Jonathan's Point of View

My parents are rich= my life sucks. My parent's controll my life= my life sucks hard.

My mother and father are Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Williams. Yes, the Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Williams of Williams Gold Inc. My parent's life revalves around the industry, they are the only mass producer's of gold. blah. blah. blah

Screw my parents...

My name is Jonathan Williams, Junior. Sometimes it sucks to be a Junior. Especially when the only thing I look forward in life is to see my beautiful Emily. I love her, I truelly love her. I even agreed to taking the buisness from my father one day so I could date her. Then, her parents got greedy, so now my family pays her family so I can date her.

I never thought true love would be this way. If only she loved me. The truth is, I think she hates me. I always see her eyeing some pheasant boy when we go out. Come to think of it, the same pheasant boy, every time. Anway, I do not think she will ever really love me, but she will be mine. No matter what.

That was going through my mind when I knocked on Emily's front door. I heard her mother yell through the door

"He's here"

And even if she hates me, I became a little excited. Her mother opened the door.

"Hello, Jonathan" she said "Emily is so excited to see you" her mother lied.

"And I am excited to see Emily." I have brought along a vase of a dozen yellow roses. When i showed them to her mother, she snatched them and put them somewhere in her tiny house. Just then, Emily walked downstairs.

She was wearing the dress my mother bought for her, but that in no way reflected who she really was. With a fake smile, she and I where out the door.

"Go have fun!" Her mother yelled almost like a demand.

We stepped in the carrage I rented just for this date.

"Ooh, fancy are we?" Emily asked with a smile

"I want the best for you."

"Stop." she said, I became very confused

"Stop what?"

"I want to be friends, just friends. I'm sick of pressure."

"Well then why don't we just have fun then?" I said hoping to cheer her up

"Okay, where are we off to?"

"Horse races" I said looking at her face to see if she becomes excited, or dissapointed. I sware for a split second her eyes sparkeled. Maybe I am FINALLY getting to this girl.

"Sitting and watching."

"i know not your style. You know what, I have a better idea." I said.

We arrive at the track.

"I'll be right back" I said. I went to find the directer Mr. Umm (i forgot his name), when I finally found him I said

"Cancel the races. I need full use of the track and it's horses."

"Who do you think you are?" I guess he really didn't realize who I was until he turned around, his face went pale white and he said "I'm sorry Mr. Williams, of course."

Then everyone cleared out of the stadium, and I headed out to find Emily to start our night.

Emily's POV

I have been sitting in this damn stadium for twenty minutes. Just when I think that Jon has givin up I see him in the middle of the track gesturing me to come to him. Everyone had cleared, the only people left where Jonathan and I. I journeyed to my 'romantic' evening on the track, but when I got to the track he was gone.

I was looking around when someone grabbed my hand, next thing I know I'm holding on for dear life to Jon as we ride on a beautiful horse.

"Having fun yet?" Jon asked me. I thought about the question. I was having fun, just Jon and I.

Which is crazy, but he didn't just stay on the track....

The gates from the track opened wide and we rode. Jon stopped at a sandwhich place and ran in. He came out with every choice of sandwhich topings the place had in a bag.

Next thing you know, we are on the beach having a picnic. Both of us made our own sandwhiches and I was suprised he knew how.

"I didn't think this kind of food was your style." I prompted

"I can't have caviar every night." Jon said with a smile.

"I just thought. Well."

"That I'm so rich that I'm not capible of being normal?"He said. With a bit of shame behind his voice.

"I guess I didn't really know you."I said "We never really talk. All you do is try to impress me."

"Does it work?"

"Sometimes, but I want to know you. Who you are."

"Jonathan Williams Junior."

"I don't mean your name,I mean you." when i said that he became confused, and I could tell he never asked himself that question.

"I'm the man that loves you" he said. I might have blushed a little, but just a little.

"Stop. Jon, I'm not marring you. No matter what my parents say, no matter what your parents say. I don't think....well..." I trailed off.

"You don't think you love me?" he asked.

"I don't know you." I said.

"Is this about that poor boy?" he asked all defensive.

"Nic."

"Sure." you could see the despair in his eyes. "I fell in love with you when I was fourteen and you where twelve."

"Stop being so dramatic. You can't love me. You see our 'love' is filled with money and bargains. I'm not property, you can't buy me."

"But there is love there?" he asked with hope in his voice.

"Maybe." There was truth to that I loved him like a friend.

Or do I love him as something more?
