00:00Hi, my name is Rose, and I'm from Florida.
00:02Please like and subscribe.
00:03Ever since I can remember, I've always led a pretty normal life,
00:06filled with the three F's.
00:08Food, friends, and football.
00:09And when I turned 14, I knew I wanted to try out for my high school team.
00:13Girls playing football?
00:14Ha, please.
00:16I threw the ball at them to show them my skills.
00:18But right then, this girl walked in its path.
00:20How?
00:21You missed.
00:22You'd do better as a cheerleader.
00:24I ignored them and rushed over to her.
00:26I am so sorry.
00:27Are you okay?
00:28No worries.
00:28I'm okay.
00:29But you know, I have the combinations for their lockers.
00:32Huh?
00:32I saw how those jerks were acting,
00:34and I was actually coming over to give them a piece of my mind.
00:37Yeah, those boys make me so mad.
00:39But I say, don't get mad, get ants.
00:42April and I filled their helmets and couldn't help but laugh
00:45as we watched them squirm and swat while trying to explain to the coach.
00:49I'm April, by the way.
00:50Nice to meet you.
00:51I'm Rose.
00:52We've been partners in crime ever since.
00:54Making prank calls to our classmates,
00:56baking cupcakes with gummy worms for the bake sale,
00:58to annoy the snooty girls,
00:59the usual high school stuff.
01:00But then things took a turn when I hit sophomore year.
01:03One day, I was running late for class, but I had to pee.
01:06When I came out of the stall,
01:07I saw this beautiful dark-haired boy with the most intense green eyes.
01:11This is the ladies' room?
01:13Excusey.
01:14Sushi?
01:14In the bathroom?
01:15Then, he pointed to the wall, and I realized I was in the wrong place.
01:19Oops!
01:20I was in such a rush.
01:21Hey, you must be one of the exchange students.
01:23Where are you from?
01:24Italia.
01:25Oh!
01:25Do you speak any English?
01:29Well, I know some Italian, too.
01:30Una mattina mi sono alzado.
01:33Oh, bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao!
01:36Who told you that if you slow down and speak louder,
01:39that someone will understand your language better?
01:41Oh, so you're a comedian.
01:43Well, do you understand sign language?
01:45Cause I've got a gesture for you.
01:47Relax, everyone.
01:48I'm keeping it PG.
01:49Talk to the hand.
01:50Oh, don't be like that.
01:51I just thought you were cute, and I was messing with you.
01:53Don't go.
01:54I stormed out, but he grabbed my hand to stop me,
01:57knocking my phone on the floor,
01:58and when we both went to pick it up,
01:59I accidentally head-butted him on the way back up.
02:02Ow!
02:02I think you broke my nose.
02:04Just then the bell rang,
02:05and I couldn't be late again to Miss Dander's class.
02:07Sorry, I don't have a tissue, but this tampon may help.
02:10You'll be fine.
02:11I made it to class 15 seconds after the bell rang,
02:14and I couldn't wait to tell April,
02:16but just as I was about to give her the deets,
02:17he walked in.
02:18Class, I'd like to welcome one of our new exchange students.
02:22Holy moly!
02:23She asked if anyone would volunteer to take him to the nurse,
02:26and April's hand shot up in the air like a rocket,
02:28but Miss Dander pointed at me.
02:30Since you were late to your seat,
02:31perhaps you need a lesson in thinking of others.
02:34Not just yourself.
02:35Come on, holy moly.
02:37Let's get you all better.
02:38As I walked him to the nurse's office,
02:40he kept trying to talk to me.
02:41I'm Billy, so I...
02:43But I knew, like this, I might fall for his charms,
02:46so I panicked and pinched his arm to get him to stop talking.
02:49Ow!
02:50Oh, look!
02:50Here we are!
02:51Bye!
02:51And after school, all the girls, even April,
02:54started gushing about how gorgeous Billy was.
02:57I mean, even with his nose all bandaged up, he's so dreamy.
03:00The next day, I was having lunch with April,
03:03when we saw Billy talking up some of the cheer squad.
03:05I bet he loves the attention.
03:07Ugh, he's such a flirt.
03:08Then we heard a familiar voice behind us.
03:11Yes, he is.
03:12Am I having the side effects of today's lunch food,
03:15or is he in two places at once?
03:17Oh, that's my twin brother.
03:18Yo, Blaine!
03:19April and I were both shocked.
03:21I was glad Billy wasn't a flirt,
03:23but then my brain was working overtime on a plan
03:25as Blaine walked towards April.
03:27Billy for me, Blaine for April.
03:29Woo-hoo!
