My First and Only Love

Chapter Twenty-Nine

Cassandra:
     Time passes in a blur. It's amazing how fast the rest of high school went by.

Before I knew it, I was getting closer to Cami...

Charlotte, Cami, and I were all sitting on my bed. "Ok ok my turn," Charlotte said. "Never have I ever... kissed a guy named Spencer." "Cheater!" I exclaimed. Cami shoved her playfully," You suck." We all laughed. "He's such a prick," Cami said. "I can't believe he broke up with you when you were in the hospital," Charlotte added. I sighed," He just uses girls for sex. It's who he is." "What a bitch," we all agreed. "You know Cami, it's time you join my bookshelf pictures." I pulled out my phone and the three of us took a selfie. I smiled at Cami," Tomorrow you join my very exclusive bookshelf." She smiled and pulled in me into a hug," You are a great sister." "You too." "Hey me too!" Charlotte exclaimed joining the hug.

Before I knew it, I was buying a car...

"This is so exciting!" Carina squealed," Gabriel didn't bring me along to buy his car." "In my defense, you were on vacation in the Bahamas." I chuckled. I brought them and my sisters along to help me choose. They were probably the ones who would always ride with me anyways. My eyes landed on a wine colored Ford, Fusion. "It's so beautiful." Everyone followed my gaze and they all loved it too. "Can we trade cars?" Gabriel asked. "Screw you," Cami said with a chuckle,"Let my sister enjoy her car in peace." "You only say that because you know you are gonna ride it all the time." I laughed," We're all gonna ride it."

Before I knew it, I was starting junior year...

Carina, Gabriel, and I walked into school with our junior sashes. We had stayed up all night making them. Charlotte helped of course. A fashionista is very useful in these situations. "I can't believe we are juniors..." Carina said softly. Gabriel held both of our hands," We are officially awesome." I laughed," We always have been. Well see you guys in lunch!" I said walking to my first class.

Before I knew it, I was a cheerleader...

"Cassandra!" Carina screamed once I picked up the phone. "What?! What happened?!" "Check the school website! NOW!" "Ok ok!" I went to the website and realized why she was all crazy. "We made it?.... We made it!" I exclaimed. "Charlotte!" I yelled. Charlotte rushed into my room," What?!" "The three of us got in! We're cheerleaders!" "No way! Carina and us all made it?!" "Yes!" "Ahhhhhh!" And the next day I was officially wearing the cheerleading uniform. Not gonna lie, I looked great in it.

Before I knew it, I was walking down the aisle...

Don't worry I'm not getting married. My mom is. Charlotte and I walked together in our long aqua bridesmaids dresses. We stood next to Jacob. "Take care of her," I ordered. He nodded and smiled," Will do." I watched as Cami walked in with her brother. Yup, I got a stepbrother now too. Cami was the maid of honor (it's not cause she's the favorite, it's cause she's the oldest) and my new stepbrother, Jason, was the best man (for being the only guy in the family.) Turns out Jacob was married before we moved over here. Jason is one year younger than Charlotte. I watched as my grandfather walked my mom down the aisle. I started crying," She looks beautiful." "Duh, I did her makeup," Charlotte said a few tears falling down her cheeks too.

Before I knew it, it was my junior ring ceremony...

Carina, Gabriel, and I posed for our families showing off our rings. I got a silver one with a bright ruby. Ruby is my birthstone since I was born in July. Cami wore hers too even though she was now in college. "My sis is rocking her ring," she said with a smile. "Yeah I am!" My mom pulled me into a hug," I love you baby." "I love you too mommy."

Before I knew it, it was summer...

I rushed out of school once the bell rang. My siblings and I were throwing a pool party. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. We moved in with Jacob, Cami, and Jason. Now we have a pool. As Charlotte, Jason, and I arrived, the party was all set. "Good job Cami. You nailed the decorations." "Not gonna lie. Mom and dad helped a lot too. Now go change! The guests should be here shortly." And they did arrive shortly. As we went down the stairs in our swimming outfits, the guests rushed in. "Last one in the pool is a rotten tomato!" I exclaimed jumping into the pool.
