Chapter One: Life is good

Rikki Chadwick smiled contently as she reflected on her life, while walking to the Café ready to start her shift.

Rikki's POV

Right now life was good. I had good friends, a great boyfriend, my dad and I had a nice relationship, I was doing well in school and I shared the most amazing secret with my best friends.

Okay, that might be sugar coating it just a bit, but I still had great friends, -however different to me they are-, a boyfriend who was partners with me in running the local café, 'Rikki's' (which he named after me), me and my fathers relationship was good… when we aren't fighting as we both are very stubborn, I was just passing in school and the secret is amazing, it's just amazingly hard to keep a secret too! But hey, I can't complain!

For me the day had just begun, I was able to squeeze in a sleep-in after finishing my homework yesterday, and now I was off to the café, which wasn't really too bad because I knew I was going to spend way to much time socializing with my friends Cleo, Bella, Lewis and Will, along with my boyfriend/ boss Zane.

I was crossing the road to a different footpath on the side of a quiet road, which was nearing the café, when I thought about how the 'look both ways' rule was one of the only rules that I listened to my parents about, and obeyed. I was the bratty, disobedient little girl, who would pull heads off her Barbie's and frequently throw tantrums. I think the reason I obeyed the 'look both ways' rule is because cars scare me, always have and likely always will. Nowadays, I worry about them because of how much impact car accidents have. I mean who knew that plastic and metal could be so damaging.

When I was little (although I would never admit it now) I used to think that cars had eyes, -now I know they are just headlights- but the thought of them always used to scare me. My nightmares were never about spiders, snakes or the dark but always cars. Every single time.

I admit, cars truly are handy, but they are also very, very dangerous. I suspect when I am a bit older I will probably go for my license, but right now I just walk. I mean everywhere I go is in walking (or swimming) distance so why bother exposing myself to that extra danger?

Just as I was walking round a sharp corner, only a few streets away from the café (I was running a bit late but who cares? I mean I am part-manager, that's gotta have a few advantages!), when I heard around the corner, a loud car, with music playing loudly, which sounded like a hoon, and sounded like it was going really fast. I moved further away from the road on the footpath as I knew it was a tight corner and its better to be safe, than sorry. As the car neared I heard the cars tyres screeching around the corner. I turned around because I was planning to yell "IDIOT" to the driver that was going at a guess, about double the speed limit, but I couldn't move in the split second that I saw the cars direction before I felt pain and saw black, and lots of it.

Pretty please review! :) (Fingers crossed), No but seriously I am dying to know what you guys think about my stories! You can make suggestions & help me improve my writing/stories... just be nice about it! Have a good day!
