Jonathan Gates was just that—forbidden. He was everything I could ever want in a man: charming, a great listener, open-minded, and funny. It also didn't hurt that he was easy on the eyes.
We'd been through a lot together: breakups, makeups, firsts, lasts, and anything else you can imagine. I was once told he was my soul mate, but I refused to believe that.
I didn't want to love him. I didn't want to fall for him because...he was my best friend!
But I did, and I fell for him hard. I was in love with my best friend, and it was time he knew how I really felt.
MICHELLE’S JOURNAL
Age: Twenty
Journal Entry: Why does this keep
happening to me?
Dear Journal,
Why does this keep happening to
me? Why is it that every single time he leaves I’m completely devastated and
unable to fully recover, but the minute he comes back to me it’s like nothing
ever happened? It’s like my heart is playing a cruel joke on me and picks back
up where things left off.
He is the only person that could
affect me deep down in my core and it scares me. It makes me feel like he is
the only person I truly belong to, and maybe it wouldn’t be so bad if he’d stop
breaking my heart.
If he could see through my eyes,
just once, maybe he wouldn’t hurt me again. Maybe he wouldn’t toy with me, and
maybe he’d believe that we were soul mates. When Sarah told me that all those
years ago, I laughed; I didn’t believe in it then, but I’m convinced now.
There has to be some fate or
strong pull from the universe that’s destined us to be together, and if this
was the sign to wake us both up to smell the roses, then I needed more time
before I’d accept it.
Time. I’ll give you time, Johnny,
but you’ll have to work for it.
