Chapter 1
"Do you have to go?" I ask, pouting.
"You know that I desperately want to be joined at the hip with BOTH my parents for two weeks!" Elliot, my best friend, says sarcastically. I give him a little smile then turn away because suddenly I realise that the only one that I feel comfortable with is him and how lonely I will be when he goes away to ski in France.
"Hey, it will be okay," he says, urging me to be strong, then he looks to his girlfriend, Kara, with a look that could make cupid cry tears of joy. "Do you mind?" He asks, politely. I nod my head. He leaves to talk to Kara. I watch them for a while and think how perfect they are for each other. When they start kissing widely I swing my whole body around and throw up a little in my mouth. 'Not so perfect to watch,' I think.
Elliot's plane is now ready to board and we rush our good-byes. As I wave to Elliot and Mr and Mrs Peterson, I start thinking about all the things that he and I could do when he comes back and how much fun we could have.
