“Wake up Cassy!” an ecstatic Chelsea screamed into my ears, Chelsea has been my best friend since freshman year in high school and is now my college roommate. “What do you want Chelsea?” I grumbled as I tried to untangle myself from the sheets. “Time to get you a valentine, you were pretty before, but but the new you is stunning, no sane guy will be able to resist you!” My eyes flash with pain as I replay what has been engraved into my mind, “Fatty Cassy” he chants as tears well up in my baby blue eyes, as I run away with blurry vision. “Cassy snap out of it! I don’t know how I could be that insensitive and mention those dreadful years, please forgive me!” Chelsea pleads as her eyes turn glassy. “It’s alright, I needed his constant bullying to motivate me to achieve how I am now.” I say slowly as I embrace her. “Thanks so much Cassy!

Cassy I’ve always loved you, I just didn’t know how to get your attention, what I did was down-right cruel, please forgive me?” he asked with pleading eyes. I took a shaky breath and said, “ Brady I’ve missed you so much, I’ve always had feelings for you, I just pushed them away because I never thought the person who hurt me most would ever care for me.” “I know and that was my major screw-up, you suffered for my stupidity.” he said softly, with frustration at himself. “Cassy will you be my Valentine?” he asks nervously while holding out the teddy bear. I paused for a second before I grabbed the bear and hugged Brody. “Yes Brody I’d love too!” I whisper.
