I, Anaya-Mae Casey, have been in love with my best friend Theo James Berkeley (TJ) since I could understand what love meant. And when you're growing up surrounded with families like mine, who show their love every second, of every day, it's near impossible to not understand it. When he's near, it's like my soul knows he's close, you feel it everywhere. His infectious grin sends butterflies through my body, the simplest of touches has me yearning for more. The funny thing is, TJ is blissfully unaware of my feelings towards him, that's because I'm good at hiding how I feel, I've done it for years. But now I've been given an amazing opportunity at a top university to study to be a special needs teacher, and I don't wanna leave until I tell him.
It's always been you...
