You Moved Me

Chapter 1

-------------------- -----

What satisfies a person in life? What truly makes them happy? Every morning since summer began, I ask myself these questions. Though the most difficult and the one question that I constantly repeat in my head is, "What is love? " Funny because Never Shout Never sings about this difficult question. Shit it's 6:00 am already and today is the first day of my junior year. Well it looks dark outside my window. Maybe I should skip school today. I toss and turn under my blue blankets. My feet feel numb and my hands are freezing cold. I blink twice before I get up to feel the blood run down towards my feet. I look around my small bedroom searching for a white purring animal. As I look around, I take a deep breathe to bring back those happy memories or the only memories I have that genuinely made me happy.

I remember when I had a little sister and we use to play in this room. Her name was Allison and together we painted this room the tone of a sort of sky blue color. We played hide and seek together but she was always better at it. She was always the better one at everything, but I wasn't jealous I just was admired her. When we had visitors they would always praise her and how cute she looked. While I was left behind feeling alone and unwanted. I tried to be like her but everyone ignored me but Allison would always laugh with me. Funny how she was the only one that praised me.

Pictures cover the left part of my room while the right side is left blank. I head towards my closet behind my small bed and I step on a piece of carpet that feels extremely soft than usual and "Ow", I yell. The fur ball under my foot begins to play with my foot. I pick him up and say, "Hey Marshmellow." I place him over my blankets and watch him curl into a ball under the covers. I love one color cats but Marshmellow is a white cat which is pretty awesome but I am jealous of his blue eyes. I walk into my closet and grab my school uniform.

I go to West Rose Highschool in Rosewood. My highschool is a poor public school and they still request us to wear uniform.

Thump. I hear glass shatter. I run downstairs into the kitchen and see my mother apologizing to herself while picking up the glass from the shattered plate. "Mom, are you okay. I can pick it up," I say while picking up the glass. "I'm, I'm fine sweetie. You shouldn't wake up so early. You know I come home late," she says in a soft voice. I squeeze the glass shard in my right hand. "Mom you need to stop working. You are in no condition and they are taking advantage of you," I yell. "And I also have a job already," I said while throwing the shattered plate away. "cough cough, you are right, but we need the money for school and for your clothes," Mom said with a raspy voice. "Mom, I don't care about the clothes and school I can pay for that with a new job I acquired," I whispered. I go into the kitchen cabinet grabbing a medicine and handing it to my mother. I pour sink water into a plastic cup and place it next to her on the table.

I live alone with my single mother, Clare Davis. She is beautiful, with a thin body and light brown long hair, but she's sick ever since dad left. I hate men to the core. My father is dead to me I hate him so much it's sickening. He made my mom suffer and then he left without a trace. Oh and because of his gambling problems he sold my sister to a fucking pervert. I cried when he was taking her "on a trip" my dad said. I knew how my father was and he left us poor and with debt. After that I never saw my sister or my father. It has been 10 years and I'm turning 17 in a week.

Mom takes the pill and says, "Thanks sweetie I love you" as she walks upstairs to her room. I love my mom and dad left a sick hardworking, caring mother behind how fucking stupid.

I run upstairs grab the school uniform and I run to the bathroom. I look at my bed and I still see Marshmellow sleeping. Lucky I think to myself. I put on some black underwear, zip up the patterned skirt, strap a nice pink bra on, button up the white collar shirt, and I put on the final touch that represents or school: the tan cardigan. I look into the mirror and brush my light brown hair. It's so annoying because it's wavy and I don't understand how my eyes are just plain brown. Whatever I say. I brush my teeth and grab my bag while putting on my long black socks. I go downstairs to get my shoes and I walk to school.

Where I live it's poor, but the neighborhood is in the middle portion on the social pyramid. My house is like 5 blocks away from the school. I walk by an alley and I hear a meow. I turn back to find a black kitten in a box. My eyes began to water it's like this kitten represents me entirely. It's eyes are bright blue and they are staring at me with emptiness like it's given up on people. "Your owner left you right and it was probably a man too. All men just abandon things they think they don't need," I say in a baby voice. I hear a chuckle from behind me. I turn to see a tall boy wearing the same uniform as me. I look up at him and I see his eyes are blue and his hair is long enough to do a hair flip and it's black. Just like the kitten I say in my head. He looks at me for awhile and I say, "Can you quit staring and mind your own business." He smiles and says, "Fine but just like the kitten you should give people a chance before you go and say that they are all the same." Who does he think he is saying something like that. I turn away from him and in a soft but cruel way I said, "You're all the same to me. I hate boys, I hate all of you." I feel myself blushing for taking out this anger I feel within me to a boy I don't even know. I turn back around and he is walking away. At the end of the alley he says, "You have an interesting personality. Give me a chance and you will see that you're actually wrong." He turns left heading to the school and I feel anger building up inside me, but instead I start laughing. "What the heck is his problem trying to sound so cool and bad ass," I say while holding the kitten. I place the kitten back to its box and put some crackers in there. "After school I will pick you up and you will live with a loving family because I want you to have a chance to actually experience true love from a kind family," I say while cleaning some tears from my eyes.

Time to head to school.
