The house is huge! It's got a pool and awesome lights and everything!
"Like it?" Dad smirks, joining me out the back on the steps.
"It's awesome. Thanks dad." I hug him and he chuckles softly.
"It's ok Emily. Thought you might want these." He hands me my notebooks and guitar.
I smile at him. "Thanks."
"Got a note saying neighbours are coming round at about three tomorrow. Well, they asked and I called them saying yes." Dad says and I nod.
"Mkay. I'll Skype Alex later." I take my guitar out of its case and stroke the dark wood.
"Try to go to bed before midnight, k?" Dad grins before going back inside.
I pull my notebooks towards me and play a few songs before going to my newest song that I wrote in the car.
Finding the melody, I experiment with some chords before letting my fingers find the right ones.
Once I've found the right chords I start to sing."Everyone has gone, left me behind
Feel like I'm going crazy, losing my mind
Stuck in these crowded places
Nowhere to go, no more spaces
The distance between us, is so unreal
When will I ever begin to heal?
Is it normal of me, to hide in the shadows?
Where everything's dark
Drowning in emotions
I feel a storm coming closer
Out of everything I had
I just had to lose them
Everything that I ever had
Now begins to make me mad
But when everything real
Seems to disappear, I'm here
Everything that I ever had
Now begins to make me mad
But when everything visible
Has disappeared, I'm here
I've got no one's shoulder to cry on
Or anyone's hand to hold onto
I've got an empty heart, been torn apart
Just like the rest of me
Drowning in emotions
I feel a storm coming closer
Out of everything I had
I just had to lose them
Everything that I ever had
Now begins to make me mad
But when everything real
Seems to disappear, I'm here
Everything that I ever had
Now begins to make me mad
But when everything visible
Has disappeared, I'm here
Everyone has gone, left me behind
Feel like I'm going crazy, losing my mind
Stuck in these crowded places
Nowhere to go, no more spaces
The distance between us, is so unreal
When will I ever begin to heal?
Is it normal of me, to hide in the shadows?
Where everything's dark
Everything that I ever had
Now begins to make me mad
But when everything real
Seems to disappear, I'm here
Everything that I ever had
Now begins to make me mad
But when everything visible
Has disappeared, I'm here."
"Dude! Did you hear that?" I hear someone say in a hushed voice.
Someone else laughs and says something I can't hear.
They're next door, and I wander who's outside at this time?!
Getting up, I creep over to the fence separating the gardens.
"Sh. I think she heard you." A boy's voice comes.
Silence for a minute. "I think we're good." The other laughs.
"Boys! Come in, you've still got a bit of writing to do!" A man calls and I hear some scrambling before slamming doors.
Silence.
Did they hear my singing? Damn I though I could keep it a secret...

Hey! Okay, so I may or may not have under estimated the amount of work this will take to write, especially when I've got another on this site as well... And school starts tomorrow and I'm choosing my options and all that...
I'm sorry to say that I won't be able to update as often because of this, though I'm not going to stop completely!!
