So Close Yet So Far

Chapter 1

It's already fall, which means school has come back. I'm 17 years old and it's my senior year here at Eastwood High. "Oh my god! Allison!?" I heard a loud scream coming from behind me. I turn around to see it's my best friend Jessica. It may not seem like a big deal to you but she moved away when I was only 11 years old. It shocks me that she's here right now. At my high school.

"What are you doing here!?" I screamed, jumping up and down, being a little overjoyed.

"My dad got a new job here in town so we moved back!"

I can't believe it. I'm so head over heels in love with the fact that I have my best friend back. It's been rough ever since she's been away. You know. All the bullying, all the traumatic experiences with family and friends. I really missed her. Oh, did I forget to mention her and I would fangirl all the time over Justin Bieber? I know, it's silly. But can you blame us? 

I let out a small laugh. "Jessica, I'm so excited you're here! Are you still in love with Justin Bieber like I am?" I said, clamping my hands together with a big grin on my face. 

"Are you kidding me? Of course I am!" she responded giggling at my silly question.

"Well that's good, because over the summer, me and my dad were doing a little research and Justin is coming here in October!" 

I have always told my dad how much I loved Justin Bieber. It wasn't just his natural good looks, it was all the talent inside. It was his charm, his caringness for other people. His love for all his fans, his voice, it was everything. He is an amazing, talented guy, and he's my idol. I look up to him, through the good and the bad. 

Anyway, while me and my dad did a little investigation on when he was coming here to Cali, he mentioned to me that for my birthday, he wouldn't mind buying me tickets, and backstage passes. 

I was in awe. I could not believe my dad was going to do this for me. I couldn't believe I might actually get to meet my favorite person after 5 years of fangirling. 

"Your birthday is in October isn't it?" she asked.

"Yes it is, that's why my dad agreed to this. He wouldn't do it just for nothing. You know how he is." I said letting out a small chuckle.

"Do you wanna come with me Jess?" 

"ARE YOU SERIOUS?" she shouted.

"Well duh!" I sarcasticly stated.

"OF COURSE I WANNA COME" she said enthused.
