*****

It all happened eight years ago. It was my eighth birthday and I spent the whole day with my best friend Luke and his parents at the county fair. It was a tradition that for my birthday we would go to the Valentine's County Fair. We had this tradition practically since I was born. I noticed Luke had a sad look on his face the whole day. Finally I got sick of it and asked him what was wrong.

"Alice, we're moving."

I could feel the salty tears running down my cheeks. I hoped he was just kidding for my birthday. Unfortunely he wasn't joking.

"You can't move! You can't do that to me!" I screamed. I knew I was being childish but then again I was a child and my best friend was moving away.

"Alice..." He said my name with a heart-broken tone.

"I like you!" I blutered out and then blushed but I was happy I finally told him I liked him. 

"I like you." He said more shyly.

"Then don't leave. Stay with me forever." I begged him

"I really want to but I can't. I promise I'll be back someday."

"So you're just gonna go? move like millions of miles aways!"

Instead of answering my question he fished something out of his pocket, he got out a beautiful charm bracelets. It was sort of big, one that would be fit my mommmy.

"I didn't know what to give you as a present. It's a bracelet with little objects of things that you like."

He held up the bracelet it was white gold. It had a beautiful pink ribbon, another one that was orange, a little kitty, a paint brush. And finally half a heart with the letter "A" on it and two weird looking lines.

"Aww so pretty! but it's really big."

"Yeah I though we might be big kids when I come back."

He carefully put the bracelet on my hand. I hugged him and he hugged me back.

I felt the tears sliding the down my cheeks, I'm 16 for crying out loud! is been eight years now. I've rejected some guys who looked nice but were no Luke.  I've been saving myself for him all these years but did he ever write or call? No! I felt like chuking the stupid thing out the window when Gwen came into my room. I quickly hid the bracelet in the pocket of my blazer.

"Don't you know how to knock?" I asked with an acid voice.

"Meow! Hey don't steal my job, I'm the one who's suppose to be the bitchy sister."

I just gave an Icy glare. "What do you want?"

"Nothing much. Little sister you're lucky your birthday is today if not I would've gone all b***h on your a*s already."

"Well if you're just here to waste my time please leave. You know where the door is."

"You really should move on. I don't think he's gonna come back, you gotta enjoy yourself, sis. How about we go to the fair and check some hotties out?"

"No thanks. No that is any of your business but I have plans."

"Like what?" She looked like she didn't believe me.

"I have a date."

"No freaking way! what's his name?! who is he? why didn't you tell me?!" She demanded.

"Uh.."

"No wonder you look better than usual, when is he coming?"

I looked at the clock by me bed it said 6:57.

"Crap! he's coming soon!"

"Like how soon?"

"Like in three minutes soon."

"Oh, I want to meet him!"

"Yeah when hell freezes over."

she laughed and said"Fine. Have a fun time sis, and remeber to move on. This could be the start of something new."

My only reply was a nod. I dashed out of my room and went downstairs. I saw my mom and I told her I had a date. Suprisingly she didn't question me further. I suppose is a birthday present from her. I got out of the door and saw Luke standing outside from his Ford Mustang. A..Mustang..I shook my head.

"Hey." I greeted

"Hi." He replied with a sexy grin.

He  looked...well..hot! He was wearing a short-sleeved t-shirt that embraced his muscles perfectly. He was dressed in a simple manner but that made it even hotter. I fought the urge of putting my hands on his abs.
