Emily And Her Red Dress

Red dress

Chapter 1

I'm Emily, 16 year old who is clueless about life. I've always been a reject by the rest of my family, my parents died in a car crash in 2003, I was 5. They were on their way to my 5th birthday party, when a drunk driver hit them.

I've lived with my aunt for 6 years in New Jersey until she died of cancer. The rest of my family is religious, so they believed the devil was in my presence, to they didn't want me to stay with them. That made me feel unwanted. Like there was something wrong with me, but I didn't know what for.

By the time my aunt died I was at the end of fifth grade. My cousins in New York did not believe all the religious stuff the rest of my family did, so they let me stay with them.

I had to be homeschooled for a month to finish 5th grade. Later I went into 6th grade and met a girl named Kendall. We sat together at lunch, plus we had all the same classes! My cousins eventually went to collage, so I was left alone. Kendall's family adopted me. It was like we were sisters!

Since then we battled through bullies, and mean girls. We are now sophomores in High School. The school Sadie's dance is coming up,I might have an idea who to ask.

My bestfriend(more like sister) Kendall,has been begging me to tell her who I will ask.

On a Friday night we were outside at the park when I decided to spill the beans to Kendall. I told her,

"He's on the school lacrosse team, it's Deven."

She said,"Ewwww! He was in my Kindergarden class! He used to chase us girls! What do you like about him?"

I replied, "His light brown hair, dreamy blue eyes, his muscles, he's athletic, he's funny, he comes from a good family. He's the perfect Pack! And by the way, you acted like a little kid when I said it was him!"

She answered,"Will you really ask somebody who was mean to me?"

"Yes. That was a long time ago. You guys were kids! Why were you so concerned? Did you use to like him?"

"Well.....yea he was a cute little boy! Uhhhhhhh we aren't talking about me!"

"OK! Haha. Ill ask him tomorrow, when we are in language arts."
