We were already in school by then. Your friends had made fun of me. I was twelve. My higher brain functions weren’t fully developed. I was so in love with you.The cold had woven its way into the fabric of my jeans and settled like a coating of ice in the folds of my jacket. Now I warmed again, puzzling through Hunter’s words. I didn’t know whether to take him seriously. Your love for me was a symptom that your brain hadn’t developed, or-Shut up. He turned to face me. I am drunk and I am trying to confess, so just let me do it, okay? I had fallen in love with you over the summer. Then this horrible thing happened to you and you stopped talking t me. I thought you blamed me, or my dad. Which he deserved.No, I protested. It was an acc-I took it as a rejection. He put his hand on my knee and looked me straight in the eyes. It’s taken me all this time to figure that out. But I regretted it every day. And I’m truly sorry. He sat back against the bench and faced the stars. The place where his hand had rested on my knee felt colder than ever.I’m sorry, too, I said, so we’re even. I didn’t visit you in the hospital when you got crushed by a horse. For much the same reasons regarding love and rejection and being young. ― Jennifer Echols, Love Story
