A/N 1: Ok. So I have decided that I am going to start a little 'game' I kind of did it in the last chapter, but no one seemed to want to play. Lol anyway I am going to add a quote at the beginning of each chapter. It can be from a movie, a book, a song or just a quote in general. (oh and the one from the last chapter was from Fifty Shades of Grey) The first person to guess what it's from or who said it will get a 'walk in' in the story. I will send a PM to whoever it is let you know. xD I think it sounds like a fun game, what do you think?
Oh and no cheating, no using google to help either. xD
Every day
It's as if I play a part
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart

Dear Penn;
So it seems that you are my new pen pal, but we cannot know who we are. I guess we will see how this goes. Hmmmmm, well I am lost for what to say. So I'm going to ask questions. Ones that are aloud of course. Lets see,
How old are you?
Are you a guy or a girl?
Do you have any siblings?
Do you have any nicknames? (Ones that no one would ever expect? Mine is Kit because my favorite candy is Kit-Kats)
What kind of music do you like?
What kind of movies?
Ummmm, and that's all that I can think of right now. So I am going to say goodbye now and wait for your letter. Bye!
PS: is it weird that I am really excited about this pen-pal thing?
I sat at my desk reading the letter that I had been given. It was the day after we had gotten the pen-pal assignment and here I was with a letter already. Who knew that there were people in this part of the world that still used pen and paper to write? Shaking my head, I laughed to myself and reached in my messenger bag and pulled out not only my pad of paper and a pen, but a hair tie to hold my hair back.
After pulling my shoulder length hair back I put in my ear buds and turned on my iPod to the sound of Letter To Me by Brad Paisley.
Dear Kit:
Yes, it seems that we are to be writing partners this year, and I too am excited about it. A chance to make new friends without anyone judging? I say that is a good thing all around. There are many things I would like to say, but first, let me answer your questions. And I expect you to answer them in return.
I just turned 18 last month
I am a 'guy' as you say
I have 3 sisters, 2 older and one younger.
I do not think I have nick names that are unknown. The only one I have would give away who I am, and that is not aloud. : /
As corny as this sounds, I love country music and music from the 80s.
And I love western movies (and books) something about people doing anything they have to for justice just appeals to me.
now new friend, let me ask you something. There is….or was a show on MTV called 'if you really knew me' I don't know if you saw it but it was good. My sister made me watch it. I feel that if this is going to work, that we need to get to know each other. So Kit, if I really knew you, what would I know?
If you really knew ME, you would know that I don't have many friends, not real ones anyway. See I am too busy working to have time to do anything. I am trying to do everything I can to help my family since my father took off when I was 13. If you really knew me you would know that the reason I am looking forward to this year is that I get a chance to talk to someone about things that I can't talk to anyone else in the world about and not have them look at me with pity. There is nothing I hate more than to the be the object of someone's pity.
Sincerely,
Penn
Leaning away from my desk I let out a deep breath and read the letter over at least 3 times. Did I really want to send this letter? It would be opening myself up so much, to someone I didn't even know, and who was to say that he/she wouldn't show it too all of their friends and my secret would get out. Who would know though? You are Penn to her; she doesn't know that you are you. That's the point of this pen pal thing. I thought to myself, before taking another deep breath and folding the letter and putting it in the envelope that set on my desk while I was writing.
On the front of the Envelope I sprawled a large 13-A on it and stood up and walked to the teachers desk dropping it into the basket "can I go to the Library?" I ask, wanting to get out of the class, feeling suffocated.
"Yes of course Dimitri, is everything alright?" Mrs. Petrov asks, looking a little alarmed. She was by far the nicest teacher here and this was my favorite class; she knew I wouldn't leave it without a reason.
"Yes, everything is fine Mrs. P, just wanted to check out a book." I told her with a charming smile before walking out the door. And ran into someone.
Without even thinking, I reached out and grabbed who I had bumped before they fell to the floor and hurt themselves. "You again? Will you never learn to look where you're going? Really?" the girl before me hissed before pulling herself away and walking down the hall to whatever room she was going to.
Shaking my head I turned and started walking the other way, to the library. "This is going to be a long year" I muttered as I walked into my sanctuary.
A/N 2: Ok so I know this is shorter than before, but it is like 5 am. Lol I was woken up from a really REALLY good dream about hot vampires making me an ice cream Sunday. xD anyway tell me what you think of this chapter and what you think I should add in ones coming up. I am thinking that I should do a chapter with letters between Lissa and Christian (oh come on, like you didn't know they were going to be pen-pals haha I love me some Lissa/Christian) anyway until next time
READ AND REVIEW!
