First Love Hurts

Cyrus!

Ah... My heart still flutters hearing that name!

Elizabeth closed her eyes as she remembered that charming boy she met one night on her way back from school. Although Archie always warned her not to get close to him, her curiosity got the better of her and she slept with him.

And, she fell in love with him!

He was like a bright light. Like a pitiful moth, she tried to get closer to him, but she was scorched every time she tried to get closer and yet she couldn't give up. He left and years passed. She thought she'd get over him, but no matter how many men she embraced, those blue eyes were the ones that lingered in her heart and his gentle smile he had for her when he kissed her forehead that night still gave butterflies in her stomach. She thought when he returned years later, she'd have a chance but got rejected once again. She created a rumour and thought that would interest him, but he never gave a glance at her.

First love!
