Gwen's pov!
isn't weird how you`re 16 and you haven't had a boyfriend yet? not for me...kinda. i would like it if i had someone who actually cares about me. why do i say that? its because my parents are divorced,neither of them love me. i`m a loner at my school,so i have no friends. its like i`m an outcast or something. people just take me as a weird goth girl. i`m cool with that,cause that's what i am. i sat outside in the grass listening to my ipod. i was listening to solo by Iyaz. then a cute looking teenager zoomed passed me on his skateboard. he looked like a popular kid. black shaggy hair,green eyes,blue jeans and a plain dark green shirt. he looked back at me and smiled. i did the same. but he wasn't looking where he was going so when he drove over a huge rock he lost his balance and fell. i ran over to him. "are you okay?"i asked. he sat up. "yeah,i`m okay."he said. he had a small cut on his arm. "do you want anything to clean that up?"i said. he shook his head. "its just a scratch."he said. "well..i gotta go..bye."i said. "later."he got back up and zoomed off quickly on his skateboard. he was very cute. he seemed like he had a kind soul. i wonder if i`ll see him again.

this time,
i wonder what it feels like,
to find the one in this life,
the one we all dream of
but dreams just aren't enough
so i`ll be waiting for the real thing,
i know it by the feeling
the moment when we are meeting
will play out like a scene
straight off the silver screen
so i`ll be holdin' my breath,
right up to the end
until that moment when
i find the one that i spend forever with...

i walked into the noisy hallways of the school. everyone looked at me with either an angry or "you look like a freak" expression. i just shrugged it off and got my books out of my locker and went to first period. i sat down in my chair and started to copy the agenda. "class,we have a new student."my boring teacher says. "please say hello to Trent."the teacher said. "hi Trent."all the girls say in a dreamy way. i look up and its the same guy i saw yesterday. he looked at me and grinned. i blushed and put my book in my face to avoid eye contact. "take a seat by Gwen Grimsley."you just had to pick me. there are 3 open seats,and it just HAD to be me. he tapped my shoulder. "hm?"i said working out math problems. "what page are we supposed to be on?"he asked. "147."i said. "thanks."he got to work. i kept taking glances at his handsome face. i felt something tingle inside my heart. i think i like him. finally the bell rang and it was off to another boring class. the day was...okay. at least i had all my classes with Trent. i`ll just keep it to myself that i like him. right when i was about to walk out the door,i bumped into someone. "hello to you too."i said rubbing my head. "sorry."a soft voice said. i looked up at the green eyes of Trent. i blushed madly. he helped me up. "i-i`m sorry..my fault."i said. "no,i wasn't looking where i was going."he apologized. "its okay."i sighed. he helped me gather up my stuff. "um..thank you."i stammered. "welcome."he said. i started to walk out,but he grabbed my arm. "i think you are cute when you blush."he whispered in my ear. i dropped my stuff again. he chuckled and picked it up. i laughed nervously and took my stuff and ran out. i unlocked the door to my car and put my backpack in the passenger seat. when i got out of the car Trent was getting on his motorcycle. he drove out of the parking lot slowly,but not without winking at me. i giggled and got into my car and drove home. i took a shower and went to my room to lay down. i got out my sketch book and started to draw. guess what i drew. Trent. he was so perfect for me to like..but i don't think he has an interest in me. i heard something tap against my window. i opened it and looked around outside. "hey beautiful!"i looked down and i saw Trent. "hi,what are you doing here?"i whispered. "wanted to ask you if you wanted to.."he trailed off scratching the back of his head. "wondering if you....wanted to..go out sometime..like Saturday."he said. i couldn't believe it. the fist person to actually like me. "sure Trent."i said. he blushed. "say 8:30?"he said. "tomorrow is Saturday,right?"i asked. he nodded. "sounds great."i said. "that's cool..good night."he said. "night."i said. he blew a kiss at me and walked off. i smiled to myself and shut my window. even though i had only known him for two days now,it feels like i spent a life time with him. i lie down on my bed. i really,really like Trent. i finally know what it feels like to be loved.

