A LOVE NOT MINE

Via Thompson had always had a crush on Landon Myers. She truly could never remember a time when it wasn't him. All her friends had a new crush every single week, but for Via it seemed as if she was doing something wrong, since she only ever had eyes for him. Via was a quiet girl who sat at the back of the class, never raised her hand, did her work and immediately left the room as soon as the bell rang. Landon was one of the smartest boys in the whole grade who had a small group of friends but was friendly to everyone. She had never officially made a move on Landon or even showed that she had an interest in him. To her showing interest was looking over in his direction when he wasn't looking, laughing loudly when they were in the same room in hopes he'd see her big smile, and simply acting like he wasn't even there. He only noticed her smile a few times, but those times would follow her throughout her life. Let's start at the beginning.
