hiiii. new FF!
i know i've kind of been MIA for a little,
but it's only because i've been thinking about / working on this for a good amount of time now.
so. tell me what you think?!


Prologue

Is it just me, or does anyone else feel like they are maturing at a rate one hundred times faster than the majority of the population their age?

If so, let me assure you that you’re not alone.

I’ve always thought that silly drama about who’s territory a boy is or how a friend is banned from a clique just because of one tiny error was beneath me. But for a while, I was gearing off in that direction. I wore too much makeup, hooked up with a new guy every other day, and couldn’t be seen in school unless I was violating the dress code. Those things were normal for me. That is, until I reached high school. That, my friend, is when everything changed.

Honestly, that’s when I grew up.

My values, beliefs, and morals completely changed. I didn’t want to be one of the many at my school who devoted every minute of their time gossiping about people’s business that they had no right knowing or sharing. I finally gained some common sense.

If Jake hadn’t come into my life, who knows what path I would be leading right now.

When I met Jake, he was just another one of those cute boys. There wasn’t anything remotely special about him except for his looks. He didn’t play a sport or a musical instrument; he wasn’t known for anything. But somehow, he caught my attention. To this day, I don’t know what drew me to him. Fate? True love? Maybe. But all I know is that I fell for him hard and fast.

All of my supposed “friends” advised me to just let him go. They almost made me feel as if I couldn’t even be seen by his side. Just because Jake wasn’t at the top of the social ladder meant that I was banned from having contact with him? Oh, no.

I guess that was the last straw. My friends always pushed me towards guys that everyone knew, but the one guy they didn’t was the guy I wanted to be with. And because of that, they assumed he would immediately be absented from my mind like he never even crossed it. Thanks, but no thanks. I wasn’t going to let them keep controlling my life for any more time than they already had.

It was the first time I realized that this life I was living wasn’t what I really wanted, believe it or not. So, I stopped. I stopped it all. Yeah, for a week or so I was missed by the freshman kings and queens. But after that, I was just another face in the crowd. And to be honest, I had no regrets.

It’s funny, though. That day when my popularity came crashing down, Jake finally took his first look at me.

The saying is that the rest is history, and the only way to explain how our love skyrocketed would be just that. I couldn’t say the exact moment where I knew he was “the one” for me or when he knew I was “the one” for him. But we both knew it. We confessed openly to each other how in love we were all the time. I never thought I would be in a relationship like the one Jake and I were in, but I was wrong in such a right way. Experiencing something so real and committed was new territory.

As I headed into my senior year, counting down the short amount of time until my four year anniversary with Jake, I thought we were unstoppable. After being with each other for so long, how could we not be?

That’s where I made my mistake. The mistake of believing.
