Saturday 14th February- ValentinesDay
My name is Jasmine. Jasmine Jones. My friends call me JJ. I had a boyfriend called Derek. This is the story of how we went from strangers to soulmates and how terribly that ended.

It all starts at my school- Darwin Academy of Education and my chemistry class.

Derek was the other side of the classroom but we still made eye contact and mouthed words to one another. Then one day he asked for my number. Obviously I give it to him and we end up talking all night long about anything and everything. I never wanted it to end.
We spent more time together, got to know each other better and everyday I wanted him more, and more, and more.
He was like a drug fix. When he wasn't there I grew anxious, stressed and angry as if I was possessed. Then when I see or even just hear him- it all goes. Just like that.
He truly was the first thing on my mind in the morning and the last thing on my mind at night.
