the greatest love story ever told wasn't fictional like the titanic nor was it a perfect fairy tale. it's real. Okay, i wouldn't say its the GREATEST love story ever told, but its the best in my mind. it's not always corny, sweet, or cheerful. It contains hurt, jealousy, as well as the strength to overcome. It's OUR story.

So it begins...

The first weekend of May in the year of 2008. A high school badminton tournament was taking place in the small town of Cochrane, roughly 30 mins outside of Calgary, Alberta. Day one of the competition saw many great games and friendships blossoming and when the days festivities started winding down everyone returned to their respective hotels. Among these people were a group of elite "club" players. The girls decided to have their own little party consisting of watching shitty much tv shows like Teila Tequila while munching on chips and other snacks. There was the usual girl talk about boys and gossip but underneath all that one of the girls was struggling to finish an IB assignment on her laptop. Jolene, the "main character" of the story, glances over to see that her friend was not actually doing her homework but instead on msn webcaming with a really cute boy. She turns to her friend telling her she thought he was hot, thinking that that'd be the last she ever saw of him. Later on she ended up telling the boy to add her on msn without really knowing why and then she stole her friend laptop and started talking to him, She was always so eager for his next response. Her heart was racing but she didn't know why and she found herself laughing and smiling at everything that boy did. The other girls in the room started teasing her and the boy, body=checking her out of the way a few times. They ended up talking till the early hours of the morning and when they final bid goodnight jolene couldn't think about anything else but him. she was so giddy inside and was so excited to talk to him again.

One of jolene's friends ended up putting the boys phone number in her phone as well as send him a few texts. So the boy and jolene started texting and as soon as jolene got home she hopped on her computer to talk to the boy. They learnt more about each other,falling little deeper for each other as each moment passed. The following day they talked on the computer for 14 hours! The boy kept pestering jolene to get a web cam so he could see her but she was shy and didn't think that she was that pretty to look at. Every time they talked Jolene hoped that the boy would say he wanted to meet her in person as she was too shy to ask him, She didnt believe that good things happened to her so she was content at being happy for the moment living in her dream like world but what she didnt know was that this wasnt a dream at all. Eventually the boy told her that he was sick of all the "maybe" they'll meet business and arranged for a meeting a week from the day the first started talking. Jolene was so nervous. Of course this is what she wanted but she was scared that she wasnt going to be what the boy expected.

When the day finally came that they would meet the girl was horrified and so excited at the same time. She wanted the boy to like her, like she liked him. Being shy and bashful she hid when she saw the boy but eventually came out to greet him. He smiled at her and they proceeded getting onto a bus to take them to the movies. On the bus jolene was scared that the boy didnt like her so she hid behind her backpack. The boy, not seeming nervous at all told her to stop hiding. He put his arm around her and grabbed her hand. The girl's cheeks flushed as she held onto his hand, and it just felt so right. Jolene and the boy talked about themselves as they ate some subway. they went to see the new movie iron man that came out and held each others hands through the whole thing. Both of them received text messages from their friends wondering how their "date" was going. At the end of the day they decided that they were "together" and this was just the beginning.
