Hope
©Poet of the Shadows AKA Shadowpoet
Chapter 1
"Two years passed from that eventful time. Hope had changed schools, and not much else eventful happened. Then one night while I was hanging out with friends I ran into her. Once again my life was about to change.
You see I started puberty earlier that year, and really started noticing girls. Hope was in every way MY dream girl. She was shorter then me (at the time, only by a couple of inches, but the difference in height became greater as we grew older). What hit me were her eyes, they were this shade of blue that cannot be explained except by the sky mixed with cobalt. She was, in every way, thoughtful, intelligent, and also seemingly shy.
On the other hand I was much the conversationalist. I spent the next 2 months trying to impress her and get the courage to ask her out. Once I finally did, she had said yes. She also asked me why it took me so long. I could never answer that, yet I changed a little that day.
I had noticed something, something I couldn't explain at the time. I still have trouble explaining it, because words lessen the meaning. Some would call this change 'magic', some would say 'telepathy', others empathy. All I knew was I could feel her thoughts and emotions. From that day on, I could finish her sentences, I knew when she was feeling hurt; I also knew when she was happy.
