I know what you’re thinking. It’s
unconventional to want a man nine years older than you. It’s inconvenient to
crush on your dearest friend’s older brother. It’s silly to pine after a man
for six years. It’s cliché to lust after a celebrity. It’s pathetic to fall in
love with a man who barely knows you exist.
I know what you’re thinking because I’ve
thought it all, too. And yet that hasn’t stopped me from wanting Blake
Campbell. Charming, gorgeous, brilliant, kind, selfless – Blake is everything
I’ve ever wanted, but he doesn’t see me that way. In fact, he hardly noticed me
until one night.
Traumatic events brought us together for
the first time, but then he tossed me aside. I know it’s irrational, but I
wanted him up until the moment he left me lying there alone.
When his eyes finally open and he finds
out I’ve left, will it be too late?
Prologue
Some
people trip over a crack in the sidewalk and meet the love of their life. Some
people are walking down the street, lost in a text message when they literally
stumble into their destiny. Others don’t have romance on their radar when they
fall off the deep end and into the relationship that makes them whole. In other
words, love finds them and not the other way around.
I’ve
never been one of those people.
Romantic. Dreamer. Idealist. I’ve been called them all. Those nicknames never
bothered me because I knew all the way to the marrow of my bones that the love
of my own life was not too far away.
In
my mind, the scenario was complete.
Our
eyes would meet across a crowded room.
No,
that’s not right.
Let’s
take it from the top.
He’d
become aware of me first, unable to wrench his eyes away from my glossy back
waves (thank you Italian heritage and superb genetics). They would tumble
around my shoulders elegantly and I’d be wearing an outfit that elongates my
short legs (stubs, as my cousins called them. Rude.).
In
my mind, the moment I meet him is flawless.
Reality
had a different idea.
Because
when I found the man I knew I was destined to be with me, he hardly noticed me.
Every time after, he saw me as nothing more than a friend to his sister. Most
times we interacted he scarcely paid attention to me, if only to provide
pleasantries.
Despite
all that, my gut keeps telling me that I’m meant to be with him. I’m not giving
up. No matter what.
