Long Story Short

Chapter One

* I never would have guessed that my best friend would turn into my worst nightmare. We did everything together and never fought . When we were together we had the best times. She moved into my house when her parents died in a car crash and we could never have been closer to one another. It all started to spiral downwards from the moment we begged to go to the beach. I had an awful feeling about it ,but never said anything to any one.*

'I'm not going to ask her you have to do that."  Rachel said to me. I looked at her and stuck my tounge out.

" Yeah but you have to come with me though." I declared. She started to follow me down the stairs. we were going to ask my mom If we could go to the beach for spring break next week.

"Hey Mrs. Lefebvre, Meghan has something to ask you." She said to my mother when we found her in the kitchen. I looked at Rachel and  shushed her.

"Ok Meghan can you hurry up and  I need to get to work Sweetheart." My mother said to  me as she was getting ready for work.

"Well Rachel and I were wondering if it was alright if we could drive to the beach for spring break next week. Would that be alright?" I couldn't believe I had Just asked that, what were we thinking she would never say yes to us.

"Alright. Just remember stranger danger and all that." She said as she left the house.

I almost had a heart attack. Was I dreaming? Did she just say yes? I turned to Rachel. She was Jumping up and down in joy.

"YES! Lets go pack!" She said and ran back up the stairs and then called down to me saying " Are you coming?"

 " Yeah I'm coming." I said as I slowly made my way up the stairs. When I walked into my room she looked at me and asked " Are you alright? Your pale."

I said " Yeah Just  a little taken by surpise though. I never would have guessed my mother would say yes to that, she's so prtective of me and you."

"Oh well maybe she just realized we are old enough to take can of ourselves while we are there, I mean we are 18." Rachel assured me.

I walked over to my closet and grabbed out my duffle bag and suitcase. I layed them out on my bed and opened them. My clothes were the kind of clothes everyone wanted so I just grabbed a bunch of them off the hangers and threw them in my bags.

Rachel left my room and went to her room which used to be out guest room. She went to go pack her stuff as well. I figured I might as well go help her seeing as I was done packing my clothes and when the day comes I would pack my bathroom things. 

I walked into her room and said "Here let me help you pack."

"Thanks but I'm almost done, I just need one more outfit and then i'll pack my bathroom things the night of." She said.

" Alright ,well i'm going to go make sure I have everything in my bag that I need for in the car." I told her.

"Ok. don't forget to set your alarm on tomorrow night. We don't have school on Friday, Teacher work day." She reminded me.

" I won't as long as you don't forget to get up at the time I set the alarm." I said jokingly and laughed at my own joke. Rachel laughed along with me and said " I don't think i'd even be able to sleep, I'd be too exicted to." and she smiled.
