Chapter 1: Surprises
I was sitting on my bed, and I was reading a magazine, while I was listening to my iPod. I was listening to Connect 3, Play My Music. That is how I felt about music. I wanted to go to Camp Rock so bad, but I knew my mom would never let me go, because of my disability. I wouldn't really call it that; I would call it a hindrance though. When I was only a year old, my mother saw something weird in my pictures, she saw this white circle in one of my eyes. She thought that it wasn't normal, so she took me to the doctor. It turns out I had a form of cancer called, retinoblastoma, a malignant form of cancer in my eye. They had to remove my left eye, but it is now replaced with a glass eye, and no one can tell I really only have one eye. I love to play the piano, and write songs of my own. I have been begging my mother to let me go to Camp Rock for years, and now I think she is getting ready to let me go, only because of my father's persistence.
She rushed into my room, and said that she had a surprise for me. I was wondering what it would be, when my dad came into my room as well.
"What is the surprise?" I asked.
"You are going to Camp Rock!" My mother exclaimed.
"What? Really?" I asked.
"Truly." My father said.
"OH my gosh!! Thanks so much!" I said while hugging them.
"You're going to call if you have any problems right?" My mother asked.
"Of course!" I replied.
"And you have your doctors appointment coming up soon, so you'll have to miss a day for that." My mother replied.
"That's fine, just as long as I get to go to Camp Rock!" I replied.
"You leave in two days." My father said.
They left so that I could begin packing, I needed to bring all the essentials.
My list:
Toothbrush
pajamas
clothes
lyrics
shoes
iPod
phone
laptop
ME!!
candy
I was so excited, it felt like two days would be forever. My parents were excited, but I think they were wary as well. My mom told me to be myself. I wasn't going to change myself just to fit in, but I also wasn't going to tell them about my problem. That is just what I needed, was for people to think that I was some kind of freak. People were mean, we had to move quite a few times, because I would finally trust someone with this, and then they would go and spread it around the entire community, and people would begin to make fun of me. I had really low self-esteem because of this, and I had a hard time letting people in. But soon that would end, and someone would break through her barrier, but would she finally find acceptance, or would she be the freak again?

Please, review and please let me know what you think. I was going to make this a Shane/OC, but then I decided not to, so I decided to do a Nate/OC! Hope you like it!
