Open Question: My friend has a fake Id :/?
Well my best pal is planning on going on a trip. He is going to be staying in Florida because it is his first road trip. I would go with him but money is kinda tight and I am kinda nervous about the whole thing. He has an id that is fake. He told me he is not going to be drinking at the bar. He said he is just gonna go in and play pool dance or whatever. If he has a fake id will the people who check the cards at the front notice? He told me he would receive behind a whole bunch of people and he said that they go through the cards and send people in very quickly. He said that they take a quick look at the picture and make sure the birthday is right. Would they not notice. He told me not to worry he is not going to act dumb and have the cops confront him so he said he will be fine. I am still worried though cuz I like to watch out for my friends. He is in college and is going to be a paralegel. If he got caught might they just take it from him or possibly just toss him out? Thats what he told me. Or will they call the cops and have him arrested? What is the consequences of one? And if he does it anyways I am going to feel really bad cuz I did try to tell him he can receive in trouble.

Resolved Question: Is it okay to go in the pool with a belly button piercing?
So I have had my belly button pierced for exactly 4 weeks now (Sunday, January 7th was the 4 week mark). I am going to Florida with my family this Friday, the 12th which will pretty much be 5 weeks. I will be out in the sunshine and by/in the pool, is this okay? Will every that tanning lotion and chlorine and such be okay for it? What can I do to avoid infections? The healing process is going GREAT! It's really amazing so that's why I'm also super worried because I don't want to mess it up and prolong the healing process. But I'm completely on top of the H2Ocean cleaning.

Resolved Question: is this essay i wrote good? it is very long!?
"The Time Capsule" by Lurlene McDaniel is a very interesting and attention grabbing book. It shows the story of a set of twins, Adam and Ally who live in Florida. They are very similar except for one thing. At a young age Adam was diagnosed with leukemia. He got out of the hospital and said that he never wanted to put his family through that trouble again. He vowed he would never return to the hospital, and that he just wanted to live a 'normal' life from now on. Now, almost ten years later, only a few people besides their family knows of Adam's condition. Tessa, Ally's best pal knows about Adam's condition, but still loves him, even though Adam has a girlfriend, Kelly. Kelly, eventually finds out about Adam. Sawyer, Ally's boyfriend also mildly knows about Adams condition. Lastly, Adams best pal Wade knows about Adams condition. Although, some of these people prove to be not so loyal to Adam in the long run. Not many of the characters like Kelly. Adam does, Adams parents are okay with her, and Wade is okay with her. Ally doesn't like her because she feels Adam shouldn't be with a 'Preppy little miss Thing' and it also hurts her that Adam is not with her best pal. Sawyer dislikes her more that likes her because Ally does not really like her. And Tessa basically hates her because she has a feeling that she will hurt Adam. Little did they no that Adam was hiding something that was hurting himself. Adam and Ally went through a lot together. One main conflict in the book was their parents fighting. Ally was really worried at this point in the book because she went out to dinner after debate practice with her friends, and saw her dad sitting at a table with another lady. She was so shocked, that she said she lost her apatite and she headed home. While she was home, she found a picture of the family at disney, when they were little. She ran into Adam's room and told him that they should do that. He said that he didn't want to be close his parents because of their constant fighting. So ally decided that they would each take a couple of friends, it was just a matter of getting the money. Ally's mom, being busy with the upcoming election, said that she was to busy to go to disney, and slammed her office door. Ally's dad being busy with work said he couldn't go. Ally knew her dad couldn't resist her pleads, not because she was spoiled, but because she was a good debater. Finally after a minute or two, he gave in and said to take his credit card. Ally rushed up to tell Adam, and they started planning. On the trip was Wade, Kelly, Tessa, Adam, and Ally. Kelly's mom and dad didn't want her staying in Adams room so she had to stay with Tessa and Ally. The six hour steer to Disney was fun, and as soon as the got to the hotel rooms, they ran out to go to the parks. The first ride was space mountain, but after one ride Kelly felt sick so there was a coin toss to look who would stay with her. It was flipped that Wade would stay with her while the others were on space mountain. Tessa sat next to Adam, of course. After space mountain, they every went back to the hotel and there was a luau in the indoor pool. Adam came down in a black spandex suit, much to the confusion to others. He said that he said he forgot his swimsuit. After the luau, and mini pool party they every went to snooze. The second day they went to the animal kingdom and spent the day there. Ally woke up early the day the had to leave and she snuck down to the pool to watch the sunrise. Adam was there and they sat and talked for a while, and when Ally asked him why he was still in his black suit even though Sawyer and Wade offered him a swimsuit he said "I won't be needing one" and walked back to receive ready. That day it was raining and they drove home. Ally went to the debate meet and they won and got victory ice cream. every of a sudden, Ally got a very bad pain and said that she needed to go home. She had a feeling something was wrong with Adam. When she got home there was a note saying to arrive to the hospital. When she got there she found out her worst fear; Adam had experienced a relapse in his leukemia. Adam was at Kelly's home when he fainted. Kelly was a wreck, and so was Ally. Ally had to work through school, and quit the debate team. One time when Ally visited Adam, he was looking out the window. When she asked what was wrong he showed her a note. Kelly had broken up with him because she 'couldn't handle sthe stress of his illness' Ally was infuriated. The annual 'Snow Ball' was coming up and Adam couldn't go, but he wanted Ally to go. Ally went with Sawyer and when she got there, she almost started a battle. Kelly's date was Wade. Adams "best pal". Ally saw Kelly in the bathroom, and she went in as well. When Kelly came out of the stall she turned ghost white, and apologized to Ally. Ally interrupted her and said that she "never deserved Adam, no one liked her they were every nice for Adams sake, and over to have fun with Wade". Ally wen

