JUST SAYING THIS IS A SHORT SHITTY UNEDITED FILLER CHAPTER :P xox.

___________

It's been a week since my sister's funeral, my break-up with Lucas and the diamond ring's appearance.

A break-up and a proposal waiting to happen was just what I needed after my sister's death.

Why would he leave me if he were going to propose to me? God, I wish Lisa was here, she'd know exactly what to say and to do.

I am currently in the restrooms at the airport staring into the mirror, not having a clue who the girl in the reflection is. Dull eyes and my skin no longer sun kissed. I look broken.

I wipe away a falling tear and remove my eyes from the mirror and proceed out of the restroom and wait in line to board my plane.

I smile at the lady as I give her my boarding ticket. She notices my appalling broken features and smiles sympathetically at me. I must have 'I've lost everything' written across my forehead. She hands me back my boarding ticket and I proceed towards the plane.

Twenty-six hours later I arrive in my new apartment or flat in the heart of London. Believe me, I didn't expect to be living in the heart of London from now on.

"Just leave them there, thank you." I say to the kind man who carried all my bags up from the lobby even though I told him I would be fine on my own.

"Welcome to London." He nods his head at me and leaves my room, shutting the door behind him

I walk out on to my balcony letting the cold England weather engulf me. I am definitely not use to the shivering weather here but it's different, a nice different.

Lisa would be so proud of me if she could see me here right now. If she were alive I would send her a picture of the breathtaking view I have in front of me. But since I can't I am hoping she is watching me from above.

I walk back inside, wrapping my two layers of jackets around me body tightly as I search in my bag for my schedule. Finally finding it, I see that I am scheduled to have a meeting tomorrow morning at 7. Great, I say to myself. I am jetlagged as hell and they want to meet me at 7 in the morning.

"You must be Amelia Horton." A blond approaches me in a white blouse and a black high waist shirt. "God you're even more beautiful in person." I could listen to her British accent all day.

"Thank you." I blush. "You are?"

"You're personal assistant, I'm Cindy." She beams at me

"Personal assistant?" I gasp.

"Yes, you're an actress darling, this is what happens."

"I'm not yet an actress." I laugh. "We haven't even begun the show."

"Well when we do, welcome to you're new life where everyone will know who you are." She smiles and holds her clipboard up to her chest tightly. "Come on, let me introduce to the cast and crew."

She escorts me to the stage door where there are cameras and lights everywhere. This all like a dream come true, I just wish I could share this all with Lisa.

"This is Nadine, she will be playing the part of Ella." Cindy introduces me to a tall brunette. She looks a lot like me only with blue ocean eyes, like Lisa.

"Oh my god, I have been so excited to meet you, your audition tape was amazing!" She compliments and I am caught off guard. Did everyone see my audition tape or something?

"Hi, I'm Ed and I'll be playing the part of Henry." He smirks at me. His beauty takes me aback. Full lips, dreamy brown eyes, chiseled jawline, defined cheekbones. He was picture perfect.

"Hi." I smile as Ed and I shake hands.

After meeting everyone and getting a tour of the set, Nadine has insisted on taking me out for a coffee and giving me a small tour of London.

"So what's your family like?" She asks as we hop off the London eye. I clench my coat tighter around my shivering body as my teeth chatter. I have gone from Australian weather to England weather, I am no way use to this.

"My family?" I ask. I'm not even sure I have a family anymore; I ruined that myself by pushing them away.

"Yea..."

"My family is like any other family." I lie with a small chuckle and Nadine raises her brow at me.

"No family is the same," She says and I mentally agree. "At least tell me about your life."

I look at Nadine wondering whether I want her to know and whether I want to talk about my past. I came to London to begin again, to forget about Australia and everyone. If I talk about what my life was, it's just reopening my wounds all over again.

The thing is I don't want anyone to know about my parents, Nate, Lisa and Robert. Not even Lucas.

"Did you have siblings?" Nadine snaps me out of my thoughts.

I bite my lip before answering, "No, I'm an only child."

Well damn Amelia. Alright so it has been 2 months since i updated and I'm sorry about that. I hope everyone had a lovely Easter!

So have you ever been thinking about your book and it's storyline and how it slightly can change when you write each chapter??? Yea, well that has currently happened with me so the name of this book may change...I am not sure. But this book isnt a cute little story, it never was from the beginning, ya'll only thought it was but it's actually got a hint of thriller to it. Things aren't what they seem so its going to get a little juicy soon :D Everything will change ;)

Love you. xox
