The Forest

Chapter 1

Lorraine P.O.V. age 7

"Lorraine...." said the voice that's been calling my name for since I could remember. I've figured out its coming from the forest. it keeps calling out for me. I don't understand but it feels right.. I've told my mom but she tells me its all in my imagination. I don't believe that. I think that there is something beyond that Forest.

*10 years later*
the sound of my alarm rings through my room before I shut it off. I roll out of bed and attempt to do something with my shoulder length curly hair. I decide to throw it in a puff and call it a day. after that I put on my clothes I set out last night after my shower and put them on (picture of Lorraine's outfit it above). today is the first day of school. I'm not too pleased but i wants to see my best friend Lorraine well its not like I don't see her everyday anyways. I'm the friend who always wants to go places, Skye is too but not too much. "Lorraine.." calls the forest which has become something I'm use to after about 15 years of my life. one day I'm going to check it out. I make my way down stairs and say hello to my Mom. my dad left when I was about 8 and said it was for the best. and that he's protecting us. I don't understand how that could possibly be protecting us. I've gotten over it though. I go outside and I get in my black Mercedes Benz. and take off to Skye's house because Monday I carpool. the school is just right around the corner from Skye's house but we've decided to walk on Friday's. "Heey Loorryy!!" she says all cheerfully. I love how cheerful she is.. we blast some Beyonce and sing the lyrics to our short ride to school. we go into the school and we are greeted by our friends. "hey Lory and sky! how was your summer?" "It was amazing" I said. I am so relived to be back in school though honestly. I love school all my teachers are young and they are very nice. I'm happy to be where I am. got my schedule over the summer so I make my way to my first class which is Literature. I loooove literature. I say my goodbyes to my friends and head down to my class. I walk in and greet my teacher Ms. Smith and take my seat. once everyone has come then we begin. We are reading a book about the Spanish war. the day rode by very quickly and that's how I like it. Skye was by my car waiting for me. "Hey sweet cheeks how was school?" she said. "It was greeeat!!" I said very happy. we got in and drove to my house and went up to my room.