03:30We'd be one big family!
03:31I gave April an encouraging look,
03:33signaling her to talk to Blaine,
03:35but she didn't utter a word.
03:36Blaine, this is April and Rose.
03:38Hey, Rose.
03:39Wow, not only do they look alike,
03:41they sound the same, too.
03:43So you're the one I can thank
03:44for making me the better-looking twin.
03:46It looked like the entire cheer squad agrees with you.
03:49So, Blaine, you know if you want to pass your classes,
03:52you need a study buddy.
03:53I mean, April here is a whiz.
03:55Right, April?
03:56Yeah, let's have a study group.
03:58We'll meet you guys at the library after school tomorrow.
04:00As we walked away, I turned to April.
04:02Oh my god, did you see how Blaine was staring at you?
04:05I don't know, Rose.
04:06I just met him.
04:07So the next day, I gave April an awesome makeover,
04:09and I added 12 more layers of lip gloss.
04:12When trying for the 13th layer,
04:13this gloss will last for a whole week now.
04:15Let's go.
04:16Our study date was amazing.
04:18I found out that Billy was really sweet.
04:20I talked to him all the time,
04:21and April kinda looked happy with Blaine, too.
04:24Then one day, I hopped to the store
04:25to grab snacks for our library session,
04:27and as I was reaching for the top shelf,
04:29I felt someone slap me on the butt.
04:31No way was I gonna let some random weirdo do that.
04:34So I whipped around and went full demon karate girl on the guy.
04:37But as I kicked him, I realized it was Blaine.
04:40Ow.
04:41What the heck, dude?
04:42He pointed to a cockroach on the floor
04:44that apparently had been crawling on my butt.
04:46You could have just told me.
04:48Okay, but you should be thankful.
04:50Thankful?
04:50You should apologize to me.
04:52Ha!
04:52Why don't you just leave?
04:53You can't tell me to leave.
04:55This isn't your family's store, you know.
04:57My dad could buy this store for me
04:58with the snap of his fingers.
05:00Oh, really?
05:00My family is richer than yours.
05:02We use hundred dollar bills as napkins,
05:04and I have even more money in my piggy bank
05:07than you have in your entire bank.
05:08He waved his card at me before he put it in his back pocket.
05:11I sneakily swapped it with my library card
05:13when I purposely knocked into him.
05:15Then I walked out of the store.
05:17Huh.
05:17Not for long.
05:18I was the first one to arrive at the library,
05:20and just as I reached for the book,
05:22I felt a hand sweep across mine.
05:24It was Billy, but I turned around too quickly,
05:26and the book fell on his head.
05:28Ow.
05:28You had to pick the biggest book in the library?
05:31Well, what's up with the sneak attack?
05:33I thought I could admire your pretty face in secret.
05:35Really now, I hope my pretty face doesn't blind you.
05:39He laughed, and we talked about football.
05:42Suddenly, his eyes twinkled, and he leaned closer to me.
05:45My heart raced as I realized he was gonna kiss me,
05:48and just then, he sneezed right on my face.
05:51Ew.
05:52Yuck.
05:52He quickly tore some pages out of the book
05:54and handed it to me.
05:55I am so sorry.
05:56Here, wipe your face on that.
05:57And what's worse?
05:58The librarian saw us and threw us out.
06:01Just then, he pulled the tape off of his nose.
06:04Blaine, you jerk.
06:05Sorry, Billy's not gonna make it today.
06:07He's with Mom, so I decided to pay you back
06:09for the card switcheroo you pulled on me.
06:11You can imagine how embarrassing it was
06:13to try to pay for food with my library card.
06:16Blaine held up my card, but as I went to grab it,
06:19he moved and held it above his head
06:21so I couldn't reach it.
06:22What's the matter?
06:23You can't take it out of my hand.
06:25You forget.
06:26I'm not a basketball fan, more of a footballer.
06:29I tackled him to the ground.
06:30Jeez, girl, you've got moves.
06:32Don't try to butter me up now that I've taken you down.
06:35I'm serious.
06:36You know, my dad's got connections with sports agents
06:38if you want me to set you up with a meeting.
06:41But it has to wait,
06:42because I'm enjoying this closeness with you.
06:44Oh my God, is he flirting with me?
06:47Um...
06:47We were trying to get up from the floor,
06:49but my foot twitched and I fell,
06:51causing Blaine to go over me.
06:52Then he touched my face.
06:54Wait, stop.
06:55I like Billy.
06:56Or do I?
06:57Or I like Blaine?
06:58I'm so confused.
06:59Guys, help me out here.
07:00What should I do?
