I'd always trusted that fate would bring me to that boy that I would fall in love with and one day I thought I had found him
I was with my friends at school we were talking about the upcoming dance I was going to wear pink my best friend Tegwyn was wearing ocean blue and my other best friend Lily was wearing red
Two boys came up to us we had no idea who they were when they were near and we realized that they were headed in our direction we rated them the brunette was an 8.5/10 and the taller brunette was an 8.5/10 as well us three thought they were the cutest things in the world.
"Hey girls" said the shorter one we were giddy and afraid and all just said "hi"
The taller boy made the move first he went for my best friend Tegwyn
The shorter boy went for me we soon found out that they were best friends too
I felt sorry for Lily but she had said many times that she had no interest in boys at least not yet no matter how many times Tegwyn and I tried to convince her
Us four went on a double date I knew my boy was for real I didn't know about Tegwyn I'd ask her later
After I met my boy and that first date I decided then to believe in love at first sight
He was amazing he was so sweet so caring and he told me he loved me as much as I loved him
We continued our relationship from that grade 7 January to the July after our first year of university
I stayed in love with that boy for all that time I never thought we'd separate
I had scrapbooks, scrapbook after scrapbook in my room with different themes
Our wedding our baby girl our baby boy our honeymoon our twins (if we had them, boy boy or girl boy or girl girl) our retirement our jobs our vacations our home
I had it all played out carefully in my head and those scrapbooks of mine he didn't know about those though they were my secret
And one day in that July he said he didn't love me anymore that spark had disappeared a month or two earlier he said he couldn't see me as beautiful anymore he couldn't see my glow anymore he couldn't see me anymore
But of course he couldn't see my broken heart either
I had kept in touch with Tegwyn all these years Lily had a boy to herself too Tegwyn couldn't believe it but I couldn't believe it more than she couldn't believe it
It was all so sudden but of course, nothing lasts long
