Amelia Gold had a lot of mixed feelings about living with her uncle Matthew or when they were getting along Matt. Her parents died when she was little so she moved in with her only relative, her fathers brother. Amelia climbed out of her bed in her room. Matthew didn't want her living with him because he didn't think he could take care of her. It was her fathers final wish that they would live together so neither of them would be alone.

Amelia slept in a large storage area in the basement. There were no windows so she painted whatever she wanted to look at. She had multiple jobs after school and on the weekends to fill her time so she didn't have to work in his pawn shop. He was very formal around everyone but he relaxed a bit when it was just them.

"Lia come on, you have to work in one hour!" Her uncle from the Above. Amelia divided the shop/house into parts. The Above was the shop and his living area above the shop. Then there was the Below. The Below was her bedroom and the only place she really got to be herself. "Amelia Elizabeth Gold hurry up!"

"Coming, just getting ready Matt!" She looked around the below for some clothes to wear to work. It was Saturday morning, so she was working at Granny's. Amelia walked to her closet and looked for something that looked nice. In the Below she mostly wore her paint splattered jeans and tee shirts. She found a light blue shirt with a pair of black pants. She brushed her shoulder length hair and walked to the Above.

Uncle Matthew was waiting for her at the top of the trap door that led to her bellow. "Morning!" She told him, giving him a peck on the cheek.

"You're in a good mood, what did you paint yesterday?" That was her favorite thing to do was to paint and sing.

"I gave myself a different window." She told him, grabbing a pop tart and her cup of coffee.

"Where is the Below now? Space? A tropical island? A concert?" He questions his niece. She swallowed her bite and said

"This week the Below is in a realm of books. Each window is a different adventure."

She sat down on the back table, next to the trap door under the rug. The Bellow was her secret with her uncle. "Can you tell me again why you and dad called it the Below?" Her father had named it that when he and Matthew were little kids.

"He wanted it to feel so cool it was below the freezing point." He told her. Kevin, his younger brother and him always wanted to be popular. They made a rock band together but neither of them could sing. Amelia's mother was their best friend so they asked her to sing for them. Both boys had liked her at the time but she favored Kevin.

The shop door opened and he went from cool rockstar-ish Matt to Mr. Gold. Amelia dusted off the crumbs from her breakfast and walked out to see Mayor Mills standing there. "Mr. Gold," She greeted the shop owner. The mayor turned to his niece. "Amelia, is my watch ready?"

"I'll get it for you." Amelia said, walking into the back to get it for her. She rummaged around the back looking for it. When Amelia found it she saw the two of them talking intently.
