May 8th, 1960

It had been a year.
We had left town when we were 15, and now were 16.
It was'nt long before we got there, and it was'nt long before I turned into a regular ol hippie chick.
We all made it to Acrata, and it was great.
I had a job in the city, and we all lived up in the mountains.
But for those of us who had jobs, we went down during the day to work, then came back and partied.
Drank.
Smoked.
Ya know, regular teenage stuff.

My dark brown hair was now longer than it was before, to the middle of my back, but I still had my green eyes, but they were usually hidden behind sunglasses during the day and red by night.
I always wore pants and some kind of off the shoulder t shirt, and to tie it all all together, you'd never see me without a bandana or scarf tied around my head.
Tonight, we had a party in the city, with a group of friends we had down in the city, and just for the hell of it, we were having a bonfire.
And it was awesome!
It did'nt matter where you turned the sound of Bob Marley and Led Zeppelin followed, along with the smell of weed and the bonfire.

I was leaning on the bumper of our van, watching everyone dance around, laughing and having a great time, then I saw Sage and Ocean dancing by the fire and I laughed, shaking my head.
Their crazy.
And their gunna fall in one of these cause their drunk off their ass.
I shook my head once more, taking a sip of my beer.
"Well!Look who it is Rain!!", Bobby said excitedly from beside me, and I turned to see Bobby walked Rain in front of her and I gasped excitedly.
"Hi my little Angel!!", I said and picked her up, giving her a bunch of kisses on her cheek.
I know what your thinking, and no she's not mine.
Bobby and Jackson had a kid 3 months after we got here, and now shes a year old today.
That's why were having this party.

"Hey Scar!",Shea called from across the way, waving me over very drunkenly from the phone booth.
"Here, I'm gunna be right back", I said as I handed Bobby Rain, then started walking over to Shea.
"Some guy named uh.... Ace is assssskin for yaaaa?",she slurred.
""Ace"?", I repeated and gave her a weird look, but she just shrugged and handed me the phone.
I took it and held it up to my ear, then sighed.
"This is Scarlett, I understand your name's Ace?", I said, rolling my eyes then took a swig of my beer.
"Scar?...It's me",they said from the other side of the phone and I furrowed my eyes together."It's John."
"John?", I said still confused, and then it hit me like a ton of fuckin bricks.
"It's Johnny...it's your brother...it's me Scar",he said and I nearly dropped the phone.
