Just Me
Number 5
Did he really just ask me to marry him? I couldn't believe it.
"OMG Brandon. I don't know what to say besides yes." I said practically speechless. "Yes is all I need baby." he said.
I was in love. I knew it right then and there. As soon as he asked I only thought
yes. "I can't wait to start our lives together." he said. "I can't wait either, but we
have all the rest of summer and my senior year before we can
even get married." I replied.
"I can wait baby."
All I could do was smile. We walked along the rest of the beach, hand in hand.
I was walking down the beach with my future husband. I couldn't
wait to tell everybody.
----------------------------------------
Brandon dropped me off at home at like 8:45. I ran into the living room, where
my mom was sitting on the couch. My dad divorsed my mom when I was
little. Since then he has gotten remarried and had two more kids.
I very rarely hear from him. I didn't need him though. My mother
was the most supportive person ever.
"Mom! Guess what!" I said, practically squealing.
"Oh, honey stop squealing. What is it?" she replied.
"I'm engaged."
"Your what?"
The look on my mother's face was shock with a mix of anger and disappointment.
"Oh, honey. You are only 17. Why are you engaged?" she replied.
"Because he makes me happy mom. I really am in love with him." I said.
"Brandon's leaving for the army soon. Why would you want to be tied down?" she replied.
"Mom! I wouldn't be tied down. I am in love with him. I don't want any one else."
"Whatever. I am just saying. He is going to be gone soon and their is going to be other guys. It's a known fact. I just worry about this."
"Mom stop worrying so much. I will be fine and mine and Brandon's relationship will be fine. I promise you."
"Just go to your room. I am disapointed in you."
Shock and anger filled my body when I left the room. I thought my mom would be supportive of me. What did she know? I just hoped my friends wouldn't
have the same sour reaction as she did.

Just Me
Number 4
I darted upstairs to my bedroom to find the perfect outfit for my date tonight.
I pulled out a casual summer dress, a light grey cardigan, and grey flats.
I put my blond hair in light curls and put in a bow. I put on light make-up.
That took me like three hours. I didn't want to wait any longer so I texted Brandon.
L: Can you pick me up early? I am all ready and I miss you.
B: I am almost ready. Give me five minutes?
L:Kay. Sounds cool.
I added the finishing touches. I looked good. Just then I heard a knock
on the door. "Brandonnn!" I thought. I ran down the stairs and flung the door open. I jumped into his arms. He caught me.
"Beautiful. Don't go all crazy on me now" he said in the soothing voice.
"I am just really excited. What are we doing?"
"Oh, just something. Come on. We have a little bit of a ride."
We walked out to Brandon's car and I slipped into the passenger seat. I loved that Brandon was a year older then me. He graduated in a couple of days. I
didn't like the fact that he would be leaving me. He had joined the army.
It made me nervous, but I knew I needed to support Brandon. I must have been lost in my daydreams because before I knew it we were at the beach.
The most gorgeous beach I had ever seen. I climbed out of the car and Brandon grabbed a picnic basket out the backseat.
"It's beautiful." I said slowly, analyzing the beautiful scenery.
"Just like you. Now let's sit down and eat so you can have your suprise." he said.
"Okay." I replied. I sat down as we ate the salad and sandwiches that Brandon had packed.
"Ya know you make pretty good sandwiches?" I said with a laugh about to escape.
"I'm talented. Aren't I?"
"Of course. Now lets go. I wanna walk down the beach."
I jumped up and took his hand. It felt amazing to be walking down the beach hand in hand with the love of your life.
"Now Lauren I have to ask you something" he said slowly.
"What handsome?" I replied.
Just then he got on on knee and pulled the most beautiful ring I have ever seen out of his pocket.
"Will you marry me Miss Lauren Sue Baker?"

Just Me
Number 2
I whipped my car into a parking space and carefully climbed out.
Everybody stared as I grabbed my bag with a big smile on my face.
I was so confident, but when you had a 5'5 115 pound frame you could
act the way I do. I met Brandon at the door. One word to describe
Brandon would be perfect. He's tall with brown hair which he always
kind of whips to the side. He has the most beautiful green eyes I have ever seen and his smile is so amazing. I really think I am in love with the guy. He slips
his hand into mine while taking my bag. "You are such a gentlemen." I said with a twinkling in my eye. "Well, Of course. Anything for this beautiful girl." he replied. How could he be more perfect? I swing my locker door open with a bang. I look at myself in the mirror I put in there last year. You always need a mirror. "I guess I look good enough." I say aloud to Brandon. "Oh gorgeous. Stop it! I have a treat for you later. We have to go out to dinner, too." he said. "OK! I can't wait." I said. "I will pick you up at seven, beautiful." he said and with that he was walking down the hallway to meet his friends. Could this day get any better?

Just Me
Number 1
"Earth to Lauren..." my mother softly said into my ear. My eyes fluttered open and a huge smile emerged on my face. I slowly sat up in bed. "Hey mom. Thanks
for waking me up." I said half awake. "Anytime sweetheart. Now get going!
It's your last day of school!" my mother replied and with that she was gone. This one last day of my junior year, then it would be summer time.
I was buzzing when I climbed out of bed. I couldn't wait. I carefully
put waves in my light blonde hair. I pulled on a tank top and pair of
shorts. It wasn't allowed in the school rules, but who cared. It was
the last day of school. I grabbed my large bag overflowing with things I probably wouldn't need, but still bothered to take, slipped down the stairs, and into the
kitchen where my mother waited. I grabbed a bagel and darted out the door to my car in the driveway. I couldn't wait to see Brandon.
I could already tell today was going
to be a good day.
