~ Prologue ~
"Our love will never end."
Jennifer blushed a deep shade of red as she looked up to see him staring at her again, brushing a piece of hair out of her eyes, she looked back down at her book and started to write again.
"He loves you." Brianna whispered, her eyes sparkling at the thought of her best friend actually going out with someone instead of being stuck inside revising all the time. Jennifer shook her head, laughing a little at the thought of one of the most popular boys in the school actually wanting to go out with her.
"Leave me alone." She whispered back, trying to get on with her work, ignoring the glee in her best friends face as she stared over at Jamie. She knew he would never make the move, he wouldn't been seen dead with the soccer star and nerd of the school.
"Jennifer?" He grinned at her, flashing his perfect white teeth as the bell rang, signalling the end of class. She found herself blushing again as he said her name, putting her head down in hope he wouldn't see.
"I was wondering if you could help with that Maths test we have next week? I have been looking for someone to revise with me for ages and I was trying to get the guts to ask you.." He turned a light shade of pink, running his hand through his hair as she looked up at him, wondering if this was going to be some cruel trick.
"Sure, I am free tonight if you want to...?" She bit her lip, hoping she had made the right choice to trust him, smiling as he nodded,
"Your house or mine?" He grinned, causing her heart to flutter as she looked into his deep, blue eyes,
"Will mine be okay, I can give you the address..." She looked through her back for a pen before he tapped her shoulder,
"It's okay, I know where you live."
"You do?"
"Yes, everyone knows where the vicar lives." She blushed, realizing he was right,
"Sorry.." She mumbled, looking down at the floor, wondering what to say to him next,
"I should get going, I have Chemistry with Mr Gordon, you know what he is like." He rolled his eyes and she laughed, nodding,
"Hey, what's your next class?" He asked before walking off,
"History with Mrs James."
"I will walk you there, I don't mind being a little bit late." Jennifer found herself giggling as he held out his arm for her, hesitating before taking it. She grinned as she saw the looks from all the other girls as they walked through the corridors, knowing he didn't have to walk her to lesson, after all History was the opposite side of the building from Chemistry.
"Thank you." She said, letting go of his arm,
"How about we start straight after school? Give us some time to get to know each other as well. I could meet you by the gates..." Jennifer nodded, a little too enthusiastically before walking into the classroom, glad to see the teacher hadn't arrived yet,
"What did he want?" Brianna almost ran to her, her eyes flashing with the words 'gossip', Jennifer smiled,
"He wanted to know if I would tutor him for the Maths test next week, and then he walked me here despite his classroom being on the other side of the school. And then he said he wants to get to know me after school, so he is meeting me by the gates to walk me home!" She took a deep breath, considering pinching herself to confirm this wasn't a dream.
"True love!" Brianna giggled,
"Shut up! We're only fourteen." Jennifer blushed, shaking her head at her best friend, putting her head down in her book as the teacher walked in,
"Doesn't mean he isn't the one." Brianna said in the most serious tone she had ever heard from her friend, she nodded and shrugged,
"I guess, but nothing has happened yet so don't get ahead of yourself."
"But it might happen, you want him to ask you out." Jennifer rolled her eyes,
"Listen in class for once." She whispered, noticing the looks of disapproval they were getting from the teacher.
"Fine, but I will phone you at exactly ten tonight, make sure you're there with all the details." Jennifer nodded, rolling her eyes, biting her lip to stop herself from giggling with excitement.

A/N As you may have guessed, this is set in JJ's teenage years, also before she got the nickname JJ. This story will also go into the future, while she is at the BAU, where I will be using JJ, so if anything it's to help y'all recognise the difference between the two times.
Please review and tell me if this is worth continuing or not!
Thank you for reading.
