Dreaming of the Stars

Chapter One
The Football Game


This story starts in the summer after Aslan brought life back to Narnia and the White Witch was defeated. Though it does not start in Narnia at all.

She laughed as her boyfriend picked her up and twirled her around. Their football team, of which he was running back for, had won their homecoming game and he had scored the winning touchdown. She had hopped over the railing of the stands and had found him quickly and he was celebrating with her.

Now planting quick kisses on her cheek, she threw her arms around his neck. At this moment, life for it appeared Sarah Eagleson couldn't be better. She wasn't the most popular girl at school or even the prettiest, but that didn't matter to her. She did have the greatest best friend in the whole world, a wonderful boyfriend, and in another two years would be graduating high school. Most importantly she would be free from her mother and stepfather at that point. Life then would be complete for her, she thought

"We did it Sarah!" Mark, he boyfriend, exclaimed and twirled her around once again. She had been initially amazed when he first asked her out last year, but quickly fell for him. And while he never really said it out loud she knew it was the same for him. He spun her once again and she giggled.

"I know, go get changed," she said, playfully hitting his chest, which was well covered with padding under his jersey. "I'll meet you by front gate."

Mark smiled his dazzling smile that she loved and gave her a quick peck on the lips and then ran off to follow his teammates. Sarah walked off the field and was soon ambushed by her best friend, Lydia. Lydia and Sarah were completely different, and they often joked about that. Lydia was tall (at 6 feet), looked like a model, and was star of the girl's basketball team with strawberry red hair and ivory skin. Sarah on the other hand was short (at 5'4" feet), very dark brown hair and eyes to match, with tanned skin that only got darker when she spent any amount of time in the sun.

"Congrats on your boy scoring the winning touch down," Lydia said, smiling widely. "So, heading over to gym? Gonna go to the dance?"

Sarah fell into step with her friend. Her steps were two for every one of Lydia's, but to the short girl this was normal. "Of course," she laughed, "Mark would be devastated, especially after that game. He'll want to hear everyone sing his praises tonight."

Lydia rolled her eyes. "Well, at least you have someone to go with. I however get go home, for I am not attending another dance with out a date." It was a curse of Lydia's. While she was gorgeous, she was one of the tallest girls in the school and rarely was asked out from the boys they went to school with.

Sarah made a face. "I'm sorry Lydia. I promise one day you'll find a guy. We just go to school with a bunch of losers." The girls laughed and joked while Sarah guided the way over to front gate in front of the locker rooms.

They were discussing an up coming project when Mark came out and stole Sarah away from Lydia. The small dark hair girl said her good-byes to her friend, expecting to see her tomorrow.

Expecting was the key word.
