Introduction:
Every time I looked at her I saw something new. She always surprised me with the way she took on life and took charge. I could see her hair catching on her lip-gloss in the sort of way that I could tell it annoyed her. She eventually just gave up all together and wiped all of the lip- gloss off with a Kleenex.
The way she looked didn't even matter to me, I wouldn't have cared if she was 300 pounds, and it was her voice and her opinion that I cared about. The way she didn't care about what anyone said about her. She was so strong in her beliefs that you could mistake it for cockiness but it wasn't.
She was so much like her brothers in that way. She didn't care about rules or teachers. It didn't matter to her how many O.W.L. scores she got. I didn't even know what she wanted to be for a living but yet I had fallen in love with this beautiful girl.
Sometimes people surprise you in that way. When their ability to draw you in seems so subtle but works without a charm. Life was complete when I was around her and when I wasn't I felt empty. The worst part of loving someone was that you eventually had to tell her. I hadn't mastered that part of it yet.
