Subject: SORRY.

Hey guys,

I'm sorry about the dance and that I couldn't make it to the concert and stuff last night.. I really wanted to be there, believe me. :( I don't know where that attack came from all of the sudden, and I'm kind of just as surprised as I guess everybody else was. I still don't know what went on, but from the way Ella is acting, I'm guessing it was a pretty bad one.. I'm more embarrassed than anything else. I guess at least I didn't pee myself lol it has been known to happen..

But yeah, I'm seriously sorry that I ruined the night but I hope you all had fun before that, and we should definitely all hang out sometime over break if you're up for it. And if my mom will let me out of bed or doesn't try to make me live at the doctor's office, she's been hovering over me like a hummingbird since they came and picked us up from school. It was already kind of a fight to get her to let me out of bed to even go online.

Anyway, even if we don't get together, expect presents in the mails.

♥ Love, Jen

Aww hon, there's no need to apologize! And there is no way you ruined the dance for me! You actually made my night a lot better by making me get out there on the dance floor. Thanks for getting me in a much better mood and I'm so sorry about what happened!

Are you feeling any better? I really hope this doesn't put a damper on your break! I'm definitely up for a visit during break. I could definitely use it. I hope you're up to it soon!

Love Meka

I'm still kind of tired, but other than that, I think I'm fine. One of my arms is pretty sore, but I think I probably just fell on it? That's just another of the joys of the disorder, I can only guess that I fell on it.. I don't really remember anything at all after I asked you guys to dance with me. It's like dancing, and then waking up in the infirmary, bam.

I'll be fine though. My mom is, like I said, helicopter parenting the hell out of me, so she has me covered. Plus I've got Ella and dad as well. I'm getting lots of rest and special treatment [like breakfast in bed!], and just trying to get back to normal.. I have to go to the doctor sometime next week, but other than, I think it'll still be a good break. We're going to decorate the tree tomorrow. :] I'll let you know what Sera & Ro say, see if we can all decide on a day.

Love Jen

Yeah, you fell pretty hard hon. And you kept hitting the floor. You really can't remember anything? Things got pretty scary.

Ooo! Breakfast in bed! Sweet! I've never had breakfast in bed before. Decorating should be fun! I'm heading out tonight to NYC to go see the big xmas tree in Rockerfeller Center with my big brother. He might even let me decorate his apartment but who knows, he can be such a grinch sometimes. Hahaha.

Definitely let me know!

No, but Ella sure seems to-- Seriously, not a single thing. That isn't unusual though, so don't be worried. I went through a period where I was having like.. multiple seizures a day when I was a kid, and I never remembered any of them, not even one. It's like every time I have one, all memories just cuts off a few minutes before it happens, and a few minutes after it ends. It's like some weird buffer zone. I don't even remember what song we danced to, I just remember getting up from the table, and trying to find a space on the floor where we could all dance together, I don't even remember actually dancing. It's like up one second, on the floor the next, like blinking.

I'm always embarrassed, but I'm kind of glad when people are there, because it's like.. I know the time didn't just disappear on me.

Clearly you need to rectify this no-breakfast-in-bed-business. You live with Sera! Make her cook for you! ;) I hope you have fun in NYC, and if he doesn't want you to decorate, just give him pouty eyes and I'm sure you'll be golden. Not even a grinch could resist a pouty faced cutie.

Will do!

Wow. I guess it's better than remembering though, remembering might be scarier. I think we danced to something poppy and delightfully bubbly. Hahaha.

You have no reason to be embarrassed. I mean... granted it doesn't change the way you feel but I did something way more embarrassing, trust me. Hahahaha.

Oh! Good idea! Maybe I can trick her into making me breakfast in bed when we get back to school from break. Good call! Big brothers can never resist the baby sister pout! Hahaha.

I always think of it like surgery, when they put you under? You say you remember that you had surgery, and I guess you know you must have, but you never really remember it. You're not supposed to. Like you said, that'd just be scarier. The mind just isn't equipped to deal with some things. Who would want to remember, right?

