dddddiiiiiiinnnnnnnngggggggggggg...
The class bell rang. Jameson entered the hallway looking for her beloved. David had to be there somewhere. She had been looking for him for the past few days. There were only 500 people in the high school. Surely she would see him at some point. Maybe she would need to go out of her way to find him.
Desperate to catch a glimpse of the guy she loved for the past five years, Jameson looked up and down the halls; searched to no avail. David was avoiding her. She knew it. She had done something wrong three years ago and had been paying for it ever since.
David had started seeing someone new. A girl named Samantha. Perhaps, Jameson could track down Samantha and find David that way. Then he would have to see her - talk to her. Now, where was this Samantha? Maybe she had the same hobbies he did, maybe she was in Weld Shop.
Jameson walked down the hall and made it to the Weld Shop just before the second bell rang. In the back was a girl she didn't recognize. She had long, loose brown curls, and a nicely curved body. Enough weight not to be skinny or fat. She was a little short, but David always liked shorter girls. Something about being able to protect them.
Jameson took the open seat next to the mystery girl. "Hi, are you Samantha?"
"Yeah, how'd you know? Do I know you?"
"No, I know David. We were friends once."
"Oh, well. He's going to pick me up from class, maybe we could all chat." Samantha said with some concern in her voice. She had picked up on Jameson's use of the word friend and was suspicious and worried.
The bell rang, Samantha rose to leave and motioned for Jameson to join her. Jameson's heart started thumping. She would finally see David again. It had been so long since the last time. They left the Weld Shop, but no David in sight.
They walked down a long corridor, which had a sharp turn at the end. Would he be around the corner? As they approached the corner, Jameson held her breath. She had been waiting for too long. They turned the corner together, and Jameson stopped. There he was, with his friends. The same friends he had always had. The ones who played football with him and had inside jokes she would never understand. He didn't even see her yet.
Samantha had disappeared. She no longer mattered, therefore she was no longer there. David's friends disappeared too. David was now looking at her. He smiled. It was the same smile he had smiled five years ago. It crushed Jameson's heart. She could no longer help herself. She rushed into his open arms. David lifted her up so she was in a reversed piggy back ride. That had always been her favorite way to hug David.
David spun them around, hugging Jameson at the same time. Jameson stared into his eyes and knew nothing else mattered. Their lives would forever be intertwined and their love would be there forever now that they were together again.
David's mouth came crushing down on hers. It felt as if the world exploded and endless possibilities came to life in the aftermath. As their lips separated they both whispered so quietly only each other could hear. "I love you."
The End
