I was 1. SIXTEEN and I had an awful social life, I just didn't seem to fit in with the other 2. TEENAGERS and as for boys, it didn't look like I would ever go on a 3. DATE.

Then I saw an 4. ADVERT for the Internet chat room, the 4. ADVERT said I could meet boys from all over the 5. WORLD, I thought I had nothing to lose. The chat room was great, I could be 6. ANYONE I wanted to be and I could say whatever I wanted without 7. EMBARRASSING myself. I met lots of friends on the Internet and I felt that my life had never been 8. BETTER.

Then I received a 9. MESSAGE from a person called “prince charming, he asked me about my ASL. ASL means age, sex, location. I replied to him that it was sixteen, 10. FEMALE, London. He told me that he was also sixteen and that he liked football and rock music, he said that he was tall, 11. BLOND, brown-eyed and slim.

We chatted for hours everyday and we started 12. SENDING emails as well, I have never met a boy that I could talk to so 13. EASILY, so when he finally asked me to meet him, I agreed and we set a date for five pm that 14. SAME day.

I asked my sister Brenda to come with me and it's 15. LUCKY that I did. We had arranged to meet at a music shop, Brenda and I were 16. LOOKING at CDS when a middle-aged man approached me. "I'm prince charming" the man said. I couldn't 17. BELIEVE my eyes, instead of the gorgeous sixteen year old that I expected to meet, a man older than my 18. FATHER was staring at me, Brenda pulled my 19. ARM and we ran out of the shop. The man followed us but when he 20. SAW a police officer coming our way, he vanished.

When I got home I told my 21. PARENTS what It happened, they were furious with me for 22. MEETING someone from an internet chatroom.

I was so 23. HAPPY to be safe.
