Chapter 1. Mysterious feelings 

Today was the most special occasion. Well, at least I had chosen the perfect costume to wear. I had started to sigh tiredly, as I dressed into the red plaid dress tucking it delicately over my jeans. Laura had ordered us into the correct dress code that had been all-red, in order to fit in with the theme of the Anderson's party, not even to mention that it was currently the summer holidays.

But had been extremely friendly whenever we would have to study together for English, but other than that there was nothing otherwise. I had been spending my spare time doing my job at the Mohawk General store and having to constantly reject Aidan's affections towards me. Which was pretty much half of the day.
