Chapter One

Above is Kristern Stewert who plays Aubrey. The character Aubrey has blonde hair, therefore is played by Kirsten when she had blonde hair and blonde hair only. Further on, this may or may not change.

Please listen to the song above. It is called Oceans by Hillsong United and it is such an amazing song and the tune really fits with his Aubrey is feeling throughout this story. (The song has nothing to do with this chapter. I've nsjt decided that this is the song for my book)

Please enjoy the first chapter of .COM

Name: Aubrey McGreggor
About yourself: Hi, I'm Aubrey McGreggor and I'm ready to be your date!!

No. That's horrible. I hold down the backspace button and start again.

About yourself: My name is Aubrey, I am 22 years old and looking for someone to mingle with because I'm a single pringle.

Wow. I'm really bad at this. This needs to be perfect. The room is silent except for the clicking sound of the backspace button being pushed up and down until my description is clear. Okay. Last time. This one is gonna be good.

About yourself: Hi I'm Aubrey, I'm 22 years old, attending NYCU. I love dogs, Italian restaurants and I support the New York Giants. I am looking for someone to possibly start a family with, and I am into tall guys as I am 5"8. Call me or email me if you are interested, all my information is in my profile. Looking forward to meeting some of you.

There we go. I finally click submit after my multiple attempts of getting this description perfect.

I never thought it would end up like this. When I was a little girl I dreamt of finding true love when I was about 16 and staying with this one guy forever and ever. We would get married, have 10 kids and live happily ever after. Well that hasn't really worked out for me. All throughout high school, I had many boyfriends, but none were really special I guess. They all lasted for a month or two and then it was over.

When I finally finished high school, I left America to travel Europe for a year before I went to university. I thought that maybe I would find a guy over there, but no such luck.

When I came back and started at NYCU, I finally met the guy of my dreams. Too bad that didn't work out. Turns out the bloke was engaged, and was cheating on his fiancé with me.

So that brings me to where I am today, signing up for a dating website, in a desperate search for my soulmate.

"Aubrey!!! Wake up!!!! Aubreeeeeey," my roommate screams in my ear, waking me up. I sit up and rub my eyes, my vision going blurry, then normal, then black, then blurry, before back to normal again.

"What do you want Peyton?" I ask exasperated, and very annoyed that she woke me up from my sleep on a Saturday.

"I brought you coffee," she coos, making me shoot up out of the bed and run over to where she is leaning against the door frame, holding a Starbucks coffee in her hand. I snatch it away from her, then start to scull the whole thing.

"It's Saturday, so we are going to the beach. Might find you the lucky guy huh?" Peyton tells me, smirking and finishing with a wink.

Yes. She too, is in a desperate search to find me a guy. Peyton is single, but she is happy being single. Very happy. She is absolutely stunning though, so I don't understand why she doesn't want a man in her life because she has a long list to choose from if she wanted to. Me and Peyton have been rooming together since we both started here at the university. Although she is a year younger than me, we hit it off straight away, and have been each other's best friend since. We hold each other's hair back when we puke, we join the other in eating a tub of ice cream when we are sad and we rarely ever leave each other's side. Neither of us really had a best friend in high school, just a big group of acquaintances. So now, I guess we are living the high school life we never really had. Call us childish, I don't care.

"Aubrey? Aubrey!!" Peyton snaps her fingers in front of my face, taking me away from my thoughts. "We are leaving in 45 minutes so hurry up and get ready!"

"I'm going, I'm going!" I sigh, placing my coffee down on my desk and walking over to our large, shared wardrobe, and try to choose from my large selection of swim suits. Once a month, Peyton and I go to Coney Island for a day or two, to have some fun and get away from exams and study. Almost every time we go, we buy a new swimsuit when we go there, so you can just imagine how many we each have. Finally I decide on a pink triangle bikini with black stitching and some black bottoms. I grab a black cap and slide on pink flip flops before throwing on a cute summer dress.

Peyton is throwing her hair into a messy bun in our bathroom when I am finished getting ready.

"Peyton? You ready? Let's go to the beach!"

Authors Note
