"Watch out!" A deep voice yelled just as I was pulled out of the way of a flying human death machine.

"You could have killed me!" I yelled watching the football, otherwise known as the object aimed at my destruction, drop onto the road.

"Are you okay?" The same voice wondered and I looked up, allowing my jaw to drop at the specimen before me.

I stared into a pair of deep silvery green eyes with flecks of blue in them and blinked twice. I had never even known there were variations to green; I had always assumed that there was either the nice green and the swampy green, but these eyes were different. They were so bright and clear that it almost hurt to stare into them for too long.

And the face...oh my gosh, the face was perfect. The eyes were set on an angular face with a jaw line crafted by the heavens. A pair of gorgeous pink lips with straight white teeth behind them smiled down at me as a halo of brown hair blew in the wind.

"Are you listening?"

"Yeah"

Lie.

"I've seen you before" he was still standing all too close to me, "You just moved in across from me"

At my confused look, he smiled, "I'm Evan. Evan Reed...I live Right across from you?"

"Oh!" I nodded and he gave me a lopsided grin.

"And who are you?" He asked, eyes scanning me.

"I'm Andrea Connor, these are my siblings Stephen and London and our close friend Nate" I answered mechanically.

I was a fraud.

Why do I say this, You may ask. 

Well,  a) My name wasn't Andrea Connor, b) I hardly even liked two of the three people next to me, and c) I was an only child.

You're probably wondering why I had told this stranger an entire sentence worthy of me being locked up in jail for identity theft but there was no way the truth would suffice...Not for my purposes anyways.

You see, I was one of the youngest undercover cops in history. What began as an internship for twenty young hopefuls became an induction into the task force for ten.

"There have been too many grievances  and casualties  using middle aged undercover cops" Detective Fields, head of our force, had told the crowd, "We need actual teenagers to act as...well, actual teenagers"

They trained us and taught us what it meant to uphold the law. So far our junior task force had put six perps away and I was personally proud of the accomplishment; not that I had had anything to do with them. Despite trying to prove my worth, Fields hadn't put me on an assignment, sighting my 'brash personality' as the reason.

But I remember the day it all changed.

It was early September when Fields called everyone in. There were five of the juniors, six detectives, and seven street cops sitting around the glass table.

Officer Jacob Fields stood at the head of it, his bald head shining under the fluorescent light.

"This is Miranda Collins" He said slapping a picture of a pretty blonde onto the table.
