A/N: Hey everyone! This is just a copy of a short story that I had to write for English class as an assignment. I decided that I'd like to post it on here, just in case anyone I know was curious about how my story turned out, or for anyone who would just like to read it to see what it is about. I hope you enjoy! :)
