My Valentine

The gaze at love

As mom and I pulled up, I saw James, he waved at us happily. We got out of the car, sat down outside, and talked with James. A few moments later a car pulls up in front of the house; I looked through the driver side window and saw an older couple. Before I looked in the back seat, he stepped out of the car.

He was waring a brown leather jacket, a black and white T-shirt, ripped up jeans, and a pair of black Converse. His hair was spiked and when he removed the sunglasses to
revealed his eyes and looked at me I almost melted. The fact that it was hot outside didn't help.

He looked so cute, but he looked much older than I thought he was. I thought he was about 20 when he was only 17. He was devilishly handsome. I realized I was staring and looked back at my mom.

We walked inside and sat on the couch when he came out of his room and sat next to me. I tried to play it cool. I muttered the word "H...hi. ", I mentally face palmed.

He looked at me and I almost died when I heard his deep voice say "Hi. ",. Still trying to play to cool I asked him "Do you listen to Marilyn Manson?" He said yes and I knew I had found my first and hopefully last love. He asked if I like Slipknot and Korn "Of course I do.", I said with do much enthusiasm I could have exploded, and because of that I mentally facepalmed again knowing I probably blew my chance with this sexy human being.

My mom and James walked out of the kitchen and asked if Valentine would get a box of cards out of the cabinet. I hadn't learned his name until they said it. I was ridiculously happy to know. The card game that he was asked to take out looked like fun so I joined. Little did I know it was one of the dirtiest card games to ever exist. It is called Cards Against Hoomanity. I didn't know how to play, but it was a simple game after my mom explained it.

After the card game was over, it was about 12:00 a.m. We were about to leave. I thought about hugging him, but it was too late we were in the car, heading home. I got home, took a shower, and went to bed.

I hadn't seen him till a week after that, but this time everyone went. Jenny my aunt, Gareth my cousin, Candy my sister, Kiara my youngest sister, my mom, and me. Me, Gareth, and Valentine played video games for a bit before we played Cards Against Humanity.

Valentine played music off his phone, and he let me pick so of course I picked Tainted Love by Marilyn Manson. Apparently at the time was his favorite song by Marilyn Manson. Makes sense its an amazing song.

At about 11:00 p.m. we gathered our stuff to leave. I was so tempted to hug Valentine, but when Gareth hugged him he said blankly "I don't like being hugged." I began to think that him and I may never be as close as I want us to be. I didn't think he liked me anyway.

She was about to leave when Gareth hugged me. I was hesitant, but I wanted him off me. "I don't like being hugged.", I said immediately regretting it. I wanted her to hug me so bad.

I asked James if she had a Facebook. He said yes, so I went to go find her. I couldn't remember her last name. I waited till it came up.

I asked my friend Liz if she wanted to come with me and my mom to James's house. She said yes and I gave her a warning. "There is a really hot guy there.", "I think I can handle it." She said confidently.

When we got there Valentine and James were sitting outside waiting on us to play cards. I was trying to play it cool so I started up a conversation with Liz. I was desperately trying to make her laugh, but I heard a different person instead. I don't know why but his laugh made me laugh. His smile was so contagious. Valentine...is so perfect.

After we played the game we headed home. This time I was talking to Liz so I wouldn't be so tempted to hug Valentine. I was still tempted, but not to the point where I would do it.
    
       We were walking to the car when Liz said "He was cuuute!", I didn't show it but I felt jealousy over Valentine for the first time. I was afraid she might try something. I just hoped he liked me.

     A day or two later Valentine added me on Facebook. We started talking to each other a lot. We realized how alike we are and how much we liked each other. I fell in love with Valentine. It was close to the last week of July when he did the most romantic thing ever. At the time he didn't have his license, Gareth left a video game at his house, Liz was needing a place to spend the night, I was about to go to Texas for a week, so he showed up at my door step at 3 o'clock in the morning to pick up Liz, drop of the video game and... give me a hug❤️😍😍. (Sorry my heart melts everytime I think about that) he mainly came for the hug.

      It was the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me. We weren't dating, yet I was so in love that to felt like it. I left that morning to Texas. Which was the worst vacation ever. I had a migraine that lasted a week. The best part was I slept most of the time so its not like I did much.

      When we got back from Texas, my love grew more and more for Valentine. I realized how perfect he is.
