Chapter One: Anna's BS

(Anna is 16 while writing this)

Im Anna Miller.
I was abandoned at age 6, I don't remember much about my parents and besides the fact that my mom and dad both had brown hair and brown eyes. My brother Fred was also abandoned with me when he was 3. We were found in a church on the south side of Manhattan. (where we were born) and found by a few nuns. The nuns took us to an orphanage that they ran and that was where we were for 1 year and then we moved to a new orphanage, we stayed there for about 3 years and then we moved to the orphanage that we are at now, Rainbow Orphanage. When we first arrived at the orphanage, there weren't a lot of kids and it was hard to make friends with the people there, so Fred and I just stuck together.

One day, 2 years ago as I was walking from the library to my room, when I bumped into this good looking blonde boy.

"Hey, what the fuck? Watch where your walking." He said sternly.

"Calm down, I was just going to my room." I replied in an "I don't care what you think about me" tone.

"Im sorry if I'm a little cocky, I'm just having a bad day."

"It's fine, don't worry about it. I'm Anna." I stretched my hand out and gestures him to shake my hand.

"Kaleb."

One thing that I remember distinctly about this greeting in particular is that how his emotions changed so rapidly. I also remember that his hands were soft but his grip was very tight.

Kaleb and I grew increasingly close to eachother. around the orphanage, Kaleb and I were known as the rainbow 2. He was like a brother to me and the good news about his family that he had left is that he had a little brother a year older than Fred but they got along quite well and they were almost as close as me and Kaleb but then again, we did everything together it was almost like we were joined at the hip.

Last year, the nuns took us on an excersion to amusement park. Kaleb and I had a lot of fun (as always) and we did all the rides together (no surprise there). While in a line to the biggest ride in the park, Kaleb reached over and grabbed my hand, a rush fell over my body and I looked towards him, "Anna, if this is the last time I see you if I die on this ride, just know that I love you." He said. "I love you too, your like a brother to me and I could never ask for anyone better, but-" I replied. "No, Anna I really like you, in a more than friends way and I've felt this way for a while but I had no way to tell you, but now, if i die, just know that I love you." He said, with a glisten in his eyes.

"Kaleb, I feel the same way but-"

"There is no buts you love me and I love you, thats it, Anna I-"

"Yeah I get it, you love me now kiss me big lump." As his lips, slowly touched mine, I felt like I was in heaven and I wouldn't be anywhere else, with anyone else, doing anything else. On the bus back from the amusement park, Kaleb and I sat next to eachother and the majority of the way there is was  pure silence. In my head I was just re-thinking the event in my head, how amazing it felt when his lips slowly touched mine, how his body was so close to mine and how a millisecond before the kiss he breathed straight onto my chin. Everything about that moment was perfect, but why was it so awkward now? Oh ya maybe because I just kissed my best friend. I finally gathered the courage to talk to him.

"So now what?" I said in a curious but soft manner.

"What do you mean?" He replied in an awkward tone.

"I just kissed you, and you kissed me back so what do we do now, in terms of our relationship."

"I mean I like you and you seem to like me too. So, do you want to be my girlfriend?" He asked me. At that moment I felt a rush of adrenaline and then the word just came out of my mouth like a wild fire.

"Yes."
