Lacy
It's the day before my birthday and as always, I have come to sit on my stone bench by the side of the river. It's not really mine but I think of it as being my special place. I have just seen James in the local shop and we smiled at each other. As I turn another year older, I can't help but wonder why I am so different. Since the age of eight I have been told there was something wrong with me. There must be because I have no friends except James who has always looked out for me although I don't know why. There is something special about James being around him makes me feel at home if only things were different!

I have admired Lacy for years she has an inner strength that she doesn't realise that she has and one day I am determined to ask her out. I have been waiting a long time for the right moment. I can always tell when her confidence level is low there's not much I don't know about Lacy. I know that when I ask her out, she will question and second guess everything but one day we will be a couple.
