My Real Love Story

1. Back Story

   I'm a teenage girl living in the state of Tennessee. In the small town that I live in dating isn't a big deal. I never was into relationships and I thought they were pointless. One day all of that changed, but I think this needs a little back story before I can spill the tea. 

   So it all started when sometime last year I was walking down the hall and seen this boy. He was in the grade above mine, and I thought he was really attractive. He kinda looks like Harry Potter in "The Goblet of Fire" just if you were wondering what he looks like. I've decided not to use real names, so I'm gonna call him Erin. 

   Erin had a lot of friends during this time and I had a major crush on one of them.  I'm gonna call him Mason. One of my friends at the time was really close with Mason, so she was gonna help me talk to him. I thought this was an amazing idea, which it was but it was also one of my worst ones yet. 

   Prom season was coming up and I wanted to go with Mason more than anything. My friend had been talking to him for a good minute now, and Mason was really starting to like me. Me and my friends were at lunch and Mason walked up to me and sat down. He said hello and I could tell that he was nervous. After a few minutes of small talk and his friends yelling "just do it already" at him he asked me to prom. Of course I said yes and for the next few weeks things where going great. 

   One week until prom and me and Mason were going to go dress/suit shopping the next day. I called my dad and he told me about how I was finally get to see him for the first time in three months. My dad lives three hours away and prom just happened to be on the same night that my dad was coming to see me. My mom wasn't gonna let me cancel on my dad, so I had to cancel on Mason. I called him and when I told him what wasn't going and he got really said. He told be all about how happy he was to see me and I felt really bad for canceling on him. 

   Prom night came and Mason took my best friend to prom and started catching feelings for her. I was really upset about it for a good two weeks. One day I was at lunch, and all my friends were with there boyfriends/girlfriends, and I was all lonely and sad. Erin came and sat down next to me. He asked me why I was sad and I told him everything. He told me about how he also felt really sad and lonely.  We got along really wheel and let's just said I was supper happy for the rest of the day. 

   A month goes by and I had to work the school carnival. Me and my best friend Lily were working together (that's not her real name.) Erin came up to us and he kept flirting with me according to Lily. We had a really nice time together and little did I know I was gonna get to see him soon. The next week we had to go to this thing at the high school. I was with one of my dude friends that I'll call Logan. Well, I was supposed to hang out with Erin but he blew me off to hangout with his ex girlfriend. Me and her have beef that I'm not gonna get into that by the way. While I was talking to Logan, Erin walked up to me and the three of us started talking. Me and Erin started talking about The Weeknd. We talked for a good two hours and I ate lunch with him and it was great.  That was the last time I seen him for a while 

   Erin and Mason went to high school, so I didn't really talk to Erin however  Mason is a different story. Over the summer me and Mason texted each other everyday and I was falling for him again. He stayed off and on with his ex the whole time so I never had time to make any moves. I still thought about Erin and often wondered how he was doing. One day I was on Instagram and found him. I started texting him and we only talked about three times over summer break. School was two months in and long story short me and Erin still weren't talking but me and Mason were.
