An average kid's description of the perfect Summer Vacation would be hanging out with friends, swimming, and maybe catching a movie or two at the local theater. All that fun stuff and more, right? Erin, of course with her luck, would not be a participant in any of this.
She was gonna be stuck at her aunt and uncle's house for the summer. The whole summer. And the worst part wasn't the fact that she barely knew these distant relatives. The worst part wasn't even that she couldn't bring her pet of three years, a St. Bernard that she's had since she was 10-years-old. No, the worst part was that she would have to go through the whole summer without her best and only friend, Cynthia.
Her and Cynthia had been friends since they first met in fourth grade. The year was 1968 and Cynthia had just moved to San Diego...
Erin was sitting in the back row of the classroom as always. She was so caught up in her doodling that she didn't notice the new kid until she came to the back and flopped harshly into the empty seat next to Erin. Erin's pencil falls to the ground as her head snapped up in surprise and her eyes followed the sound. The girl hunched over her desk, her long dark brown hair shields her face and the pencil rolls to her feet. She's obviously not happy about her move.
Erin goes down to get her pencil and sees the girl is wearing Keds.
"Nice shoes..." Erin says without thinking.
The girl pushes the hair out of her face. She then notices that Erin and her are wearing the same shoes.
She gives a small chuckle. "Your's too."
Okay so that was the official first chapter. I know it's pretty short I'm not that good of a writer. I don't mind flames, but please review.
