 I always thought my prince charming would just come up to me one day. But it wasn't like that at all. Reality hit me hard at the age of fourteen.

______________________________

I sighed as I looked down at my notebook, full of doodles of unrealistic love stories.I closed my note book and gently put it back in my drawer full of unsent love letters to my future prince.

"When will I experience love, or will I be forever alone?" I muttered to myself, as I sighed again. My life was so boring, there was nothing exciting about it.

I leaned back in my chair,as I let myself doze off in to a beautiful dream...or could it be a nightmare?

Hm . . . I wonder what he'd say when I confess, I thought to myself. Oh this is so exciting.

I smiled to myself as I saw Luke walk through the door, but my smile quickly faded when I saw a girl beside him. 

Luke glanced at me for a moment but quickly turned back to the girl he was walking with, well.. lets just say this got me extemely irritated. " Ermm...hey Luke .. " I said loudly, purposely trying to steal his attention away from that girl. " What? " he mouthed with an annoyed expression on his face. My heart ached a bit, but I'm not about to get crushed.. not yet that is. 

" Hey... could you get away from him " I asked a bit too loudly, with a ting of annoyance in my voice. " Luke.. do you know that... plain looking girl..? "  The girl said, and now that I'm actually looking at her... I have to admit she actually looked.. pretty, I then realized what she said, and looked to Luke with an expression clearly saying " Of course you know me " I was hoping for him to say that he knew me, and all, but instead he said " Wait what!? Her? Of course not ". 

" Yeah, Luke wouldn't talk to someone as plain and ugly looking as .... " She eyed me up and down, and qucikly added " Her.. " and pointed at me as if I was something disgusting. They both laughed and walked away. My heart was torn up, I know I should've been strong but... I don't know what's wrong with me. 

Luke... you liar... you said you loved me..and only me, you said you would always be there for me, and only have eyes for me ... you liar.. you betrayed me so many times.... this is the last time I'll let you play with my feelings. Tears started flowing out, running down my cheeks and falling off the edge of my face. I tried wiping them away, but my tears wouldn't stop flowing out of my eyes as if they were a waterfall. 

I'll never ever like another guy in my life - 

I screamed as I awoke to the sounds of birds chirping.

What was that dream all about!? Who the heck is Luke?

Suddenly, flashbacks started hitting me, and my eyes started pouring out tears.

" Oh...so that's Luke " I whispered quietly in sobs.

Okay, so you might be a bit confused right now so lets take a moment and pause, so I could tell you who exactly " Luke " is. Luke is.. or was my childhood lover, he was my first love, and the one who tore my heart up in to pieces more than once, but that dream showed me the last time we talked. Over the years, I began forgetting about him until I couldn't even remember his name anymore... but this dream just had to come and remind me of him, now lets continue on.

I wiped my tears away, and prayed I wouldn't ever have to meet him again. Stay strong! You will find your perfect prince one day. I sighed as I remembered Luke, he was beyond gorgeous, his hair,his eyes, his- 

I felt my eyes watering up again, and quickly put both my hands up to my cheeks and slapped them. 

" Stop stop stop stop " I yelled at myself. I sighed, I couldn't stop thinking about him.

I sighed again, feeling like the most stupidest person in the world, wait no .. the universe. Luke was out of my life, no where to be seen. So hey, I shouldn't worry about it. 

Even though I said that, I couldn't get the dream out of my head, it kept on replaying over and over as if it was a vine. And soon night came, and I was starving. I dragged myself down the steep stairs of my house, and in to the kitchen where I got an apple, and started going back up in to my room.

What a boring life I have. 

 So the next morning came, and I woke up to the sound of the loud rings of my phone, telling me I have to wake up now or else I'll be late, and my parents would kill me. I did my usual morning routine, and out the door I went.

" Why is life such a repetition " I thought to myself, as I was heading towards my first class. And something surprising happened. We had a new kid. Could you guess who it was?
