Author's Note: We've all been there, or we've all seen and heard it happen. Cyber bullying. It's something I am very passionate about, and something I try to prevent as much as possible. This is a short little story about what happened to one of my friends. Obviously for security reasons, I will not use any real names, but I hope you enjoy :)

I slammed my laptop shut, furious. I couldn't understand what was happening at all. I couldn't comprehend any of it. It was just a picture. A picture that I deleted after it got 4 likes. I posted it 2 years ago. Why was this coming back now?

"Happy 13th birthday Christina!" My dad shouted, my mom walking towards the dinner table with a cake, smiling, her eyes full of excitement.

"You go Chris!" Said one of my friends.

I was beaming, smiling so big I can't believe my face didn't break off. I was 13. This meant I'd get my own room, my own laptop, my own phone, it meant that I was a teen! This means that I was finally on my road to becoming an adult! I can... I can have more responsibilities, my parents will trust me more!

I moved closer towards where the cake was on the table, and I blew out each and every one of the 12 candles, making one gigantic wish.

"I wish for a happy teenage life" I whispered to myself, hoping for the best.
