Will we last?

How we met.

Hey yall, so um this is my first book and I haven't really figured out what my plot is going to be but we'll find out along the way so dont worry the book gets off to an awkward start, it will get better and ill edit along the way.

The picture up there is how the male love interest Jay looks like (Keith Powers)

Another important thing is the female mc who is the narrator will go by Y/N, I repeat the female mc is the narrator so dont get confused, but anyways enjoy the first chapter.

There he was, Jay Williams, African American guy with short hair, sharp jawline, lean built figure and a towering height of 6"2. I didn't really think much of him expect for the fact that I found him attractive but that was all.

I first moved there to live with my father after things didnt work out with my mom on the other side of the country, I left all my friends and school to run away from my past. It was my sophomore year and we were in same class which is where is first saw him. Over my first few weeks I somehow found myself in his friend group, "the popular group", I mean we were always in the same circle but we never really talked but to be fair I was really shy especially around new people.

The pandemic however pushed us closer and we became actual friends, at first I had absolutely no romantic feelings towards him as I liked his friend and he liked this other girl in the group. In my mind I was definitely not his type seeing with his previous history of girls so I didnt even bother putting in effort with him.

The next semester however, his feelings for the girl proved to be false but I didn't believe that because he was down bad for her and well because I still liked his friend, but by the end of the school year, we started talking more and became close friends.

The next year, a little into the second semester I started having a little crush on him by then I was over his friend, I never really pursued him as I thought he didn't like me and obviously thought it would ruin the friendship, but by the end of the semester I started getting vibes that he liked me too, we started hanging out more often and we would hug ALOT and to clarify we NEVER use to hug before this, but I thought I was tripping because why me? I mean a lot of guys found me attractive as I was around 5"1- 5"3 with a curvy shape, brown small almond shaped eyes with nice lips and curly hair, but the problem was he always went for white girls so what made him change his mind? So I decided that maybe I was just imagining things so I left it go.

But as we spent more and more time together, my crush became stronger so I decided to take the next step. Now hear me out, throughout our whole friendship we had never exchanged numbers so I built up the courage to ask him to save my number because he kinda sucked at asking girls out face to face so I wanted to give him that opportunity and he saved it. I was so excited, my dumbass waited less than a day for him to text me and when he finally did he took his shot. Everything after that was a bliss just waiting to be written..

This is my first book/story so now harsh comments will be tolerated however constructive criticism will be warmly welcome. The MC will be Y/N. The story line gets more interesting as we go so dont desperate dear children🧎🏽‍♀️.
