                      Chapter one

 If you were suprised by the things your "freinds" had to say, would you still be freinds with them?

 I stuided her eyes carefully as she took her first look into the room. What I was expeting to be a look of disgust and pure hatered, came out to a glimmering smileing sam.

 " Oh, Jenna! It's so great your folks invited me to stay over here, while my family goes on there vaction. There such vacation hogs! It seem's like all they want to do is spend a cheerfull summer away in god know's where, and not even careing about me!" She paused to huff a breath, and carrired on. " Anyway's, I know your such a good sister, I can always count on you." She gave me a smile, her cheecks showing the tinyist but of blush. I gave her back a awkward smile, the right half of my pull off smile slumping to the left side.

 Sam flatened her ears and gave me a confused look. " What is is Jenna? Is something wrong? Was it something I said?" She bit her lower lip, worry and something else I could'nt read in her eyes. " Oh no no! I replied. Dissmassing my cocky smile and replaceing a full one. " Are you sure? Beacuse if I said something that hurt your lil' feelings, you should let me know...now-" I cut her off. " I'm fine, nothing you said ripped at my pride, know let's go to your room and get you selted." She obeyed, and me leading the ways, decended to her room.

  " Woah..." She said takeing a step back. We reached her room, and her eye's streached wide. I leaped onto a guestbed lineing the wall, and locked my gaze with her's. " So, do you want your self to sleep on the guestbed or on the-" "Guest bed will be fine she murmed, not letting me finish. " Now, where are your-" "Things?" She replied. I nodded. "Right behind me, she moved out of my way and I leaped off the bed and clamped her belongings in my mouth.

  " I`ll lay them on the bed, and I`ll leave you to put the thing's away, if..that's OK with you?" She nodded and said. " Hey, umm, after Im done, would you mind if I could get a tour of this place?" "Yeah sure, I could even tour you around myself." I said as I skidded out of the room, sne smiled and I dragged myself out the front door.

    I traced my footing to the boiler room, I hurried in and sat down behind  Dixey. " But, as I was saying, she will never find true loe if she acts like that..."  " Dixie dont, she is-" I scooted closer, dixie hadn't seen me yet, but Sylive squinted at me behind her shimmering brown coat.

"Dixie! Jen-ay in the boil-ay!" Dixie whipped around, her little body sqruching togather, she faced me with oval shape eyes. " Jenna, what did you hear?" " Nothing acutly...What were you two talking about?" Dixie exchanged a worried gaze with Sylive. "Should we tell her?" Dixie whipered. " I don't know..." Sylive said, eyeing me with a "you know it all' look. 

 " I`ll take anything, shoot." I said, imapacting my sentance by sitting down. Sylive sighed and looked the other way, laveing Dixie to tell the story.

 " Ok, so we allready know about your sister being here....!" Dixie said, shiffting her delicate feet.

"Oh". I said. What a suprize, 2 gossip girls know of a new arrival.

" Well, we've put our head's togather and we gathered some deatils about your sister. Well, first off, in her home town she was known to flip off guy's, by dateing them first and well,...kills....them..."

" WHAT!?" I yelled. Apaled by what dixie chose to say to me.

 " That's not all," Dixie said, dipping her head towrds me.

" One of her freinds tried on one of her "precious" studded coller's, and sam got on her about it and stole everything that her freind had, maeking her freinds life misseribale, and also sam did this recently!- ( She made her freind get framed for getting in trouble by knocking down all the items in her house worth meaning and digging her owner's ring in the garden's dirt."

" Oh yeah right. Way to go Dixie! You and sylive are allways the one's to gossip and hurt people's feelings! You guys are supposed to be my freinds? Not anymore! I know you guys are lieing, you won't see much of me with you anymore!"

"Jen, it's not what you think!" Sylive shouted paceing over to me.

" Oh yes, I know what I`m thinking!!!" I said, my face becomeing red.

I whipped around and rushed out the door, storming down the Nome alwways, tears rolling down my face. It blurred my vison, and I almost ran into countless animal and objects.

 When I finnaly reached my house my checks were stained with tears.

 I escoretd my self to Sam's room, I must of starlted her beacuse she jumped up and etched out a little cry from her mouth.

 " I was just talking to Dixie and Sylive, and they said som things about you....Can I talk to you about them?"

"Oh, yeah sure." She leaped off the bed and sat next to me on the floor.

 " Well, they said some mean things about you..." I confessed.

"Really what?" Sam said, her brown eyes shimmering from the light.

 " Well, for one, when I came in there they looked disgusted. I don't know why, but when they both finnaly saw me, Dixi blurted out, what she called "the truth". She said, that you were known to flip off guys; then...kill them." I could'nt see sam's reaction beacuse my head was bent down, but I could sense she was mad.

 " Then," I gulped not wanting to go on, but wanting to blurt the whole thing out to my sister. " One of your freinds tried on one of your collers, you got really mad so you snuck into your freinds house, knocked down anything valuble, then stealing her owner's ring, and burying it in the garden." I squeezed my eyes tight. Not knowing if a hurricane of meaanness would come my way, or a fistfull of shock. When I finnaly opened my eyes she wan't stareing at me, the other way, towrds the window acutly. But when I heard her talk, it was chocked with sadness.

   " Jenna, umm, I think you should leave the room now." She said in almost a harsh voice.

I dipped my head. " It's understand....I`ll take you on a tore tommorow then..." I said, backing out of the room. When I changed my direction to go the other way, the door slammed so loud, it made me whimper.

 Oh lord, what have I done? 

As I turned the corner, in the direction of sam's room, I could hear faint crying...

                       Chapter two

       If a new arrival shows up, would it hurt to interduce, or would eyes settle on someone else?    

 The rough pant's of my breath grew louder as I skidded corrners and allyways. My bandana flapped in the breeze, then, flipping into my face, covering my eyes from seeing.

 Trying to get it off, my paws reached up, and I tumbeld down, landing directily "SMACK" into someone. " Ecxuse, excuse, m-me-" I stuttred as I shrugged off the biter snow hovering on my back like a blanket. " It's no problem at all." A handsome voice replied. I looked up to find a handsome tan husky smileing down on me. " In, fact," He said, helping to pull me up. " I saw you fall down that hill...If I were you I would probally have ended up right in this postion now!" I laughed and realizeing I was blushing, hid it quickly. " Oh, pardon me. Ecxuse me for not interducing myself. 'Name's Nick, I live in that house over there-" He guestred with his tail to a small cottage on the brink of a deserted snowy road. 

       "Oh," I said. I coul'dnt take my eye's off the husky. His head was turned, and I said: " Well, my name is Jenna. I guess I live a few blocks away from here..." I guestered with my tail too, my sassyness pulling off to be shyness afterwords. I looked down, blush smirking at my face once more. Nick spoke, bending his head to my leval. " Would you mind if I show my owner's place? My owner's love dogs, in fact he has a sled team, I  am just a rookie this year, but , he call's me the best of the best." I smiled and I said back. " I would be delighed to." 

    I was suprised by how fast he was. I had to to take 2 breaks, and hehad to wait up for me, about a thousand times. When we finnaly reached his home it felt like I had ran on a huge race track. "Woo-wee." I breathed.
