It was amazing that you could spend years with somebody and feel such strong feelings toward them, and they never pick up on them.
Edward was the best. He wasn't like the other jocks that were jerks. He was smart, funny, beautiful, and sweet. He was my best friend.
But that was it. I wanted more from Edward. He was the person who entertained my thoughts at night and throughout the day. He came to me for advice, and I helped him whenever he asked me to help him.
He was also dating the cheer caption, Tanya. Every school has one; a complete bitch who couldn't get a clue if it was right in front of her, blinking arrows pointing at it, "Over here!"
But regardless, she was caption of the cheerleading team, and he was caption of the football team. I mean, of course they would be together.
Of course.
I had contemplated trying out for the cheerleading team, but if you knew me you would know I couldn't even jump without breaking my ankle. I was clumsy, average, blushed a lot, and was completely undeserving of The Edward Cullen.
But there was something about a lost cause that you couldn't give up on. Something with someone being as untouchable as a distant diamond sky.
