• I remember when I first met you, you smiled at me.
    I rolled my eyes back at you, and made fun of you.
    I thought you'd never try and talk to me again, but you did.

    When we first started a conversation, you made a huge effort.
    I replied curtly with short answers, ignoring you every time I could.
    I thought you would never like me, but you did.

    I remember when we were with our friends, and you were nice to me.
    I laughed and acted like I was superior to you in front of mine.
    I thought you'd never ever approach me again, but you did.

    I remember when you asked me for my phone number after having given yours.
    I had never added yours, and gave you another version of mine.
    I thought you'd never put so much effort into a girl again, but you did.

    I remember when you took me apart from the group and asked me out.
    I screamed at you, told you to leave me alone and get a life.
    I thought you wouldn't take it seriously, but you did.

    I remember when I was cursing having ever met you, then I wish I never had.
    You ignored me every chance you could.
    I thought you were never going to forgive me for what I'd done, but you did.

    I remember when I apologized to you after school, and you opened your arms to me.
    I ran into them, giving you the biggest hug I could give.
    I thought you would never truly look at me the way you had, but you did.

    You asked me out one day after school, a red rose in your hand.
    You were so nervous I laughed, and said yes.
    I didn't think you wanted to be with me, but you did.

    I remember when we had our first date, you brought me to the beach.
    We ran and splashed each other.
    I didn't think you were going to kiss me, but you did.

    I remember our six month anniversary, you gave me a golden necklace with our initials.
    I gave you a jacket, and I felt really bad about it.
    I thought you wouldn't understand, but you did.

    I remember when I got upset because you were always busy.
    You said you had some things that needed to be dealt with, and that you would tell me soon.
    I thought you were going to leave me for another girl, but you didn't.

    I remember when you started acting strange, always saying you had to do something.
    You tried to see me less frequently, saying you were busy or sick.
    I thought you were getting sick of me, but you weren't.

    I remember when you finally told me, told me about the unexpected behaviour.
    You sat me down and told me about your cancer treatments.
    I didn't think you were that sick, but you were.

    I remember when you stopped going to school, and I got really worried.
    You called me later that day and assured me it was only more treatment.
    I thought you were telling me the truth, but you weren't.

    I remember arriving at school and hoping for you to appear at the door.
    Your empty seat made me nervous, and soon I found myself eating alone.
    I started losing hope for us, but you assured me it was okay.

    I finally found the courage to give your hospital a visit.
    I was going through the conversation in my head, thinking about what to say.
    I thought you'd be awake, but you passed away five minutes before I arrived.