Open Question: Help! I had a couple of Dreams & want to know the meanings?
I'm 16, It's kinda long but please help. Last night in a dream, my boyfriend broke up with me. I somehow got pregnant with his cousin but then I guess that disappeared in my dream. every of the sudden, I dream I was older. I was coming back from a trip in Japan. A business trip? Not sure. However, I was with a new guy. He was tall, and perfect. My type. When our trip came to a cease in Florida even though we were suppose to go to MN, I told him let's just stay for a few days to go to the United Kingdom. He simply said, "Alright!" and I was shocked and said, "Do you have the money!?" What do you know, he did have the money. We stayed at the most luxurious hotel ever. Every aspect of the hotel was well-defined in my dream. Especially a pool. It was huge. Water were being sprinkled from the ceiling, and then once you set foot in the pool, it automatically stopped... I was in pure heaven by amazement. Suddenly, my dad was in my dream and was drowning. I panicked, but ended up saving him. What do my dreams mean?

I can't seem to find anything on it. Anyone have any recollections or a link in which I might receive some more info.

Resolved Question: How do I convince my parents not to move?
I'm in 8th grade, I have 2 sisters in 7th and 6th grade. We every have amazing lives here on Long Island, New York. We have our friends and our sports. But of course my parents want to move again. In 5th grade, I moved to North Carolina from here, but after 5 months we moved back because we couldn't sell our home in NY. We moved there for absolutely no reason in the first place, just because they thought it was a little nicer. Now they want to move again, it's every they talk about and I sob everyday because they won't cease. They want to move back to where we used to live in North Carolina or a part in Florida. They try to convince me to want to move there by saying "Oh we could live in a beautiful mansion with a huge pool and we could go out to the lake so much more because it's so much warmer and you would be the IT girl there" and I keep on telling them I don't care I adore it here and I sob even thinking about leaving. I actually am crying as I type this. I tell them I don't want to leave because of my friends here and how much fun I have and the food and the area. They tell me I would make sooo many friends there, but they don't understand they aren't MY friends there, I have fun with MY friends not people in Florida. Plus the reason they want to move is because it's warmer there and it's cheaper. My dad has a GREAT job here and we can afford things and we already have a huge pool. My sister is on a competition cheerleading team, my other sister just got into lacrosse, I'm in an every-county chorus that is SO difficult to receive into, I'm already chosen as the spring track and field captain, my grades are pretty good, I'm in the middle of making my confirmation, my home was just below construction and now it's gorgeous, I have friends and have so much fun with them. I just don't know what I would ever do with myself if I had to leave this every. these answers made me sob more.

