le vie en rose

CHAPTER 1: flashback chapter

13 years ago flashback age 5

your P.O.V

All I could hear was my mother screaming as I was hiding in my wardrobe crying, I didn't know what was happening, all I can remember is one second my mummy was sitting on my bed with me brushing my hair and singing to me and the next moment my daddy running into my room telling me to hide in my wardrobe. I kept hearing shooting and screaming but I just kept my head tucked into my knees and my hands over my ears, then suddenly it went silent really silent and I though that it was finally over till the door of the wardrobe opened I didn't know what to do I just sat there frozen

"well, well look at this little creature how pathetic she looks, what to do with her"

I was still frozen it was true I was being so pathetic but I didn't know what else to do. The strange man held a gun to my head and was about to shoot I just closed my eyes and waited for it to be over, when a gun went off I was expecting the worse but.... nothing happened. I looked up I saw a guy holding a gun and the man who was about to kill me he was dead on my bedroom floor, I looked back to the man with tears on my face he kneeled down to my eye level to talk to me

"what happened here little one"

I just cried and told him what happened that this strange man killed my mummy and daddy and I was too pathetic to do anything about it. He stood up and extended his hand

"would you like to come and stay with me and I can teach you how to be stronger so this never happens again"

I nodded my head and took his hand, he lifted me into his arms and cover my eyes so i didn't see what happened to my parents and he too me back to what I assume is his house to look after me.

I miss my parents but I like my new life with my new father figure, he truly is the best

4 years later (still flashback) age 9

I was sat on the support beam in my dad's office drawing in my sketchbook and singing the song my mum use to sing to me when I was little, my dad was sat at his best working on something, he looked up at me and called me down, I jumped of the beam and landed on his desk with my legs on his char,

"what you thinking about river"

(river is his nickname for Ameila)

"I was thinking about when I was 5 and I first met you"

I said to him not looking at his face and playing with one of my pencils he got me.

"Look at me river"

he said lifting my chin so I was looking at time

"I am so proud with how far you have come not only with your fighting and weapon use but you're drawing and you are Turing into a very beautiful girl I am so very proud I might not be your real dad but I'm proud of the girl you have become, and you will always be like a daughter to me"

I gave my dad a hug I am so happy with my life I mean I miss my daddy and mommy eveyday, but my dad has given me a home and a family I love so much. I sat on my dads lap and draw a picture for his desk as he brushed my hair, my dad might be a tuff and strong man, but he always loves bruising my hair and watching me draw.

"I finished my drawing for your desk dad"

he smiled and took it from my little hands,

"that's amazing river hang on let me get a photo frame for it to go on my desk."

I smiled when he said that and started a new drawing. He sat back in his chair and started doing some work, and I sat in his lap and still drawing this is how i like to spend my time with my dad.

1 year later (still flashback) age 10

I was once again sat in my dad's office he had gone to do something, and he told me to wait for him to get back and if he was back late to go to bed and he will see me in the morning, It was getting late but i don't like going to bed when my dad is on a mission because I like to go to bed knowing my dad is going to be okay, I was once again working on a drawing and singing my mummy's song i always seem to be doing that. when the door suddenly opened, I saw my dad standing there with a small little smirk on his face,

"I knew you would still be awake river"

I ran into his arms and gave him a big hug I'm always so happy when he comes home safe.

"I have someone for you to meet, river"

he was crouching down so he was my level with his arm warped around me.

" You can come in now"

he said extended his other hand, a shy girl with blue hair walked in and stood next to him.

" This is jinx she is going to be living with us river, and jinx this is my daughter Amelia she will help you when i'm not here"

I smiled and gave her a little wave, but she looked down at her feet messing with her hands she looked sad like something bad happened I know that looks because that's how I looked the day my family died. I looked at my dad, and he gave me a look to say go help her I left my dads embrace and when over to her and gave her a hug

" hi I'm Amelia, but you can call me what ever you want I would like us to be best of friends".

She looked at me and smiled and then nodded her head, I looked at dad and asked her where she was sleeping and he said he was going to sleep in my room till he can get one sorted for her, I gave my dad a kiss on the cheek and took her hand to show her where to go. I heard my dad shout night girls before we both disappeared to my room. And from that day me and jinx became inseparable, and me jinx and dad became i cute little family.