Can you tell I've been coaching myself with speeches like these for years? Lol..

Waittt. What did you do? I knew you seemed kinda bummed when we first ran into you and Ro, but I never actually asked, I'm sorry babe. :[ What went down??

She's pretty easy to convince. You should have seen the lunch she made for me in the summer! I could have ate for weeks. So don't let her tell you she can't pull it off!

Love Jen~

That makes a lot of sense. I say, whatever works, works right?

Oh god Jenny, I made an ass of myself to not only one, but TWO people. I had a ridiculous conversation with Brian Redd which all in all wasn't so bad but then I got into it with Gray. :\ I ended up punching him in the face and then crying. I was a little worse for the ware that night. It was just... it was stupid.

Hahaha, I will definitely convince her to make me some breakfast in bed then. XD

Whatever works. That's a good way of looking at it. Not like it's the end of the world. :] It wasn't my first, probably not my last, and I'll still be kicking after it all. Theoretically.

Well, I don't think you have to worry about Brian Redd. He doesn't exactly seem like the gossiping type, so.. even if you acted like a tool, unless his sister gets wind of it, you should be fine. And Gray is an idiot, so there you have that one. I'm sure you weren't the first girl to punch him in the chops. Probably not even the first girl that night. What did he say to make you sock him one though? If you don't mind me asking..

Get her when we go back to classes. Welcome back to the dorm present or something!

Yeah, Brian isn't so bad but Grey... ugh. It was just so stupid. We were talking and he was making an ass of himself. And... and... well... ok. So. I should start at the beginning.

I've been super secretly in love with Ben Redd for like... ever. And I don't think he's even remotely interested, which is fine... except when he's dancing with that Amber girl! So I was kind of upset about that. And I asked Grey if he wanted to dance because he was talking to me anyways and it was a stupid idea because he had greasy mincemeat pie fingers and he's a stupid boy! Sorry, I'm rambling. Anyways... he thought I had a crush on him when really I have a crush on Ben! And so he goes and like... tells me I'm not his type, that does not hurt my feelings one bit because ew. And he tells me to dance to Brian and I kinda freaked out and punched him. Then he goes on to tell me that I'm not completely undesirable because I... get this... have a nice dress. I can't believe I had a full on mental break down in front of Gregoire Leclair.

I mean, my bad for having a bad reaction, it's not like he knew what he was saying would piss me off but he was treating me like crap because I'm nerdy! He's such an ass.

Anyways... that's a brilliant idea! I'll trick her into it somehow.

Love Meka

I don't know him that well, but from what I understand, when is he not making an ass of himself? I've been on the field, I've seen his victory dance, that boy just reeks of ass-of-himself.

... Ben Redd, really? He's pretty cute, but so quiet! Not really my type, but if you think he's worth it, I trust your judgment. But I think you might be right, I don't know if he's interested in anybody at all, and.. why would he dance with Amber, I have no idea. There must be crazy pills in that cider or something.

Seriously though, you weren't in the wrong. He was being an asshole. Boys can be inconsiderate like that, trust me, I was with Charlie was.. how long? I learned my lesson with expecting boys to understand lol.. when I was talking to him at the dance, I mentioned that I was worried about El, and he was like HURR DURR MAYBE SHE'S PREGNANT? Like, wtf. Why is that the first place he goes? Stupid boys, I swear.

PS: Forget the nerd haters, we know we're hot. :]

There was definitely crazy pills in the cider. I proclaimed my affections for Ben to Grey. Ugh. Hahahaha.

They totally are jealy. xD

Oh well, it's his loss if he wants to be an ass. I don't know how guys like that even get girlfriends. It blows my mind that there are women out there who enjoy being objectified and cheated on and.. ugh. Crazy pills indeed.

He wasn't as bad as I make him out to be, I know he was just trying to help, maybe he thought I'd laugh or something, but.. do not suggest pregnancy as your first guess when I'm already panicking! Jeez! That's my sister he's talking about, and the mental images were not appreciated. :\\

Guess boys will be boys.

