We met at school. Instantly when my eyes met hers I wanted to marry her. It sounds silly thinking back on it but, hey, we were only 12 at the time.

We hung out all the time, me, her and Chaer, though on some days it would be just me and Yeji. I savoured every second I got to be alone with her.

Turned out she felt the very same way. 2 weeks after she'd moved to our school she made the first move, and said she'd been crushing on me since she'd first layed eyes on me. I blushed and everything, and so did she, then she asked me out. I said yes, obviously.

We were together for 3 years. We broke up about 6 months ago now? Yeah well something like that anyway I didn't really keep track of time back then. Anyway, I suppose you'd like to know how we were together that long and why we broke up if we'd been together that long. Let's start with how our relationship was.

Both her and I were mature for our age at 12, unlike the rest of people in our class. So we would do things like a 16 year old couple; we'd have long make out sessions (though no touching until 13), deep conversations, proper dates (in McDonald's - upgraded to KFC though at 14) and so much more. We'd still always hang out with Chaeryeong at break and lunch though because we didn't want her to feel left out.

Our relationship starting going downhill on my 15th birthday. This was approx 2 months before we split. I hadn't mentioned it at all coming up to the day, and neither did she so I got all excited thinking she might have planned something special. I was wrong.

Turns out she'd forgotten my birthday. That hurt. Like, REALLY hurt. Chaer came round and I told her Yeji had forgotten, but she reassured me she wouldn't have, Yeji was just busy with personal problems.

Confronted her the next day about this at school. Told her she forgotten my birthday. I was angry about that, because she was my GIRLFRIEND and we'd been together so long. I knew her better then anyone, or so I thought.

The thing I was angrier about though was Yeji had told Chaeryeong she was struggling at home but didn't tell me. Yeji told her friend about her problems but not her girlfriend of which they'd been together for nearly 3 years!!

She shouted at me saying I 'wouldn't understand' and Chaeryeong does, and how she's 'so much more supportive' then I am. Shouted back at her demanding she tell me what was going on, but she just shook her head and rolled her eyes, repeatedly muttering about how I don't understand.

We didn't talk for a whole month after that. Maybe it was because it was the holidays or something else. I saw Chaer on the weekends, and she would ask me how things were going with Yeji. I'd shrug and just say 'we're over' and find a different subject to talk about. It was killing me inside though, when Chaeryeong told me she had been seeing Yeji most days of the holidays, just saying she wanted to be 'there for a friend'. Maybe try being there for your best friend and spending less time with her girlfriend!

Obviously when I said 'we're over' to Chaeryeong about Yeji and I she thought I seriously meant it. A month later she came to me and confessed she liked Yeji, and would I be fine if they gave dating a go. I asked Chaeryeong what Yeji said about this, and she said 2 weeks ago Yeji confessed she liked her. That broke my heart. Broke it so much I just lied and nodded, saying I'd be fine if they went out. But I wasn't fine. Yeji and I never spoke to each other about breaking up. She never mentioned it.

I wondered how long this had been going on behind my back. So the next day I asked Chaeryeong, and simply just told her to not lie to me, and just be honest. She sighed and said they started dating a month before she asked if I was okay with it. I didn't blame Chaeryeong, though, she was oblivious to the fact me and Yeji were still officially going out, but Yeji, Yeji I was beyond furious with.

The next day at school I see them both waiting at our usual spot. Yeji wasn't in yesterday. Chaer goes off to get a snack, leaving Yeji and I alone. The anger in me becomes too great.

"So you and Chaeryeong are going out?!?!" I burst out. She looks over at me.

"Yeah; you gotta problem with that?" She asks.

I cannot BELIEVE this bitch!! "Not with THAT per-say, the fact we never even broke up!!!"

She just stares at me. "I texted you."

I glare at her menacingly. "I told Chaer to tell you my new number." When she doesn't reply, I carry on. "And do you not know it's cowardly to dump someone over text? But even more cowardly to not say anything at all because you're going out with your girlfriend's best friend."

"Ex." Yeji says lazily looking my way. "Ex girlfriend."

I guess I was depressed after that. I had to see nurse every day (that's how she knows my name) to get medication because my parents didn't know how ill I was. I never talk to Yeji unless I really have to, but I decided I couldn't loose the bestest friend a girl can have - Chaeryeong. She seemed pretty relieved to be honest.

After coming out the nurse's office, I bump into someone. "Ooof." I say as the force pushes me to the floor against the wall. I look up, and see an angel.

"Sorry! You okay?" The angel asks. I nod dazedly. "Uhhh... Do you wanna get up?" She asks. I nod again, speechless by the angel's beauty. She holds out her hand and I take it humbly, loving the feel of her silky smooth skin. "I'm Yuna, Shin Yuna." The angel, now named Yuna, smiles. "I'm R-Ryujin, Sh-Shin Ryujin." I stutter. She smiles and walks into nurse's office, leaving me, well, love struck, I guess.

Sorry for the longer chapter! Hope you enjoyed <3
