He constantly sent me sweet texts. We would talk on the phone for hours and would drive to and from Arizona to Sedona every two days just because we couldn’t bear to be apart for too long. He had sent so many flowers to my house that I was running out of counter space to keep all of it.

I had only dated Caleb for a month but I immediately knew that this was what dating should feel like. I was happy and felt secure knowing that my heart was in his hands. Everyone else before him faded in comparison like a distant foggy memory.

    POV: Victoria Chaos. Absolute Chaos. That was the only way to describe everything that was happening around me. “Archie! Get back here! You need to put your pants on.” My nephew ran past me in his underwear as his mom, my cousin tried to keep up with him waving around a pair of trousers in her hand. I embraced it though. It’s not every day that your mother gets married for the third time. Although this was her third wedding, she was remarrying her first husband so I didn’t know if that counted. My mother and Mr. Thomas Stallone, her husband-to-be, met when they were in college. They were both smitten with each other and they fell in love. Thomas came from a wealthy family which did not approve of his relationship with my mom so they decided to elope. They ran off and my mom got married in Vegas in a white ill-fitting wedding dress she had found at a thrift shop. They were happy for a while but quickly realized that they had been too impulsive and neither one of them was actu

    POV: Caleb The wedding goes on as planned. The ceremony was beautiful. Mom and Thomas shared an uncomfortably raunchy kiss at the end. Seeing one of your parents make out with someone never gets easier. After the ceremony, there was a brief photo session. I was roped into a few pictures but quickly excused myself and left the wedding party to it. Don't get me wrong, I had nothing against Melissa. I was actually glad that my dad met someone that he loved so much, he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her. I just hadn't been involved in any of the wedding planning so far and it didn't feel right to butt in all of a sudden. I decided to keep my distance and proceeded to the reception tent with the rest of the guests. Immediately I entered the tent, I felt as though I had been transported to a whole other world. The decorations in the tent made the whole thing look whimsical. The inside of the tent was brimming with fresh flowers and lush greenery. There was a dance floor set u

    Ten years ago POV: Victoria Every kid’s favorite day of the week has got to be Friday. It’s the beacon light at the end of the tunnel after a long week. I lived for Fridays. I dreamt of them, wanted to marry them, and have their children if possible. So the fact that I was dreading that particular Friday said a lot. I had to make a presentation on the British Colonization of the Americas in front of the entire class. To say I was nervous would have been an understatement. “Come on Tori, this is the third time I’m waking you up. You’re going to be late for school if you don’t hustle,” my mom shouted from the corridor. “That’s the goal,” I said to myself as I threw off my covers. My history class was the first lesson of the day so maybe if I got ready as slowly as was humanly possible, I’d miss the whole thing. I dismissed the idea completely. My mother would never let that happen. She would put the clothes on my body and physically drag me out of the house and to school if she

The rumour mill had moved on to Carl Stevens lying about his family owning a vacation home in Los Angeles. Even though I felt sorry for Carl, I was glad that the heat was off of me.That Friday had been rough. Everywhere I went people stared and pointed. Some were even bold enough to call me puke face. Of course I hated that they were being mean but what I hated even more was the fact that the spotlight was on me. It made me very uncomfortable but I got through the day. By the time the school day ended, I was in an unbelievably foul mood. I was mad at Mr Finkle for making me do the presentation in the first place. I was mad at my mother for making me go to school and for making me eat breakfast. When she came to pick me up, I sulked the whole way home and refused to talk to her. I know that wasn’t my most mature moment but it was justified.All, however, was forgiven an

Let me know when you’re available.ToriI pumped my fist up in the air. This was huge. I had absolutely no hope that she would text back let alone be open to meeting with me.

They were all waiting for me to shed light on the situation. I was still loss for words. Tori was actually blaming me for what happened to her store. I was in shock.“I don’t know. Tori never told me anything about Brianna threatening her. It’s the first I’ve heard of this,” I finally said.I was having a very hard time wrapping my head around the fact that Brianna could have done something like that. It wasn't like her at all, especially judging from the amount of damage that had been done to the store if my dad’s account of events was anything to go by.“Do you know where Brianna is right now?” my dad asked. “No, I haven’t seen or heard from her since we broke up so I have no way of knowing where she is.