Hey,

You have nothing to be sorry about, seriously all that matters that you're okay. How are you doing by the way? You gave us all quite a scare. I'm glad you're getting some rest at leas though, even if your mom is driving you nuts about it right now.

You didn't ruin the night at all darling, don't even worry about it. I'm glad we got a chance to talk about everything, thanks for opening up it really did mean a lot, especially what you told me about that Lalaurie girl (and I'm not mad, really). I did miss you at the concert though, a couple of the others were asking about you too, we all missed you:(

Anyway, I agree we definitely do all need to get together sometime over the break, let me know what Ro and Meka think and we'll work out something. Aside from that though if you need me for anything, you know where to find me, even if its just to talk or whatever.

I'm fine now, even if my mom seems convinced otherwise. I got lots and lots of sleep, and they've been waiting on me hand-and-foot, so I'm sure I'll be back to normal in no time. :) No worries. I didn't mean to scare you guys, I wish I could have given you a warning or something, but such is the nature of it all.. by the time I know what's going on, it's way too late.

Driving me nuts, by the way, is the understatement of the century. She's already booked the whole next week off of work, even though it'll be Christmas in like, two weeks. I told her I'd be okay on my own, plus Ella is gunna be home, but she's not taking 'no' for an answer. I was a little bit shaky getting out of bed this morning to take a shower, and I think she was ready to hose me down and sponge bath me right there and then if I didn't protest it.

It was nice to talk, like.. really talk. You're the first person I told, not even Ella knows.. which is really bad, because I'm harping on her for keeping stuff from me. Hypocritical, huh? I just didn't think it mattered. It felt good to get it off of my chest. I'm glad you're not mad, and we'll talk more when you come to visit, okay? I had something else I wanted to-

Asking about me in a good way or a bad way? I didn't ask Ella what I did, but I guess it must have been pretty bad, because she seems even more upset than usual now. And the teachers told my parents everything that happened I think, but when I asked about it, my mom just cried and my dad said not to worry about it. Which, obviously, is easy for them to say.

Meka says she's up for whenever you guys want, so once I hear from Ro, I'll just figure out something from there. :]

It's okay, I kinda had a feeling something was wrong, the way you grabbed my hand but by the time I though anything of it and turned you were already slipping to the ground. I'm sorry I couldn't have I don't know caught you better or something? You hit the ground pretty hard. It just all happened so suddenly.

It might not be all the bad having your mom home for a while, our mom we'll probably be working almost right up till Christmas, all the shopping, the tree everything will probably be rushed. You'll have time to get some shopping done and stuff, that's if she lets you out of bed that is. Seriously though just give her time, parents worry but they'll relax once they see that you're okay and everything.

Really, you didn't tell Ella? I thought you two told each other everything, knowing that, it means even more to me that you thought you could open up like that. I definitely want to talk more when we see each other, maybe we could hang out sometime over break just the two of us? I obviously still want to get together with Ro and Meka and them for a girls night but that probably wouldn't be the best time for us to actually talk. It is kind of hypocritical i guess but she has been acting strange lately, I don't know if that's related to what she's been keeping from you or not though. You're right to be concerned if its having an effect on her. Things were weird between us for awhile after the summer but they weren't necessarily bad, so i guess it depends on what she's keeping from you.

Don't worry about, mostly people were just concerned about how you were doing, and were saying like they really wished you couldn't been at the concert. Others were talking about what they heard from so and so what happened to you, people are always going to gossip (about everything and anything) You know what some of the morons we go to school with are like?

Don't feel bad, hun. There isn't anything anybody can really do. Even Ella can't tell well enough to catch me or do anything until it's already happening.. not that she's needed to for a long time. I guess I'm lucky she never forgot all the proper steps, or then I might actually be in trouble. It wouldn't be the first time she's practically saved my life while I'm down for the count.

