Love At First Sight

Chapter 1

I didn't chose this life I just happened to get it so don't blame me for your problems!

It all started when I (Lilly) went into my eighth grade year. I had planned to look prettier than I did the year before but, I didn't think that I would get a boyfriend. Well, I did and now everybody hates me and it's not because I have one it's because it's the most popular person in High School. I say it's not my fault I'm beautiful it's my parents they gave birth to me. I have or I should say had a few friends but, ever since I started dating Jayden they seem to hate me. The other problem is that my parents don't know about him and if they find out they would most likely kill me(not literally but verbally).

It was Monday and since I am an eighth grader I have morning classes at the high school. I was dreading walking into the school but, I had no choice. When I walked into the school I was immediately called a slut and a whore, all I wanted to do was to crawl into a hole and die. That was until Jayden came and told everybody to leave me alone. Jayden was nice enough to walk me to my locker. When I opened the locker a piece of folded up paper fell out and I was about to read it when Jayden told me to wait until I was alone tonight. So obviously I waited and it was a very long wait because my day went by so slowly. When I finally got home I ran to my room, shut the door and locked it. I opened the letter to find the most amazing words:

"Babe, Here is a list of things i love about you. For when you get back.

I love you Hair, it is the most incredible color,

I love your lips, There is nothing I would love to do more than press them against mine,

I love your eyes,I feel like once I have the chance to gaze into them it will be my heaven,

I love your passion, I can tell you have so much, I hope to be what makes you passionate one day.

I love your interests, they are not exact to mine some areas but are similar enough that we can teach each other and connect. Keeping things interesting.

I love how you seem insecure, it's cute, and it gives me the chance to prove you wrong everyday.

I love how you aren't Shallow, You are so perfect you could have anyone you desired, yet you chose me, you brought yourself to my level and gave me a new found happiness.

I love how this list could be never ending. But why waste my time when i have the joy, pleasure, honor and privilege to remind you everyday.

I love you Lilly".

I was in such amazement that I couldn't help but smile and laugh but, that changed within a moment because there was a knock on the door. It wasn't like a one time knock either it was constant. I was so scared, I could be in trouble for something, or even worse they could have found out about Jayden. I went to open the door and Daddy was standing there with an angry face. He pushed me into the room and saw the paper that I had left on my bed, he went to reach for it and I grabbed it faster than he could. Only difference is he was stronger than me and he started to yell at me. He told me that if I didn't show him the letter he was going to give me extra chores all weekend. I couldn't just show him the letter like that he would be so angry. I had an idea! I asked Daddy if he would sit down so I could talk to him about something so he did as I asked him to.

"Daddy I know this is going to come as a surprise to you. Just please don't be angry at me. I know you told me that I couldn't have a boyfriend until I was at least 16. Well I do have a boyfriend..."

"Lilly you rotten little child I can't believe you've been hiding this from me".

"Daddy please. He is really nice and you would like him I know you would".

"Alright I am not mad just a little surprise that you kept it a secret".

"Thank you Daddy".

That night I didn't feel much like eating anything. All I could do was think about how my life was so great until Daddy found out about Jayden. The look in his eyes was enough to tell me that he was angry. I knew that no matter what he would never forget about how I lied to him. I had to find a way to make it up to him. I can never fall asleep when I get into an argument with Daddy and I don't really know why. Usually when this happens I either listen to music or I read from my bible. So tonight I decided to read my bible and I found the best thing ever when I was reading.

Psalm 42

My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God:
When shall I come and appear before God? My tears have been my meat day and night,
While they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?
When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me:
For I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God,
With the voice of joy and praise,
With a multitude that kept holyday. Why art thou cast down, O my soul?
And why art thou disquieted in me?
Hope thou in God:
For I shall yet praise him For the help of his countenance.
O my God, my soul is cast down within me:
Therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts:
All thy waves and thy billows are gone over me. Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the daytime,
And in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life. I will say unto God my rock, why hast thou forgotten me?
Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? As with a sword in my bones,
Mine enemies reproach me;
While they say daily unto me,
Where is thy God?
Why art thou cast down, O my soul?
And why art thou disquieted within me?
Hope thou in God;
For I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

When I read this I couldn't help but cry and cry until I had no tears left and after that I knew exactly what I was going to do. I had to apologize to Daddy again and then I would do some of his chores to help him out.
