• so i had this best friend, his name was josh. We had been friends since we were young, and i didn't really like him more then a friend until we both went into10th grade. He was becoming this amazing guy, and everyday i would fall for him more and more. I tried really hard not to let that get in the way of our friendship. It was working up until this year. i began to try to avoid him because he was really getting to me, and it was hard for me to control my flirting around him. of course my other friends knew that i liked him, and they decided to tell him. I got a call from him one afternoon, and he asked me why i didn't tell him that i liked him, and he would of rather heard it from me then my friends. he hung up then, and left me in tears. i hated myself at that point, i should of been honest with him, and i decided to go over to his house, because he was my best friend and i didn't want to loose him over this. I rang his door bell, and his mom answered. She told me that josh was upstairs, and i headed up to his room.
    i opened his door

    me: josh, i need to talk to you
    josh: what?
    me: I'm sorry i didn't tell you that i liked you more then a friend, and i just didn't want to ruin our friendship. your the only guy i can talk to about anything, and we've been friends since we were really little and if i told you that i liked you, i was afraid it would all fall apart
    josh: well, good news for you, i like you more then a friend too. your so beautiful and i just was afraid like you. But i still wish you told me, and not have your best friend tell me the reason why you don't talk to me anymore was because you had a crush on you.
    me: well, i really am sorry joshie. you know that you mean the world to me, and i just hope that things can be OK now.
    josh: i'd like you take you on a date, and see where things end up. i really think that we could be good together, and i hope you would like to try us out.
    me: i would like to see where we go too, and i think because we have such a strong friendship we could be good together.
    josh: i'm glad, now what were you doing these past weeks?
    me: thinking about you, doing school stuff, avoiding my favorite person in the world<3
    josh: i knew that, but i still wish you hadn't been avoiding me, i missed you a lot!
    me: oh, your adorable<33

    so things were going well, but of course something was about to get in the way, and it wasn't what i expected to get in the way.

    josh took me out that night, and we had wonderful time. It was everything i hoped it would be. when i got home, Jessie my other best friend, messaged me.

    Jessie: hey Sam, uh i need to talk to you
    me: yes?
    Jessie: uh, i know that you and josh are best friends, has he said anything about liking me?
    me: no, why?
    Jessie: i like him a lot, and he always flirts with me in chemistry
    me: oh, i don't know. well i gotta go do homework

    i could tell her that josh and i were on the verge of getting into a relationship, but i didn't want to kill her hopes. i also didn't know if josh wanted us to tell everyone about us, and i had already hurt him. i couldn't afford to loose him. For once i felt like things were OK in life again.
    the next day, josh met me at my locker. I told him about jessie, and he told me that i had nothing to worry about. i also asked him if i should keep us a secret or could we tell everyone. he told me he would rather wait, only because he liked me to much, and he didn't want everyone in the school to get into our business. I wasn't going to let Jessie take my man, and Jessie was coming up to josh right now. I decided to leave, i didn't want to hear what Jessie had to say.

    Jessie: hey SAM and josh whats up?
    me: i was just leaving, josh I'll see u at lunch
    josh: right, bye
    me: bye bye
    Jessie: so josh, whats new?
    josh: uh nothing, just glad to have SAM talking to me again
    Jessie: i know, what happen to you guys?
    josh: its complicated, but whats up?
    Jessie: nothing, i was wondering if you wanted to go to homecoming with me?
    josh: oh, I'm sorry, i think i am going to just go with a bunch of my friends
    Jessie: oh maybe we'll be in the same group then
    josh: yeah maybe, well i gotta go to math. take care. see you tomorrow in chem

    josh met up with me at lunch, and told me everything about Jessie. i asked him if he had even thought about saying yes, and he told me he didn't want to go with anyone but me. I really wanted to tell everyone, i knew it would make thing better. Josh promised we could tell eveyone before homecoming, which was in a week. I really was happy that me and josh were finally being more then friends. i really liked him, and he seemed to really like me. We decided to walk around where no one was, and he did something i never expected.
    he sat me down, and asked me if he could talk to me.

    josh: hey SAM, i was wondering if you would be my girlfriend?
    me: yeah joshie, of course<33
    josh: awesome, you know maybe we could just tell everyone.
    me: really?
    josh: yeah its about time, we showed them that we are meant for each other
    me: joshie, your so wonderful.
    josh: come on, lets go tell everyone

    we walked over to our friends.
    josh began to speak
    josh: hey guys, you know how SAM and i haven't been taking the past couple of weeks?
    them all: yeah, its good to see you guys being friends again
    Jessie: yeah, it is
    josh: well things were complicated, as most of you know, SAM likes me a lot
    them all: isn't it obvious
    josh: sh sh, well i like her a lot too, and starting today, me and her are going to be a couple
    them all: congrats guys! you guys are cute together
    Jessie: oh.
    josh: yeah, shes always been my girl, and now i can officially call her my girl
    me: aw baby, come here. we hugged.

    i loved being with joshie, and being with him as a couple seemed to be amazing. i felt like we were really mean to be. we were seniors, and maybe getting together right now would really show us that we wanted our friendship and more to really last forever.

    josh and i were going good, it was like we were still best friends, but we would be more like girlfriend and boyfriend. i was beginning to fall in love with him, and he seemed to be on teh same page with me. it was on our 4th month, that we both told each other that we loved each other. jessie wasn't in our way anymore, she saw we were in love, and there really wasnt anything that could or would tear us apart. our parents loved us being together, when we were younger our dads always joked about us becoming lovers and stuff. and they were always joking about becoming brother in- laws.

    things were good, and it was the end of senior year, we were going off to college, and we would be a part, but we'd be able to visit each other ont eh weekends. he loved me and loved him, it was all meant to be.

    today, me and josh are happily married with 3 kids. i like to hope that this love story gives others hope no to give up on someone they love. heart