07:01And we kissed.
07:02You guys did say kiss him, right?
07:04It was amazing,
07:06but I pulled away when I remembered
07:07April was supposed to be with Blaine.
07:09Too late, though,
07:10because she showed up just in time to see us kiss.
07:13What's going on?
07:14I thought you...
07:15She looked so betrayed.
07:16I couldn't think of anything better,
07:18so I faked a stomach ache.
07:19Uh, it's bad tacos.
07:21I dashed off,
07:22but April had enough,
07:23and she ran after me.
07:24Don't you dare run away.
07:26Just tell me.
07:27Why did you kiss him?
07:28It wasn't a kiss.
07:29Yes, I was...
07:30We were...
07:30He was giving me CPR.
07:32What?
07:32Yeah.
07:33Remember when I puked in Miss Dander's exam?
07:35I had just found out that I...
07:37I had cancer,
07:38and today I fainted,
07:39so he was helping me.
07:41I kept it to myself,
07:42not wanting anyone to pity me.
07:43But April,
07:44how could you think of me like that?
07:46I felt bad for lying,
07:47but I truly didn't want to ruin our friendship.
07:49I would have to cover up for now,
07:51but soon I would tell her the truth,
07:52and we could laugh about it.
07:54Oh my God, Rosie.
07:56I'm so sorry.
07:57I was so wrong.
07:58Please forgive me.
07:59Seriously?
08:00You're using my shirt as a snot wiper?
08:02The next day at school,
08:03Blaine brushed his hand against mine
08:05as he walked by.
08:06My heart skipped a beat.
08:08I was confused about
08:09why I didn't feel the same around Billy.
08:11I shrugged it off and looked for April.
08:13What do you need?
08:14You want to hold my hand?
08:15A bottle of water?
08:16See?
08:16This is why I didn't tell you.
08:18I don't want you to treat me any differently,
08:19and don't tell anyone either.
08:21Okay, you got it, bestie.
08:22I have an idea.
08:23Why don't we go to my family's cabin
08:24by the lake this weekend?
08:26We can have a fun slumber party
08:27like we used to.
08:28Absolutely!
08:29That weekend,
08:30April picked me up,
08:31but when we got to the cabin,
08:33I was shocked to see
08:34Billy and Blaine were already there.
08:36Surprise!
08:37I thought now you could have Billy
08:38and I'll just hang out with Blaine.
08:40I was so on edge around Billy and Blaine.
08:42We unpacked our stuff,
08:43and we were about to make dinner
08:44when Billy grabbed the pan.
08:46I'll be making a special dinner
08:47for someone special tonight.
08:49Hmm, I don't think anyone wants food poisoning,
08:51so I'll be making dinner tonight
08:53for my special lady.
08:54Oh, really?
08:55Your special lady?
08:57You have no idea what me and Rose have,
08:59so you better shut your pie hole
09:00or I'll do it for you.
09:02April was stunned,
09:03and Billy took a tampon out of his pocket
09:05and shoved it in Blaine's ear.
09:07A tampon?
09:08I knew you punched like a girl,
09:09but this is a whole other level.
09:11Actually, it was a gift from Rose,
09:13so I'd like it back.
09:14I was supposed to spend the weekend with my friend,
09:17forget about boys,
09:18and get everything back to normal,
09:19but instead, everything was falling apart.
09:22So, I just snuck out for some time to think.
09:25I must have walked for a while,
09:26because I wound up on a road
09:28that clearly hadn't been used in months.
09:30Then suddenly, I heard a woman yelling for help.
09:32As I approached, I saw a woman on the ground.
09:34I rushed over to help.
09:36Are you okay?
09:37I knelt down to see that her foot had been badly injured
09:39and was stuck in a gopher hole.
09:41Hold still.
09:42I think I can use a branch to pry you loose.
09:44I freed her from the hole
09:45and took her to the hospital for treatment,
09:46but she needed blood,
09:47and luckily, I was a match.
09:49When she woke up, she called me over.
09:51You are an angel.
09:53I would have surely been there for a month
09:54if you hadn't saved me.
09:55If I had a daughter, she'd be just like you.
09:58As she hugged me,
09:59I fought back the tears,
10:00thinking of how much I missed having my mom around.
10:03No matter what you do or how rich you are,
10:05there's no replacement for a mother's love.
10:08My sons forgot their undies,
10:09so I tried Google Maps to reach them,
10:12but I got lost.
10:13I just called them,
10:14and they should be here soon.
10:15You know, I am so proud that nothing can come between them,
10:19and they are always together
10:20and take such good care of me.
