a look over there." she said, nodding her head towards the couple.

Then I saw it.

Was that really Jack and Lexie? I thought as I looked in bewilderment as I saw one of the most popular guys in our school by a quieter girl, arms straight out and pressed against the table the held him up. They both talked in hushed tones, and Lexie wouldn't look at him.

But what was it in Jack's eyes? What was it that shined in them?

It was pure adoration. Pure adoration for Lexie Forman.

Jack had gone out with many, many girls in the past. Mainly for hook-ups and whatever else there was. Sure he cared for the other girls well-being. But this kind of look in his eyes? We've never seen it before, none of us. Almost like protection, with a look on his face that says, "I'm here to take care of you, your mine and I love you."

Well...something like that.

"Hah, they won't last." Kayla said, as she scoffed a laugh and continued,

"I mean, why would they? They're totally not meant for each other." she finished as she chewed the beige bagel in her mouth.

When Kayla wasn't looking, I looked at them, and in the back of my mind, I felt the benefit of the doubt for what Kayla had said about the unlikely pair and a little voice in my mind whispered, "I hope for you both."