Resolved Question: What do you think of my story so far :) ?
Hey, here's the start of my story, thats about a high school for shape-shifters. The main character is called Josh who later discovers he can shape-shift. The story is called 'Shifting Through High School' and i've given u the start of it just to look if my spelling, grammar etc is okay :) Oh and im 12 so its kinda crap :L Point out any mistakes, any bits u liked, rate it out of 10 and tell me if you'd buy it if it were a real book :L ;; Shifting Through High School ;; “Mom, I’m going out, okay?” I called as I entered the vestibule. My mom popped her head round the pantry door. “Josh, wait!” “What?” “Who are you going with and where?” I gazed impatiently out the front door into the darkening sky. “Mom, I’m not a little kid anymore, I’m sixteen for crying out noisy! You don’t need to check up on me.” “I’m your mom; I have the right to know what you’re doing. And don’t talk like that!” She paused as she came out of the pantry. “Now, who are you going with and where?” I grunted so quietly that it was impossible for her to hear. “I’m going to the mall with Chelsea. Are you glad now?” “Yes, but don’t stay out too tardy, you have school tomorrow.” “I know, I know. Right, I’ll catch you later.” I turned, opening the door. The air that drifted in cooled down my overheated body. My mom always had the central heating up full which was totally unnecessary since we lived in Jacksonville, Florida. “Have fun!” She called just before the door slapped close again. I found my way down the long, dark steer to my Audi and opened the door. I’d forgotten to lock the doors after returning from the American football match earlier this morning, so I slid into the driver’s seat without every the confusions of buttons and keys. The engine jolted to life and I departed from the steer. The ride to Chelsea’s home was quick, only about five minutes. I had to admit it, I was jealous of Chelsea’s home. It really shouldn’t be called a home to be honest; it was more like a mansion, or even a palace. It was a humongous white glamorous building, three stories high, with a gym and a swimming pool. I pressed against the steering wheel, setting off the horn. It was only a few minutes before the big, wooden oak door opened and out strutted Chelsea. Her blonde hair was normally straightened, but tonight she’d curled it. She wore a light pink Abercrombie T-shirt with denim skinny jeans and a pair of pink pumps. I reached over the gear stick and pulled on the tiny handle of the passenger door. She caught the handle from the other side and pulled the door open. “Hey!” She greeted me warmly as she sat into the leather seat, closing the door behind her. “You look pretty tonight,” I complimented while putting the car into gear again. She laughed for a moment before replying. “Thanks, but you do realize that you say that every time you look me, don’t you?” “But you always look pretty,” I pointed out. She laughed again before changing the subject. “I need you to help me pick out a new dress for my birthday, ‘kay?” “Sure, but after do you want to go receive an ice cream or something? ‘Cause even on a Sunday night the weather is still toasting us alive.” I reached for the air conditioning, putting the chilly air up to full.

Voting Question: Belly Button Piercing?
I had a few questions about navel piercings! I live in Florida and naturally during the summer the beach and pools are a big part of my life. However, I also adore belly dancing. At the end of this semester (I’m 20 and at university) I plan to try out for the belly dance team at my school. Between preparing for try-outs this semester, the ocean during the summer, and likely being on the team next semester (so many practices and performances) I’m trying to figure out the best time to receive it done. First off, how long till I can swim in the ocean and lay out at the beach? I look everything from two weeks to 8 weeks or longer online. What if I use a water proof band-aid? Secondly, how long till I’m able to seriously stretch and use my belly? I’d think summer would be best as most of the time I’d be able to let it ‘air’ and I wouldn’t have to worry about belly dance practices. Thanks for the advice!

Resolved Question: Do You Think My Writing is good?
This is my topic: For vacation, your family is planning on going camping in the mountains. However, you would rather go somewhere else. Write a paper to your family explaining why they should go where you want to go. This is my writing: Please mom, I've already been to the mountains, I know what it looks like there. every we do is climb, go camping, and sing songs.I really don't like it there. every my friends are going on a real vacation. Take a moment to think where you want to go more, the dry snowy mountains where you can barley do anything, or beachy Hawaii where you can relax in the sun. Remember a couple years ago, when we took that trip to Florida. You were always smiling and laughing with me. Remember how we would walk along the beach watching the sunset slowly lower behind the ocean, and how the sand would receive caught between your toes. You loved that, that will never happen on the mountains. No hotel, no gourmet meals, no pool, there's nothing fun there. There is a lot to do in Hawaii, like surfing, searching for seashells on the beach, and not to mention shopping. In the mountains you can't surf, search for seashells, or store. Why do you think it is so interesting there? I think it's so boring, really. Think about it, the icy, boring, mountains, or warm, sunny, Hawaii. You decide.

