Kayla Jensen was the girl that I thought I would spend my life with. It's hilarious, almost, looking back on the pain and the suffering that one person put me through, but I wouldn't even go that far. I would put it mostly on myself, for being so blinded by what I thought was love.
Unfortunately for most of us, this is something that we experience in high school. You meet a pretty girl, (or a handsome guy) and you fall head over heels into what you think this weird thing called love is. Then, as you come to find out, things fall apart. Sexual, or physical attraction only lasts for so long, and then the love that you thought you had suddenly dies out. Weird how that works, isn't it? But it happens to almost all of us.
It wasn't that way for me. Kayla had everything, at least in my 17 year old eyes. She was blonde, 5'6", with beautiful blue eyes, and a volleyball player's body. The way that she dressed, and the way that she smiled, just got to me, and instantly, I was attached. She had lured me in, and I was on the hook so hard, that no matter how hard I squirmed to get off, it seemed to just push me closer and closer to her.
And that thing that I thought was love, eventually would break my heart. I would come to find out, that after several months of what I thought love was, that Kayla was doing things with not one, but two other guys. I was being strung along like a fool, and I was actually the 3rd option, but was too blinded by my obsession with her to even realize it.
