The moment I saw James run up to me smiling I knew; I knew him and Betty were dating now but I kept that hope. All I've ever known is hope. Even though I saw it coming my heart dropped when he told me, I felt ill and it felt as if my heart had stopped.
People say there are many guys in the world but I had had my fair share of dating guys and I knew James was different it was like he was a magnet pulling me towards him with every breath he took, I had always said wanting was enough for me, it was enough but how could I keep that hope when he had a girlfriend, maybe I should have told him I loved him, maybe I should have got over him, maybe I should have stopped imagining I was the one he loved.
I couldn't be mad at him, It was my fault not his and I should be happy for him, I really should be but I couldn't, I felt the moment stop and I felt as if I had been frozen in time I faked a smile telling him how happy I was for him, I'm being too needy too clingy most girls accept when their crush has a girlfriend and forget about him I don't know why I'm different I don't know why I feel this way, I don't know how I could be heartbroken over a boy who I had never dated in my life.
I have a boyfriend myself, but he doesn't love me he just loves the idea of me that pretty girl, well known and easy to get with. That's what all any of my boyfriends have thought. That night I went home and cried heartbroken over a boy I was never with I felt like a terrible person I looked at myself in the mirror, my perfectly curled hair I did so he would think I was pretty, nothing mattered anymore why did I keep that hope that he loved me I will never know.
