All Chapters of Here We Go: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“You look amazing, Liv! Just go! You can do it!” Paige encouraged me as we stood in a corner. The whole house was packed with people everywhere. Even in the pool at the back of the house.To be perfectly honest, this was more of a nightmare-ish hell for a claustrophobic person than a party… If I knew that high school parties were basically just loud music with drunk teens everywhere, I would have stayed at home with a big bowl of popcorn while watching some random movie. I could’ve drooled over guys who would never know that I exist!Wait… That’s kinda sad… But those guys are also too old fo

Okay this was more awkward than the time I went to my aunt’s wedding and ended up falling down with the chocolate fountain falling on top of me. I ruined a very expensive dress that day… But the worst thing was that chocolate was wasted… Poor chocolate! I cried for hours because so much chocolate was wasted… But this was more awkward as I sat next to Dan with Paige on the other side, giving me angry looks. I’m pretty sure that she would have thrown an axe at my head by now if the teacher wasn’t currently going on with the day’s lesson. And well, if she had an axe on her… After the whole fiasco at the party, I had run for the hills, pulling Dan with me so that he didn’t get the chance to tell people that I was lying… I managed to explain everything to Dan during the ride home and he promised to keep his mouth shut. But he did ask me to explain everything to Paige and to clear the mess up as soon as I could. He was afraid of Ryan kicking him out of the team somehow bu

“Liv!” I heard someone calling out as I skipped on my way to class. I turned around to find Dan rushing to me.Yes, I was skipping in the crowded hallway… Turns out, when you’re acting like yourself, being different from the rest, people just give way to your craziness. You just have to ignore the stares… Besides, I was in a really good mood because of that delicious burger I ate last night… And the ice cream after that… Food is life!“Danny!” I exclaimed. “Thanks for forgiving me!” He dryly said. Oh! He saw what I wrote over the loud art we did on his car!“You’re welcome!” I beamed up at him. “Are we cool now? For real?” Dan asked me. “Oh, we’re cooler than that ice-cream in Paige’s refrigerator!” I grinned. “Actually, that ice-cream melted because the refrigerator stopped working.” Paige interrupted as she emerged from the crowd. How did she know when to appear?She’s a magician!Or I’m friends with a real wizard… The second one makes more sense… “Now we have to get new

“Liv, I’m so-” The poor guy couldn’t even complete the apology before he had a red handprint on his cheek. That’s gonna hurt… “How dare you come here to talk to her after what you did?” Paige roared. Everyone was staring but no one even dared to whisper…  Or to take out their phones to record the whole mess… That’s how scary she was… “Paige, I-” Another incomplete sentence uttered by the boy who got slapped again. At least now both his cheeks looked identically red… That makes it a bit better, right? 

I saw a movement in the hall outside my room and sighed loudly. My actions had the desirable effect as my dad came back to stand at the doorway with a frown. Thank goodness it’s not mom! “What are you thinking about, chipmunk?” He asked as he leaned against the doorframe. I sighed dramatically again as I pouted and looked down at my criss-cross, pyjama clad legs. My sigh again had the desirable effect as he walked inside the room and took a seat on the bed near me with a concerned look. Never underestimate the telepathic power of a heavy sigh! “Talk to me, jelly bean.” He spoke in a soft voice. Damn! He knows that I ate all the jelly beans… “Daddy, what can someone do to become more likeable?” I asked him, not looking up at him. You see, if I look up, he will know exactly what I am talking about. My dad had that super power which made him a mind reader. But it only works with me, my brother and my mom… Weird, right? “Why do you ask? Did something happen at school?
