Lilly's THOUGHTS
Why is it that girls have to go and fall for someone that they know that there's no way that they can have? Why? Just answer me that. Cuz that's what I always do. Seriously. Every time.
Like in fifth grade there was this guy, Will, but of course I wasn't allowed to like him because my friend Cynthia liked him. And then in seventh grade, I really liked this guy Ben, and he liked me too. But I couldn't go out with him when he asked me because this friend of my friend Shelly's had broken up with him, like, three months before. And then awhile ago there was Jake Ryan, but we all know where that went. He and Miley are together now, and you so aren't allowed to like your best friend's boyfriend. And now, well…
I should fully make a list of the guys I can't have, since I keep falling for them. Stupid Lilly. Stupid, stupid Lilly.
THE OFFICIAL LIST OF GUYS THAT I, LILLY TRUSCOTT, AM NOT ALLOWED TO LIKE (in accordance with social standing and the Girl Code)
Your friends' boyfriends. (total no-no)
Your best friend's crush (Girl Code rule numero, like…1 or 2)
The mega-popular guy at school ( -cough-Jake-cough-)
Actually, where I am socially, I'm not allowed to like any semi/somewhat/anywhere-near popular guy.
Your friends' exs. (for a respectable amount of time. How long 'respectable' is depends on how nice your friend is.)
And then, perhaps worst of all (since it seems to happen a lot on TV and it never ends well). A totally BAD thing to happen to anyone. Something that's just unacceptable (on tv, at least) and happening to me, meaning I can't be with him, which is why I hate this list a whole lot. (…yes, I did put extra sugar in my breakfast cereal today.)
So, number 6 on the list of guys I can't have is…
Your best friend's brother
Yes, that's right. I, Lilly Truscott, have fallen for someone totally weird, and sorta disturbing, and funny, and cute…and the one guy I most definitely can't have.
The one, the only…
Jackson Stewart.
How I could've fallen for Jackson is beyond me. Sometimes I wish we had more control over the people we crush on. Because, I would not have chosen to like Jackson. Not in a million years…
I think.
