The Child of The Moon

Celeste

"Urggh, Mum! I need new clothes, I'm 16 for goodness sake!" I yelled down the stairs, I simply don't have ANYTHING to wear for the first day back of school!

"Celeste, you know you have two wardrobes full of designer clothes, surely you can find something to wear, anyway there's still two days till school starts and it's just the winter holidays, why are you worrying about clothes now?" asked Mum as she came up the stairs.

"I am most likely to wake up late on Monday and tomorrow I'll be busy!" I told her, still throwing clothes about trying to find the perfect outfit.

"What do you mean you'll be busy? Tomorrow's Sunday, we're not doing anything" said Mum, doesn't she know that just because she doesn't have a life does not mean that I don't?

"Mum, I'll be at the mall with my mates, remember? I'm going out with them to the cinema afterwards as well so I need you to give some money, please" I begged, I was desperate for new clothes.

"Fine, but only £70. Now clean this up!" she said as she looked around at my messy room.

. . . . .

On Sunday I went shopping and bought the cutest top and the latest designer jeans and shoes all for £60! I had a tenner left over so I went to the movies with my mates, Summer and Kim. We had the best time, we saw the sequel to Divergent, Insurgent, that I've been dying to see.

After the movie we walked home with five billion shopping bags on our arms. Kim turned down the road at the bus stop so it was only me and Summer, until, a few streets later, Summer left as well. That's the annoying thing about living on the other side of town.

I caught the bus to Gridlock road which was a few streets away from my house, but there were no other bus stops so I had to get off and walk the rest of the way. By now the sun was setting and I was walking into the abandoned part of town.

I walked past the old park, deserted except for one girl. She was creepy, and I mean creepy, it was almost as if she was waiting for someone. The young girl had long blonde hair curling down to her waist and large, dark blue eyes which stared at me with a deep intensity.

I started to feel sleepy so I stopped looking at the girl, I didn't even realise I had stopped to stare into her eyes, and just continued walking.
