Different: A Twist in Time

July 18, 2013- Falling. That was all she felt. Not forward, but backward. All that emotion she'd built up seemed to taunt her. She thought she'd found him, he was hers for the taking. But she was wrong. Love like that was only meant for fairy tales and "Once Upon a Time." The taste of love to her was bitter, it had a scent of hurt and forgetfulness. Reality had played it's way back into the shallow hole that seemed to be her heart. Life had mocked her once again, and for that she hated it.


 June 28, 2013- Happiness seemed to be slipping from her. Being with Jake was getting harder and harder; life just wouldn't stay out of the way. Lucy found herself fighting for moments to see him, but her attempts were useless. This wasn't how things were suppose to be. No no, this was all meant to be easy. They meet, fall in love, have so much time it's as if the earth stopped moving. The battle for an inch in his life was not part of her exotic romance story she'd thought up at all, and it wasn't welcomed graciously.

 May 16, 2013- Perfection. That was the only word to describe her feelings. No longer did Lucy have to hide behind her wall of emotions; she was free. Long walks on the beach, fingers laced together, and talking for hours on end. This was her new life with him, and she didn't seem to have a care in the world. Everything was right.

April 26, 2013- No words. No words could describe how she felt the day he said he cared for her too. Was this real, or was this just another fantasy a fingertip away from reality? She didn't care. All she knew is that moment right there she'd fallen for him, and there was absolutely no turning back.

 March 20, 2013- There's no way this could really be happening. This "friendship" she'd made up in her mind seemed almost surreal. She didn't want it that way. Lucy was so blinded by her "promises of friendship" that she failed to notice the lie within her own words. She was falling for him, and there was nothing she could do to stop it.


February 23, 2013- No longer was Lucy going on dates with any other boys. Jake. He was everything to her. Other boys and heart breaks didn't seem to matter when she was with him. Being herself was easy. Messing up and falling weren't fears anymore. The thought had actually become somewhat of a joke to her. She knew nothing could every ruin this!


 January 14, 2013- Friends, that's all they were. Two best friends that did EVERYTHING together. No chemistry at all. She'd tell him everything, and in return he'd be someone who was just there for her. The thought of them even falling for each other was repulsive, couldn't be possible. Love was meant for the lonely, right?

December 17, 2012- Lucy wasn't sure if Jake was interested in her, or if she even liked him! All she knew is that from the moment he said hello, she could tell there was something different about him. Something different that made her feel alive and happy again. No guy had ever made her feel that way before. Ever.