Resolved Question: Need objective opinions--any groomers, vets, trainers, owners out there?
I will be getting a dog in a few weeks and, while I have narrowed it down to a few breeds, I am simply stuck as to which one would really suit my family best. We want a big to giant breed (it's a firm preference--I adore bigger dogs), known for its stable and sweet disposition. I have three kids (ages 6-12), possess a home, and have no restrictions on breed by the HOA (other than number of dogs owned). Through years of research and some limited experience with big dogs, I recognize that certain breeds are out due to my personality and circumstance. I am divorced so I will be the pack leader; I do not want a naturally more dominant breed. I know some breeds (doberman, rottie, etc.) usually require a more confident, experienced leader than I am. While I am fully capable of being clear who the boss is (me), I'm not sure I will be honestly able to handle a particularly intelligent/strong-willed breed. Furthermore, it will be just me and the kids and I will not be able to give certain breeds the high level excercise they need (I don't run or hike). I am, however, fortunate enough to work out of my home so I will be home most of the day. I plan on daily walks and play sessions in the back yard (fenced so the dog will have free romping time back there). Dog parks for free running/playing are a given, at least a couple of times a week. We would like a dog that will be on the friendlier side with anything and everything. Some dogs are more aloof, less playful, some are more wary of anyone outside the family, some are just big "i adore everyone" goofballs. We are leaning toward the goofball. I absolutely do want a protective dog but one that will perhaps let its size be the deterrent, rather than a scary growl :) I do not want a serious watchdog/guardog. I prefer a dog that will only receive serious and physically protective if it's absolutely and obviously needed. On the other hand, and please forgive my rambling, I do want a dog that will have a natural affinity towards kids and one who would prefer to calmly "watch" over the kids (or join in the play!). Now, I have searched and searched the shelters but where I live, almost every single dog I have arrive across (of the size I am looking for) is mixed with a breed that either is very energetic (i.e. lab x border collie) or one I know I am not experienced enough to properly train and be leader to (pit bull, ridgeback, chow chow, etc. with pit being in 90% of the dogs--great, loving dogs but require a more experienced owner, in my opinion). I don't want to look into Goldens or Labs (much experience with them within family/friendship circles and, while they are really wonderful, they just arent the right dog for us). I know ANY dog can be the perfect dog because it's the humans who shape the dog, but genetics and breed do play a role. There are breeds who have it in their genes to hunt, herd, etc. This is why I am making my list and narrowing it down. I need to make sure I am not going to end up with a dog who needs more of a "job" than I can give it (ex: a border collie would HATE living with me). I'm still open to adopting/rescue, and here are the breeds I adore and am looking at. Perhaps there is a trait about a certain dog on the list (such as being a bit willful, too aloof, etc.), and I just don't know about it yet? If anybody has any experience/information that could help me narrow it down even further, I would greatly appreciate it. Newfoundland Saint Bernard Bernese Mountain Dog Great Dane English Mastiff Swiss Mountain Dog Irish Wolfhound Great Pyr Now, my dream dog is a Newfoundland but I am not dead-set on that breed due to the fact that I live in Florida and don't have a swimming pool ;) Perhaps there is a breed I missed; maybe there's a dog not on my list that would work well? I looked into Collie's too, but just not sure yet. I welcome suggestions! Thank You

Resolved Question: Siesta Key, why do your hotels suck so bad? Anyone?
Okay, I'm really wanting to go to a Florida beach this summer for vacation! I have looked every over the place, tripadvisor, yahoo travel, google, everywhere. I cannot find a good place to stay. every of the hotels/condos/etc seem to have sub-standard decor. The rooms every look like they came out of the 80's. We really want to stay in Siesta Key. I've heard that their beaches are the best in Florida, and possibly even best in the states. Can you help me? Do you know any places that you have loved to stay? At this point, I'd even take any hotel in Florida that you loved. Our hopes: On the beach, needs to be a 2 bdrm suite, with pool

