Hey this is a new story I'm just kinda trying out hope you like it! ^.^

Emily

Walking through a school hallway has become a skill that Emily is great at. She can move quickly and keep going when boys act like idiots and get into fights. This is how private school has always been for Emily. She walks to class and works hard to keep her grades up. An average fourteen year old girl. Well, more or less. She also has ADHD and is extremely dyslexic. She pretty much only has one friend who she can actually call her friend. Annie. Annie has helped Emily cope with her dyslexia. This is how she can keep her slightly-above-average grades. Emily used to live with her dad, but he sent her to this school for pretty much no good reason. He had said it was to protect her, whatever that means, and he put her on a bus and off she went. It, wasn't a huge deal because he didn't spend that much time with her anyway. After her mom left, he enveloped himself in the work of this big company and let Emily do her own thing.

"Hey Em!"Annie says as she meets her friend in the cafeteria one morning.

"Mm?" Emily says with her mouthful of bagel.

"So, what are you doing over break? Staying here? Going home?" Annie asks, obviously leaning toward the 'staying here' idea by the tone of her voice.

"Sorry An, but I'm going home," Emily says, "It's the one time of year that I actually get to spend with my dad."

"Oh, that's ok," Annie says, but you can still see her disappointment, " My parents are spending the holidays in Peru with my uncle Dave. I am staying here I guess, sigh" (she said 'sigh' not actually sighed)

"I'll text my dad and see if you can come home with me. After all, it is Christmas," Emily says reaching for her phone, but before she can grab it, Annie flings herself over the table and hugs her best friend saying "thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou…"

"Okay," Emily pushes her back, "you're welcome just let me text him…" Emily taps the screen as she texts her dad. Once she's done she puts her phone in her pocket and start telling Annie about Christmas at the Carson house.

Okay, before you ask, Emily's dyslexia is effected on her phone but she has learned to cope with it when texting. Also, yes her last name is Carson.

Thanks for reading! Bye!
