"Can I go?" 14-year old Jessica asked for what seemed the millionth time.
"I already told you, you're too young to go with us." Said Rebeca, Jessica's 18 year old sister.
"besides you don't fit in the car." said Julia, Jessica's 17 year old sister.
"i never fit in the car, i'm so sick of this, you guys always go out and always leave me at home!" Jessica said.
"Just hang out with Sofia, and Ana-Sofi." Rebeca tried to compromise
"they're 8" Jessica said
"You know what forget it. just go and have fun and forget that you even have a sister." Jessica added.
"Jessica stop, it's not my fault you can't come, besides everybody else that's going are older than us, so like i said you're too young to come with us, so stop complainig." Rebeca said, aggravated with the whole situation.
"I said i was fine just go.." Jessica started saying but stop when they heard a honk outside.
"Bye guys have fun,don't worry about me, i'll be fine."
"Bye Jessica, look we'll go to the movies tomorrow ok?" Julia
"of course we will." Jessica said sarcastilly, knowing that just like every weakend when her two older sisters went out they wouldn't wake up until the next afternoon, abd when they did wake up they would be too tired to go with her anywhere.
It's what always happened.
She was used to it, she was used to satying at home every weakend.
But this weakend was different, she wanted to go out.
She was sick of staying in.
But that was the burden of being the midle child of 5 girls.
She was too young to hang out with her older sisters who were only 10 months apart from each other.
And she was way too old to hang out with her younger sisters, who were twins, and 5 minutes apart.
They had just moved to West Palm Beach, Florida two weeks ago so she still didn't have any friends her own age.
Her new neighbors were around her sisters age so they were fine.
Her neighbors little sisters were around the twins age so they were fine.
But Jessica had no one to talk to.
She walked over to the window in her room, to see the view of the beach. (they moved to a beach house)
She saw this very cute boy sitting on the sand right acroos from her house.
He looked around her age, so she decided to go talk to him.
"Maybe tonight won't be that boring." She thought.
She went to the kitchen to get out through the back so she wouldn't have to go around.
She was about to leave when her mom stopped her.
"And where do you think your going?"
"I'm just going to get some fresh air" Jess said.
"It's late."
"It's just eight, i'll be back in 30 minutes or less i promise."
"Fine don't go to far."
"i won't bye mom"
"bye sweety."
Jessica rolled her eyes, she hated when her mom called her that.
She walked up to where she last saw the boy, but he was gone.
She turned around to see if she saw him, but didn't.
She didn't know what it was about him, but she couldn't stop thinking about him.
She sat down and stared at the darkened ocean, might as well stay there instead of going home.
She didn't want to go home.
Home was so boring.

June 25, 1996

Jessica woke up feeling tired and ready to keep on sleeping. But the knock on the door made her get up.
"It's open" She screemd in a very tired voice.
She tried to go back to sleep but her mom stopped her.
"Jessica would you get up. It's 1:30 all ready."
"Umm Hmm"
"Jessica, i'm going to be back in 5 minutes if your not up by then your grounded."
"ok, ok i'm up" Jessica got up and headed for the bathroom
She changed and went to get breakfast.
"Mornin mom" Jessica said
"Morning."
Jessica ate her breakfast and told her mom she was leaving for her morning run.
She left and started running on the beach.
She had her walkman on and wasn't paying much attention to where she was going
since they lived on private property, and the beach was almost always desserted. That's why she loved to run on it. She never had to worry about bumping into anybody.
But she did.
She looked down to see a girl around her age on the sand.
"I'm so sorry" Jessica said helping the girl up.
"It's ok. It's my fault anyway, i wasn't watching were i was going."
"Neither was I" Jessica laughed
"What's your name?" The girl asked
"Jessica Lopez, You?"
"Britney Spears"
"Nice to meet you."
"You too, how old are you?" Britney asked
"14, you?"
"14, listen me and a couple of my friends are going to get soe pizza later you wanna come."
"Sure."
"You know were PaPa's Pizza is?"
"Yeah"
"Meet us there around 3 ok?"
"see you there"
"alright bye, nice to meet you"
"you too."
Jessica turned around and jogged back to her house.
"she seemed nice" Jessica thought
By the time she got back to her house it was already 2:30
"Mom can i go to the pizza place later" Jessica asked
"What time?"
"3:00"
"With who?"
"Britney"
"Who's Britney?"
"This girl I met"
"How old is she?"
"She's 14, what's with all the question?"
"I'm your mom, it's what i do. Fine you can go, but don't stay out so late."
"Alright i'm going to go change, thanks mom."
Jessica, took a quick shower, changed into a baggy pair of blue jeans, and a baby blue medium size t-shirt.
Papi's Pizza was only 2 blocks away from her house so she didn't have to much.,
She got there 5 minutes late. She spotted Britney, and her friends the second she opened the door. She walked over to them
"Hi Britney" she said, feeling a bit out of place.
"Hey Jesica, glad you made it. Guys this is the girl i was telling you about, Jessica, these people are my friends, Christina, Joshua, but you can call him JC, Ryan, and Justin.
"Nice to meet you" they all said at the same time.
"Nice to meet you to."
Christina, JC, and Ryan were on the left side of the boothe, and Justin and Britney were on the right side.
Jessica sat dwn next to Justin sisnce Britney was already on the window.
"you live on beach right? I think i've seen you before." Justin asked
"Yeah, i just moved here from New York" Jessica answered.

That's how it all started.
They became fast frieands and before you knew it they were inceperable.
The problem?
They were in love with each other.
But were too afraid to say anything.
Until one day

May 24, 1999

"Jessica you have to go to your prom" her mom said
"I don't have to." Jessica answered
"your already dressed up for the occasion, i'll drive you"
"NO MOM" Jessica said
"I'm going upstairs to change" Jessica added.
It was prom day.
Her so-called Date had called 10 minutes after he was supposed to pick her up to tell her he was taking someone else.
Jessica wanted to punch him.
He ruined one of the best days of her life for her.
"Jessica can you get the door?!" Her mom screamed.
She hadn't had enough time to change so she opened the door weaing the prom dress.
She opened the door to find Justin, holding a corsage, and wearing a very sharp lookin tuxedo.
"Justin? What are you doing here? I though you were in New York with the rest of the boys."
"Change of plans. You reay to go?"
"Go where?" Jessica said still not getting it
"'To your prom of course"
"What?"
"I'm taking you now come on."

They left and had a great time.

After the prom

Jessica and Justin were walkimg sitting on the sand at the beach.
"Thank you" Jessica said
"For what?" Justin asked
"For being here with me."
"No problem"
"Jessica we have to talk"
"about what"
"Jessica i love you"
"You what?!"
"I know you probably don't have the same feelings toward me but you have to know. I've loved you since the first day you walk in the pizza place."
"You have?" Jessica sked still not believing what she was hearing
"I love you Jessica."
"Oh Justin that's the most wonderful thing i've ever heard in my entire life" She screemed and she pushed herself on him and started kissing him.
"what?" Justin asked confused.
"oh Justin i love you so much"
"You do?" Justin asked
"yeah"
"oh thank god" they laughed and kept on kissing
