Behind the Costume Chapter 1

Chapter 1

Aly was spread out on Celia's king sized bed. Celia had thrown the biggest sleepovers ever, in Aly's opinion. Her parents gave her whatever she wanted, including an iPhone and expensive Macs. She changed schools when she wanted too. In the last three years she had gone to four private schools. Monroe Middle was the first public school she had been to.

"Ok" said Angela. "Listen up" Hillary and Celia looked at her automatically although Aly took her time. "Ahem" said Angela looking at Aly. Aly rolled her eyes. Angela was not her boss. "I'm turning twelve in a week and I have NO idea where to host it or what to do" Angela looked at them. "Ideas please?"

"We could host the party here because it's big" said Celia. Angela nodded. "Invite boys" said Hillary. Angela grinned. "Ew!" said Aly. "Why would you invite boys?" Angela rolled her eyes. "Because I'm turning twelve. I will be a teenager" "Um actually thirteen is the official teenager age"said Aly. Angela rolled her eyes again.

"Well what should we do at the party?" asked Angela. "Eat, dance, play games" said Aly. Hillary grinned. "Spin the bottle" she said. Angela and Celia exchanged glances. "Perfect" they said. Spin the bottle? She had never actually played the game but from what she heard it involved kissing. "Hey!" said Aly. "Do I have to kiss someone?" "Only if someone dares you to. Which is only if the bottle points to you" said Hillary. "What if I got Max?" Hillary jumped around. "And what if I get David?" asked Celia who got up and jumped with Hillary. But Aly didn't get up. What if she had to kiss Logan? And what if she had to kiss someone else? What if.....

Aly's cell phone rang. "Hello" she answered. Her phone was a blue Sanyo Katana and she adored it. It was Jenna. Jenna had never called her before. "Hey! I wanted to tell you that there's going to be a Halloween dance at the end of the month" she said. "Cool" said Aly. Jenna was on the student council. "I'm telling you because we might not have the signs up by Monday and you could tell Angela and her posse. Then the whole school will know in a matter of time" Aly laughed. "Ok Jenna. I'll tell them" "Thanks" said Jenna. "Bye!"

"HALLOWEEN DANCE!" yelled Celia. "Omg!" said Hillary. "We must get dates!" said Angela. "Why must?" asked Aly. "Because" said Angela. "The dance shows whether who is capable of holding the Alpha title for the year" Aly shook her head. Now she had to do Spin the Bottle and get a date?

Aly knew who was going with who at the dance. Celia would ask David, Hillary would ask Max, Aly would try to ask Logan and Angela would ask......Oh my god thought Aly. Angela wasn't afraid of asking boys out. She was going to ask Logan and most likely she would be first. This was worse than Aly thought.
