CHAPTER ONE
Hi this is my first ever fanfiction, please review and tell me what you think. Constructive criticism is fine, no flames please. Anyhow I won't ramble much longer except to say that I don't own anything but the plot and Alex… Not sure if I even own the plot, I don't know if it's been done before… anyway onto my story.
My name is Alexandra Duchamp.
But everyone in Castle Rock calls me Alex. My hair is a browny blonde colour and comes down to the middle of my back. I hang out with the three most boss guys in all of Castle Rock, and my brother.
My brother Teddy Duchamp was the craziest guy we hung out with. Once when we were younger Dad had taken Teddy's ear and held it against the stove, he almost burnt it off.
Vern was the pussy of the group; even I could beat him up, and win a spitting or running competition.
Then there was Gordie; lately he'd been a lot quieter. Four months ago his older brother Denis had died in a car accident, his parents still hadn't quiet come to accept that fact, and were ignoring him a lot more then usual.
Chris Chambers was the leader of our gang. He came from a bad family, everyone just knew he'd turn out bad, even Chris.
And then there was me, the only girl of the group, and the youngest too. Everyone was twelve going on thirteen including me, but Teddy and I were the youngest, I was born two minutes after Teddy, and he never let me forget it either.
I was the one everybody leaned on (literally), or they came to me for advice. None of the gang knew that I was Teddy's sister except Teddy and I of course.

"Hey Teddy! Hey Alex! You two going to come tree house today? Or have you two lover birds got other plans?" Chris yelled from across the street at us.
"Yeah we're coming!" I yelled back at him, I turned back to Teddy who now had his eyes glued to the cover of a new comic book. "You know Teddy," I sad punching him in the shoulder to get his attention, "I think maybe we should tell them you're my brother soon".
"Yeah, maybe," he muttered rubbing his arm where I had hit him.

Now when you first meet me, you often wonder if I am actually a girl… because apart from my facial features and my long hair, you wouldn't really be able to tell that I am indeed a girl. But I guess being brought up with seven brothers and no sisters, you kind of get used to being one of the guys. I wear Teddy's clothes most of the time, so they are always a bit baggy on me. Although I do own girly clothes and occasionally wear them, I feel more comfortable in jeans, runners and a shirt of Teddy's.
I live with guys, hang out with guys, act like a guy and I despise most of the girls at school, thank goodness next year I wont be with most of them because I'm going to the same school as Gordie, and all of those girls, well the majority of them are just plain… Dumb!
I know this chapter is short, but I forgot to save so I will update tomorrow if somebody reviews and tells me to. Please review, seeya till I write again, lol, that sounds lame.
