When we were younger I never thought I fall in love with you.
This part is how Jaxx and Willow meet.
It was the first summer day, and we were in the garden having a barbecue at a friend of my dad’s, Lucas.
The adults were partying, and the kids were playing. There was a bouncy castle, and the kids loved it, jumping around everywhere.
Come in Willow said Mia no said Willow.
“Come on now Willow,” said Mia I know you like my brother but it be so fun said Mia grabbing her hand and pulling her along.
Then she turned to the boys. “Can we join?”
“No, ew, girls,” said Rikki. “Only tough boys can join.”
Mia laughed. “Oh, so you’re the tough one, huh?”
Everyone laughed. Rikki turned red.
“Let us join, or we’ll fake cry,” said Mia.
“Thanks, brother,” said Mia. Jaxx rolled his eyes.
They spent the whole day playing together. Jaxx even asked Willow if she wanted to wrestle, and she said yes. They wrestled until the parents separated them because it was getting too serious.
Later, it was dark. We were inside, gaming. Willow sat on the couch with Mia.
“Don’t you want to join too?” Mia asked.
“No, you go ahead. I’ll just watch,” Willow said.
Mia went to play, and Willow stayed, quietly watching Jaxx.
It was a beautiful day, because after six years of house renovations, we could finally come over and see each other again.
Not the kids, though — I was going to see my kind-of-uncle Lucas again. I hadn’t spoken to or seen the kids from that birthday in six years. We had moved pretty far away back then, but today we were back for a barbecue.
I had changed a lot compared to six years ago. Back then, I was 12; now I was 18. But one thing hadn’t changed: I still didn’t talk to people unless I had to.
When we arrived, everyone greeted me, commenting on how tall I’d grown, that I was now a young woman, and asking if I had a boyfriend yet.
“You’re still young anyway,” they teased.
We both laughed — jokes like that had been around since we were little.
Then Sol, my kind-of-aunt, grabbed my hand and pulled me over to a boy with blue eyes and blond hair.
“Do you know him?” Sol asked.
“Sorry, Sol, I don’t know her,” Jaxx said. Sol walked away.
“Nice to meet you,” Jaxx added.
“Nice to meet you too,” I replied.
We smiled at each other and laughed, but both of us felt something.
Suddenly, I heard, “OMG, Willow!” I turned around — “OMG, Mia!” We ran toward each other and hugged.
“Why did Sol call you?” Rikki asked.
“Because she asked if I knew her,” Jaxx explained, pointing at me.
“Oh, is that Willow? She’s really grown up!”
“Do you know her?” Jaxx asked.
“Yes,” Rikki said. “She played with us when we were younger, and you even wrestled with her. But she doesn’t really talk much.”
“Is that her?” Jaxx asked, shocked.
“Yes,” Rikki said, laughing.
“Wow, girl, glow up!” said Mia.
“No, you, girl,” I replied.
“Good,” said Mia. “I’m here with my brother.”
“Brother? Which one?” I asked.
“That one,” Mia said, pointing at him.
“Is that him?” I asked, shocked.
“Do you still like him?” Mia laughed, teasing.
“You’re blushing,” Mia said.
“Cat got your tongue?” Rikki asked.
“Tease me one more time and I’ll throw you on the ground,” Jaxx said.
“You find her attractive, huh?” Rikki laughed.
“Yeah, I think I do,” Jaxx admitted.
“You’re six years late… she thought you were attractive back then!” Rikki said, laughing.
“What?” Jaxx asked, shocked.
“Yeah! I can’t believe she liked you all that time ago,” Rikki teased.
“Yeah, yeah, haha, very funny,” Jaxx said. “I’m warning you, Rikki.”
“It’s different now, huh?” Rikki asked.
“Yeah… actually, it is,” Jaxx said.
