NOTE: *trumpet sounds* I'm baccckkkk! So I decided to add another chapter for all you amazing people reading "Beginnings". You guys are my inspiration and I'm so glad you all like the story. I didn't really know how to go on with it so I'm just going to start a couple of years later in high school.

Love it? Hate it? Tell me what you think.

Lyndsey Ambrosi chucked her bag down on the grass as she sat down in a small meadow. The long grass wove back and forth meeting the baby blue sky in soft hues of gold and blue. She looked down at her feet, clad in converse meeting legs clad in purple dyed jeans. Her red hair was in a ponytail and some strands fell into her face. She had another horrible day at school, and another day without Jim Kirk. It was junior year and Jim had dropped out mid-year to bar hop and meet girls. She barely ever saw him. Sure they talked sometimes but not as much as they used to. Not as much as the summer they met and every summer after that. High school just brought along so many other problems.

Junior year was the time her brothers wanted her to have picked out a college to apply to. She had many actually, and had been thinking about several occupations. She had decided ultimately on Starfleet. Of course everyone in her family had been Starfleet, including her brothers, but they hadn't expected that from her.

She sighed and pulled a piece of grass out. She decided that she missed Jim Kirk. Jim had long since forgotten about the meadow and now didn't even come there anymore. It was only her. Which when you're alone, it gives you time to think, which she did think about many things.

She grabbed her bag and pulled out a PADD. The entrance form for Starfleet Academy shimmered back at her, the fields of interest coming up. She smiled, marking the two fields that interested her, Command and Medical. She didn't want to be a CMO, that wasn't her ambition, but she figured she'd have to make it to that before what she really wanted. She wanted to be the captain of a medical frigate. That was her only dream as of now.

A/N: Well what do you think? It's kind of short but I tried. R/R please! No flames.
