I fell in love with my best friend

For as long as I can remember, Jackson has lived next to me. Our families have grown up together, after our mums met at high school in year 8, which means we have been pretty tight. Jackson has always been my big brother and my best friend. If anyone would say anything bad about me he would defend me. Through all the tears and relationships he has always came over and gave me chocolate and made me laugh. I didn’t have any siblings; it was just me, mum and dad. But I did have 2 dogs, which kind of counts as siblings doesn’t it? Jackson had 3 siblings; his sister, Katie, 10, and two brothers, Zach who is 19 and Samuel who is 3 months. My seventeenth birthday was fast approaching, which means so was Jackson’s. Jackson is 4 days older than me.
