Its been 10 years since Emma has seen her best friend, and the love of her life. Now its their high school reunion, and he came.
"And it was like a dam broke. Tons of memories came flooding into my mind. When we were 6 and I dropped my cherry Popsicle and he gave me his so I wouldn’t cry. The time I broke my foot at the park in 7th grade and he carried me all the way home. And when my first serious boyfriend broke up with me and he showed up at the door with an armful of Disney movies and a huge tub of vanilla ice cream; without being asked. And finally the day I left, when he spent the whole day taking me to places where some of our best memories were made. We spent the whole day together. Until I left on my plane."

reminisce.
For the first ten years of my life I always imagined myself a princess. I always saw myself being an amazing, and beautiful person. Everyone saw me as a loving girl who just wanted happiness for everyone and only wanted to see people smile. Until the eleventh grade, when my crush Rayan Lopez called me ugly. I adored that boy with everything, since 7th grade, and that was the day.... I realized I wasn't a princess after all. It's amazing how quickly someone can defeat your dream with the utterance of one word. Whoever said words don't hurt, must have never experienced this. Twenty years later, I cringe whenever I hear it and am immediately brought back to that rainy afternoon when the love for myself diminished. That's why when I opened up my mail and found an invitation to my high school reunion... I nearly passed out.Complete

Safe With Me
It was like a fairytale being with him. It was like the world could come crashing down but not even that could tear us apart. *** "I didn't ask for you to come into my life or to expect me to love you more than I could possibly love him.

I hate how you remind me so much of him. Nobody asked you to do this.." I hadn't realized how close I had gotten to him until his hands cupped my face. "He asked me, okay? He begged me to look after you. You need to face reality. He's dead Emma." *** We were perfect together. Nothing could tear us apart.
