Cokeandunicorns Stories

Down the street from Simon, there's an empty lot. In that lot, a beautiful house used to stand. A family used to live there. There were two parents and seven children, one of which was Simon's good friend. Cricket had always been different, but she was smart and caring, and that's all Simon needed. Then, there was the fire. It burned quickly and then left, taking the girl with it. Now, two years after the fire, the case has been reopened. There is talk of a strange girl in the city. Simon is being questioned by the police. They ask him questions about his old friend, but the girl they describe to him is nothing like Cricket at all. But Simon begins to wonder if the real Cricket was ever there before.
