2033

There was a knock at Ricky's door, which is what he expected around this time of day. When he opened it, he saw a shorter middle aged man carrying a recorder and a notepad. The man gave him a small grin and reached out his hand to him.

"Hi, my name is Shawn and I'll be interviewing you for an article for the Times Magazine. May I come in?"

Ricky took his hand and shook it as he widened the door gap. "Awe yes my manager said you'd be here at noon. Come on in, and take a seat on the living room couch."

The man followed Ricky to his living room, and they sat adjacent from each other. Ricky watched as the man set up shop on his table. When he was done, Shawn cleared his throat and turned on the hefty recorder.

"This is Shawn of the Times Magazine interviewing an international singer, heartthrob, and songwriter Mr. Ricky Bowen. He's agreed to let me interview him about his life. Isn't that right Mr. Bowen?"

Ricky waved at him. "Please call me Ricky. Also, yes that's what I intended."

"Well first things first, have you ever been in love?"

Ricky was thrown off by the question and began blushing immediately. "Oh wow uh I wasn't ready for such an intense question right away. Uh I guess yeah I have been in love at least once yeah."

Shawn chuckled lightly at his reaction. "Sorry to sneak that on you so suddenly, but my boss really wanted me to get that info out of ya."

Ricky just nodded awkwardly.

"Next question, what was your most intense love story and with who?"

Ricky's face returned to a red color as he thought back to the only person on earth that has ever captivated him. It was like she had put him under her spell or something.

"Well you see its kind of a long and funny story. One that is so bizarre yet so intense." Ricky said avoiding eye contact.

Shawn was intrigued by his answer. "Please go on. I have til 3."

Ricky sighed and got in a more comfortable position.

"You probably wanna get comfy cuz this is gonna be a while. It all started back in kindergarten."

2008- Kindergarten

Ricky had first experienced the emotion of love when he was only 5 years old, but he didn't even notice it was there at the time due to his childlike innocence.

He had been playing in his room with his legos when he heard a loud move in truck pull into the house across the street's driveway. He looked out of the window to see what all the ruckus was and was shocked to see someone finally moving into that house that's been on the market for ten years.
