Journal Entry # 1 Saturday 2018
My love for Briar was faint now. I didn't move on, but I tried to forget him. While I wasn't doing any 'make your ex fall for you again' spells, I was still doing some 'Attract your soulmate' spells and subliminals. I still had the prewriting of the poem from seventh grade. I frowned and hid it once. It was a reminder. Everything was a reminder of him. A few times I could've sworn I saw him in the halls. That was always disproven anytime I seen a whole list of all of the freshmen. I looked down, almost disappointed. But one memory always haunted my mind, and that was when I would try to get rid of his memory all together.

All the opposing houses were going across the street from SNM, at WaveNet Intermediate (WNIS). I looked around. There on the stoop of a door on the other side of the fence, down a ways, was a girl. She had on a pink outfit. Briar was by her side. Although we weren't a thing anymore, and never would be, I felt a little jealous. The girl had her head in her hands. It looked like Briar was trying to comfort her, but he seemed a little out of place; like he wasn't sure what to do in that situation. What the hell? The girl is crying and you don't know what to do?? I bit my lip in annoyance. I wanted to step in.. but it wasn't my place, and I wasn't near them.

I bit my lip, annoyed. We wouldn't have been a match anyways. He didn't know what to do with a girl balling her eyes out, there in front of him.. I frowned. He never held the door for me when we were dating, I bet he didn't with her either. I stomped off to my next class.
