Willowridge Prep

Chapter One

I put some gel on my fingers, and ran them through my hair.

"Getting your Grease look on?"

I smiled when I saw Emerald staring at me through the reflection in the mirror.

She had her honey blonde hair pulled up in a high pony-tail, and her green eyes were sparkling with amusement.

My own eyes were green, but they were more sea colour, not the vibrant green that hers were.

"You know it."

I turned around and wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her close to me, as I placed a kiss on her lips.

Her face took on a pink twinge, and she pulled away.

RING RING RING!

Gasping, I shot up in bed, and clutched my chest. Even though I was only seventeen, I felt like I was on the verge of a heart attack.

What was with that dream?

I shook my head, and rolled off the top bunk, falling onto the carpeted floor below. In the bottom bunk, my roommate, Tommy, was still snoring away.

"Yo Anchor!"

A loud bang sounded, and Camille came crashing through the door.

At 6'4" Camille was one of the biggest kids at Willowridge Prep, and the biggest girls that I have ever seen in my life.

However, despite her large size and gruff voice, Camille was one of the nicest people I've ever met, which was probably why she was my best friend.

"Hey Cammie, you don't have to break down the door."

I nodded my head at Tommy's bed, where he lay, still snoring.

"Sorry, but I have the most exciting news!"

The beads in Camille's braids clacked together when she jumped in excitement.

I put my finger to my lips, and nodded at Tommy again.

"Oops, sorry."

She blushed and sat down on the desk chair.

"So, what's this exciting news?"

I sat on the floor in front of her.

"Well, you see, Jade asked me to the dance!"

Her squeal nearly made my ear drums rupture, but I didn't bother telling her to be quiet, I knew it was pointless.

Not to mention, I felt pretty excited about this myself.

Jade was Emerald's twin brother.

If Jade and Camille started dating, then maybe, just maybe, they would eventually want to do double dates with Emerald and I.

Man, I hoped so.

"Anyway, want to go shopping at the mall this weekend to help me pick out an outfit?"

"Sure."

I felt a bit reluctant saying that though, because the last time we went shopping for clothes, Camille got her bowels in an uproar, because none of the clothes were made for taller women.

The whole thing ended in picket signs, and me getting tased. I never wanted to go through THAT experience again.

"Anchor! Yoo hoo!"

I blinked and saw Camille waving her hand in front of my face, she had a concerned expression on her face. She then started chuckling.

"Don't worry! I won't start a protest again, besides, they put more accomodating clothes for taller women there anyway."
