Unamed Story

Ok so i was sitting in the car thinking what a lovely day... when i got this brill idea for a story... now i dont have a name so i shall just call it Unamed story....

The beginning of the End.
As my 21st birthday approached that dreaded feeling got worse. None of my older sisters had made it to their 22nd birthday single. It was a customary rule in our family that when a girl reached 21 she should be shown off like a prize horse. Well at least that's what my uncles and grandpa thought. My Dad even though he followed this stupid custom he allowed us to choose and didn't hold grand 21st birthday parties like some of my family did.

Anyways first of all let me introduce my self... My name is Ash... just Ash and yes i will be turning 21 in 2 days time. Now Willow, Hazel, Holly and Camellia had all arrived home to plan my birthday and what was known as a rite of passage. Since i was the youngest they had been fussing over me and had become over emotional... over the past few days i had taken to locking myself into one of the many bathrooms to escape the tears shed quite generously by my mother, sisters and sisters-in-law while the men in my family... well lets just say they were feeling quite proud of the fact that they were soon going to be able to threaten and tease yet another bloke. Did anyone think of maybe how i felt... Did they even ask if i was ready... NO they just assumed that i was ready and planned to dump a whole load of guys on me letting me pick. If only Zed was my boyfriend then i wouldn't be in this mess. Oh yeah i forgot to mention Zed... Zed is my friend lets just say my best friend... we are together always i mean when i go out he's with me and we do stuff together... see if he was my boyfriend i would skip this hassle and marry him like Holly did with her husband... she didn't have to go through all this since she and James were in love and had decided to get married... anyways i think this is going to be a laugh... i might just end up being the first North who will still be single on her 22nd birthday... I cant see myself finding Mr Right for me in one year...

Ok so thats it... when i feel like i will write some more...

I love the character you have written. Her emotions and thoughts come across which is usually swallowed and forgotten in a lot of stories.
