Last One Standing

Chapter 1

     My names Ava May Smith it was the year of 2017 , Halloween night. My friends and I decided to go check out an old abounded Tiffany house and this is my story.

     I was sitting on my sofa reading The Vampire Diaries when my phone started buzzing. It was a group call that my friends were trying to start, I sighed and declined it trying to focus but five seconds later it rang again. I rolled my eyes while slamming my book shut "ok what is so important, I'm trying to read." I held my face back away from the camera a little shaking my head at my friend Owen Robert Dangsworth  who was having troubles with his camera.

     Me and Owen had been good friends since 2nd grade. Owen was known as the cute nerd or as I liked to call him, my teddy bear.

     "Dang laptop its brand new how can it not be working." He said. I sighed and waited impatiently for him to fix it while another person joined. It was another one of my close friends Loren  Ray Allen. Loren and I used to be enemies until I helped her get through her parents divorce, it was really hard on her but she eventually got stronger. " Stupid laptop, Ava is it working yet can you see me?" I heard Owen say. I ducked my head in my sweater sleeve laughing. "No Owen I can't." Loren asked "Where did you get it, the dumpster?" Loren started snickering and I felt a little bad for Owen.

     I heard Owen sigh, I smiled. "Where did you get it Owen?" He sighed "it was on sale at some garage place or whatever." I watched Loren start laughing and I smiled "oh Owen why." I rubbed my head against my arm shaking it. I heard a loud tap as his camera came on. Owen threw his arms back laying back in his seat. "There we go see, it works now." I leaned back smiling. I jumped up quickly when I noticed my best friend/crush joined the call. I quickly shut my camera off yanking my hair down. "Uh oh she's getting ready for her man." I heard Loren say. I rolled my eyes trying to ignore her. As I ran my fingers thru the knots in my hair I watched Loren make funny faces trying to act like me. Jokingly she started flickering her eye lashes at me. "Oh if it isn't the gorgeous Jackson Robert Brown, so dreamy." I rolled my eyes and turned my camera back on. I watched Jackson take a big sip of  his soda, as he sat up he said, "So guys, whats the plan for halloween this year?" "Wait guys I figured we all could just come to my house with our own bags of candy and some hot chocolate." I said. Jackson laughed, "and some beers." I shook my head. "No Jackson, not a party with beers and cup pong just a friendly movie night." "Whoop whoop, party at Ava's this Saturday." I heard Loren chant. I rolled my eyes, "no, no parties!" "Ok it's official, party at Ava's Saturday." Loren cheered. "no, no wait." I said. and right then everyone cheered and hung up. I closed my laptop in defeat and shook my head. The only plus side of throwing a party was to spend more time with Jackson and do things he likes. I smiled and stared out at the moon through my bedroom window. Maybe this wouldn't be a bad idea after all. I can't wait to see what the night brings us.
