My name's Nova. Grey. Nova Grey. weird name right? i got that a lot. Can you imagine the nick names? Haha! when ever i got something right, my freshmen english teacher would be all "Super! nova" and everyone would giggle at her ridiculous puns of me. she'd also be like "hey grey... i bet you 'know- of -a' pun i'm about to make!! HAHAHA!" god i hated that teacher. my favorite was one that my ex-boyfriend used on me as a pickup line. "hey do they call you nova because youre body is out of this world!" CLASSIC RIGHT? i hated that too.
okay enough of the awful puns, my names nova grey. I lived a great life. I guess. my dad passed away when i was 2.I had a younger brother, and my mom was a single parent. she worked full shifts as a surgical attending, and my brother followed in her foot steps, and went to med school at 18- but we will go into that until later. i was bullied alot as a kid, mainly because i was really short and skinny. and you know - the nova thing. i didnt really have any friends so going into middle school was kind of tough. 6th grade was horrid, but in 7th grade, every day after school, i would play flag football with a near neighbor named logan. he introduced me to leo, who introduced me to Tim, who introduced me to KC, who introduced me to sirius. It was cool because instead of teasing me, they teased him even more. if he did something wrong, or call a fowl, theyd be like "are you sirius right now?" now that was actually funny because it wasn't me. i met some friends who liked me, and it was even cooler because they were guys, which means less drama. my brother, who was an absolute nerd; never came out to play. he was to busy working on his weird little theorys he has. geek. anyway, i have a little bit of a bipolar disorder, but its okay because i channeled my inner pain into sports, like football. i played football for ranch wood middle school with the squad in 8th grade, and onto the fresh men team at digger way high. high school is kind of where the squad broke up a little bit. I dated KC for half of fresh man semester, and we broke up because he was moving to ridgeway. our relationship was always a lil awkward any way. Tim made the soccer team, forgot about us and left. Leo got a girl friend - he still plays for the team but he just doesnt hang out any more. Sirius went to juvy for trying to steal meds for his mom, dropped out right after that, and never looked back. And i know what your thinking - is he sirius right now?
im sorry i had to.
any way, now its just logan and I. like in the beginning. by the time every one left, it was junior year, and then thats when it finally happend - logan asked me out. the teams have been shipping it for years. ive always had a small crush on him, but i was too scared to say anything. i mean we hung out all the time - they baby sat me when my mom worked long shifts and my brother wasnt around. he was my first friend. my only friend. my best friend
and now my boyfriend
crazy right? i never thought it would happen.
he was my first kiss. it after a game in the middle of the field.. he was my first love. my only love. we broke up right before College, he went to Stanford, i went to UCSD. we met up on holiday breaks and off days when it was possible. i was miserable without him. i missed logan so much it tore me apart.
especially when he got with another girl at his school.
before you freak out, let me remind you we were broken up. just when he was single i was allowed to kiss him, hug him, call him mine. even if we weren't together. even if he really wasnt mine. he was hers. I just had to deal with the painful fact that I couldn't hug him, kiss him, call him mine, because he wasn't. he was hers. And by the way, her name was Basil. You know, like the weird smelling plant that fancy restaurants put next to your food? Except for she wasn't weird smelling. She was gorgeous. Basil had long, curly silky blond hair, A perfect body, she was tall and was just beautiful. Even without makeup. She had the whitest teeth, a huge smile and amazing eyebrows. I had scraggly short brown hair, i was 5'5 and puberty didn't ever really give me anything besides acne and growing pains. After he met her, He texted me less, he met up with me less. I faded out of his life, even though he was very much alive in my life for about a year into college. I met a couple friends in college, their names were Tina and Karley. They were the ones that actually started transforming me into a girl. They did my hair and make up they helped me with my Bra's they helped me pick out things that were made for my body. Not boy stuff.
