I wrote this today in creative writing class. There's a story in here somewhere ^^

What is this feeling? The fluttering heartbeat, the loss of breath, the sweating of palms. Why am I so much happier than I've been in a long time? Why does my heart lighten when I get a text? So many questions, and yet only one answer-love.
People throw the word around like it's nothing, but until you know the feeling and all its uncomfortable yet wonderful side effects, you have no right to use the word. I love quite a few people in this world, but never have a given my love to a man. Is it possible to love at such a young age? Most people would laugh at me and call me silly, but the feeling is undeniable. Why does his voice make me grin, his words make me feel beautiful? Why does he make me feel like I'm the most special person alive?
It's a confusing thing, this love. I don't think I've felt this way about anyone before. Infatuation, yes, but never love. Never before have I felt this desire, this need to be held; to be wrapped in his arms and to fall asleep against him.

That's what I have so far. Maybe I'll add more as I write it
