**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Tue May 19, 2009 7:01 am

Tessa said nothing as her nerves took over.

**Rachel Orton** Tue May 19, 2009 3:49 pm

"You can talk, Katie's not going to bite. Trust me." Rachel said with a small smile.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Wed May 20, 2009 7:00 am

"I just get nervous meeting new people." Tessa told

**Katie Orton** Wed May 20, 2009 3:42 pm

"That's understandable. You will get used to new people soon, Rachel's very outgoing." Katie said.

"I'm friends with almost all of the people in my school, dad doesn't even know I'm friends with a couple seniors. Katie's cool though." Rachel said.

"As long as they stay friends and you don't end up a teenage mother I'm good." Katie said.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Thu May 21, 2009 7:04 am

Tessa smiled.

"You sound like my best friend's mom." Tessa said.

**Katie Orton** Thu May 21, 2009 3:20 pm

Katie smiled.

"Who's your best friend's mom?" Katie asked.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Fri May 22, 2009 6:58 am

"Her name was Rosemary." Tessa said.

**Katie Orton** Fri May 22, 2009 11:41 am

Katie nodded.

"So where are you girls going? The mall?" Katie asked as she put on her sunglasses because of the sun.

"Yeah." Rachel said with a smile.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Tue May 26, 2009 6:59 am

Tessa smiled as she flipped open her phone to glance at her boyfriend on the background.

**Rachel Orton** Tue May 26, 2009 5:10 pm

Rachel looked over and saw the background.

"Who's he?" Rachel asked with a smile.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Wed May 27, 2009 7:00 am

"My boyfriend, his name is Brett." Tessa said.

**Rachel Orton** Wed May 27, 2009 11:57 am

"He's cute, I have a boyfriend too. He's a football player at my school." Rachel said.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Wed May 27, 2009 1:17 pm

"Brett played soccer at my old school." Tessa said.

**Rachel Orton** Wed May 27, 2009 3:21 pm

"That's cool, my boyfriend's name is Tyler. If you decide to come over my house or decide to live with us you most likely will see him, I invite him over a lot." Rachel said.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Thu May 28, 2009 7:10 am

"I'm gonna go back to live with my mom soon." Tessa told.

**Rachel Orton** Thu May 28, 2009 9:08 pm

"Alright, you can still come over then." Rachel said.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Fri May 29, 2009 6:58 am

"Sounds great." Tessa smiled.

**Rachel Orton** Fri May 29, 2009 11:51 am

"You know you're pretty cool. Soon I think we're going to be half sisters and best friends." Rachel said with a smile.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Fri May 29, 2009 1:23 pm

Tessa smiled.

"I agree." Tessa spoke.

**Katie Orton** Fri May 29, 2009 3:40 pm

Katie stopped in front of the mall.

"Alright, you two have fun. Call me when you want me to pick you up." Katie said.

"Okay, thanks Katie." Rachel said.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Sat May 30, 2009 10:56 pm

Tessa smiled.

"Thanks." Tessa spoke.

**Katie Orton** Sat May 30, 2009 10:59 pm

"You're welcome, you girls have fun." Katie said.

Rachel got out of the car with Tessa then they walked into the mall.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Sat May 30, 2009 11:04 pm

"It's been a long time since I went shopping." Tessa said.

**Rachel Orton** Sat May 30, 2009 11:06 pm

"Really? I just went two days ago." Rachel said with a chuckle.

**Tessa Ray Hickenbottom** Sat May 30, 2009 11:30 pm

"Not me, when Teresa was alive I was lucky if I went once a year." Tessa told.
