To the person who said this is exactly like yours:

IT CAN'T BE!!!!! I ONLY READ THE FIRST CHAPTER OF YOUR STORY! To be honest it struck as a bit boring! So stop badgering me, cuz I'm not stopping this story whether you like it or not!!! I've gotten a LOT of positive support on this story so leave me alone!!!! I'm sorry, but that's how I truly feel.

Now more story:

So here I was, stuck in the back of a smelly, moldy, bumpy old stagecoach with little Miss Hyper herself. Honestly, she sure is hyper for a kid who's never heard of soda.

When I say my life is like a bunch of scenes from America's Funniest Home videos, I mean it. Just take away all the smashing into stuff and pants falling off and you got yourself my life. And this particular scene would of won the $10,000 prize. Here's what happened:

We FINALLY arrived at the guy's ranch - why no one even considered inventing decent transportation before cars is beyond me - and were escorted off of the stagecoach. But honestly, we're girls not china dolls. Anyways, my little sister clung to me as if I'd run away like a puppy - I'm kind of missing the brothers who don't give a damn about me - so I tried to look as sophisticated as possible with a little girl attached to me while we headed towards a handsome man who reminded me of someone . . . I just couldn't put my finger on who he looked like. . . until we met his family. A husband, a wife, four daughters, and a son. Even though I'd never met these people, I knew a member of their family. A very handsome member, a very sweet member, a very DEAD member.

Of course Jesse was dead in MY time, but we weren't in my time - thanks to those no good little brats - we were in HIS time. So he was alive . . .wait Jesse was ALIVE. It finally sunk in that Jesse was alive, alive and healthy. Everybody could see him, everybody could talk to him, and everybody knew he was there. Outside all I could do was stare, but on the inside:

OHMIGOD!!!! OH MY GOD!!!! Jesse is alive! HE is ALIVE!!!! A-L-I-V-E! ALIVE! With working lungs and flowing blood veins!!!!! THIS IS SO AWESOME!!!!!

It was awesome and I was bursting with joy inside . . . until Maria Diego walked up next to Jesse and took his arm. My happiness died a painfully rapid death.

The man who looked familiar turned out to Jesse's dad, he was really cool. A lot better than my dad I'll tell ya. And his mom was nice and caring, kind of like my mom. She asked me and Julianna (my sister, I found out her name) if we would like anything to eat. We both declined having had a big breakfast, and then I looked at his sisters. Their names were (A/n: Making this up and in order from youngest to oldest and I don't know their ages either.) Lupe, Marcella, Amanda, Josephine. All of them seemed to take to me well; probably having another girl around is a big thing, but Jesse. All he did was greet me with a polite good afternoon and a sexy smile (damn his good looks) and turn back to listening to his father's and my father's way boring conversation on horses. Horses? Who talks about horses? Well, duh. Guys from 1850 of course, I mean there aren't any cars so next best thing is horses. I feel sorry for guys in 1850, I really do.

And Maria, well Maria seemed to just hate me. It was like she knew someday she'd try to kill me and Jesse (twice I might add) but get her ass kicked by me. Weird how those things work out, huh? Anyways I tried to be as civil as possible, resisting strangling her skinny neck, and smiled sweetly and said," It's very nice to meet you Mr. and Mrs. DeSilva. And to meet your children too."

That seemed to work. Jesse's father looked surprised at me being so nice. His mother beamed at me, and something flickered across Jesse's face but it was so fast I couldn't recognize what I was.

"It's so nice to have such a sweet and polite young lady visiting us. Why don't you come in, and you too Julianna. I'll fix up some tea," said Mrs. DeSilva

I despise tea but I reluctantly followed. And I did catch a glimpse of Jesse's face. It was calm and showed no signs of even knowing me. But the thing is, Jesse HAD to recognize me! He was transported back with me wasn't he? I mean, he was there when those demon children zapped me into 1850. I tried to catch his eye and see if he did know me, but he averted my gaze. He began talking to Maria and turned his back to me in the process. You know me, I got mad. If he didn't know me, then I didn't know him. End of story.

I drank the tea. I didn't want to but I did. It didn't become my favorite beverage in the world but I would drink it in certain circumstances. My sister downed it like it was Dr. Pepper or something though. If I ever got transported back home, I'd try to smuggle the girl with me. She needs to be shown real life, not this stupid 1850 in which she is clearly bored with. I think the little squirt is starting to grow on me.

Anyways much to my displeasure my father had to mention that he and my mother were going out of town tomorrow and they were still looking for someone for us to stay with - us kids I mean. And like I expected Jesse's mom jumped at the opportunity to have me with her for a week.

"Oh Alfonso! We would be delighted to have the girls stay at our ranch for the week! Isn't that right girls," she asked her daughters including Maria. All the girls look delighted, with exception of Maria, and said in sync (excuse the pun)," Yes!"

Of course Maria uttered a no under her breath that only I, and clearly Jesse too, heard. He had a strange expression on his face. Like he despised Maria yet was trying to pretend to love her. I passed it off as optimism and continued to listen to the rambling of my sister about what the boys at her schoolhouse had done to all the girls.

"And then," babbled Julianna," they started calling us stupid little girls and told us that we couldn't do anything. That boys will always be in charge of the girls."

What were they teaching boys back in the 1800's? I couldn't help but tell her," Boys will not always be in control. Girls can do anything boys can do."

Julianna looked at me confused and asked," They can?"

And I said with a bit of incredulity," Of course they can! What are you really good at?"

She took a minute to think about it and finally answered," Running. I'm really good at running. I've raced all the girls in my class and none of them can beat me."

I smiled and said," then start beating the boys. Challenge them to races. I'm telling you, they won't say no. And when you beat them say,' Girls can do anything boys can do'."

Julianna looked ecstatic at the very I idea of it.

"Okay Suzie! I'll do that!"

I smiled and returned to the other, more boring, conversation.

I hope you guys like it. I worked really hard on it. And I'm going away for a wekk so you'll have to wait that long for sure. And I'll be starting school very soon so not as much will be coming in once that starts. Later!
