Chapter 1:

“Baby you light up my world like no body else,

the way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed,

but when you smile at the ground it aint hard to tell you don’t know-o-o,

you don’t know your beautiful” I sung along to the radio as I made my way down to my best friend, Molly’s house. God I love that song. It makes me feel good about my self after what happened 4 years, 5 months, and 16 days ago. Yes I keep track. It was so horrible, that i could never forget it.

I pulled into the driveway of her beautiful house. Her parents were filthy rich and she got a lot of money when she turned 18. Molly even offered for me to move in with her but i rejected. I inherited my parents house because they wanted me to have it, and intend to keep it that way. My parents died last year in a car crash about a month after my 18th birthday. I honestly don’t know how I’m still living. My parents were my life. They gave me everything, and god repaid them by taking there lives away. I was quite mad at him for that for the first couple of weeks, but after a while I got used to my parents not being around me. I realized that everything happens for a reason, and I guess it was their time to leave. I shed a little tear just thinking about them but quickly wiped it away. I didn’t want to enter Molly’s housewith my eyes all watery. I took my overnight bag out of the trunk of my car that my parents got me for my 18th birthday. It wasn't the best, but I'm gonna keep it forever. I was about to take the key out that I have to her house that she gave me a while back, when a smiling Molly opened the door for me instead.

"Why are you in such a happy mood?" I asked her

"what took you so long? Ems I've been waiting forevvvvaaa" She replied avoiding the question

"And again, why are you in such a happy mood?" I asked again

"Just put your bag up in my room and come staright downstairs k?" whta was up with her she ignored my question twice! I ran up to her room and threw my bag on the floor and came back downsatirs only to find her sitting in her carpeted living room with about 14 phones and a radio sitting in front of her. I started to ask her what all this was, but she just put her finger to her lips signifighing for me to be quiet. It was then that I heard the radio talking.

"And in exactly 6 min we will be having a contest for two free tickets to London!"The radio announced. They put on some song by Taylor Swift something about getting back together. I wasn't really sure because the second the radio guy put on the song, she started talking to me about this contest.

"ok so hears the deal, z100 is giving away two tickets to London inlcuding an apartment, colledge for a year, and a couple hundred pounds to get us started. And I plan on winning this contest" I just stared at her with disbelief. "oh cmon Ems! this could be are chance! we could meet our prince charmings and live happily ever after!" I snorted at her comment. Does she really just expect me to get up and go with her to London, England and leave my amazing life behind? I mean it's not so amazing, I live in a house alone and work as a waitress in some restauraunt downtown. "PLEASSSSEEEE?"

"oh fine"I just said very unenthustiasticly. At that moment the radio dude started speaking again. Molly whispered in my ear that when he sais go, i should press number 1 on all the phones as fast as i could. I guess she had them on speed dial.

After of what seemed like the longest 2 and a half minutes of my life, the radio person finally screamed "GO!" Molly and I pressed number 1 on all the phones in the house. I my as well help her i mean what are the odds of us winning, like 1 in 2000000? The radio person yelled stop and announce that they had a winner.

"we have a winnner! if you are the owner of this phone please pick up!" Mols and I put our ears to every single phone until I finally found the winning phone. Oh shoot I did not expect us to win at all. I picked up the winning iphone and started talking.

"uh, hi so I think I won?" I said into the phone while looking at Molly who was screaming inside

"what's your name sweety?"

"um, Emma?" I said more than a question then an answer.

"well Emma, you just won two free tickets to London, England, a scholarship to colledge for a year there, an apartment and a couple hundred pounds to get you started" I laughed a little, because that is what Molly said just a few moments before. "you just come to our radio station in new york with the secret code i'm about to text you, and we'll give you your tickets, and the details on ur trip"

"uh, ya sure I could come right now if that's alright" I said unsure of exactly what I should say back

"ya that would be awesome!"Mr. Radio said back. I hung up the phone and less than a minute later, the iphone lit up indicating it got a text. I looked at the screen with Molly and right away, Molly and I were in the car on our way to New York.
