Chapter 1 Promise's

Alicia is telling her best friend who her crush is.

"Carmen?" I looked over at my best friend with thoughtful eyes, I knew I could trust her with anything and that she wouldn't tell my parents or my older sister the secret I hid at that moment. I twiddled my thumbs nervously. Mathew Davis, that's my crush's name, and I have liked him for a while now. My parents don't want me with anyone that is not a christian and I don't know for sure if he is or not. It's stupid really, I mean, a teenager has to make mistakes sometimes right? Plus Mathew is sweet and I think he likes me. 

Carmen looked back at me, her green-blue eyes blinking "Yes?" She asked.

"Can you keep a secret?" I asked close to a whisper so that my parents only a little ways from us couldn't hear. Carmen nodded fast her eyes glistening with happiness that I was trusting her with something so important. "I think I like Mathew" I finally breathed out as my cheeks grew to a bright red and Carmen squealed with happiness 

"Oh Ali that's so sweet!" Carmen said loudly and my sister looked at us. I shushed her blushing even more. "Sorry" She whispered smiling madly. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. She winked her teeth showing in a tight grin.
