Prologue
I was friends with them for five years.
We were like sisters. People called us The Pretty Committee, a silly
name.
There were five of us, Massie Block, the prettiest girl I have
ever met, my sister, my best friend; Alicia Rivera, we were never really
that great of friends, she was too busy sucking up to Massie to notice
my feeble attempts at a friendship; Kristen Gregory, the only one who
attempted to be my friend when I first moved to Westchester; Dylan
Marvil, the funny one, she was the only one who appreciated my silly
humor; and finally, me. Claire Stacey Lyons. When I first moved here,
into Massie's guesthouse, you could say I was a loner.
The four of them hated me. I didn't like them either.
After a while, I met Layne Abeley. With her colorful wardrobe and her down-to-earth
personality, we became friends instantly.
The Pretty Committee later saw my true potential and we became friends,
we started an unbreakable bond that lasted through everything and ended
at the beginning of senior year. That was the beginning of a whole new
era.
