Just a side note: I want to thank rehthequeen for the ideas for my story, and I'm not sure if I'm going to go with them yet, but I did come up with a beginning. Any other ideas or constructive comments are greatly appreciated. Also, once I have more to the story I'll post more, and you can help me come up with a title. I don't think I have enough to come up with one now. Well, here's part of chapter one.

Chapter 1 part 1
"Good morning Raven," I say to my dog as I turn off my alarm.
I walk over to the mirror hanging from the back of my door, see my turquoise colored eyes are a tad blood shot, wipe off yesterdays makeup, and then turn on my straightener. As if I really needed to straighten my hair though. This blonde mess never did anything but a little wave. I straighten it anyway, just enough so that my bangs will stay on one side of my face. I have just enough eyeliner on to not have to put any on today. That was always good. Ggggrrrbbleeee... My stomach is talking to me, time to see what my mom cooked up for breakfast.
"Hey Illiana. Sleep well?" asks my mom.
"I would sleep better if I had that new bed you promised two paychecks ago. And Mom, it would be nice if you started calling me Illy. Illiana is just so..." I started to say before someone cut me off.
"Illy, be nice to your mom. At least you have a mother figure that loves you no matter what" he whispered in my ear.
I turn around and it was Jaxson, my boyfriend of four years, finally back from visiting his grandparents.
"Ohh Jax you're back! I missed you so much, you have no idea."
"Illy, I'm pretty sure I missed you just as much if not more" he said in his calm but assertive voice.
"So, what's for breakfast Mrs. Dawson?" Jax asked, and I heard another grumble.
"French toast, bacon, and fruit. That is unless you two want something else," she said.
I grabbed myself a plate, loaded it with four pieces of french toast and two pieces of moms' infamous turkey bacon, then took a bowl out of the dishwasher to put some fruit in. Jax did the same. I waited for him to finish putting what seemed like all the food onto his plate, then we walked over to the table together. I sat across from Jax, like we always did, and just stared at him for a while; glad he was finally home. I knew Jaxson was my 'soul mate' when he bumped into me in the hallway my freshman year. He was the out-spoken, yet overly attractive boy on the baseball team. His grass green eyes and his perfect smile are what reeled me in. I noticed Jax cut his hair since I've seen him last, he no longer had curly sandy blonde hair, it was cut just long enough for him to spike it. Different, but cute on him.
"Illy. Why are you staring at me?" he asked playfully.
"Sorry Jax, just remembering when you ran into me the beginning of my freshman year," I said.
"When I ran into you, you mean when you ran into me!" he said playfully.
"I guess," I mumbled, shoving a bite of french toast into my mouth.
"So, what's on the agenda today?" my mom asked.
Before I had a chance to answer, Jax says "Well, seeing as I'm home a few days early, I wanted to surprise Illiana with a little more than just me being home early." I'll have to ask him what that was about when we get away from my mom. She was always too nosey for my liking.
