Chapter 1
"Do you know if our new neighbours have any children?" Anna asked her friend Rachelle. "No, I heard it was Ritchie from 5ive!" Rachelle replied. "Let's go, maybe we'll see him." Anna said and she and Rachelle went to Ritchie's house. "Yep. that's him! He looks like a girl!" Rachelle said when they saw Ritchie walking passed the window. "Yeah, I can't believe I thought he was goodlooking!" Anna agreed. "Hey, I know a good joke. What if we write him a fake love letter. We tell him to come to our house at 3 and then leave a note at the door that says "Got ya!"" Rachelle said. "I don't know. What if he thinks it's real?" "DUH! he's supposed to think it's real. Come on!"
"Okay. But if he's mad at us it's not my idea."
Anna wrote the letter:
"To Ritchie
From the first time I saw you I'm in love with you. You're eyes are so beautifull and I love your smile. Come to my house at 3. I live at number 55.
Love,
Your secret lover."
"Tim ,come here!" Rachelle called her little brother. "Tim, can you do something for us? Bring this letter to Ritchie please."
"Why?"
"Cause I'll tell mamma you stole a candy if you don't."
Tim ran away and gave the letter to Ritchie. Anna and Rachelle followed him true the window of Anna's room. "Quick, the got ya note" Rachelle said. She wrote "got ya" on a piece of paper and left it at the door. It was 2.55. 5ive minutes later Ritchie came to their house. He looked real nervous. Anna and Rachelle ran downstairs to watch him. Ritchie saw the note and looked really hurt. Rachelle and Anna started to laugh. "Gotcha!" They yelled. When Anna saw a tear on Ritchie's face she felt sorry for him. She wanted to tell him that she was story, but Rachelle wouldn't let her. "It was just a joke!" "Rachelle! Suzanne asked if you could help with her homework, she just called." Their mother yelled. Rachelle went to Suzanne's house and Anna went to Ritchie's house.
Anna rang the bell. After a few moments Ritchie opened, and Anna saw he had been crying. "What do you want? you wanna laugh at me again?" He said. "No, i want to tell you I'm sorry." Anna replied. "Yeah sure. Like you really care about how I feel."
"Rich, I'm really sorry. It wasn't my idea, I didn't like it but Rachelle thought it was funny."
"If Rachelle tells you it's funny to jump of a bridge, are you gonna do it?"
"NO ofcourse not!' But I"
"I don't wanna hear it. When I saw you I liked you. And I thought you liked me too when I got that letter. But you just start to laugh at me."
"Rich listen. I'm really sorry, I didn't want to hurt you. Can you please forgive me."
"Maybe, if you mean what you said."
"I do mean it. I really like you. Can you give me a change?"
"It would be hard to say no to you." he smiled. She smiled back and closed her eyes as she felt his lips on hers.
