Never Together

Chapter one~ When we were younger

It all started 12 years ago. I was 13. You were 14. I was on my way to school, from the corner of my eyes I saw you. I tried not to stop but it was obvious I was looking. You came over to me. Oh god how I wish you hadn't. I didn't stop to look I just kept walking.

I was sitting in the lunchroom talking with my friends. The popular girl as people would call me. I didn't like being called that. It made people think I was mean. I was relatively scared of social interaction one of those kind of people. Talkative 24/7 but always feels like she said something wrong or stupid and ends up getting depressed but smiles anyways.

You came over to me. Though I didn't see you in the midst of al the boys walking towards us. They would talk to their so called "girlfriends" which I find stupid because we barley knew what love even was or how to maintain relationships at that point. It was just the status that mattered the social pedestal you're put on "loved" or "unloved" and I... was sitting at the very bottom hugging the unloved.

You tapped my shoulder I turned towards you and you whispered something to me. I was so shocked by your presence I couldn't listen. I'm guessing you asked if I wanted to see something because when I stupidly said "Y-Yeah... sure." You said "okay follow me."

You brought me to your locker. I observed the odd things in your locker. You weren't the only "dork" I involved myself with. In fact I was one myself. I tried not to involve myself with people who were mean. You seemed nice. We became best friends. What you showed me that day I will never forget. You found something I had lost ages ago. A ring my mother had bought me. I hugged you. We became inseparable.

Senior year of High school rolled around we were almost over with the year and I could tell you had liked me. The feeling was mutual. I also had lost all my friends. One I still had. Was you.

You walked past me in the hallway. I ran over. "Hey Ty" I walked besides him a bit close. I could see a paper in his hand. As soon as I looked he had crumpled it up. " what's that" I asked him. "Nothing" he avoided the question which puzzled me. We had different schedules so I only saw him after school.

You had gotten into football and had a game that day. Of course I went. Ty had lost both his parents in a car crash when he was 4 he was in a bunch of bad foster homes until being adopted by his own aunt. I had to go because it was the anniversary of his adoption and I was close to his aunt.

Later I had arrived at the basketball game and I spotted balloons strung in the center of the court ready to be dropped from the celling and confetti machines too. I assumed someone was celebrating a win today.
