A Not So Sweet Sixteen

Introduction

It all started the night before my sixteenth birthday. That was the night I was turned. If you really want to understand you need to go back 12 days ago, 4 days before it happened.

Chapter One

"Ah, Miss Macalister, I see you've decided to join us." Mr. Kadly said as I walked in. I took my seat at the back of the room and took out my notebook. "I understand you're new here, but I do expect you to be on time after nearly a week."

"Yes, sir." I replied quickly, trying to get everyone's eyes off of me. All but one person looked away. Dylan. One of the few people I liked there. He was different, kind of Goth, minus the makeup. But he was always there like he was stalking me or something.

He was the closest thing I had to a friend. Sure he was kind of creepy at times, but hey, he doesn't think I'm a freak for not being all preppy. I smiled a greeting and then we paid attention to Kadly. After the end of class we headed to our lockers.

"You get the streets mixed up again?" He asked with a stupid grin on his face.

"Yea," I said, "this town is too damn big. I so missed the biggest building around here. I live a whole two streets away." He started to laugh. We stopped long enough to put our stuff in our lockers and then we headed on to study hall.

"Are you going to come to my birthday party? I'm turning sixteen and my parents are trying to make a big deal out of it."

"I dun no. When is it?"

"Saturday. I'm going to order pizza and watch some movies. Some of my old friends are going to come and stay the weekend."

"Sure, why not. There going to be cake?"

"Three sweet layers of chocolate on chocolate fudge, topped off with chocolate syrup and chocolate chips."

"I'll defiantly be there."

"That's great. I don't want anyone to think I don't have friends here."
