For what me and him were worth, no one would have expected an outcome any better nor worse then what happened
The girl with the good reputation
Falling in love with the boy who was known for playing everyone
What did she expect? For him to be different, of course.
Every morning for months she woke up and looked in the mirror
All that she wished was that she looked like her.
That girl was pretty
Had long hair
Beautiful eyes
Gorgeous body
All she had was smarts, wore dumb glasses, average length hair, and "pretty" depending on the guy
No one looked at her in awe
But they looked at her like that.
Every day she wondered why she wasn't enough.
She loved him more, made sure he was okay, and was completely in love with him
She would give her life for him
But she didn't get invited to his house, another girl did
He didn't ask her out, he asked another girl
I knew all the small things about him and she didn't.
We were "just friends", kissed as "just friends", and flirted on the down low.
Never a "regular" conversation as "just friends" didn't always have the thought of kissing each other in the back of their minds
It wasn't okay but it was still having him till one day she woke up mad she wasn't her.
One day she stopped double texting him
One day she stopped thinking about him the whole day
He didn't know all the small things about her
He followed this girl on Spotify but didn't know her comfort music was from Billie Eillish.
He spent hours on the phone "as friends" with her but still didn't know she enjoyed seeing him in person more.
He watched her draw flowers in art but still didn't know that her favorite were roses, but not just the red ones, the white ones as well.
He watched her double text and not answer, not knowing she was falling apart inside
He knew she was smart but didn't know that she would do extra tiring work just to help him with homework
He knew that she would give him her body, but didn't know that she mainly did it to not be accused of being a coward, not being able to get him off, and she just wanted him to be happy and not need other girls.
One day she stopped asking to call,
Left him alone when he asked.
One day she finally realized that even the possibility of him still loving her deep down was there but he would always be too ashamed to admit it.
One day she woke up and didn't think about him,
Didn't text him as soon as she woke up.
One day, she started to get over him, started to heal.
One day, she realized that she was worth more then his treatment.
She believed that one day, she would find someone that would do this much for her.
For them.