Resolved Question: I have a vacant house I am trying to sell. Can I ask the bank to suspend my payments temporarily?
I had to leave Florida and move to VA for personal reasons but haven't been able to sell my home in FL. Making payments on both houses as well as the lawn and pool service, etc. to keep the FL home presentable for potential buyers is killing me. Everything but my kids shoes are still current for the time being though. An investor I spoke to about buying the home said the profit margin wasn't big enough for him to pursue but recommended that I contact the mortgage company (credit union) and ask for them to suspend my payments for six months while I try to sell the home. I have never heard of such a thing but, according to him, it is fairly common in these types of situations. Has anyone else ever heard of this? If so, do you know what it is called so I can look into it further? Thanks! I have found some info on it. It is reffered to as a mortgage forbearance but I am not sure it is for me. It seems that it is either designed to allow a window for borrowers to bring their payments up to date. For buyers, like myself, who haven't fallen behind they usually look for a lump sum of the suspended payments at the end of the term, which would be stupid on my part. I am going to research it further, however. I am married and have been told "no" before, lol.

Resolved Question: What do you think of my short story? I got bored and wrote it, im in the 9th grade.?
When I recall some of the best times in my life, I often think about a little trip I took back in the summer of '04. If made into a movie, this story could be considered a drama, comedy, or even a romance tale, but most would consider it every three rolled into one. It came about suddenly and unexpectedly. My pal of many years, Bert, and his mom decided to join several of their friends at the last minute on a trip to their favorite vacation spot, Destin, Florida. I was then invited along by Bert as we did most everything together. Besides the planning that comes along with most vacations, it started out very typical. We loaded up the car on a Friday afternoon, and planned to leave the next morning, however, at 3 AM we every three, (Bert, myself, and Bert's mom), found ourselves wide awake and, figuring we wouldn't receive much snooze anyway, decided to depart for Florida right then and there. After a quick cease at Hardee's to fulfill our tardy night munchies, we were on our way. To take up the time we decided to watch some movies on a portable DVD player we had brought along, which in theory was a good idea, but not in the backseat with Bert. He was quickly asleep and had taken up most of the room. I tried to keep my possess space, but within 30 minutes he had sprawled out every over the backseat, including on top of me, and I couldn't stand it. I decided to move up to the front seat with Bert's mom, which wasn't so bad, except for the fact that for the next eight hours, of which about 3 of them I had the pleasure of sleeping, she forced me to hear to some of the worst music I have ever experienced in my entire life. I'm still not quite sure who it was singing, but a female country singer giving her rendition of famous Elvis songs has never sounded so bad. At about noon my ears were finally granted some relief when Bert awoke and commanded his mom to turn on some new music and cease torturing me. The next few hours were not so bad. I had good music, someone to talk to, and some nice ocean views. Even with every this, the time couldn't arrive soon enough for us to receive out of the car and receive our vacation started. Right around 3PM we finally rolled into the parking lot of our motel, The Ocean Moon Inn. I couldn't wait to receive unpacked, receive poolside, and receive some tropical drinks in my hand...sure, I got every that, but I also got something I didn't bargain for. As I stepped out of the car the first thing I had to do was stretch, as it had been a very long and cramped ride. As I was doing so I gazed up to take in what would be my home for the next week, and as I swung my view from left to right, there she was, sitting with a group of friends on the staircase leading up to the second floor. We made eye contact for what seemed to be forever, and then she glanced away. My heart thumped, I felt a sudden rush of adrenaline, and then I quickly grabbed my bags and made my way down a hallway and out of sight to think about what had just happened. I wasn't sure if Bert had seen her or not, I was sure he noticed the noisy group of mostly boys surrounding one or two girls, but I wasn't sure if he had really noticed the one that I had, or the way that she looked at me. The motel was a sort of "L" shape. It had two stories, and was quite tiny with only about 30 rooms. They every opened up to the pool which was in the middle of the "L". It was an outdoor motel with no lobby, no indoor hallways, no convention rooms, as in you were either inside a bedroom, or you were outdoors. Bert followed me as we quickly made our way to room 205. We were familiar with its location as we had both stayed in it only a year before, along with Bert having stayed in it with his family for nearly the past 5 years. We opened the door and a chilly breeze rushed us from inside the room. Bert unknowingly plopped down onto one of the beds, and rolled over as if to go to snooze. I stood there for a few moments and then blurted out, "Did you look that girl?" "What girl," said Bert, his voice muffled by the pillow his face was planted in. "The one at the top of the steps!" Bert rolled over, "Which one at the top of the steps...the dark haired one?" I nodded my head. "Yeah, what about her?" said Bert.” Did you think she was hot?" I didn't answer. I just stood there with a "DUH" look on my face. A few more seconds passed and finally Burt assured me, "She wasn't that great." Dismissing the idea entirely and rolling back over. For the next hour or two we relaxed, watched MTV, and ate Cheetos...correction, Bert relaxed, watched MTV, I also ate the Cheetos (and some Ho-Ho's), but I couldn't do anything but think about those few seconds that I made eye contact with the girl on the stairs and the feeling that she gave me, even though I didn't even know her. I didn't want to make a big deal out of it, as Bert obviously didn't feel the same way as I did, but I couldn't receive her out of my head. I wond

