a/n: wow! this project is lasting forever! i wonder if Mr. mersel will make me do this project next school year? i will probably continue it anyway if im not done. my class is really distracting me. and we frequently go out on tangents. this chapter will probably take forever to type.

"Giver!" Jonas cried.

"yes Jonas?" giver replied.

"did everything go to plan?" Jonas asked.

"for the most part." he said

"what do you mean?" Jonas asked.

"well someone caught me and i was stabbed, but i gave him the memory of frostbite and he ran off." The Giver replied.

"someone get a medic!" Jonas yelled. a man in a white coat came out and put The Giver on a stretcher. Jonas ran to get rosemary from her home.

"Rosemary! the giver is here but he is injured!" Jonas cried. rosemary got a look of pure joy on her face. they raced to the hospital.

"i am his daughter, and this is my brother." was rosemary's reply when they said family only.

"go on in." said the lady at the desk

"Giver!" cried Jonas.

"Ezekiel!" cried rosemary.

"Rosemary? but you are dead. i watched you die on the screen." The Giver said confused.

"ah but our founder Abraham came up with a solution. so i am very much alive and so are you.

that night Jonas was lying in bed. many thoughts were flying through his head. The Giver, all the difference he never saw before in humans, Ari, Ari. (thx to maximum ride for giving me the idea for that quote). he saw a book on the shelf it said Twilight the reason it intrigued him was the bright red apple on the cover. he thought it was about another receiver like him. he read the book through and through. it had nothing to do with receivers. he did not understand the use of the apple. he reread only finding one unimportant scenario with an apple. he went to bed confused.

the next day Giver was out of the hospital. Jonas gave him a brief visit before going to visit Ari. whenever he thought of her his heart went wild. he could not stop thinking about her. he also felt the stirrings towards her. those thoughts were driving him crazy, but he loved it. her pale smooth skin, her fiery red hair, her hazel brown eyes. he sighed in contentment. he made it to her home.

"hey Joe! how are you doing?" asked Ari.

"good. what are you listening to?" asked Jonas.

"oh its music i like. wanna here?" asked Ari.

"OK." Jonas said.

"listen to this. it may be more your style." Ari said

We were both young when I first saw you

I close my eyes, and the flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a balcony in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say, "Hello"
Little did I know

That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you, "Please don't go, " and I said

Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say "Yes"

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet, 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while

'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don't go and I said

Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say "Yes"
Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story baby just say "Yes"
Oh, oh

I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town, and I said

Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring

And said "Marry me Juliet
You'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story baby just say 'Yes'"

Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Because we were both young when I first saw you

"wow" Jonas exclaimed.

"good isn't it?" Ari asked

"yes." Jonas said. the truth is he loved it. wow love. such a strong word. and that was when he realized the truth.

he loved her
