Tuesday Night.Chaos! I was rushing around my room, backwards and forwards, thinking about what I should do with my hair.

"Calm down! Don't get yourself in a state! It's just your hair!" Kate tried to reassure me

"Yes, well that's just it! Firstly it'll be my hair, then it'll be my clothes and then my personal hygiene will lack and the next thing you know I'll become a tinky old hobo on the street!" I flounced off into the bathroom where I stood poking my skin, and rubbing cream onto the pores

"No you're not!" Kate giggled helplessly at my stupid illusions "What was all that anyway?! Hahaha! Listen to me!" She suddenly bacme serious and grabbed me by my shoulders "You will look beautiful tomorrow. He will like you! And you'll live happily ever after!" She smiled.

"Easy for you to say" I said grumpily "But these spots ain't gonna clear up by themselves, and my hair... dear God... How am I gonna style it?!" I muttered

Kate sighed and started to stalk off "Ugh! I give up!" She threw her hand up into the sky and drooped her shoulders as she made her way to my room.

I looked at myself in the mirror and suddenly started doubting myself. What if I am too ugly? What if he doesn't like my personality? By the way, he'll see me in my school uniform! Won't this get any worse?! He'll probably think I'm some kind of green leprechaun as he's like a whole half-head taller than me... That brings me back to the age difference... Is he too old for me?

I flounced off to my bedroom after brushing my teeth, all flustered and angry and just stressed. Are dates meant to make you feel this way? I lay down onto the bed and thought about all of our conversations, about all of our special moments together and about the times we played football and suddenly I felt a whole lot calmer and more excited for tomorrow's events!

I fell asleep imagining what our date would be like, we'd decided to meet by the little stream by my aunts house. I had to drag Kate along because if she were to go home my mother would've suspected something.

Kate and I had made a deal that she'd wait for us by the stream whilst we go for a walk in the alley... How romantic is that?! Although I do feel bad for lying to my mom, telling her that rehearsals would finnish at 4:45pm so I could have an hour with the guy I am totally in a crush with! But there was no other way around it... Not with my mom...

Everything was planned, spick and span. And I was so excited! My first date at the age of 14... that's not so bad now is it? Although that one Taylor Swift song kept popping into my mind during my beautiful fairytale-like dreams, Maybe this meant something... Maybe...

'Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you,

You're gonna believe them!

And when you're fifteen,

Don't forget to look before you fall...

I found time can heal most anything

and you just might find who you're supposed to be...

I didn't know who I was supposed to be...

at Fifteen'
