  “Can I come in Aunt Linda?”

  “Yes of course you can. How was your night?”

  “I had a lot of fun, Alex’s is having a party this Saturday and Jennifer asked if I could go with her.”

  “Well of course you can go you need all the socializing you can get.

  “Okay goodnight Aunt Linda I will see you in the morning I said and went up to bed.”

  The next morning at breakfast Aunt Linda told me that she mad plan for us tomorrow morning so not to make any.

  "Okay what are we doing?"

  "You will have to wait and see tomorrow it is a surprise."

  “Okay I will see you after school I told her as I got up and headed for the door. “

  All week all everyone talked about was Alex’s party. I was getting excited it would be the first party that I have been to.

  Chapter Six

  Saturday morning, I got up early and got ready and went down to breakfast, Aunt Linda was already dressed instead of in her robe and ready to go. When I sat down, she said that as soon as we were done with breakfast that we were leaving, she wanted to go and get everything done so I could be back in time for my party tonight. As soon as we were done eating, we went and got in my Aunt Linda’s car and off we went.

  “So where are we going?” I asked.

  “You will just have to wait and see when we get there.” She said with a big smile. An hour later we were pulling in to the Miller’s car lot.

  “What are we doing here? I ask.

  “Since were here I guess I can tell you, we are here to pick up you knew car.”

  “What my new car no way, you don’t have to get me a car.”

  “It’s too late I already did all you have to do is pick which car and the color that you want.”

  When we got out of the car, I saw Mr. Miller walking up to meet us.

  “I see you made it he.” said to my Aunt as we started walking toward him.

  “Yes, we did. Are the car’s ready for my niece to pick one out?”

  “Yes, I have them parked around back come this way.”

  When we walked around to the back of the building where there were four beautiful cars parked side by side.

  “Okay Lacey go ahead and check them out and let me know which one you want and what color you want it in.”

  I said okay and I ran up and look at all the car’s I had a hard time trying to choose which one I wanted they were all nice car’s, but I finally decided on the silver one that was on the end. So, I went back to where my Aunt Linda and Mr. Miller was standing and told them that I wanted the one on the end.

  “Oh yes The Mercedes-Benz SLR.” Good choose Mr. Miller’s said.

  “That is the one of our best sellers and my favorite. What color do you want?"

  "Silver is perfect."

  "Okay then let’s go get the paper work started and get the key then off you can go.”

  “Does Lacey have to stay will we do all the paper work?”

  “No, I think it will be okay if she doesn’t want to sit around while we do all the boring paper work. Just fallow us in and I will get you the keys and you can go ahead and go home.”

  When we go to Mr. Miller’s office, he got the key’s and gave them to me.

  “Here you go be careful and in joy your new car.”

  “Thank you, Mr. Miller, and Thank you Aunt Linda. I will see you at home.” I gave my Aunt Linda a big kiss and a hug and ran out the door.

  “Be careful she called to me as I was running out the door.”

  “I will I yelled back.”

  When I got in the car all I could do was just sit there staring at everything, I couldn’t believe that it was really mine. After a few minutes I finally put the key in the ignition started it and drove away.

  I couldn’t believe how smooth it drove I didn’t want to go home I just wanted to drive it forever, but I did as my Aunt asked and went straight home, I would have plenty of time to drive my new car. When I got home, Robert was outside washing the limo. When I got out of the car Robert whistled and said wow nice car.

  “Thank you I can’t believe that my Aunt Linda bought it for me.”

  “Mrs. Walters is a very considerate lady and she love to make people happy.”

  “Well she has made me very happy.”

  When I got up to my room, I remembered that Jennifer was coming to pick me up for the party, so I called her and told her that I didn’t need a ride that my Aunt bought me a new car so I would be driving myself. She said okay but don't be late.

  I couldn’t wait for the party tonight, but I was also very nerves I have never been invited to party before especially one with a bunch of rich kids. I was just coming in from taking a walk in the garden, when the phone rang. I ran to the phone in the hall and picked it up to my surprise my Aunt Linda was on the other end.

  “Hello Lacey, I’m calling to tell you that I won’t be home an tell later tonight, Sam called me just as I was leaving the car lot to see if I had finished up there, he wants to get together; I told him that I would like that. So have fun at your party tonight and don’t be out pasted midnight okay.”

  “Okay I will be home by midnight and I will try to have fun. You have fun also and I will see you when you get home or first thing in the morning.”

  After I got off the phone with my Aunt, I went in to find Jane to let her know that my Aunt Linda wasn’t going to be home for lunch or dinner and that I would just make something for myself. She said that I didn’t have to make it myself that she was more than happy to make me something.

  “That’s okay I liked to cook I used to cook all the time for me and my mother.”

  “Okay dear but if you change your mind or need something let me know.”

  “Okay thank you Jana."

  I wasn't that hungry, so I just made me a small salad and a half of a sandwich, after I was finished making them and put everything back, I went out by the pool to eat. I must have fell asleep because the next thing I remember was Tammy waking me up to tell me that it was getting late and that I need to start getting ready for my party tonight. I sat up and grinned the sleep out of my eyes and said thank you to Tammy.

