Well, most of you already know about my love story with Rosemary Telesco. You probably know about how she went off to Maine for camp. Well, it's been six weeks since I've seen Rosemary, and today is her flight home. See, I wanted to be there, it's sorta a big day. I want to know if she loves me or not, she didn't know last time I talked to her. Thankfully, my parents started to get along again, and their whacked out love allowed me to go with Mr. and Mrs. Telesco to pick up Rosemary. We are almost there now…I see the airport!

"Ok, Gabe, we're here!"-Mrs. Telesco

I jumped out of the car. The plane couldn't land fast enough! We couldn't only be standing there for five minutes…ten minutes…fifteen minutes! That clock was way too slow, and my heart began to beat louder and louder. Could Mr. and Mrs. Telesco hear that? Finally, it was coming. The plane that carried my first love landed and I ran over to meet her. She came down the ramp with such beauty. There goes my heart again. I hope she doesn't hear that.

"Gabe?"-Rosemary

"Y-yeah. I was, you know, around."-Gabe

"Don't you live four blocks from here?"-Rosemary

What kind of statement was that? "I was around." I hate myself!

"Y-yeah, but I was…um…Anyway, how was camp?"-Gabe

I reached out to grab her bag, and she gave it to me. It had that same sweet scent of her bedroom. What was it again? Strawberry?

"Well, I had a lot of fun but I really missed you."-Rosemary

Wow! She really missed me? Was that a sign? Did she love me back?

"Yeah, I missed you too."-Gabe

"You know I have a tutor still. I don't want to go to private school."-Rosemary

"Yeah, me either. I-I mean I don't want you to go to private school."-Gabe

"I want to just throw the test. Think I should?"-Rosemary

Wow! Rosemary Telesco was going to throw her test! Sign number two baby!

"Well, I want you to stay in public school, but if you want you can ace it. You are smart enough."-Gabe

"I dunno Gabe. I want to stay in public school, all my friends are there, and you of course…"-Rosemary

Wow! She wants to stay with me. I couldn't take my eyes off of her, and I bumped into the taxi door.

"GABE!"-Rosemary

"That's the…the door."-Gabe

What a stupid remark. How could I bump into the door? I hate myself! Rosemary smiled at me and climbed into the taxi. I followed after her.

Well it's my first so go easy! Reviews please!
