It was late January. I woke up with the weak sunlight shining through the blinds of my room. I sat up on my bed and gave a large yawn, stretching and rubbing my eyes until I'm awake enough to get up. I swung my feet over the edge of my bed and looked over the vast mountains of junk on my floor.
"I should really, really, really clean my room," I shook my head and chuckled, "Nah, not today."
I stood up and gave myself one last stretch. I stumbled over the piles of clothes and miscellaneous foreign objects. I grabbed my laptop and plopped back down on the bed. I fumbled around with the charger cord, but I finally managed to get it plugged into my laptop. I turned it on and waited a painstaking five minutes just for it to start up.
"I need a new laptop," I sighed.
My laptop was broken. The thing holding the cd drive in popped off, so it kinda opened when it wanted to. The clip broke, but until of replacing just the clip they "had" to replace the whole thing that held the screen and the screen components which in time caused the part of the object holding the screen in place to have a large crack in it, still wasn't worth the $300 they were wanting from me.
I logged onto SmallWorlds. Another boring day in Trading post buying nothing, and selling nothing. I was economically challenged. I had some good things, but not enough. I loved to buy too much stuff. Too much stuff, not enough money. I went into instance six. I saw two guys there. One I was interested in, and one that was interested in me. After about two hours of getting to know both of them. Their names were Aaron and Jake. Jake obviously liked me, but I liked Aaron. I don't know why I liked him... I just... did. There was something about him I liked.
I know it's bad to date someone over a computer, but I was just done trying to get a boyfriend from my school when no one there liked me. I ended up adding them both, and we all kinda just parted ways. I never saw Aaron again until about a month later.
It was late February and I was at my house on SmallWorlds talking to my sister Mckenzie Keen. She was lovely and she agreed with me on most things. She was honestly the best friend I've ever had over the internet. We were soon intereupted with Aaron coming into the house. By then I had lost interest, but every day he would always come and hang out with me and my sister for a few minutes. If he wanted to talk more, we would go to Trading Post, and it was the only time I loved going to Trading Post. After a while my feelings for him blossomed. He was just... perfect. He was sweet, funny, and kind of a flirt. I liked up, and I liked everything about him.
"Do you have Kik," he asked.
"Oh, um... Yeah, why?"
"Talk to me on Kik"
We added each other, and we talked to each other both on SmallWorlds and through Kik. I learned that I liked him more and more, and that he was actually pretty cute irl (in real life). All my friends would say it was a cupcake phase, but I wanted to prove them wrong. I wanted to prove that I could stay in the cupcake phase. I was sadly but honestly in love. Everything was just a 'wow' moment with him, but it all changed... He started demanding sex, and started being a complete and total dick about everything. I even doubted he meant it when he said he loved me. I was just done. Everything in my try to be perfect relationship was slipping through my fingers. I should have figured it would considering those Tumblr "relationships" aren't all that and a bag of chips..
I soon lost interest and found someone else. Aaron and I constantly bitched at each other over Kik on who's the reason why the relationship ended, but my heart still wanted him, but my brain kept telling me no. I quickly fell in love with him even though I was currently in a relationship with someone else. I didn't want to break his heart, so I waited until he broke up with me. We barely saw each other on the bus, and we went to two totally different schools. I wanted Aaron, not him. After about a month of trying to find out how to cut him off, but he ended up breaking up with me, and I was so happy. Aaron just didn't understand me.... and what he put me through while we were broken up. It wasn't all hugs and kisses and "I miss you"s. It was torment. I would always be blamed and put on the spot for everything I've done, a few days after me and the guy broke up, Aaron asked me out... I of course said yes and I honestly couldn't have been happier, and it still lives true to this day. Even though we bitch and yell at each other (mainly my fault) I still love him, and wouldn't want to give him up for the world.
We finally Skyped each other, and he was the cutest thing I've ever. He was so rude, but I know he didn't mean it because if I pointed something out after we got off, he'd apologize for it. I loved skyping with him. It just made me fall harder to where I couldn't fall anymore.
We went through two months of the cupcake phase, and it had to be the best two months of my life, and it's about to be the best 3 months of my life on the 20th of August. He was a complete sugar bomb. I mean long text messages telling me everything he loves me, how beautiful I am, and that I'm an amazing girlfriend. I cried every night to those text messages because they meant everything to me. They were my everything.
On SmallWorlds I had bought Rafael The Raccoon. It reminded me so much of Rafael from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that I started running around yelling, "NINJA TURTLE COON." I would also say it on Skype and he thought it was the most adorable thing ever, and it just kinda became our thing. We would always say "Ninja Turtle Coon!" and make hearts with our hands. My heart would melt everytime he said it. I loved it so much.
"Hey Aaron, guess what!"
"No! Don't even."
"GUESS WHAT! :D"
"Omg. What."
"Ninja Turtle Coon<3 :3"
