He was a boy; I was a girl, what more is there to tell?
He had always been the boy across the street, the one I wanted more than anything but we wouldn't notice me. I mean, why would he? I was just the girl next door. I was a year younger. I had nothing special about me. I was the girl that had nothing going for her except maybe her body on some days. He was the perfect blonde boy that played soccer and was my version of Michelangelo's David. He wasn't too thin and he certainly wasn't fat and he had amazing blonde hair that fell around his breathtaking blue eyes and there aren't even enough words to say how cute he was.
But either way, we're both gone- and here's our story…
It started when Rosalie was spending the night. It was about one in the morning when I got a text from my boyfriend, Steven, saying Jasper liked her. I told her immediately and she was disgusted. She'd always been in to the more popular guys, not the quiet ones like I liked but how could she turn down such a perfect guy?
I started texting Jasper to persuade him that Rose would eventually come around and like him… but we had a lot of similarities. We liked the same music and held the same straight edge values. I fell face first in love with the boy- but then Rose turned him down, once again, and he said something I never thought I'd hear someone say in real life. He wanted to be dead. The man I loved was threatening to jump off a bridge and take his life.
I talked Rosalie in to giving him a chance. That lasted about a day. Actually, it was exactly a day. And then she broke up with him and he was even more depressed than before. I spilled my guts to him that night, telling him I had always liked him since before I could remember and never hoped to even talk to him because he was amazing and I was just average. He then said that he had liked me too- since before he could remember.
The next day, he told me he loved me. I told him I couldn't love him because I had boyfriend. Well, not for long. Two days later, I told Jasper I loved him and two hours after that, I broke up with Steven. Best choice of my life.
Jasper and I kept talking and that weekend, he asked me out. Of course I said yes. But this isn't where my story ends. Far from it…
