"Hey Charlie I forgot some stuff, I am going to the store ok," I yelled through the house.

"Ok, see ya," he said and went back to what he was doing. I stepped out of the house the bright sun hitting me. The familiar sights and smells of Castle Rock came back. I walked down the street to the market place. I walked inside going to the back of the store. Two girls stood in the next isle talking.

"That Chris Chambers is so hot," a girl with long curly blonde hair, blue eyes who stood about 5'2 said.

"Yeah but he is a Chamber kid, but Gordie is hot." Another girl with brown long hair and blonde streaks in it said.

"But Georgia, he is going out with that girl Mel Cramer still," the girl said.

"O well how about Teddy, Emma," Georgia said. When I heard Teddy's name my heart started pounding fast.

"He still like that girl, Kat, I keep telling him he she won't come back," Emma said, the two girls started walking out of the store. I heard then start laughing then leave the store. I smiled to myself; I still had feelings for Teddy. The cashier started staring at me so I walked to a place where he couldn't see me. The door opened up and two boys came into the store. I noticed then right away, Ace and Eyeball. They started walking to the back to where the cigarettes were. I was caught in a dead end. I turned my back towards them hoping they wouldn't recognize me. I picked up a magazine to hide my face.

'Hey girl are you going to buy that," the casher asked. Ace and Eyeball looked at me then realized who I was.

"Well, well, well look what the dogs dragged in," Ace said. I pushed Ace and he fell into a table of boxes, sending it crashing to the floor. I took off running out the door. I ran into someone, but I couldn't stop I kept going….

ADDED SEPTEMBER 19TH

I ran down the street, remembering where everything was. I made my way to the woods where the tree house was. I wanted to see if it was still up. The tree house finally came into view and I heard voices, familiar voices. Vern, Teddy, Chris and Gordie where up there. I wanted to go up and see them all, but something was keeping me from going up. I turned to walk the other way to my old house. No one was living in my old house, boards where across the windows and doors. I pulled a few boards off and made my way into the house. Even thought the furniture was gone I could still remember where everything was.

* Chris Point of View *

It was the third week of school, and we where juniors now. I couldn't believe it. I sat with Gordie in homeroom. There was a knock at the door and the teacher, Mrs. Brown went to the door. The principal walked in and looked at us.

"This class has a new student from Ohio, she will be here for a few months," the principal said.

"Come in…" I looked at the door, waiting for the new girl. A girl stepped in with red curly long hair. She looked familiar but I couldn't figure out who she was.

"Tell everyone your name…" Mrs. Brown said.

"Hey that girl looks almost like…"

"My name is Katrina Johnson…"