  I went up to my room to shower and get dressed. I got out of the shower and went and stood in my closet for twenty minutes trying to decide on what I wanted to wear. I finely choose a matching skirt and sleeveless red silk blouse with a V-neck; I left my hair down over my shoulders.

  When I was ready, I went down and told Jane that I was leaving and that I would be home by midnight. When she turned to tell me okay have fun, she stopped in mid-sentence.

  “Wow you look beautiful Lacey all the boys aren’t going to be able to take their eyes off of you.”

  “Thank you, Jane.”

  I got in my new car and put Makayla and Alex’s address into my GPA and started driving. When I pulled up to the front door of their house a young man in a red vest came up, opened my door and said good evening ma’am I will park your car for you. I got out, thanked him and headed for the door.

  The door was opened so I just went in besides the music was so loud that if I tried to knock no one would hear it anyway. As soon as I walked in the door, I seen Jennifer and Makayla headed my way. I waved to them and started toward them. When we reached each other, Jennifer said that she was starting to think that I changed my mind and that I wasn’t going to show up.

  “Oh well, I’m glad your finally here let’s go get a drink.”

  “Okay let’s go.”

  We went to the kitchen and got are drinks and headed for the patio to sit by the pool, some of the people were swimming and some were dancing to a live band. We went and sat in some chairs that were set up by the pool. We we’re sitting there talking when Jake, Stephan and Alex came over. Jake and Jennifer have been dating for the last three months, Makayla and Stephan have been going out for the last year. Stephan leaned over and kissed Makayla on the check and asked her if she wanted to dance. She said yes and she grabs Steph
an’s hand and ran off to the dance floor.

  Jake and Alex sat down next to me and Jennifer and asked us how you like the party so far.

  “It has been fun so far.” Jennifer said.

  We sat there and talk for a while, then a new song started to play, and Jennifer jumped up grabbed Jake and said I love this song and off they went. I just sat there staring at the ground. Then after a few minutes Alex asked me I wanted to dance. I told him that I did, so he took my hand and lead me to the dance floor.

  When the song ended, and the next one started Jennifer and Makayla keep on dancing. Alex asked if I wanted to dance more or if I wanted to go get a drink.

  “I would like to get a drink.” I said.

  “Okay let’s go. “

  We went to the kitchen when we got there Alex got me a soda out of the fridge and handed it to me.

  “How about I take you around and introduce you to some of the others.”

  “Okay sounds like a plan.”

  He took my hand and we started to walk through the crowd, and we would stop every so often so Alex could introduce me to the people I didn’t know.

  When we made our way back out to the pool, I could see that Jennifer and Makayla were still dancing. Alex asked me if I wanted to dance again. I said yeah. We danced so much that I thought I would pass out. I was having so much fun that I didn’t want the night to end. When the party started dying down, we all went and sat for a while to catch our breath.

  All the sudden we heard some girl screaming so we got up to go see what was going on. When we got though the crowd and out the front door where all the screaming was coming from, we could see Gabrielle and some other girl fighting. Alex, Jake and Stephan ran over and started pulling them apart. When Jake went to grab Gabrielle, she turned and punch him right in the eye, he yelled at her and grabbed her again this time getting a good grip. Jennifer and Makayla ran over to her and asked her what was going on.

  It was obviously that she was drunk; she couldn’t even stand up straight. When Jennifer finally got her attention, she said that is was none of her business and walked of.

  After all the ruckus was over Jennifer said that she needs to head home. I looked at my watch and said that I needed to get home to. Jennifer told Jake that she would talk to him tomorrow and then ask me if I wanted to walk out to her car with her. I said yeah. I told Makayla and Alex thank you for inviting me and that I had a lot of fun.

  As Jennifer and I started for our cars she looked at me and said, “Oh hey I forgot you said that you got a new car today I will go with you to your car so I can see it.”

  “Oh yeah I forgot to. I can’t wait to show it off to everyone.”

  When we got to it Jennifer looked at it and said,

  “Wow that is a nice car, you are lucky. My parents own the car lot and they wouldn't let me get a car that nice.

  “Thank you I really like it to, I can’t believe that my Aunt would buy me something so nice and expensive.”

  “You’re lucky to have someone to love you like that.”

  ‘Yeah I know, well I better get home, so I don’t get in trouble.”

  “Okay me to, talk to you tomorrow.”

  When I got home, I went straight up stairs to see if my Aunt Linda was home, I went to her bedroom door and knock after a few minutes when she didn’t answer, and I didn’t hear anything I knock again but a little louder this time. When she still didn’t answer I figured that she was either asleep or not home, so I went to my room and got ready for bed.

  In the morning when I went down for breakfast my Aunt Linda and Sam was at the table drinking coffee.

  “Good morning Lacey how was the party last night?”

  “Good morning Aunt Linda, Sam. It was great I had a lot of fun.”

  “That’s good I’m glad you had fun. Do you have any plans for today?”

  “No, I was just going to sit around the house and then get my homework done.”

  “Oh good, Sam would like to take us out to lunch today, he wants to spend more time with you so he can get to know you better.”

