Intro -
Hi! My name is Lauren. I guess I should start by telling you a little bit about me.
Well, I am 14 years old, and my friends tell me that I'm beautiful. Normally I would say they're being kind, but the fact that boys literally fall at my feet at school would seem to support their judgement.
I have long blonde hair and green eyes. I'm very sporty and I love gymnastics and swimming as well.
(I don't usually tell the guys I date this, but I do martial arts - I'm not sure what my dates would think if they knew I could beat them up

There is one guy I know who is unaffected by my good looks. His name is Alex. He's one of my closest friends, and has been since childhood. He's always supported me and was literally the only guy who supports my sporty behaviour. He has come to see me in every competition, be it football, gymnastics or judo. As a result of this, and also because he has helped me get over every single date that went bad, comforting me when my heart's been broken, I love him as much as a girl can love a friend. Sometimes I wonder if I should ask him out - all my friends urge me to. They tell me he's too nice and too cute to be available for long. But I think if we had a relationship that went bad, and it ruined our friendship, my heart would properly break.
And so I leave it.
However, recently it has become known to me that Alex is concealing something from me. I have recently got some really sweet love tokens from a secret admirer, like a box of choclates in my schoolbag, and a beautiful necklace in my locker. I have heard Alex knows ho this admirer is, but he won't tell me.
So I gathered two of my girlfriends and hatched a plot.
