Chapter 1

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"NO!! I'm not going" I insisted. My best friend Elena was still holding the dress she had picked out for me to go to the masquerade in.

"Yes. Alice you are going even if I have to drag you there by your feet." Elena told me in a tone that said there was no arguing with her.

"But, you don't understand, Elena, I'm not ready. You should know that." I whimpered trying to plead my case for why i shouldn't go. But she wasn't having any of it! She dropped my dress on my bed and i knew I was about to get one of Elena's famous lectures.

"I DO know that Alice But I also know that you have been in this house for a month in a half. Hell you even missed the last day of school." She told me her voice rising with every word. She scared me when she got like this. "So you are going to get out of this fucking house tonight because you owe it to yourself to have fun and be the 17 year old you are! And you need to prove to the whole world and that prick that you are fine and that you are moving on, which you will never do if you stay in this insufferable house." She was yelling by this point. But she was kinda right.... I should go... Show them I was strong... That I have moved on......

"Okay." I said in a unsure voice. "Okay!" This time it was stronger. Im going to do this.

"YAYY!!!" Elena exclaimed and started rambling about how she wanted to do my hair and after that I tuned her out and sat down. I was in for a long 4 hours....
