The Crush That Haunts Her

Raven's POV I can't believe it's finally over, and I am graduating today. And the one thing I wanted to do. I didn't do it. It's too late to confess my love to my crush. So I am walking fast because I look up and I see everyone getting ready and looking happy. Some are looking sad for the last day of being a high schooler, anyway I am walking down the hall towards the rest of the Senior classmates, but when I come around the corner, I see Drake and his buddies. They look me up, and down then they bust out laughing. I was thinking about what they were laughing about, and then I felt someone nudge me on the shoulder. I look up into the eyes that just prompted me. I hear, "Move out of the way, will you, darling." "Sure," I say. I looked down, then I sigh and start to move on foot again. When I moved out of the way, But then I felt someone hold onto my wrist. I am like, please don't yell at me or put me down today Drake, you have no idea, but I am in love with you, I thought. "Please don't hurt me today, Not the day we are Graduating from High School," I say... He slips a piece of paper into my palm. I look up, and he is smirking at me and says, "Meet me later, Raven, "He whispers in my ear, then I look into his eyes.! Wow! Such amazing Grey eyes I had ever seen. I thought, then I nodded a yes. I nod my head and then give him a big smile. I am nobody. Why would he give me that piece of paper if he isn't dating the most popular girl in school.? I thought anyway I look down then I guess I don't have anything but brains and a big heart. He would never go for me. I am glad I don't have pimples on my face because I've been taking care of my skin better and wearing girly dresses and wearing make-up, but I am a tiny thing with no curves at all. Grrr, I wish I had the curves that would drive him crazy. Later on, I waited after Graduation for Drake. He never showed. Still, his buddies came and videotaped it on the cell phones, and then they said they are sending it to everyone that is in her graduating class and saying, "You thought our boy would meet you; you are so gullible. It's so sad." Aaron Jones, his buddy, spoke into my ear, then he was touching my arm lightly, and then he was smiling at me. I was like, what on earth did I ever do to them. I noticed my best friend was running out towards where I was out, trying to stay strong while Drake's friends were making fun of me and taping me. "You jerk, stay away from her." I noticed it was Leka saying it and glaring at Jones over there and Black. I was like, why did that have to do this? Why did Drake Boggs such a d**k? "Wait, Raven, wait for me, but I didn't. I left, and I even went to my best friend, and I can hear her giving Aaron a word full. If I weren't sad right now, I would be laughing at him for getting chewed out. I ran away and never looked back. I moved out of my town and went to Stanford, and got my Ph.D. Psychology Then, I relocated to LA. Now it's present-day five years later. I am cleaning the house from having my boyfriend and his friends over, and then I had the tv on, the news came on, and that is where when I saw it, It broke me to pieces. I felt my heart shattered to pieces looking at the paper, and it showed his picture. I was so shocked and cried and cried some more. Here is the obituary of Drake Boggs.
