..::: Chapter 1: The Beginning :::..

The main storyline revolves around the students at Madame Senetksy's School of the Performing Arts. Let's start from the beginning... who's who at this prestigious Arts School? First we have best friends Rose Wallace, Cinnamon Carlson and Ice Goodman. These 3 girls met on the first day of school. Ice's sweet boyfriend Balwin transfers to be closer to Ice and they have a steady growing relationship. Another of Rose's best friend's Annie Tatterton, attends the school also, but she lives at home with her father Troy Tatterton. She has just recently gotten out of a relationship with Luke Castel Jr, her very handsome stepbrother. In a twist of events, Rose and Luke met one another at the annual Halloween Mascarade Ball at Annie's home. Sparks immediately flew and the 2 grew closer than ever... but both felt strange because they both cared so much for Annie. However Annie was getting over Luke Jr.... and getting closer to his uncle Drake Casteel, a young business man working for her father Troy. Drake, Luke and Annie grew up together, very close, like true best friends... but Annie had become alittle upset over the whole Rose and Luke situation... Drake was there for her... but at the same time... Drake had met a beautiful young woman named Raven Flores, an aspiring singer at the Senetksy School whom he had become somewhat close to... Raven had developed strong feelings for Drake, but it was obvious that his feelings were only for Annie...

On a warm November evening... Rose and Luke Jr made love for the first time in her dorm room. They both expressed their love for one another, but Rose continued to hold back... was it her fear of truely letting herself be loved fully? Luke went home feeling helpless and wondered if he would ever break down those walls surrounding Rose's fragile heart...

During that same day... Annie had experienced a tramatic fall and had fallen unconcious for several minutes... dreams of her days with her grandfather Tony enveloped her mind and she turned to Drake for comfort.... in the small quaint cottage, Annie and Drake made love together. Drake was confused about everything after that... he knew he loved Annie.. wanted a relationship with her, but something inside him kept him from fully going further with it. He knew Annie loved him, but he continued to ignore their budding relationship... his mind would drift to Raven at times...

Back at School... several new students had arrived for late registration. Among those were Fern Longchamp, a young woman with dreams of being a super model. Her room mate Gisselle Dumas, a beautiful young woman from New Orleans. They were born of the same model... firey young women with a desire for young men... and getting what they wanted. Also several young men transfered to the school. Among those were Corbette Adams and Phillip Cutler.... 2 young men... the male versions
of Fern and Gisselle. Corbette and Phillip both determined to conquer a few hearts... and maybe break a few too... We also met Pearl Andreas, a sweet blonde from Louisiana. By now the annual Christmas party at Farthy was around the corner and everyone began searching for their costumes... The night of the party was one to remember... most everyone was there. Rose and Luke were reunited after a long absence from one another and spent the evening in the cottage out back. They talked and Luke gave Rose a beautiful silver ring... she didn't accept it... breaking Luke's heart once again... Annie kept trying to talk to Drake, but he avoided the conversation... he just felt so confused and didn't know what to do. Fern and Gisselle showed up... and Fern decided to set her sights on Drake Casteel. She faked a fall and wormed herself between Drake and Annie. Drake, thank God, didn't fall for it, but this just fueled Fern's fire... for him, Luke Jr, and any other guy she wanted.

A terrible snow storm arrived in the night and the party didn't end until late after midnight. The next day.... life started again for some... new students arrived...
