My Love Story

Past

You guys are probably wondering who this guy is, his name is Jacob Reid Erins.

The guy who gave me a new feeling that I had never experienced, a feeling that I started to treasure, a feeling that never have I ever imagined to happen to me. Not so soon anyway. And it is all from a guy named Jacob Reid Erins.

Reid as everyone calls him, who was just an ordinary guy who now worth something to me. At least I thought he was.

Days after I told my Bonnie and Laine about him, they started to notice it more. And the stupid me, told the rest of the group including one of his friends, Gaven Chase. Which Bonnie warned me its not a good idea to tell yet but let me anyway because it's my situation and I'm a girl who couldn't keep her own secret and is like preaching it to everyone. Them but not everyone.

What do I do to get to him? I go to his class where they stay in between classes. I would sit nearby and bite my lip or make my laugh as girly amd cute as possible just to get him to notice me. I try to go to which activity he joined. Obsessed stalker much? Heck, I made him my partner in MC-ing our school's talent show.

I didn't notice I've been spending too much time with them, until Bonnie told me I am. I even chose him over my friends when we were about to hang out. I'm glad my friends didn't mind it. I chat with him almost frequently, he is the reason I'm looking forward for school.

One time when we were chatting, I got so curious. I asked him a question.

'What would you do if one of us girls, that's been friends with you for a long time suddenly likes you?'

Not long later he replied.

'Probably take that chance'

My heart started to pound so fast.

'Take what chance?'

'to ask her out'  You can tell I squealed too hard there, I did but only inside. My parents were home that time. They would ask what's up.

There's just so much questions flowing in me to ask him. But one could not form. Maybe I'll just leave it down low for now.

'really?' that's all I can think of. My mind has all stopped.

'depends if I like her' right after that he tailed another message saying he gotta go.

I didn't get to stop him, questions left unanswered. I slept thinking about our conversation, hugging the crap out of my pillow until I fell asleep.

Christmas is arriving, I'm thinking if I should buy him a christmas gift.

I chatted with him one night, I asked him how does he celebrate christmas. He said sometimes he doesn't spend Christmas with his parents because of work. His parents would just give his siblings and him some money to have a christmas dinner together. I asked him what does he want to get for christmas, not making him think I would actually get him one. One of his hobbies except basketball is reading. He is basically also a bookworm, so he told me 'A FREAKING DELICIOUS BREATHTAKING BOOK'. That immediately gave me an idea.

We had our school Christmas Party and talent show few weeks after. Our Christmas party was held first, before the talent show, us students had to bring food to share to everyone.

When the party has started and I have tried the food, I got his christmas gift and a lengthy christmas card I wrote the night before and held it behind my back. I went to find him to give it to him. I couldn't give the present to him in private, although I didn't want his friends to see me pass him a gift while his they don't have one I still gave it to him then and there. He accepted it and thanked me. I stood there and and just grinned, waiting for him to open them. He opened the christmas card first and quickly scanned it. He nodded. He opened his christmas gift next. His gift is small and flat just like the christmas card. He opened it and got really surprised. I got him a gift card to buy books from the local book store that is worth a hundred dollars. I took some money from my savings and bought it. You guys maybe do think I'm stupid. Who the hell will buy his/her crush an expensive gift who doesn't even know if they return feelings for him/her by the way. Well me.
