At first, everything was black, just darkness, but I wasn't afraid. Then the light came the scene came into view. I was back at the old skate park, at the half-pipe, with my friends from before. It was all from before I moved away and before I met my new friends became a new person. But here, I didn't remember any of that. I just knew now. Getting on my board, I started talking with my friends Brian and Tony. Just the normal stuff about music, school, friends. I heard a familiar voice to my right turned.

There was my old girlfriend, Brittany and her friend Ashley. She smiled at me as I walked over, pulling her into a hug. She started to say something to me, but I didn't hear what. All the sudden I got this feeling like there was someone else behind me, not the creepy I'm-watching-you-and-I-have-a-knife feeling. It was more like when you see someone before you turn a corner you just know that they stopped for a minute looked at you. Anyway, I turned around came face-to-face with the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen, even though she wasn't my type. 

But still, she was gorgeous. Her face looked it was taken off of an angel she was really pale, but not ill pale. And she had a really nice body, too. Way better than my girlfriend's, that's for sure. Brittany not only looked like she was bulimic, but she was flatter than a board. That wasso not the case for this girl. I'll go on to her most amazing features: her hair her eyes. Both were the most beautiful shade of brown. Suddenly, nothing around me mattered but this girl, who was now walking towards me at a slow, leisurely pace. I wished she'd hurry up. Finally she got there, me just standing like an idiot. An overpowering urge to kiss her came over me, so I followed it. A moment later I pulled away, knowing I should be embarrassed, but I wasn't. Suddenly, everything had come back to me. I knew her name, knew my new name, and knew everything about the past two years.

"Abi," I whispered, trying the name out, almost like seeing if it fit. I turned around saw a very strange thing. Brittany had become Michelle, her friend Ashley was now Nichole, Brian and Tony were Ron and Kenneth respectively. I was stunned. What was going? BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! I woke up in my bedroom by my very annoying alarm clock, which read 5:00 am. 5:00 am? Who in their right mind got up at 5:00 am? But I knew I wouldn't be able to get back to sleep. Angry, I crushed the beeping menace into oblivion. Satisfied, I walked out of my room to go get a shower, rubbing my eyes.

Before I continue, let me say this: it's very hard to see where you're going with your eyes closed! Having stated this, I shall continue. I was rubbing my eyes when I rammed into something. Landing hard on my…butt…I opened my eyes to find Abi sitting on the floor opposite of me, a book at her feet. I blushed fiercely, not just because I'd just a dream about her, but also due to the fact that she was in a very short, black, thin, silky-looking nightgown. Needless to say, she was also blushing. I still wonder if that was because I was only in my boxers. Anyway, I apologized about a hundred times extended a hand to help her up, but she refused it, grabbing the book at her feet. She tried to hide what was written on the cover, but I saw it anyway: Abi's diary. She hurried down the hall without so much as a backwards glance left me standing there, befuddled. It was then that I remembered that it was a week until Valentine's Day.
