Since before I could remember I always wrote how I felt, if I was annoyed or hurt at someone I would write them a letter then burn so all the bad feelings would go away but as I got older the letters became emails, however I never deleted two of them...one was toward my first kiss who was amazing and perfect but he moved schools and houses and the other was to my best friend who I secretly had a crush on for a very long time, with the emails I hoped the emotions would disappear too, they never did,not really but I moved on with my life.
I was eating a slice of toast on Monday morning when I heard the knock. I started to smile uncontrollably , I flung the door open and gave Devon a tight hug. " woah , easy tiger " he chuckled. I rolled my eyes, " whatever Devon, so didn't miss you like " I teased. " well I missed you my little hope" he grinned mischievously. I felt my cheeks go bright red. He always seemed to make me feel like this. It became tradition for nothing much to tease me and me to become flustered over m thinking he actually means it and could like me back , I was just naive. Every morning since he got his drivers licence two years ago I have been his number one passenger, he gave me lifts to and from school and wherever I want to go,that's what best friends are for after all...I thought I loved him since I was five. We were best friends practically since birth, we always lived next door so we were always inseparable , he knew all my secrets except about how I felt.. When we were thirteen we went to Melissa's birthday party, we sat in her bedroom talking when everyone decided to play spin the bottle but you had to kiss the person it landed on but you had to do it in the other room. When it was Devon's turn my heart was thudding uncontrollably , hoping it would land on me , Devon's chocolate eyes pierced through mine until it landed on Sarah.. He gave me a questioning look , like he was asking permission or asking for mr to stop it, I didn't but I thanked the gods above for not letting me see it anyway.After that I didn't really care until I felt eyes on me and people saying my name.."yeah?" I say bored. "You have to go out with Seamus? He got you" Melissa said bitterly, it wad great for way too long about how much she loved Seamus, the boy with the deep blue eyes you get lost in , with his cute dorky glasses, bright cheeky smile and dark blonde hair..I never really saw her attraction towards him until that day.. We went into Melissa's spare room , we sat beside each other on the bed and talked, I was glad he didn't kiss me. "Hope we have been friends for years now and well I really really like you " he looked at his hands and bit his lip. He was the first boy to ever tell me they liked me. My heart skipped a beat , I felt special. " so would you kiss me..?" He went on after a minutes silence. I bit my lip nervously as I nod my head, I realised my first kiss could be with a lot worse.. The kiss was weird..it stopped time as he leant in slowly,put his hand through my hair. My head was pounding when eventually our lips grazed each other, his were soft and tasted like caramel, we kissed for what felt like forever when we heard banging on the door, we pulled apart guiltily , we never talked about that day again but it started how I felt about him, it didn't last long because a month later he moved away from our close town to the other town beside it, he never came over, he didn't go to our school anymore so I moved on but I always thought about what might have been...I never told Devon about what happened in the room and in turn he never told me , I heard anyway from Sarah who told the whole school about it. He came to me when people kept talking about him, it was me who supported him through it yet that summer it was Sarah he chose to be his first girlfriend . Which is how my two emails were written.
School went pretty boring, the classes seemed to drag on , talking about Dna and the difference to Rna and then how to write a journal entry. I was excited for maths with my latest crush though, he was beautiful , only joined my class this year. black hair , hazel eyes , muscly, strong and just lovely. Every time he smiled I melted a little inside.
At lunch I wanted to start reading his email again ...but when I tried going into the phone malfunctioned and wouldn't let me, I thought nothing of it and left it at that.. How stupid I was.
