CHAPTER ONE: MR. SNUFFLES
"Nana, tell us about Grandma Riley and Auntie Maya again" squealed little Lisa Marie. It was Christmas eve, snow was slowing falling silently behind the window. Jessie sighed and leaned back in her seat. "Once Upon A Time...
"La La La La La" Riley squeaked. It was sunny and the bay window was warm but lonely. "Mary had a bunny rabbit, who was as fuzzy as a cloud, she took her to show and tell and was proud. La La La La La La La". "That's not the lyrics" said a blonde girl. Riley looked at her alarmed. "Who are you"
"Maya"
"I am Riley"
"I know"
"How?"
"Your daddy always calls you Princess Riley"
"How Do you Know that"
"I come here A lot"
"Why haven't I seen you"
"Cus I am good at sneaking"
"Well I am better at painting"
"Really"
"Yes I am gonna be a artist when I grow up"
"Cool I am gonna be a waitress"
"Why"
"Cus Mommy is"
"Cool"
"Do you want to say Mr. Fuzzles"
"Who is he"
"My unicorn"
"Sure"
Riley stood up and grabbed her purple unicorn stuffy from her bed.
"Isn't he cute"
"Yes he is"
" You should bring your stuffies over so they can have a playdate"
"I dont have any"
"Really"
'Mommy can't get me them"
Riley looked at her new friend.
"Are we friends"
"Yes"
"Then hold on"
Riley got up and walked to her closet. The bottom shelf was full with stuff animals. She looked through them until she found a little pink bear. Quickly she scooped him up. She ran and sat next to Maya. She handed it to her.
"For Me?" Maya asked.
"Yes"
Maya hugged Riley.
"I am gonna call you Riles."
"I am gonna call you Peaches"
"Why"
"Cus they are my favorite fruits. And you are my favorite friend."
The door to Riley's room "Riley Smiley who are you talking to" Riley's Daddy walked in. He stopped when he saw Maya. "Who are you"
"This is Peaches, Daddy."
"Well Peaches, GET OUT OF MY HOUSE"
Maya started to cry.
"Daddy"
But Mr. Mattew's was already scooping Maya in his arms.
"Hi Honey. Why dont you come and have some gram crackers. Whats your Mommy's phone number"
As Maya told her daddy her phone number, Riley slipped to write in her diary.
Dear Diary,
I made a new friend today. Her name is Peaches. I gave her Mr. Snuffles. She has blonde hair and blue eyes. She has a pretty name. Maya. I wish my name was that pretty. My name isn't that pretty. Daddy scared her. Now she is having snack with us. Mommy is gonna like her. I wonder if she has a nice Mommy and Daddy. I think we will be Best friends forever. Like daddy and Uncle Shawn. I will be the rebel. I will get married to a prince and she will live in the castle with me. We will ride Unicorn's in the garden. I hope there is sunflowers. They are my favorites. Hope you have agood day. Bye Bye.
Love,
Riley.
