Teen romance + Murder Mystery + Royals + Horses = one heck of a roller coaster!
Lauren's life is normal. The daily routine of wake up, get dressed, go to school, return home, do homework, repeat.
That all changes when a man comes to the house saying...
The winter gala was rolling around, and it seemed everyone was getting dates. Nick and Lily were going together as 'friends', Zola had a boy from her senior class, Amoy had a date, Will, Raphael apparently was going with Renee, Sahila was not at school still, Claire wanted to go alone, then there was me and Seth. I just didn't like anyone and Seth hated just about everyone...
Then came dress shopping. Amoy, Renee, Claire, Zola, Vivi, and I were going dress shopping. Fun. And of course Seth would supervise...

Finny after lots of ""yes!!!" And "no!!!" We all got our dresses!

We were getting coffee when I see Meilin. She's walking with Camille, Amira, Visha, and Alora. They were smiling and laughing. It wasn't that I was angry, but I felt a pang of betrayal and jealousy. She had been my first friend here...
They were walking our way so I quickly look away.
"Oh, hello" Alora says to us. Her blond hair was held back with a ribbon as usual.
"Hey," Amoy says.
There was a slight silence until Meilin asks, "dress shopping?"
"Yup" I say.
"Find anything good?" Visha asks.
"Yes" Renee says.
There was a silence again.
"We better be going..." Camille says.

"What are we doing tonight?" I ask Seth as we walk to my dorm building.
"Homework, eat, bed" he says. Same old Seth.

It was the day before the dance and I got the strangest question of my life.
It was my usual English and Like walked up to me. Class had just ended and it was lunch time. At the time I had been finishing up on notes.
"Hey" Luke says.
I look up closing my book, "hey."
"The dance is tomorrow..." he says. I nod. It was kinda had to forget with all the posters the school had.
"Do you have a date?" He asks.
"Why do you want to know?" I ask. What was it to him?
"Do you want one?" He asks.
"Are you asking me?" I ask smirking. His face was hilarious.
"It depends. If you say yes." He says.
I stop for a second to think, finally saying, "sure."
