E-Harmony Suprise
Chapter One
I slide into the small rolling computer chair that sits in my computer/junk room. I keep all my few belongings that I don't know where to put in this room, and it is a fair sized 2nd bedroom. Right now it consists of boxes with my stuff all packed up. Now that I'm done this course I can head back home, and I have a flight booked for 1 week from now.
I type in my password and create myself an account on e-harmony. It asks me a lot of lot of questions, and I say I live in Ireland which is where my parents and family live. I fill in the rest of the questions and then go lay in my bed across the hallway.
Is this the right thing to do? What if I get matched with some creeper that can't get a date because he's such a stalker?....

"Sweetheart! Welcome home!" My mother screeches at me from across the airport. she hobbles over on her tall heels. Shes very short and pretty for her age with wavy black hair and brilliant green eyes. "We missed you so much." She kisses me on the cheek and gives me a big hug. "Thanks mum. I missed you too." I say returning the hug.
My father walks over to me. "Welcome home Trix." He takes my bags from me and gives me a smile. He has the best smile, his eyes sparkle and the edges crinkle.You can always tell if hes really smiling or just faking. "Hello Dad." I smile, and detach myself from my clinging mother to give my father a hug. His warm hands rub my back and my mother breaks the father daughter moment with a loud "How was Canada?" My father starts walking towards the car as I talk about the friends I made and about the course.
"I'm glad you had fun but we're happy that your home!"As Dad puts my bags into the trunk, Mom fusses over me and gives me more hugs. I roll my eyes at dad and he grins, but it makes mom shut up and get into the car.We begin the short drive home.
When we pull into the driveway, I take one step onto the driveway and then I'm bombarded wth more hugs. "Trixie! Trixie!" My little 5 year old brother Marc yells jumping up and down. I hear little feet behind me. "WIXIE WIXIE!" My sister yells. "Hai hun!"
