INTRODUCTION
Well, I signed up for an account here before I was ready for it.  But I guess I might as well upload what little I have.  What your about to read is a prologue to a still untitled story.  The main character is Alex, a 15-year-old boy finishing up his sophomore year in high school.

So there we were -- naked on the beach, in the middle of the night, and it was good.  I'd like to say we controlled our animal instincts and didn't have sex that night, but I'd be lying.  I'd like to say we were smart and used protection, but I'd be lying.  I'd like to say she didn't get pregnant -- fortunately I can say that, and I'm not lying.  Could you say we got lucky?  Hell yeah!  But really, when I think about it, after all the odd stuff we'd been through, SOMETHING had to go right for us.

Then again, do you believe in fate?  I mean, I guess, in a way, everything went right for us.  I mean, I just had sex with a girl I love, not only that but she's also one of the prettiest girls in school.  Lying there afterwards was the happiest moment of my life.  Seems pretty right to me.  It's all in how you look at it.  Fate just works in some pretty twisted ways sometimes.

Twisted?

When the week began, all I knew about her was her name, and I had a crush not on her, but on her taller, blonder sister.
