Forever Boy

Everybody looks for that perfect person, the perfect lover. That person who will be there til the end of forever. There forever person. And for me my forever boy.

Which seems totally ridiculous right? Me, Char Evans of Melbourne, Victoria. When I attempt to explain this to my best friends they laugh. Everyone looks at me like I'm that speck of dust on their shoulder. Oh look guys it's boring little Charlotte Evans. But all that is about to change. I am about to change.

**********

It was New Year's Eve 2013.

I was not your average 17 your old instead of going out and partying, I was with 5 of my closest friends, Holly, Jenna, Farrah, Becca and Ophelia. We were at Jenna's holiday house in Lorne, sitting around the bonfire. It's 11:49 and we are sharing New Years resolutions, when I come up with a crazy New Years resolution.

"Guys, if I had a crazy resolution would you all help me?" I suddenly blurt out. Uneasy glances are cast around the circle.

"Sure Char, it can't be as crazy as last year when you wanted to see how many bananas you could eat in a whole year." Holly laughs.

"Yeah that was crazy." Becca nods.

"It was not!" I scoff indignantly.

They all just snort. I have the bestest friends ever. Note the sarcasm.

"Anyways. This year I want to make a change. A change to me. And all of you if you want. I want to start caring about myself. About finding a forever boy." I say getting serious.

"Seriously Char? Not this forever boy shit again?" Ophelia shakes her head.

"Phels I'm serious. Please don't be a frog."

"Alright, alright" she mutters, rolling her eyes.

"Well I for one am in! Can I help you with your appearance not that you don't look good already but please Char PLEEAAASSEEE?!?" Farrah says tugging at my arm.

"Yes Farrah. Calm down!" I laugh pushing her hand away.

Out of the whole group Farrah is the most fashionable, Becca's the sporty one, Jenna's the gorgeous one that everyone loves, Ophelia is the smart one, Holly is the dramatic one and I'm the crazy one.

"WEEEEW YAY!!" Farrah screams doing a little bum shuffle dance.

"Oh my god Farrah no! It buurrrnnns." Holly gasps clutching her heart.

"Well gee thanks Hol. Your undying love for me overwhelms me." Farrah rolls her eyes.

"You guys are so mature." Ophelia tuts.

"Hey it's called having fun. Maybe you should try it sometimes Miss. Im No Fun." Holly sticks her tongue out at Ophelia.

"Guys 10 seconds!!!" Becca calls, so excited she almost knocks Jenna off the log.

"9....8....7....6....5....4....3....2....1. HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!!" We chant in unison.

"Yay! It's 2014!" Jenna squeals.

"Look fireworks!" I point to the sky just as a green one appears. "They're so fluffy!!!!"

"AWESOME!!" Holly yells.

And that's how we spent the next hour, chatting and watching the fireworks. Just me and my best friends. I should probably enjoy this moment because a lot is about to change.