Resolved Question: Good plants for Florida (zone 10)?
I have a big backyard, but it's very ugly. I mean there's no flowers or grass, just patches of weeds here and there and two orange trees. We had a big pool back there a while ago, but after taking it out it left a huge dead area in the middle of the yard. I figure it would be nice to have a pretty backyard for once, but I've only planted two flowers in my life, so I don't know much. I plan on buying an aerogarden to help the plants grow quickly, then I will transfer them outside, and I've been looking for seeds on amazon, but I don't know if they'll grow here. What plants could you recommend for my zone? I can't really have any flowers as I'm highly allergic to bees. Any advice would be appreciated.

Voting Question: What is wrong with my brother? How would you parent him if he were your son?
My brother is 24. My family moved to Florida the year after he graduated HS. He was okay with it. He worked part time jobs in the mean time until he started college at 20. He'd only go in the spring because it'd give him medical insurance for the whole year until 23. He'd drop 1/2 the classes he took because he was lazy. He than gave up on college and wanted to receive his CDL license to steer a truck. He has stalled on getting a CDL B for 2 1/2 years though because he didn't do well for CDL A (tractor trailer) even though they refunded his money. He thinks no one would hire him until he's 25 for insurance. In the last 15 months, he's only worked one month (with Fed Ex job seasonally during Xmas). He still spends a lot of money going on tiny vacations. He ran up $5,000 in credit card debt in 1 year. Throughout most of that time he said he wouldn't work any job unless it was one he wanted (mainly truck driving). He and my dad hated Florida and cried about wanting to move home. My dad didn't like it because of work. We went back to NJ. My parents maintained owning their home down there though. My parents and I want to move back to Florida if they can like up work. My brother blames my parents for destroying his life (even though he has nothing here and we live an hour from where we used to live). The home in Florida is beautiful (2 levels, has a pool, gated community). The home in NJ is not that nice. My parents said they'd never charge either of us rent. My dad said he'll continue to pay for his car insurance. He said he'll even pay our gas and motels to receive us down there (I'm 21). My brother thinks my dad should pay for him to go on a vacation to West Virginia to meet a girl off the internet. He thinks my dad should give him money to go back up to NJ and visit. He said he'll arrive up every 6 weeks either way even if he's not working. He said he'd consider living in AC 4 days during the week in hotels (getting free comped rooms but he has to pay tax) and live in his car the other 3. I told him he has it made compared to most 24 year olds. I said he should be greatful he has patient loving parents. I said you're choosing to move at your age. No one is making you. Most people think he should seek counseling.

