Beep! Beep! Beep! My alarm made me jump as it woke me up. The sound of it couldn’t be more revolting. My mom had layed out my outfit for me last night, like she always does. It was a dress. As always. I put it on, but I couldn’t be more disgusted. Since I absoulutly hated dresses, I went to my closet and way in back - where my parents couldn’t see - I grabbed a pair of dark wash jeans, a flowy, maroon short sleeve shirt, and some black and white converse shoes. I shoved it all in my bag and sat down at my makeup table. I took my long blond hair out of the french braid it had been in. I combed it out quickly and put a tiny bit of makeup on.

Stop thinking about home Lexi. This is your home now. You gave up your old place for this. You love it here, remember. After we got settled in, and checked out what they had here for us, I asked Jack, “Should we go to the town hall to see about when we should do our wedding?” “Yes. Let’s do it.” Jack sounded so excited about this. I never knew he liked me this much. I thought that he had only ever liked me as friend. A smile started to creep up on face.
