"CATHERINE MONROE! Get down from there!" CLAUDIA MONROE yells at her daughter.
"Ok mother!" CATHERINE MONROE says sarcastically, rolling her eyes. She was secretly smoking a cigarette on the roof of her new house.
She quickly stubbed her cigarette out when she heard foot steps walk through her bedroom.
"What are you doing out here, Kate?" Her father JAMES MONROEask "drowning in my sorrows." Catherine mutters.
"You've only been fourteen for a few hours and your already grumpy?" He says.
"Exactly." Catherine couldn't help but roll her eye at her father and smiled slightly when he left her room.
She crawled into her room from her window and walked to her desk that was full of candles, makeup, books, bras, panties, etc. Anything you could imagine really.
Kate love for music was strong, she especially loved Elvis Presley and she even gotten to see him in July of 1959 when he came to Paris.
So when Kate opened her one of her many suitcases and saw most of her records all cracked or crushed into peace's she literally screamed.

SINCE it was her birthday and she had received some money for her grandparents and parents (that were in English pounds) , she took some of that and went to buy herself some new records.
After getting some bad directions from her father and then having to ask a few people around where it was, she finally found the record shop.
Her knee high boots clicked against the hardwood ground of the shop as she looked around the shop.
After Kate had found everything she needed and wanted she went to go and pay.
"Hello dear." The man behind the desk says "Bon-hello." Kate cut herself off before she accidentally said bonjour.
"That's will be eight pounds." He says and Kate couldn't help but look down at the money in her hands confused "here I'll help you." He offers taking the right amount of money out of her palm.
"Thank you." She smiles "your welcome, have a good day." He says.
She took her records and stepped out the shop and she pulled her fur coat tighter around her.
She stopped and reach into her black leather shoulder bag and pulled a pack of cigarettes out and her lighter, she lit her cigarette and inhaled.
I looked around her and then at the other side of the road she saw a group of boys and few girls.
"Oi Macca! Come on we haven't got all day!" A Liverpudlian accent shouts and I look to see a doe eyed boy staring directly at me.
'Macca? What sort of name is that?' She asked herself.

"KATIE!" Catherine's younger sister JEÁNETTE MONROE squeals.
"Bonjour dear!" Kate smiles kissing the four years old cheek.
"Where is Nadinè?" She ask her "in me and hers bedroom." She smiles cheekily.
"Kate, the neighbour across the street has invited us over for dinner, so go get ready or you could stay in what your wearing." Her father says looking at her red blouse and black skirt.
"Alright." She mumble walking up the stairs to her bedroom.
She changed into a black pleated skirt, a white frilled cuff lace blouse, black stockings and her knee high boots. She left her hair down like usual and only put a small amount of mascara on.
She walked downstairs and saw her family all waiting for her, her ten year old sister NADINÈ MONROE, who wasn't happy at all that they had moved Liverpool, passed Kates fur coat over to her.
"Thank you." Kate smiles.
The family walked across the street and Claudia knock on the front door and a older lady with brown hair and blue eyes opened the door.
"Hello! Come in, you must be freezing." She says "this is my nephew John." She introduces a handsome looking boy.
"You must be Nadine, such a pretty girl." Mimi says looking at Nadine who look shyly at the floor "well, I've already met you Jeanette and this must be Catherine." She smiles looking at her.
Kate looked around the hall way and saw a small cat ornament, she looked up for the ornaments when Mimi said "John why don't you take Catherine up to your room." She says making Kate feel some what awkward.
"why did you move to good old Liddypool?" JOHN LENNON asks Kate "I'm not really sure." Kate says honestly, she really did have no clue.
"I mean my dad grew up here, but none of his family live here anymore." She says.
"Oh! You've got Elvis!" She says "yeah, you like him?" John ask Kate.
"I love him, Elvis Presley is gorgeous." Kate says admiring the record cover of his face.
"Would you like me to put it on, Catherine?" He asks "oh yes." Kate says "and call me Kate."
"Is that your girlfriend?" She asks looking at a picture of a pretty blonde girl "yeah, that's Cynthia, Cyn." He says "she really pretty." Kate says.
"Yeah she is, if you want you could meet her, she come here whenever Mimi isn't around which is almost every day." He says "I would love to meet her." Kate smiles happily.

KATE had actually become quite good friend with John in the small amount of time they had spent together. He was very charming and funny.
Now that Kate was lying in her bed in her pink night dress, she had a feeling she was going to enjoy Liverpool a lot more than she thought she was.
Today had been quite fun for her, it was her birthday -even though it didn't feel like it-, she learnt where the closet record shop was and she had made a new friend who also happens to be six years older than her.
Out of all her friends back home in Paris, she was definitely the most outgoing, a party animal.
At the age of thirteen she had stumbled into her house drunk, she had lost her virginity at thirteen as well and begun smoking.
Let's juts say a lot had happen when she was thirteen, but one thing that could be confirmed is that she acted a lot older than she was.
