Warning: Boys love story don't like it don't read

Girl Number One-Kimberly.
It started in kindergarten. Hard to believe, but yes, we really were that young when Justin’s little hatred for me started. This time was no big deal-we were young and girls had ’cooties’anyways, I just feel the need to think back over every single incident. So this is the first-my first girlfriend, my first kiss.
Kimberly was a girl in my class. She was cute with straight across bangs covering her forehead and a dimple filled smile-good thing the dimples made you forget she was missing a tooth. Anyways, I used to tug on her pony tail a lot and she used to beat me up, until one day she told me to follow her.
I did-she took us to the cubby where we kept our shoes, though it was snack time and we weren’t supposed to be there. When I asked her what she wanted, she leaned forward and kissed me. I remember turning scarlet. After that Id followed her around all the time, given her countless fruit roll ups and dandy lions, not to mention a free cootie shot.Our little love fest did not last all that long. Id say four days, but who knows, could have been more, could have been less. I was playing soccer-remember I was young so playing soccer was chasing after the ball and then crying when your best friend accidentally kicks you in the shin by mistake- and then I saw them. Kimberly and Justin walking together, holding hands and smiling.
I’d hated him at the time, told him he was a loser and all the other classical insults for children. He’d lobbed the insults right back, him and Kimberly completely oblivious to me and my profound five year old feelings. Now, I know what you’re thinking. Why do I still remember this?
I probably would have forgot a long time ago. Except it kept happening.
Girl Number Two-Lauren
I was in grade two the second time it happened. Lauren wasn’t very pretty, but I liked her despite that. She was shy and sweet and drew me funny picture when we spent time together at recesses. Justin was in the other class, and I didn’t think itd happen twice. Only it did.
“Chase?” I remember Laurens sad regret “I don’t think we should hang out any more…”
When I think about it now, I should have said something to him right then. If I had of maybe it would have stopped, maybe he would have realized it was immature to take other guys romantic interests for some kind for joke. If youre wondering, Lauren and him dated for about two weeks, and when they broke up she tried to come back to me. But I didn’t want her anymore.
Girl Number Six-Ashley
All of them had been taken. Kimberly, Lauren, Alex, Samantha, Hailey, and now Ashley. We were in grade seven, so I guess I expected some form of maturity from him. I didn’t receive it. I thought Justin wouldn’t touch Ashley-I didn’t want to touch her. But that was the point.
Ashley was an obnoxious beast of a girl, with unwashed hair and sprouting acne. She was loud and annoying, even the sound of her voice enough to set your nerves on fire. She was a year younger to-in grade six still. Not to mention with good looks and charisma, Justin was now popular. Why would he risk it to bug me? No, I hadn’t thought there was a chance…
Until I’d walked down the hall one morning to see them hooking up, his great paw of a hand caressing her fleshy skin. Just the sight of it had made me cringe-I’d barely kissed her and there they were with their tongues down each other throat. What pissed me off the most was that I now knew it was deliberate.
Girl Number Eleven-Tina
This one was one of the few that hurt. It hurt badly, like a knife being twisted in my heart. Tina was tall, with long spilling waves of brown hair flowing down her back, well defined curves, and beautiful unblemished skin. More importantly-she was sweet to me.
I’d never even had to try to get a relationship from her. Justin had been away from school for two months-I only knew because he was absent in my technology class. They were chalking it up to mono, but the thing was, nobody knew where he’d gone. So tough I was nervous, I gave Tina a chance.
She knew about my past, and assured me I had nothing to worry about. No matter how good looking Justin was, she’d never be stupid enough to fall for a guy like that just so he could break my heart. Things were great for the month we dated-we even met each others parents. My first high school relationship, happened in the closing months before summer in grade nine…
.
Then Justin came back to school. I knew. I’m not sure how, but that very first morning when he strode past my locker and saw Tina lean in to give me a kiss goodbye, I knew he was going to take her to. Did he just have a serious ‘want what I can’t have’complex? Because it was obvious he was very able at stealing girls away, so therefore he could have them.
It took three days. I have to hand it to Tina-I think that was some kind of record. And at least she didn’t let me catch them hooking up like various other girls had done. No, so told me. She even seemed upset when my eyes pricked with tears. But they were together.
Dumb girl. It only lasted a month. Still…she was the first girl I took seriously.. The first one I thought I could love if we had a little time to let ourselves fall.
Girl Number Fourteen-Karen
Karen wasn’t the smartest girl I’d dated. She wasn’t the prettiest. She wasn’t the most repulsive or the most memorable. She wasn’t the most anything I’d say, except the most convenient. And the most recent. We meet over summer, and started dating. Justin didn’t see me outside of school, so I had nothing to worry about. It was returning to grade eleven that I became weary.
I told very little people I was dating. She went to another school so I was fairly certain Justin didn’t know her. No way could he steal a girl away if he didn’t know her or about her. Impossible. I avoided him regardless, as if the happiness of dating someone was visible on my face.
I kept it from him for five months. I didn’t love Karen, but I cared for her deeply. I didn’t want him to find out, but he did. How? He used a tactic no one should ever scoop so low in using. He sent me a cute little spy, wrapped in adorable packaging.
He sent Demi. In my defence, I had no idea that the pretty little thing coming onto me was Justin’s cousin. I thought she liked me-for real. Turns out, she was waiting for me to turn her down on account that I had a girlfriend, so she could scamper back to Justin and tell him. This brings us to the present.