10:22Just then, April, Billy, and Blaine showed up.
10:24Mom!
10:25Wait, these are your sons?
10:27Blaine rushed for medicines,
10:28and Billy came to hug me.
10:30I was so worried about you.
10:31I'm glad you're okay.
10:32But as I hugged him,
10:33I realized I was looking over his shoulder
10:35with my eyes glued to Blaine.
10:37It was then I knew that Blaine was the one,
10:40and also that I would have to give him up.
10:42I whispered in Billy's ear,
10:44I care so much about you,
10:46both of you,
10:47but I need to let you both go.
10:49Why?
10:49I don't understand.
10:50I can't be the reason
10:51that anything comes between you two.
10:53Someone just reminded me how important family is.
10:57Please tell Blaine for me.
10:58My lie got busted when the doctor told them
11:00that I gave the blood,
11:01and April heard it,
11:02and looked so disappointed.
11:04I couldn't face April,
11:05so I ran away,
11:06and decided to escape to Europe
11:08and complete my high school years there.
11:10Something my dad had always wanted me to do,
11:12but before leaving,
11:13I sent a long email to April,
11:15apologizing for not being the friend she deserved,
11:18and telling her my true feelings for Blaine.
11:20Then, with tears in my eyes,
11:22I deleted all the accounts,
11:24knowing that I'd never be able to tell Blaine how I felt.
11:27It hurts bad,
11:28but I thought it was just better for all of us.
11:30Years later,
11:31I had graduated from medical college
11:32and came back home to set up my pediatric practice.
11:35I had only been open for a few weeks,
11:37when Billy and April walked in
11:39with their twin baby girls.
11:41We heard you were back in town,
11:42and we needed a good pediatrician.
11:44And you thought you thought of me?
11:46She gave me a shove so hard
11:48that we both started bawling,
11:50and ended up hugging.
11:51Through her tears,
11:52she told me how much she'd been missing me.
11:54Have you both forgiven me?
11:56Of course, Rose.
11:57I mean, after all,
11:58you're the reason we wound up together.
12:00We realized how much we had in common,
12:01and love blossomed from there.
12:03We sent you a wedding invitation,
12:05but never heard back.
12:06I had all my mail forwarded to my dad's house.
12:08I still haven't gone through any of it,
12:10but I'm sorry I missed it.
12:11I'm sure it was beautiful.
12:13Well, you have an open invitation to come by anytime
12:16to look at the wedding album.
12:17She'll take any excuse to break that out and show people.
12:20We've gone through three mailmen.
12:22Oh, sweetie.
12:23That night,
12:23I swung by my dad's old house
12:25to go through all the mail and find the invitation.
12:27But what I found instead shocked me to my core.
12:30Hundreds of letters from Blaine.
12:32Once I started reading them,
12:33I was so happy.
12:35He had been waiting for me
12:36and writing to me all these years,
12:38telling me how much he loved me.
12:40I googled the return address on the letters
12:42and rushed over to his house
12:43and banged on the door excitedly.
12:45Blaine, I know it's late,
12:46but you're not gonna believe I just got all your letters.
12:49The door opened and my heart pounded.
12:51I went to hug him,
12:52but stopped suddenly
12:53when I saw a beautiful girl had answered the door.
12:56Can I help you?
12:57Oh, I'm sorry.
12:58I just, I'm Rose.
12:59I was just an old friend of Blaine's
13:01and I just stopped by to say,
13:03uh, hi.
13:03He's not home right now,
13:05but do you want me to tell him that you stopped by?
13:07I was crushed.
13:08My heart sank to the bottom of my chest
13:10and I could barely get the words out.
13:12No, thank you.
13:13I stopped my car at the football field at my high school.
13:16I was so heartbroken that I just sat and cried
13:18until I heard a knock on the window.
13:20It was Blaine.
13:21What's the matter?
13:22Did you try to buy food with a library card?
13:24Because I can tell you from personal experience,
13:26that doesn't work.
13:27I, I got your letters, but I'm too late.
13:31Well, I'm no expert,
13:32but I think ghosting someone for a few years
13:34does qualify as very late.
13:36Blaine took my hand and helped me out of the car.
13:38How did you find me here?
13:40When my mom's assistant said you were at the door,
13:42I figured I'd find you here.
13:44I felt a wave of relief wash over me knowing about her.
13:47I'm so sorry, Blaine,
13:48and I can't find the words to say how much I, I,
13:51I love you too, Rose.
13:53We were leaning in for a kiss
13:54when a football suddenly came flying our way.
13:57Blaine grabbed it, tossing it to me.
13:59Care for a little match, Rose?
