I remember the time before all this madness awaited me. Then again, was there ever that time? I was waitng for Christmas break, as were the other young, adolescent soon to be teens. Quite frankly my reason for leaving was not the same as everyone else. I highly disliked breaks or vacations but with everything going on in my almost always eventful life I just needed a break. Me and my father went to Mammoth and skiied. I remember the feeling of full effortless joy. It was as if everything made sense and nothing mattered. Soaring through the snowy hills and being free. Nathan and I decided it was time to change things. I warned him about my past but he didnt take me seriously.

It was the last weekend until school was back and Haylee decided we should see a movie with Nathan and David. We saw Anchorman 2 and Right before Haylee and David left Nathan said the words I was dying to hear. "Will you be mine?" I jumped onto him screaming yes! Those words still ring in my head. We kissed and it was full of passion and lust and soon to be young love. I was his first kiss.
