I walked through the sand with Bradin. I spotted Eden walking ahead and I ran to catch up. "Eden, can I talk to you?" I sighed as Bradin took my hand on the opposite side of me. She shrugged, and I took the chance. "Listen, I'm really sorry for not telling you I was already invited to the party. I really wanted to be happy for you because it was your first high school party. Be glad you didn't stay--"

"I know...I heard," she shrugged and turned to me and Bradin. She stopped walking and so did we. "I'm really sorry...about you guys getting arressted. It must have sucked. I'm glad I decided not to stay. And it's in the past. I know how to forgive and forget." She smiled and shrugged. I smiled as well and hugged her. "So...do you want to hang out?" She asked as we all continued walking down the beach.

"Yeah!" I smiled and then looked at Bradin. "Oh...wait," I bit my bottom lip and looked down at the sand.

"What? Did you make plans without me?" she sighed, annoyed with us.

"Not...exactly," I sighed and shuffled my feet in the sand.

"I have to get home. My aunt is gonna be mad if I'm late," Bradin said and kissed my cheek. He then took off down in the sand. Eden turned back to me to finish.

"Well, I'm grounded for the rest of the year, I have community service for three weeks, I have to go to diversion, I have to take care of my neighbor's kids for the next month every day after school for no charge, I have to study at least 3 hours every night, I'm no longer allowed on the computer, I'm allowed out of the house for only school, baby-sitting, diversion, community service and family gatherings, and if my mom and, or dad thinks of anything else, I have to follow it," I said like I had it memorized. Eden busted out laughing.

"So I guess you'll be pretty busy for a while," Eden said as I walked up to my backdoor from the beach.

"Yep, looks like it," I smiled to myself as I did a little dance to the door.

"And...you're so happy, why?" She laughed with a frown. I smiled.

"Because...he chose me because I'm me," I smiled and looked at Eden. "And you know what? It's been a week since we got into this mess and all I can think about is what he told me. Even through diversion, community service and baby-sitting...he's all I can think about."

"And what did he tell you?" Eden frowned and rested her hand on her hip.

"Avery!" I heard my mom yell from inside. "Get your little fanny inside this house right this instant!" I smiled even when she yelled and turned back to Eden.

"He got to know me and so he chose me over Sara," I said and put my hand on the doorknob. "I'm no her...and that's all that matters."
