~Prologue

"Oh my god! Can you believe how fast time has flown? I mean yesterday it was me and you in math class throwing calculators at Liam! Now were all grown up! Great now I'm gonna cry!" Bethany reached over to snatch a tissue from the small bathroom counter all the while scorching my scalp with the curling iron. "Ow! this is the fifth time you've burned me with that damned iron!" I whined while pushing the hot iron still in her hand away from my head. It was finally the day, I had waited 8 years for this day to come, the day I'd finally marry the love of my life. I'd been through so much and finally it was all paying off in one single day. Bethany pulled the curling iron from my hair, leaving one single curl falling down my back and turned the spiny chair around to face her, she stared at me with tears in her eyes. "I'm just so happy for you! I mean you deserve this but I honestly cant help but be jealous, you guys are just so...Perfect! I just wish I could be as lucky!" Tears slowly dripped from her eyes and it took all my effort to not cry too. "Oh stop it! Your gonna make me cry too!"  "I'm sorry!" She through her arms round me and then immediately went back to doing my hair. "I'm sorry...again! Okay lets get back to this mess of hair!" I giggled knowing it would take forever. My hair had been a thick curly mess that had been straightened and now curled again so the curls would look neater. As she started my mind started wondering to the years when me and my fiance had first met. A smile crossed my face and stayed there.

*Chapter 1

   "Selena!" I ran out of the chorus room to Selena. Selena was a freshman in college who had been in marching band with me when she still attended my high school. She stood with rachal and a boy I didnt know. "Hi Madison!" She let me jump into her arms for a long hug and then dropped me to look me up and down " You've lost weight I assume?" I shook my head no and smiled at rachal who was talking about leaving to go put stage make up on. Selena was here helping with the play, this year we were show casing the wizard of oz. "Your Madison?" The boy I still didnt know asked me. "yea?" I looked at him with a look I hoped read curious instead of rude. "You know my brother Nick. He says your weird."  I raised an eyebrow and looked at Selena who remained silent. "Who is this kid?" I asked in a somewhat hushed voice. "I can hear you! God my brother was right, your fucking dumb." I was so taken aback that I couldnt form a come back. I stood there hurt by a guy I had assumed just from one look had been nice. I was wrong. "What? Why are you staring at me?" Selena put her arm round me "Psh shes just like me Jonathen, were not dumb just ditsey. Well anyway I gotta go, I'm helping with ticket booth! Good luck Jon and you to Madison!" I was still shocked but my witty stuborn side was starting to come back to me, I knew I wasnt able to talk still. So I stood in silence waiting for Jonathen to get bored or see I was hurt and apoligize. He did neither. Instead he started talking to other people still in the hallway. I then realized my eyes were wet and decided that it was my time to escape and quickly ran into the chorus room to put my make up and costumes on. For the rest of the play I couldnt stop thinking bout the events that had played out in the hallway earlier, I couldnt get over how cruel he had been. Finally when the play was over I grabbed all my candy grams (candy given to people in the play for there hard work. Which also came with a paper that they could write there name on and a small note congradulating them) and packed my things to go home. It was the second to last play there had been 4 in total. So since tomorrow was last play they had there annual after play party at the johnsons house. the johnsons were one of the most popluar musically talented familys in the school. There parents were known for helping out with everything music in our school. I pulled a snickers from the back of a candy gram and flipped over the sheet of paper to read who had given me it. the part of the sheet that read from said next to it: anomynous. And under it were you wrote the message to the person it only said: Great job in the play. It took me a minute to realize that I honestly had no clue who this was from, I thought through everyone, but I knew everyone and there hand writing and this was none of theres...I decided that from this point on I was going to stop trying to figure out why jonathen hated me and instead fgure out who my secret admire was.
