It was aug. 24th. I'd just woken up in my bed in my room in my place in fl. I heard someone watching tv in the living room. I wasn't sure what time it was but it was still dark out.

I walked out of my room and into the living room where a pretty brunette in black pajamas was watching tv. sHe turned when he heard me.

"oh sorry did I wake you?" she asked.

"um. No," I aid.

"ok. Um. You must be ashley."

I wondered how she kne this.

"I, looked you up online."