Resolved Question: What do you think of my story/novel? :)?
Shifting Through High School “Mom, I’m going out, okay?” I called as I entered the vestibule. My mom popped her head round the pantry door. “Josh, wait!” “What?” “Who are you going with and where?” I gazed impatiently out the front door into the darkening sky. “Mom, I’m not a little kid anymore, I’m sixteen for crying out noisy! You don’t need to check up on me.” “I’m your mom; I have the right to know what you’re doing.” She came out of the pantry and added, “And don’t talk to me like that!” She returned back to the main subject and repeated her earlier question,”Now, who are you going with and where?” I grunted so quietly that it was impossible for her to hear. “I’m going to the mall with Chelsea. Are you glad now?” She sighed, folding her arms across her chest. “No, I’m not. You’re always with her, Josh. When was the last time you spent some time with Jason? Or even Scott and Liam?” “Mom, Jason, Scott and Liam don’t care, they’ve got girlfriends too.” “Fine, you win. But don’t stay out too tardy, there’s school tomorrow.” “I know, I know. Right, I’ll catch you later.” I turned, opening the door. The air that drifted in cooled down my overheated body. My mom always had the central heating up full which was totally unnecessary since we lived in Jacksonville, Florida. “Remember what I said!” she called just before the door slapped close again. I found my way down the long, dark steer to my Audi and opened the door. I’d forgotten to lock the doors after returning from the football game earlier this morning, so I slid into the driver’s seat without every the confusions of buttons and keys. The engine jolted to life and I departed from the steer. The ride to Chelsea’s home was quick, only about five minutes. I had to admit it, I was jealous of Chelsea’s home. It really shouldn’t be called a home to be honest; it was more like a mansion, or even a palace. It was a glamorous building, three stories high and a dazzling shade of white. The inside was the best though, with a gym, swimming pool, sauna and anything else that you could think of. Ever since Chelsea’s dad walked out, her mom turned the home into a paradise for the both of them. And Chelsea, being an only child, meant that her life was at its full. I pressed against the steering wheel, setting off the horn. It was only a few minutes before the big, wooden oak door opened and out strutted Chelsea. Her blonde hair was normally straightened, but tonight she’d curled it. She wore a light pink Abercrombie T-shirt with denim skinny jeans and pink shoes which were flat – I wasn’t good with girls’ shoes. I reached over the gear stick and pulled on the tiny handle of the passenger door. She caught the handle from the other side and pulled it open. “Hey,” she greeted me warmly as she sat into the leather seat, closing the door behind her. “You look pretty tonight,” I complimented while putting the car into gear again. She laughed for a moment before replying, “Thanks, but you do realize that you say that every time you look me, don’t you?” “But you always look pretty,” I pointed out. She laughed again before changing the subject. “I need you to help me pick out a new dress for my birthday, ‘kay?” “Sure, but after do you want to go receive an ice cream or something? ‘Cause even on a Sunday night the weather is still toasting us alive.” I reached for the air conditioning, putting the chilly air up to full. “Yeah, that sounds nice.” “Are you going to school tomorrow? Or are you ditching?” “Ditching, I need to plan everything for my seventeenth birthday, remember? Do you want to help me organize it? There might be an award at the end of it.” She grinned and I understood the meaning of the last statement. “Sure, I’ll be more than glad to help. Mostly ‘cause I’ll miss school.” She nudged me and made a face. “I was joking,” I laughed. “It’s mostly ‘cause I’ll be with you.” I removed my right hand from the steering wheel and flexed it over her shoulder, but she shrugged it off about two seconds later. “What?” I asked, suddenly curious. Was it my new aftershave? “I don’t want to die.” She put me into a total wave of confusion. “What?” I repeated. “What I mean is that you should steer with two hands so we don’t accident.” “I won’t accident,” I reassured her. “You’re still using both hands.” “Fine, I’ll steer carefully. You know, you’re just like my mom.” “Thanks.” “That wasn’t a compliment,” I muttered below my breath. I turned on my left indicator as we neared the mall’s parking lot. “What colour of dress should I receive?” “It doesn’t matter, you look hot in every colour,” I responded, pulling into an empty parking space. “That doesn’t help me much,” she complained as the engine died down. “I’m sure you’ll find something.” We left the car and strolled through the dimly lit parking lot, slowly progressing towards the entrance. "Oh my gosh, Josh! Look!" She pointed eagerly to somewhere inside the mall. I squinted my eyes. "What?" "Lo "Look at that dress!" She emphasized. "I can't look it-wait!" Before I knew it she was storming towards the dress that she'd seen and I had to run to catch up. Inside the mall was busy; mostly full of kids from school hanging out with their mates. The big rock fountain in the middle of the first floor sparked water on those who passed, including Chelsea and I. My legs began to grow sleepy so I slowed down my pace and followed her into the tiny store. She gazed at a mannequin that wore a very short, turquoise, sparkly sequenced dress. She reached out and brushed her fingers along the fabric. "That's the one," she whispered, still gawking at it. She shifted her eyes from the mannequin to the employee behind the till. ;; What you think? I'm only 12 so its crap ;] Rate out of 10 & constructive criticism would be helpful :) Oh and the story is about a high school for shape shifters with a lot of twists in it >:) This is just an extract from the start :) So what you think? :)