cause nobody wants to be the last one there,
cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares,
someone to love with my life in their hands,
there's gotta be somebody for me like that

cause nobody wants to go it on their own,
and everyone wants to know they`re not alone,
somebody else that feels the same somewhere,
there's gotta be somebody for me out there

i woke up at 9:00 am and just spent my day jogging around the neighborhood. then at 8 i went inside and got ready for the date. i just put on my normal clothes,nothing fancy. i sat on the couch in the living room to wait for him. the doorbell rang. i opened the door. "hey babe."he said. "hi."i giggled. "ready to go?"he asked. i nodded. "i`ll be home at 9:40!"i said to my parents and shut the door. "what are we doing?"i asked. "i was going to take you to dinner,if that's okay with you."he said. what a gentlemen. "its okay."i said. he smiled and lead me over to his motorcycle. he drove to a nice place that even a goth would love. "i like it."i said. "i knew you would."he said. we had a great dinner by ourselves. it was very romantic-ish. after we ate he decided we should take a walk. he took my hand and we started to walk around the city. it was really active at night. since it was New York,i`m pretty sure it would have been that way. it started to rain,so he took off his jacket and put it over our heads. this date felt great. standing next to the person you love. i walked closer to him. the rain started to get much worse,so we sat on a bench under a building. i love it when it rains. wet,damp,and dark. just how a goth loves. rain stopped and the moon glowed out onto the earth. i didn't want to leave just yet. i`m really enjoying this. Trent's body close to mine,smelling his scent. so warm,so much love. maybe i found the person i have been looking for.

tonight,
out on the street,out in the moonlight
and dammit,this feels too right,
its just like deja vu
me standin' here with you
so i`ll be holdin' my breath,
could this be the end?
is it that moment when
i find the one that i spend forever with?

i felt the urge inside me to kiss him..but i don't know if i should...i just couldn't hold it in. i grabbed his shirt and pulled him in for a kiss. it was the best and first kiss i ever had. i pulled away and looked at him lovingly. i saw a shooting star in his eyes. i wish i could be with him for a long time.

cause nobody wants to be the last one there,

it has been 14 years and we are still going out. i really have a strong feeling for Trent. i think he has one for me too. he treats me better than anyone else and he always puts me before other people. Trent told me he wants to take me for a picnic today. when we got to the park,he didn't say anything at all. we just ate in silence. then i rested my eyes on the soft blanket for about 14 minutes. it was a very peaceful date. but what i still don't know,is that who will be my keeper...and i don't think Trent wants to be it.

ooh
you cant give up.
lookin' for the diamond in the rough,
(because you never know)
when it shows up,
(make sure you`re holdin' on)
cause it could be the one,
the one you`re waiting on

cause nobody wants to be the last one there,
cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares,
someone to love with my life in their hands,
there's gotta be somebody for me...

i looked over at Trent and his face was all red and his eyes read nervous or desperate...but of what? "Gwen?"he said. "yes babe?"i asked. "i know we only known each other for 14 years now...and i think its the best time to do this..."he stopped and got down on one knee. my eyes widened. i didn't know he loved me that much. "Gwen Grimsley,will you marry me?"he said. i smiled. "i will marry you."i said. he put the ring on my finger and lifted me up and twirled me around,kissing me warmly. a few tears came out of my closed eyes as we made out. we both pulled away. "i love you."i said putting my hand on his red cheek. "i love you too."that was the first time he ever said that to me. i hugged him tight. "would you like to watch the stars,Mrs. Adams?"he said playfully. "sure darling."i said. we lied back down on the blanket and watched the stars. Trent had a arm wrapped tight around me. i was laying on my side close to him with my hand on his chest. i saw the same shooting star the night we went out for the first time. thank you for making my wish come true. the star looked like it winked at me. i smiled to myself and continued to watch the night grow darker and darker.

Ohhhhhh
nobody wants to go it on their own,
and everyone wants to know they`re not alone,
is somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
there's gotta be somebody for me out there

nobody wants to be the last one there,
and everyone wants to feel like someone cares,
is somebody else that feels the same somewhere?
there's gotta be somebody for me out there...
