Oh, there he was, Lucas, the boy I was in love with. With his dark blue eyes, dirty blonde hair, slightly tanned skin no pimples, pink lips that were as soft as something very soft and gosh, perfect white smile.

 

I have been in love with him since I was 7 years old. I know that when people are so young they can’t tell what true love is and isn’t, but there was something about him that made me go crazy since I met him.

 

“Hey Brook” he exclaimed trying to seduce me. Boy did he fail. No, just kidding.

But he did some type of strange smirk which made me crack up in laughter. “What did I do?” he said a tad bit fakely offended. I just kept laughing, holding my stomach because it hurt.

 

“Nothing, is that you are trying so very hard to seduce me it makes me laugh” I explained in a ‘sexy’ whisper.

 

All right. Ill explain you my story… or lets say our story.

 

When we were 7 years old we met each other. It may sound cheesy, but it was love at first sight. Our parents were friends from work. His parents had been transferred from Australia. So yes another awesome factor about Lucas, or as I call him Lukey.  We first went to a small park, with one small hill in which you could see the dawn and the sunset. Also you could see the stars in mid summer.

 

**FLASHBACK**

 

“Hey baby girl, today I’m going to introduce you to some new people, all right?” my mother said with the sweet voice she had

 

“Yes Mama” 7 year old me answered as we walked towards the park.  When we reached the base of the hill, we met with 2 adults, and there was someone hiding behind the woman.

 

“Oh come on Lucas, don’t me shy!” she said whispering but OBVIOUSLY trying to embarrass Lucas, was it? Yeah, I think it is.

 

“Jesus Christ mother, please don’t embarrass me,” he said as he left his hiding spot behind his mother’s legs. When he saw me, his eyes lit up, he cheeks went bright red and his mouth was a tad bit opened as he gasped. I think I had the same expressions as him. I do not recall them though.

 

After we introduced ourselves to each other, Lucas parents had brought up a picnic and we sat down and ate some delicious biscuits and sandwiches. Then Lucas and I played around until it was dark and very late.

 

That day, I had found my best friend and it felt amazing. Now we spent time together playing until sunset, every day in that small hill.

**END OF FLASHBACK**

 

When we were 12, he gave me a rose for my birthday, but I obviously did not know it was from him but I had a weird feeling that it WAS from someone special.

 

**FLASHBACK**

 

As I approached my desk I felt everyone’s stare on my shoulders. What. The. Hell? I’m not a shy human but this surely felt kind of awkward.

 

Then I saw it. It was a red as blood rose. Perfect shape, color and not a single thorn in it. I was stunned. Well of course I was, it not an everyday event that I girl like ME gets this type of “gift”?
