The Sound of My Heart - Intro: Being in love and psycho ex-girlfriends
God, it was a spur-of-the-moment decision to just upload everything that I've written for this (which stopped on August 27th, according to my phone -.-) and just call it the intro to the story, because truthfully idk how it'll play out. Bad planning? Meh, whatever. I haven't uploaded here in freaking ages. It started with just school and coursework taking over, but then my stepdad walked out on us and I just felt my whole world crashing down around me, considering how important he was in my life. So whilst I was sat moping in silence during school over this, my 'friend' was complaining about everything just for the sake of it and when I finally said something about it, she muttered how my problems were like nothing compared to hers. God, I hate her. Well, I think I'm finally past the stage of breaking down into tears at my laptop, and here I am posting this. So, Drew is/was the generation eight heir along with his sister. I take no ownership for Anya and the Howells or Ryan, they're all my great friend Dini's sims. Follow her on tumblr at Simsheaven!
I know this may seem weird coming from a teenage guy, but have you ever fallen in love with someone that you've never met?
I have, and it sucks.
Her name is Anya Howell, she lives in Lucky Palms. My name is Drew Goth, and I live in Sunset Valley. Not exactly the two closest places ever.
We're fifteen years old now, I'll be sixteen in a couple of months, and we've been talking through the internet since the age of ten. Sure, ten seems a little young to be talking to people on the internet, but it was a kids website. Okay, the website was Neopets. I cringe thinking back to that.
She has the most amazing hazel eyes and caramel brown hair. Let's hope that my older brother, Leonardo never sees this or else he'll never let me live it down. She's the most perfect human being that I've ever laid eyes on.
Her older brother Daryl is the same age as Leo. They're only just under two years older than us. Anya also has two younger brothers named Keenan and Nathan. I'm the middle child, how typical? My mom only wanted two kids, a boy and a girl, so I guess I kinda let her down with that. It probably explains why I'm barely fifteen months older than my sister. My younger sister, Lily-Rose is a teenage pain in the ass. She's fourteen now and is definitely closer to our brother than to me. I couldn't care less though, I can't stand her.
My parents are Brooklyn and William, and they had Leonardo somewhere between becoming engaged and getting married. We also live with our grandparents, Jordan and Alexis, Great-aunt Zoey, and her husband Caleb. Their two children, Austin and Leanne, used to live here until a few years ago. To clear up any confusion, Grandpa Jordan and Great-aunt Zoey are siblings, and my mom is Grandpa's daughter. For some reason, my dad took my mom's surname. Yep, my family is beyond confusing. It only gets worse if I go into even more detail.
Anyway, I'm writing this to vent my feelings for Anya, yet here I am talking about my family history. Way to go, Drew. She's the only one who really understands me, as cliché as it sounds. But it's true. I'm prone to freaking out over well, anything and it's driven most people away. Except her.
Sometimes it gets to bad that when I wake up I have to breathe into a paper bag. I'm also really clumsy, I'll always remember the first time that I ever skyped Anya and I tripped and fell over whilst carrying my laptop from my bed to the desk. It was so embarrassing, especially when she laughed at me. But afterward she told me that there was no shame in tripping over, it happens to everyone. Truthfully, I really don't know if Anya feels the same way that I do. Though, there have been times where I've thought that there could be some feelings for me within her. For example, about eighteen months ago I had my first girlfriend. At that time I was going through the phase of pushing my feelings for Anya to the very back of my mind.
Anyway, her name was Ryan Flowers, a girl in the grade above us. What'd I even see in her? It was obvious that Anya was jealous, what with me spending time with Ryan instead of skyping her. She soon started acting funny with me, so I confronted her about it and she just opened up and said that it was really obvious that Ryan was with me for all the wrong reasons, one of them being my money, what with me being part of Sunset Valley's richest family and all that. I just left the conversation for that night and really gave Anya's words some thought. Everything started to make sense. In our two week relationship, she'd made me buy her a pair of Ugg boots, Abercrombie shorts, and a Michael Kors wallet. And believe me, those things aren't cheap. Plus, a few months before our relationship, she tried hitting on Leonardo. He rejected her, claiming that he was gay. We soon found out that this was in fact true. Not long after that, Leo had a boyfriend, but their relationship unfortunately didn't last very long.
Anyway, I realised that Anya was right, and I ended Ryan and I's relationship later that night. I told Anya the news over Skype the next morning, and I definitely saw her breathe a sigh of relief. She then said that she was glad that I ended it before I got hurt because she really cares for me. So, maybe she does feel the same way.
But then there's the possibility of ruining what I have with my best friend by confessing my feelings. Plus, I don't know where Anya stands on online relationships.
Damn being in love with your best friend who you've never met in person really sucks.
My siblings don't know about Anya. Purely because if they did, they'd tease me relentlessly and accuse me of having a girlfriend. Let's just say that after I dumped Ryan, she went batshit and even tried smashing my third floor bedroom window as 'revenge'. Lily found her before the damage was done, and the two had a screaming match on the front lawn. So yeah, even my sister is wary of me dating again after that business.
Well, I should go before someone catches me writing this. Plus, I should message Anya soon...
Hopefully I'll get back into the swing of things soon and eventually continue with this All of Me chapter, but I'm not making promises. Geez, I sound so grumpy these days, huh?
