L.I.F.E (Love Is Forever Eternity)

One.

"You don't know what it feels like! You don't have a clue. So.. why pretend?"  

"Because.. I love you with all my heart, my life." 

"If you love me that much, you wouldn't pretend; knowing things like that hurt me!" 

"It wasn't my fault! I didn't ask for it! It wasn't me!" 

*****

I'm Jackson, Jackson Black. I'm 17 years old, and I'm gay. In all fairness, I'm a innocent kid. Never kissed anyone, never thought about dating for the matter. Now, the question from most of you, is probably, 'How do you know you're gay then?' or 'You're gay? You never kissed anyone?'. Well, let's just say, I don't find girls attractive. Not one single bit. Guys seem really hot to me, that's just how it is. 

Often, I do stare at an occasional guys in the halls of school. mostly the one guy on the same soccer and track team as me. Levi Jones. Everytime he talks to me, I start to feel tingly. I don't exactly know, what it means. Soon enough, I'll figure it out.

"Jackson! What are you staring at?" My best friend asked me. 

"Nothing. I'm staring at nothing." I replied.

"You sure? You seem to be staring at Levi." He replied.

"Shawn! I'm not staring at him! I'm looking at some writing on the wall." 

"Sure you are Jackson. Sure. You up for some dancing tonight?" 

"Now, why would I dance? I'm a runner and Soccer player. Dancing would be a miracle."

"You're an amazing dancer! I've seen you myself!" 

"Wait, who  can dance?" Levi asked walking up to mine and Shawn's conversation.

"No one. Sorry to disappoint." I replied, in a some what rude tone.

"Levi. Can I talk to you?" Shawn said.

"Sure?" He replied. 

*Levi's and Shawn's conversation*

"Sorry about him Levi. He's in a bad mood, something at home." Shawn said, in a quiet tone.

"It's fine honestly. I should be used to it. I try and talk to him, he always speaks like this." Levi replied.

"Well, I answer your question. Jackson is a modern day type dancer. He's amazing, I'll try and sneak you a video?" 

"That would be cool. Thanks Shawn."

"You're welcome. Let's get back to class, the bell goes soon."

*Continues from the class*

"We have a project due. I all want you to find a partner and mix. You will be given a topic, either singing, dancing or playing an instrument, with vocals." The teacher said. Before anyone could move, she said something else. "However, I will be pairing you up." 

Everyone in the classed sighed including me. 

"Jessica and Hannah."

"Shawn and Justin."

"Paige and Luke."

"Levi and Jackson." 

"Rye and Andy."

"Mikey and Brooklyn."

"Abbie and Lauren." 

The teacher continued, once she said all the names, she asked us to get into out groups before discussing our topics she will give us. I refused to move, in which consulted in Levi looking at me, and moving towards me.
