Chapter 1: He Doesn't Know I Exist

Goodbye my friend
Hello heartache
It's not the end
It's not the same
Wish it didn't have to be this way but
You will always mean the world to me, love
Goodbye my friend
Hello heartache

Kim's POV

Was it really pathic how much I was in love with him? Yeah, I guess it was. Jared Thail. The sole object of my love and life for the past five years. Ironically, becoming the only thing relatable to a love life for me. What makes it even more depressing is that he has been in my class since kinder-garden. And at least one class in middle and high school. Sad thing is, he doesn't know that I even existed. Still doesn't to this day. Seriously, I have done projects with him and he didn't even speak a word to me, forcing me to cover whatever he didn't do. Not that I mind. I would do anything for Jared. Even if it broke my heart or made me sad; as long as Jared was happy. Once, I even heard Jared say, "Kim who?" Now is that pathic or what?

I am now a junior in high school and my feelings haven't changed. If they did was to only possibly become stronger as the years pass. My few friends tell me to give it up and move on, but they don't understand. They don't feel the pull between us. I doubt Jared feels it, but nerveless, it was there.

At the moment I was sitting in my world history class, listening to my iPod instead of the teacher. My headphones were covered by my hair, a wonderful ability only girls with long hair mastered. Currently, I was in a sad mood, and I had hoped that music would help, but no such luck. Jared hadn't been at school for the past three weeks. I was really worried about him. He was apparently sick, but with what? Cancer? And NO ONE SEEMED WORRIED! How long did a student have to be gone for people to start to get worried?! Seriously! I let out a huff, making a face as I continued to doodle little broken hearts on the side of my paper.

"It's nice to see you again here Mr. Thail. Do you have a pass?" Mr. Mallek asked. At the teacher's question I looked up from my doodles, not believing that I heard correctly. But there he was, standing in the doorway, backpack over one shoulder.

Oh. My. Gods. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Jared had grown like a foot, cut his hair, and had gained a ton of muscle. He looked even hotter, if that was possible. My jaw went slack at the sight of him. I think I even started drooling. I could see everyone else staring as well; the girls practically stripping the new eye candy and the guys glaring at him as they sized him up as completion for their girl. Jared had been good looking enough, but he wasn't the hottest guy in school. I myself thought he looked handsome and loved his heart. But that was before this strange transformation. Now, it was clear that Jared Thail leaped up the social ladder as one of the hottest guys in the school. Strangely, I felt a pang of jealousy in my heart when I thought about Jared with some other girl, the odds of him ending up with a popular girl rose by the second.

I caught myself in time to force myself to look away and stare at my desk. I was acting like I wanted everyone and their dog to find out about my "little" crush- or obsession if you prefer- on Jared. It's a secret I prefer to keep a secret.

Out of the corner of my eye, I watched Jared walk up to Mr. Mallek and hand him a pass. "Can I have the work I missed?" Jared asked.

"Yes, you can. See me after class. For the moment, take your seat and Kim will help you if you have any questions." Mr. Mallek said. Jared nodded his head and walked to his seat. The seat that was next to mine. I was surprised that I have a good grade in this class. Though it's probably only because I brought it up during the time Jared was gone. That, and the fact that Mr. Mallek helped me out a lot after school. I really needed it either way, with my dyslexia and AHAD. I got lucky these past three weeks that I already knew most of it really well. I could only hope that my luck held a little bit longer.

I kept my eyes down as Jared sat in his seat. The only moment movement I only really made was to flip to a different page that was free of any doodles of 'Jared & Kim 4ever', 'I 3 Jared', or my personal favorite, 'Mrs. Kimberly Thail'. If he ever saw that, I would die right then and there. Heat seemed to roll off him like he was a personal heater or something. Without really knowing that I did, I slid closer to him in order to soak up more of his heat. Mr. Mallek continued on with his lesson, one I did not pay attention to at all. Not, that I was really paying attention before... I pulled out my class-notes notebook and pretended to take notes. I had no close as to what I was writing. Jared pulled out his and dug around for a pen in his bag. I was about to offer mine to him- it happened to be my only writing utensil- when he found one at the bottom of his bag.

Mr. Mallek ended his lesson a few minutes before the bell. That's when Jared turned to me. "Uhhh… Kim… what did I miss while I was… Uhhh…. Sick?" He said uncertainly. What did he have to be uncertain about? He was Jared. He practically radiated confidence.

"You missed the Greeks and we're finishing up the Romans. You're really behind. It would be smart to get someone to tutor you." I answered, not believing that he was actually talking to me. But then again, Mr. Mallek basically forced him to do so. Once Jared got the information he needed, he would go back to ignoring me like usual. I looked up into Jared's eyes for the first time since he walked into class. I could swear that everything froze, even time. I wanted to savor this moment.

Not only had Jared made eye contact, he said my name and he acknowledged that I existed! Though, he was staring at me now like he was a blind man seeing color or the sun for the first time. We kept staring at each other until the bell rang, making me jump. I blushed, shoving my stuff into my bag quickly. I stood up, ready to dart out of the classroom, but that plan went down the toilet quickly. Mr. Mallek had come over to us. "Kim, can you wait a moment? I would like to talk to both of you." Mr. Mallek asked. I stayed where I was, my entire body on edge. It felt like I had somehow ended up in the Twilight Zone… and now I wanted things to go back to normal, regardless of how much I loved hearing my name roll off Jared's tongue. "What do you need Mr. Mallek?" I asked, wanting to get away as soon as possible. I was embarrassed, didn't know what to say, and the fact that he was still staring at me with his jaw open slightly was starting to creep me out.

"Jared, you're very behind. It'll be tough to catch up. I want you to go to tutoring after school for the next week or so. Since Kim is there most days, you can ask her if you have any questions."

Jared brightened at that. I smiled softly and blushed at the thought of spending time with him alone. But because of his recent creepy stares, I decided to try to find a quiet corner alone in the library instead. At most, I would give him a copy of my notes. That way, I would be helping him, but no conversation actually needed to be exchanged. Mr. Mallek wrote us passes to our next class and I shot out the room as quickly as I could. I was walking down the hall as quickly as I could and somehow Jared caught up to me. "Kim!" He said.

"What?"

"I don't know. I just like saying your name," He said, smiling. I liked him saying my name too; it sound perfect on his perfect lips. "Kim is a very beautiful name." Jared added, saying it like there was no way anyone could ever disagree with him. I blushed again. Why was he saying things like that? I thought he had his eye on the cheerleader Brianna. "Kim! Did hell freeze over? I never thought I'd see the day when you would skip class!" A voice called out. I stopped and I saw someone step away from the lockers he was leaning against.
