Part 1~

We were sitting on the trampoline in my backyard, Justin and I, and Christian had just gone to get us Gatorade or something. I looked at him nervously. He'd said he was thirsty and told Christian to fetch us drinks, even though I knew he wasn't. He had to tell me something.

"Caitlin, I, I know I'm young and I don't know what love is but, I love you." He blurted out.

I blushed madly as he looked at my lowered eyelids. I stared at the grass through the tiny holes of the trampoline.

"Do you love me?" His voice broke the silence.

I sighed. "I'm, I mean, we're only 12, Justin. I'm not supposed to love anyone. I think your attractive, if that helps." The truth was, I had a mad crush on him but was too embarassed to admit it.

A smirk appeared on his face as Christian appeared, carrying 3 bottles of purple Gatorade.

"Lovebirds," He smiled and handed us the purple heaven.

"It's so hot out," I stated, looking out into the woods behind our yard. "I think I'm gonna go inside, and , uh, read."

Christian gave me a weird look. "Read? What's in that Gatorade thats making you wanna read?"

"I have to catch up on my, um, favorite series. They just released a new book, ya know."

I awkwardly stepped off the metal trampoline and walked inside, feeling their eyes burning into the back of my head.

I'd been watching TV for about 20 minutes on the living room couch when the doorbell rang. I answered it, not knowing Justin was behind the door.

"Can we take a walk?" He asked me.

I pondered his suggestion for a moment, when usually I would've agreed without hesitation. "I guess so," I replied as I slipped on my flip flops.

Christian was nowhere to be seen and I was wondering where he'd gone, when Justin's voice interrupted my thoughts once again.

"When I said I loved you before, I didn't mean, like I wanna have sex with you," We both giggled, feeling dirty saying the taboo word. "I mean, I have a crush on you, that's what I meant."

I smiled. Christian told me he liked me, but I always brushed it off, like it was some kind of joke. But now it was all so real.

"I like you too, I mean, for the fact that we're not talking about love anymore."

Our hands brushed and he grabbed mine. So this is what it feels like, I thought to myself.

He stopped walking suddenly, at the end of our street, by the intersection that led to Chaz's place and looked into my eyes.

His light brown, chocolate eyes stunned me for a moment and I began to think I more then liked him. But love was also taboo at our age.

Before I knew it, he leaned in and kissed me. It was both of our first times, which I was sure of. It lasted about 5 seconds, no toungue inquired. And it led to an amazing relationship that, even 5 years later I can't seem to get over.
