Chapter 10
Diana
"I'm the sleepy head? You're just standing there, staring at the wall!" But I knew what I said was incorrect. He was looking at me. "So can we eat?" I go on, trying to ignore the fact I was hiding from him, from myself. "Hello? Can we eat?" I repeat. Sam heard me that time and said, "You're hungry? Okay. Follow me," and walked out the door into the hallway. We walked through several hallways and through a few rooms. Finally we got to the kitchen. "What do you wanna eat?" Sam asked.
I was ravenous. My stomach roared liked a raging lion trapped in a cage. "Um, do you have any fruits? That's usually my breakfast…" I trailed off, thinking about my old home. "Here," Sam said, tossing me an apple. Then I started to eat.
Sam
Goodness gracious! She just devoured an apple in record time! God… I wish I could tell her what I feel. I can't get my mind off of her! I wish she knew how I feel. But I'm too much of a coward to say anything. I had already eaten, but she needed to eat more. But when I offered, she said no. "Okay then. Lets play in the snow!" I said. She ran for the door, but I stopped her. "Where are you going? You need to put on snow pants and boots! You can have mine. My dad just got some new ones for me, 'cause I outgrew the other one. But you can have it! It will probably fit too," he said. "Why do I need snow pants," she asked, puzzled. "Because you'll get cold!" I exclaimed.

Diana
I secretly created a bal of snow. My plan was falling perfectly. I pretended slip. "Whoah!" I cried, hiding the ball. "Diana?" Sam anxiously called. I whimpered. "Its okay," he said, appearing by my side. I grinned deviously. "Wha-" he began to say, before being smacked in the face with a snowball. Then I pushed him into a pile of snow. Then, I ran around him, pelting him with snowballs. Whenever he protested, I threw a snowball at his face. This kept him quiet. I rounded the snow around him. I turned to see my final piece.
I burst into laughter. I was laughing so hard, I was on the ground, clutching my sides. I made him into a snowman! Finally Sam asked, "What did you do to me?" and at the same time a familiar voice said, "What did you do to him?".
I spun and cried, "Jasmine!" I ran up to her and gave her a choking hug. "I missed you to. But I came to tell you – the wedding is in two months! I'm so excited!" She gushed. Honestly, she looked like a teen. "That's great! I've been having fun – like torturing Sam!" I said, giggling. "I need to take a picture, this is so halarious!" said another voice. Sam's Dad! "Diana, get into the picture!" I skipped to Sam's side, giving a pose of hugging him. Finally, Sam couldn't take it. He kicked with all his might, and suddenly the snowman had legs! He broke through all the snow then. Uh oh. "Ahhhh!" I screamed hopping out of his reach. He roared with annoyance. He chased me all over the yard until I stopped to throw a snowball at his face. He then gave up – and went inside.
I felt my face slip into a pout. He left me! I am having a hard time admitting it – but I am beginning to think he is my one and only love.
