About the long wait...........
SO SORRY! I keep getting writer's block, and then keep procrastinating typing up the chapters. Plus I have school, and I have to go to a gym 3 times a week with mah madre. Fun. (Note the sarcasm there.) Anyways, I'm so so so sorry that I my updates take really long, I;ll try to change that, but I know for certain I can't do it everyday. Sorry, but I have a life, here. (Not to say that author's who update everyday don't have a life, they just write faster than me. :P)
Um, yeah, here's the story now.
:D
Shawna & I used to be best friends. Although she was a little older than me, we just totally clicked. We understood each other completely. We liked all of the same music, movies, books, and our personalities were very similar too.
I had good fiends my age, but Shawna was always my best friend. We had so many good memories, and she was always there for me. Whenever I had big fights with my friends, or crushes gone wrong, or was embarassed at school, she would sit with me and let me cry or talk it out. She was the big sister I always wanted. So, as you can tell, I trusted her completely and loved her to death.
************
Shawna had a brother and a sister. They were both younger than her. Angel, who was six, was her younger sister. And she was such a cherub (A/N: my favorite word ever :D). Angel was a little small for her age, but not tiny. She had golden ringlets that felt like silk, and was fair skinned. She had beautiful green eyes that had a knowing look to them, like she could tell what you were thinking. Overall, she was a sweet, friendly little kid, and she had me, (and most people) wrapped around her little finger.
Shawna's brother was the opposite of Angel in looks. He had hair as black as a raven's, and dark brown eyes. He was tall and skinny for his age, but definitely not wiry. His black hair was down to his shoulders, and his bangs were well over his eyes, always getting in the way of them. He didn't talk much, and always had an unreadable expression on his face. When he was little had an obsession with vampires, but he was over that now. His name was Nicholas. But most people called him Fang.