  “That sounds good I would like that thank you.”

  “Okay we will be leaving around one so be ready.”

  “Okay Aunt Linda I will.”

  After I finished my breakfast I went up to my room and changed into my bathing suit and went down to the pool and swam for a while then I sat in the sun in one of the chaises that was by the pool. I must have fallen asleep because the next thing I remember was Jane shaking me awake. I rubbed the sleep out of my eyes and look up at Jane and said what is it Jane?

  “Your Aunt Linda wanted me to let you know that you will be leaving in an hour and that you should start getting read.”

  “Okay thank you Jane.”

  I got up and started up the stairs, I ran into my Aunt on the way she was heading to her room to, we walked up the stairs together.

  “Oh Lacey, I would like it if you would be the blue dress that I bought for you it will be perfect for where we are going today.”

  “Okay Aunt Linda I will.”

  I didn’t ask where we were going, I just went into my room and took a shower and got dress. I took my time on my hair and make-up, so it looked perfect sense I didn’t know where we were going. When I was done getting read, I went down stair, when I got down there Sam was in the den having a drink waiting for me and my Aunt Linda. As I walked in, Sam looked up from is drink and took one look at me and said wow you look beautiful Lacey.

  “Thank you I said as I sat down, is my Aunt Linda ready yet?”

  “No Tammy just came in and said that she will be down in five minutes.”

  “Okay.”

  I went and sat on the sofa by the fire place to wait.

  “Would you like a drink?”

  “No thank you.”

  It was exactly five minutes when my Aunt Linda came down, when she walked into the room both Sam and I look at her and at the same time said wow you look beautiful. She looked beautiful all the time, but she looks extremely beautiful today she was wearing a black sleeveless dress, with a strain of pearl and matching earrings and ring, she wore her hair up in a loose bun.

  “Well shall we going Sam ask?”

  “Yes, let’s said my Aunt Linda.”

  We went out and got into Sam’s car. On the way to the restaurant, Sam asked me about school and how I was getting along with everyone.

  “Things are going good so far and I am getting along with most of the kids there.”

  “That's good sometimes it is hard to make friends at a new school.”

  “I think that if it wasn't from my Aunt having a part for me when I first got here that I probably would have had a hard time.”

  We pulled up to the front of the restaurant and the gentleman came and opened my Aunt Linda's and my doors then went to the drivers to get the keys to park the car.

  When we were seated at are table Sam look at me and said.

  “So, your Aunt Linda has been telling me that you are a very good student and that you are graduating with honors and that she was hoping that you would like to come and work with us for the summer before you head of too collage.”

  “Yeah I think it would be great to go work with you for the summer, I would like to get to know about my Aunt business.”

  “That’s good then I will get things read for you to start two weeks after school gets out that way you have some time to rest before you start working.”

  “Okay great that sounds good.”

  Through the rest of our lunch my Aunt Linda and Sam talk about my graduation and that she would like to have a graduation party for me.

  When we got home, I thanked Sam for lunch and told him that I had a great time. I went up to my room changed my cloths and did my homework, then I lay around and watched TV and tell it was time for dinner. At dinner my Aunt Linda and Sam told me a little about the business and where they wanted me to start it. When I was finished eating, I excused myself and went up to my room.
r />   The next morning, I got up got ready for school went down and ate breakfast and headed out to school. When I pulled into the school everyone was sitting around Alex’s car talking. I parked, got out of my car and everyone just stared at me for a while and then they walk over to my car and said wow that is a beautiful car is it yours.

  “Yes, my Aunt Linda bought it for me this weekend.”

  “I would like it if you would take me for a ride one of this day.” Said Alex.

  “I could do that just let me know when.”

  Just then the bell rang, and we all started for the school on the way in I asked Makayla where Jennifer was.

  “Oh, you didn’t hear?”

  “Hear what?”

  “Her mother was in a bad car accident Saturday night and is in the hospital they don’t know if she is going to make it.”

  “Oh, that is horrible I will have to call her or go over and see her after school.”

  “She would like that she will need all the friends she has to help her though this. I was planning on going over there after school would you like to ride together?”

  “Yeah I would.”

  “I didn't bring my car today so can you drive us.”

  “Yes, we can meet at my car after school.”

  “Okay.”

  When we got to my classroom, I told Makayla that I would see her at lunch.

  At lunch I tried to call Jennifer, but she didn’t answer so I left her a message telling her that Makayla and I would stop by her house after school. I just hung up my phone when Makayla, Alex, Stephen, Jake and Gabrielle came to sit down.

  “Were you just trying to call Jennifer?” Makayla asked.

  “Yeah I was trying to call her, but she didn’t answer so I left a massage telling her that we are going to stop by her house after school.”

  The rest of the day I had a hard time paying attention in class I was worried about Jennifer. I couldn't wait for school to get out so we could go check on her.

  After school Makayla and I meet at my car like we had planned.

  We weren’t sure that Jennifer would be home, but we went anyway. We thought that she would be at the hospital, but we went up and rang the doorbell anyway and to are surprise Jennifer answered the door. She didn’t look so good it looked like she had been crying for hours.
