"I LIKE SHINY THINGS BUT I'D MARRY YOU WITH PAPER RINGS." Ophelia sings softly, looking down at the paper infront of her.
After the events of last night, she suddenly had the inspiration for a new song.
The song obviously is about Ricky, there is no denying in that. Everyone who would listen to the lyric she just wrote down would know it is about him.
They know about the paper rings they made in kindergarten, and how important the concept of it is to them.
How they always would be there for each other, forever. Living together for the rest of their lifes.
Even though they don't wear the rings outside, not wanting to risk loaing them or it somehow gets damaged.
They always keep them safe in their room, it is an reminder for them. Knowing to have something so special to them, made by the other.
"That's right, you're the one I want." When Ophelia was 13, she experienced her first crush on no other then Ricky Bowen.
She had always kept it to herself though, she was scared she would ruin their friendship by revealing those feelings to them.
Richard Bowen is probably the best thing that ever happened to her, and she would do anything to prevent losing him.
Even if that means hiding those feelings for him.
After a while she got over her feelings for him, he started dating Nini, and she just ignored those feelings.
But now she is started to wonder if she actually got over those feelings in the first place, and didn't just convince herself she got over them.
She knows that when she saw him and Nini hold hand, hug or steal a kiss from each other she got that feeling in her stomach.
Sge had always blamed it kn her period, seeing she had got it for the first time, but deep down she always knew that wasn't true.
"I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this."
She never planned on it too happen, falling for Ricky just happened. One day those feelings just appeared.
She had the feeling he liked her aswell, the small things he did like grabbing her hand, forehead kisses he knew she liked, the looks given from across the room.
She always though there was something between them and that he felt it too, till he started dating Nini.
Everywhere she looks she is reminded of the boy and her feelings.
In paper rings." Those paper things which are right now layin on her desk, Both from kindergarten and now.
In picture frames." Her room is covered by photo's remininding her of him. Photo's of them in kindergarten till Hugh school. Photo's with friends, Photo 's he took. It all led back to him someway.
In dirty dreams. She dreamt of him, of them. Of how their first kiss would be, their wedding.
The truth is those feelings had always been there, and they never left. She jjst pretended they were non excisted.
"Darling, you're the one I want. She just wants to be able to call him mine.
