 Excerpt

"It all started with a spell. A spell performed at midnight. Little did we know that our simple little love spell to bring the one true love of my best friend Adam to our little hick town would cause so much trouble.

But I’m getting ahead of myself. I suppose I should explain just a little about me and Adam.

Adam and I were best friends from the minute we met in the corner of the school yard of our elementary in Trinity Springs, Texas. The first day of kindergarten we bonded as our outsider status was firmly established in the minds of our classmates. We were the odd kids and our strangeness tossed us together. I was the weird little girl with roses tucked into her braids dressed all in black and he was the short little boy with red hair, freckles and bad allergies. I remember how small he was compared to me and I wondered if he was a leprechaun.

“Do you have a pot of gold?” I asked.

“No. Are you in the Addams family?” he countered.

“No.”

We stared at each other with a mix of disappointment and hope.

“Want to play on the swings?” I suggested.

“Sure.”

And that was when we became BFFs. We were always together after that day. We sat next to each other in class and at lunch. We played together on the playground and visited each other’s houses after school. Despite the scorn of our classmates, we were relatively happy. Sometimes the taunting words hurt, but we mostly ignored our tormentors. We were okay with our exile to the outer reaches of the playground.

The labels given so long ago stuck with us through the rest of elementary, junior high, and into high school. Even as juniors we heard the same insults that we did that first day of kindergarten.

“Witch!”

“Fag!”

Adam and I always smile when we hear the words that are meant to hurt.

Why?

Because they’re true."

Until next time,
