(This is my first AWTR story so please review and tell me if I should go on or quit while I'm ahead)

~~~~~ The first day oh senor year of high school ~~~~~~~~

Jamie is getting ready for school, she starts thinking " will I fit in? will people like me?" Her mind is racing back and forth. She just finished chemo now she's on remission, Jamie walks to school on her way there she sees all the kids talking and goofing around before class. All she could do is smile and think

" God I'm happy to be alive." On her way to class she bumps in to someone.

" Hey watch were your going." The boy said

"Oh I'm sorry.' Jamie said in a soft friendly voice

The boy saw that she was really sorry so he helped her pick up her books.

" I'm Landon Carter" the boy said as he handed Jamie her books

" Thanks, Jamie Sullivan." Jamie says as they shock hands

" Well I've got to go before I'm late for class. Maybe I'll see you around." Landon said as he walked away

All Jamie could do is nod. She was speech less, all she could do is think about how weird he made her feel in such little time. The bell rang, Jamie went to class .

The whole day they saw each other but didn't speak. Now it's the end of the day Jamie is walking home

when someone grabbed her arm.

" Hey"

" Oh hi Landon." Jamie said happy to see him

" You walk this way to?" Landon asked

" Um yeah, I live three streets up." Jamie said

" I guess that makes us neighbors ." Landon said as they walked side bye side .

It turns out they live two houses from each other. Everyday for the last week they walked home together.

They talked about every thing under the sun, Jamie and Landon became best friends. Now they're walking home.

" So what do think about the dance?" Landon asked

" I don't really think about it." Jamie said

" Are you going?" He asked

" No." Jamie said

"Why not?"

"Because, I don't like the idea of getting all dressed up." Jamie said

" I think you would look beautiful." Landon said as he looked at Jamie

"What about you? Are you going?" Jamie asked as she turned away from Landon's eyes

" No, I haven't asked anyone yet." Landon admitted

" Oh" Jamie said

" I have an idea, why don't we go together. So that we can both experience the dance with out the pressure of dates. So what do you say? Will you go to the dance with me?"

( please review and I promise the next couple of chapters will be very interesting)
