The
Love
&
Life
of
Ashlee Keesling♥
Chapter
1
"Who here has ever been in
love?"
My teacher, Mr. Mason asked the whole Grade 8 class this
morning in homeroom. But I couldn't stop thinking about
it. I mean, practically the entire class (though blushing)
raised their hands. Except me.
"Ashlee, you must of been in love once, at
least." They all said.
But it was true, I've never been. Being only thirteen,
did I honestly have to be in love? Was it ruled that as
soon as you became a teenager, you MUST have fallen in
love? I didn't think so.
"Let's find you someone to love!" my
supposedly 'best friend' Brandie had said after
that embarrassing discussion was done.
"Of course, because falling in love is easy." I
had told her. Her face was disapproving, but I just ignored
it.
"It should be, now let's go find you
someone." she smiled, and waited for the bell.
"He's cute! OH MY GOSH, what about him?
Actually, I'd save him for me..."
"Brandie, please shut up and stop. Please.
" I whispered.
Walking through my school's hallways were hard enough
without Brandie stalking boys out for me.
She shook my shoulders, and yelled "Ashlee Keesling, I
am finding you someone to love, whether you like it or
NOT!"
"BRANDIE EVANS, " I exclaimed "PLEASE, THE
RIGHT GUY WILL COME."
And to my surprise, he did. Right then. It wasn't like
a movie, but somehow slow-motion was taking place, and I
felt my cheeks burn hot red.
"Ash? You oka- Oh. So, you're looking more in the
Cedrick direction. Maybe that's a little too
much for you... Now, oh look! There's Danny,he's
pretty cute, huh?"
I heard her, but I just couldn't respond. That boy
literally took my breath away. Wavy jet onyx hair flowed to
his ears, and his steel blue eyes looked at my curiously.
My head snapped back into focus.
"Ash...?"
"Oh, yeah Brandie, sorry. "
Her golden blonde eyebrows scrunched over her green eyes. I
mean, she was gorgeous. I was completely jealous, but I
just looked at her with just as much wonder, anyway.
"You like Cedrick, don't you?" she smiled her
megawatt smile. " Aww that's so cute! But he's
totally out of you're league."
As I said before, Brandie was "supposedly" my
best friend. I frowned.
"No." I quickly replayed.
"Uh, yes, you do. Completely smitten."
"Aha, no." I rolled my eyes.
"Fine."
"Uh," I blushed " is he new here?"
"Yeah, I don't know where he came from,
though..." she looked at me again. "Ah, you so
love him."
"No, I don't!" I said, for the last time that
day.
But that was a lie.
I totally
did.
