Something We've Lost

Some people revel in the graduation of high school and the beginning of their life as an adult. There are those who count down the days until they leave their high school for the last time and cannot wait to embark on their college adventure. Aspen Beaufort was not one of these individuals.

Aspen had liked high school. Throughout her four years at Dulaney High School, Aspen felt like she had life figured out. She had an impressive 3.8 GPA, took AP courses and was a very good soccer player. She had a huge group of friends, and she had Jack Barakat.

But Aspen's perfect high school world wasn't going to last forever. It couldn't last forever, though this was something she did not want to accept.

Aspen and Jack wouldn't last forever either. When the day came that they said goodbye, Aspen hadn't shed a tear. She had been forceful in the termination of their relationship and had happily placed all of the blame on Jack. She didn't think she would miss Jack Barakat. Until he was gone, that is.

And she didn't realize just how much she had missed him until she saw him again.