I need her to relax now. I'm pretty lucky that most of my shopping was done while we were in school, because I have a feeling she isn't going to let me out of bed to do anymore of it.. I don't even know if she's gunna let me go back to class in two weeks without a fight. I'm hoping she'll calm down, but I won't hold my breath on it.

I didn't know how to tell her. I still don't, but I guess I'll have to eventually.. maybe I can convince her to do a trade off for whatever she seems to be bottling up on me. I dunno. It's like, private in a different way, it's like.. I don't think she wouldn't accept me, I just don't know if she'd understand. Which is probably wrong, because Ella is the most understanding person I know. Being unable to relate is probably a better way to word it. I knew I could tell you because you obviously could relate. And I felt I owed you after I.. acted like a total asshole to you like that. Which, for the hundredth time, I am sorry for, I just..

It's like I want it, but I don't. I want it, but I don't. I'm fine, but I'm not. And none of it matters, but it all does. I'm just kind of a mess, and you.. really, really don't want to get involved. Trust me, okay?

I definitely think we should get together. If I can convince mum to even let me go, I could come over. Or you could come here, but she might make you wear a decontamination suit or something.

Funny, Meka and I were just talking about some of the morons we go to school with too. Great minds think alike?

I know I've told you this before but you're so lucky to have a sister like Ella. You should have seen her, it was like you were barely even on the floor and she was there to help. Or at least it seemed that quick, I was just trying not to panic and she was just so serious and calm (lol it was almost weird seeing her like that)

You know you don't have to tell her if you're not ready? I didn't even tell Tatum until I thought I really knew, and she had already gone through it on her own. I knew she wouldn't judge or care but still I had to make sure that I was okay with it first before I could tell anyone. You're obviously still confused about everything, which is why i assume you choose to tell me about Quinn? So don't rush things. If you're just trying to figure everything out right now, just let yourself figure it out, it's kind of something you need to do on your own (as much as I'd like to say I wanna help). I know getting things off your chest feels good, but telling people, even Ella probably won't help all that much (especially if she's kinda wierd about it.. not that she will be but you know what I mean)

I don't think you're a mess, believe me that's the last thing I think. I know what you're going through, I remember the first time I kissed a girl, I don't even remember how it happened, it just did and afterward I felt ashamed and strange and I didn't want to tell anyone, for a long time (not even you or Rowan or Meka, nobody), for almost a year. But overtime I felt less strange and more confident. I don't it's hard to explain, I just knew. I could picture myself kissing other girls and doing more and when I thought about it it just seemed natural, no different then with a boy. Sorry that was really rambled and probably didn't help at all, it's just hard to explain in words. I hope that made some kind of sense though, if not sorry again and we'll definitely talk more when we see each other. I'll definitely come there if she won't let you leave that's no problem as long as I get to see you.


Love,
Sera


PS: You better be able to go back to school after break, I need my favorite study buddy:) and glee will hopefully be back on tooXDD

Unfortunately, I guess I've given her a lot of times to practice.. lol.. she was always a lot more mature than me, even if people don't believe it. I don't know if I'd be strong enough to handle things like her, if our roles were ever reversed, it's kind of weird..

I think not having words for it about sums it all up. It's just.. like, I know it's normal, lots of people are doing it, and people are even beginning to accept it. I'm not ashamed, it's not even like that, I just don't.. know if it's what I pictured for me. When I was a kid, I always wanted to play house, I wanted to get married, and I've always wanted someone to be with forever, and I guess I just..

I don't know. Never considered the fact that I don't care if it's a boyfriend or not? I don't know how else to explain it. I'm like, still waking up to this realization that I just want love, and I don't care about all of the details. I'm just still sort of.. adjusting. I guess.

That's stupid, sorry.

Its not stupid at all, i get it.

It wasn't something I pictured for myself either, like ever. Honestly I still don't know if it is. All I know is that I like the feeling of being with a girl and that I like you. I figure I'll figure out the rest as I grow up. Which is hard for me to admit, since we both know I like to act like I have everything figured out.
