Nina

Made a wrong turn

Once or twice

Dug my way out

Blood and Fire

Bad decisions

Welcome to my

Silly life…

My phone played Perfect by P!nk, awaking me to a new day. Amber turned in her bed and groaned, "I hate your alarm, Nina."

I laughed and threw a pillow at her head. I jumped up and stretched. Today was Friday, last day of school until the weekend! I threw my head back and laughed, causing a pillow to be thrown at me from Amber. I giggled and pulled out my uniform from my closet. I tugged on my grey skirt and button-down shirt. I pulled on my grey sweater and fixed my collar. I slipped on my socks and left shoe while I hopped around looking for the other one. I found it and brushed my hair. I skipped into the bathroom and washed my face. When I got back to my room I found Amber sitting on her bed, fully dressed.

"Wow! Amber, that was fast!" I giggled. I pulled her arm and dragged her downstairs. Trudy was in the kitchen, plating breakfast. I left Amber in her seat and went to help Trudy.

"Oh, Nina, sweetie, there was a package for you. I left it in the common room."

I nodded and helped Trudy serve plates on my way to the package.

By the time I had my package and made it back to the dining table, everyone was seated. I sat down next to Fabian and smiled. He smiled back. That one think made me even giddier. I set the package down on the table. It was about the size of a cereal box and two times as thick.

"What's that, Nina?" Jerome as he chewed his pancake.

"I don't know… But it's from America." I replied

"Well, open it!" Amber tapped on the cardboard exterior.

I peeled a piece of tape of one end and nodded to Fabian to help me. We each lifted the top and peered inside. Inside was a beautiful, wooden box. I carefully lifted it out and set it down. Fabian placed the cardboard box on the floor. The box was a jewelry box, but it was a little bigger than your usual one.

I opened that box and peered inside. Inside was a letter written on a sea-foam green stick note. I immediately knew who it was from. Maddison Lively, always wrote on sticky notes. I peeled the note from a small diamond and sapphire ring. I pulled it out and gasped. It was amazing! I slid it on my left middle finger and held it up for everyone to see.

They gasped and awed and I read the letter.

Dear Nina,

Happy early, on time, or be-lated birthday! I hope you are having a good time in good ol' England! We miss you! Especially your Gran! Tory and I went out and bought that for you. Hope you like it! Tory, Gran, Kathryn, Izzy, Ellie and I all miss you! Hope you made amazing friends, and maybe your first BF? LOLZ! You might've though. You've always had boys falling for you back here. Never cared though. Maybe England changed that.

Well, we gotta go. Don't forget us! Call when you get this!

Love ya,

Maddison,

Tory,

Kathryn,

Izzy,

Eliie,

And,

Gran.

I read it aloud and blushed at the mention of a BF. My thoughts immediately went to Fabian.

"Aww. So sweet Nina! You better go call them before school starts, sweetie." Trudy called from the kitchen. I smiled.

"I guess so." I got up and grabbed my phone form the couch. I dialed Maddie's number and danced around, admiring my ring. I grabbed the jewelry box and letter and skipped to my room. Still waiting for Maddie to pick up. When she did, I wasn't expecting…that.

Cliffie! He-HE. Might upload 2morro. What does Nina get? Hmmm...you'll have to wait! *Evil laugh and thunder*
