Hello, everyone.
This is my first fic. Don't be too harsh with your reviews!
CHAPTER ONE
" You're going to regret this decision"
"Katrina, I told you, you can't have a boyfriend. You're just 17 years old." Mom said.
" But that's not bad! At Monday I'll turn 18. So I can have one!" I protested.
" Well, I suppose you can have one. Hey, what about Brad?" Mom said grinning. "He was hoping if you turn 18 and picks a boyfriend you'll choose him and ….."
" No way! I don't like him!" I interrupted.
Maria Katrina Shodden – that's me! -- wants a boyfriend whom I would love.
I have a long straight red hair down to my waist, a pair of green eyes and red lips.
Brad is my suitor. He always gives me flowers everyday. But I don't like him. Even if he's kind to me I don't like him.
He was popular to girls. Except for me. He has brown hair, a blue pair of eyes and perfect white teeth. Sure enough, he's rich.
I don't have any feelings to him, you know. I'll even have a crush on myself than with him!
" Honey, you shouldn't say that. He is kind to you. I think he would be really sad if you'll break his heart." Mom said.
" But what about MY feelings! Have anyone think about MY feelings?" I cried, in an angry voice. Mom frowned, staring at me. She seems to be hurt from what I said. " Sorry.
I think I just want some else. Some one else I really love." I said trying to be calm.
" Well, it's your decision Katrina. But I know, you'll regret this decision." Mom warned.
" No I won't. I'll find my darling, that I would love." I said happily.
But I was wrong. Because I was about to face my greatest nightmare.
" Come on! Let's swim in the sea!" Johnny, my 12 year- old brother called.
" Sure!" I rushed towards him.
I landed in the water as I tripped.
Johnny and I laugh.
" Kids, we'll be in the cottage 45 if you need us." Dad reminded.
" This water is so cool!" I cried happily.
" This sure is." A boy's voice said.
" Huh? Who..?" I said looking for the boy who spoke.
" Silly. I'm here, at your back." The boy's voice said.
I turned to see who was the boy. He was handsome!
He has pair of blue eyes, dark yellow hair and a friendly smile. He wore blue blouse and blue boxer's short.
" Excuse me?" I asked.
" Hi, my name's Erick. Erick Beamer. Nice to meet you." He said smiling.
" Oh, my name's Maria Katrina Shodden. Nice to meet you Erick." I said, standing up from the water.
" So, how old are you?" he asked.
" 17 years old. At Monday I'll turn into 18." I explained.
" Oh, so you have a birthday party?" he asked again.
" Yeah. Hey, Erick, would you like to come at my party?" I invited.
" I can?" he asked nervously.
I nodded.
" Maybe I can. If it is morning." He frowned.
" Yes, it is morning. At around eleven o'clock." I said. "My address is….."
" I already know your address." He interrupted.
" Oh. But how?" I asked nodding nervously.
" Simple. I've been watching you Katrina." He said in a whisper.
" What was that you said?" I asked. I didn't hear him correctly.
Evil grin formed his lips.
" Just forget about it Katrina. Don't worry. I'll come over at Monday at your house. I wouldn't miss your birthday party." He said, grinning.
" Great! Be sure you'll come!" I cried happily.
" Why wouldn't come to your party? Oh I got to go. It's getting pretty late now." Erick said looking at the sunset.
" No. It's still early. It's just 4:00." I said.
" Noo! I can't. Ummm...I still have to… go on a meeting. Don't worry, I'll come over at your birthday party. See you!" He rushed towards a cottage, waving goodbye.
What do he mean by I've been watching you Katrina. I thought.
Is it a joke?
And why he grin like that?
Evil grin.
Evil grin that matches evil plans.
But what am I thinking?
He was perfect!
He can be my boyfriend, if he loves me.
I would be the happiest girl in the whole world!
But I was definitely wrong……
Author's Note:
Yeah, having boyfriend at an early age is a not-so-pleasant concept. But hey, we're growing up, right?
