Forgotten

It was just a normal day for me, even though I thought something should be different. I was staring out the window of my classroom watching as the rain fell.  Normally I would be trying to pay attention to the short tempered Mr. Evans but I just didn't feel like puttting in the effort today. Today was the day I was leaving my family and moving in with my future husband.. Even though, I , Serena, was only sixteen.

It all started when my father got fired from his job. I was only two at the time. My mom had gotten a migraine and wasn't able to watch me so my father had to  bring me to work with him.  I slipped away from my father and ended up in my father's boss's office. That's when I first meet Damon. He was four and I was two. While I was red haired and fair skinned with shcoking green eyes, Damon was tan with dark hair and eyes.

We ended up meeting again when I was six. My mother had took me to my father's workplace to drop me off. Following my father's voice I raced into that same office. This time Damon and his Dad where there. Not long after that I was sent to go get a snack. I found out later that Damon's dad was fixing to fire my dad. He changed his mind and now I knew why. He wanted me to marry his son.

The bell rang causing me to jump slighlty.Trying to put those thoughts to the back of my mind, I hurry to my locker. Even though I'm not in a hurry to get home, I don't want to miss my bus. When the bus finally screeched to a halt in front of my house a fancy black car was in my driveway. I could feel the nervous butterflies in my stomach.

I stood outside my door for a couple of minutes trying to gather enough courage not to break down in front of my parents. Tears weren't going to solve this problem. Not that I hadn't tried to beg and plead to get out of this marriage. A deal was a deal. Sighing I opened the door and stepped inside to confront my fate.
