Forbidden Love

Ruined by Alison

Damen

It's been a week since I first met Ever and I feel like I've known her forever. I know everything about her. How much she adores her parents, she's smart, she's funny, she's sassy though, but I think it's cute, and she's completely in love with this band, One Direction. I think everything she does is cute. In all of my 568 years of living, not once have I ever met somebody like her. I - I really like her and I've been pondering over whether I should ask her out or not, but I've decided already. 

I'm asking her out today, when I meet her outside of her house this morning to walk to school together. As I'm walking towards Ever's front door, I feel the butterflies building up in my stomach and my knees start getting weak. I need to calm down or else I won't be able to do what I really want to do today, make Ever mine. I ring the doorbell and she opens the door. I'm breathless, she looks beautiful this morning with her cute summer dress and sandals. I chuckle to myself, I remember those sandals. 

She notices me laughing and I could tell I made her insecure when she asks, "What's so funny? Do I have something in my teeth? Is my hair standing up? Tell me, now!" 

"No, nothing's funny. You look stunning. It's just that I remember those 'stupid sandals'. Do you?" I ask. 

She starts laughing too and says, "Oh, yeah. I definitely remember them." 

She walks out the door and I greet her with a hug. Oh God, she smells so good, like roses. I need to ask her out today. With looks and a personality like hers, I bet she gets asked out every day. I just hope she says yes. We're walking down the sidewalk and we're just goofing off, shoving each other. Suddenly, I push her too far and she ends up falling on someone's front lawn.

She bursts out laughing and I start laughing too as I outstretch my hand to pick her up. This is my chance. 

I hug her and say, "Oh my God, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to, beautiful." 

I see her blush and I know I've got to ask her now or this moment will just be blown. 

"I've been meaning to ask you something, Ever," I say. 

"Oh, yeah? And what's that thing?" she asks. 

I start with, "Listen, I.. Since the first day I met you - "

"Oh my God, hey Damen!" I hear Allyson's voice say. 

Oh my gosh, really Allyson? You had to come now? I look at Ever and I see it in her eyes, the moment is gone. She's angry, I can tell by the look on her face. 

"Oh, did I just interrupt something? Should I leave?" she asks. 

"No, you're fine. You could stay. I was just leaving anyways," Ever says. "I'll see you later, Damen," is all I get as she walks away. I really hate Allyson at this point.
