The day went well without my mother. I spent all the time with Sam..

It's 9:00 pm and I'm really scared. Yeah I'm a mature girl but at night, you don't know what will happen. It's where the demons hide maybe. Okay maybe not.. but that feeling at night isn't good for me and for my mind.

I lay down on my bed and listen to 'Night Changes' by One Direction. They aren't actually my favorite but the voices drive me to a world full of perfection.

I hear a noise coming from downstairs and I start walking on my tiptoes. Oh there's nothing here. I start running to my room and believe me I'm crying a river here. I don't know why.

"Sam please come. I'm so afraid."

I hit the send button and wait for a reply.

I don't think he'll reply 'cause he always puts his phone on silent mode. Just like me. But now, I'd kill him for that.

I wish I can let these quiet voices in my head, fill me up with words of hope. And.. Silly ideas that somehow keep me going.

That's why I hate being alone at nights like these. It's not that I fear the dark.. No I love it because it is like a medication for my soul.. But I hate them because they remind me of everything bad that happened.

What did I do wrong to have a dad like this? Wasn't his daughter enough to make him stay?

You know what hurts the most? It's that stupid promise he made.. I hate promises because people actually don't know what they say. It's a big deal to me, but to them it's like any other word.

And again, what did I do wrong to lose my best friend? I didn't lose her as a friend I know.. But she just left me here. Alone.

My phone buzzez on the bed and I jump quickly. I realise that I had some sleep last night. Maybe the 'overthinking' thing, isn't that bad.

It's a text from Sam. Oh too late cupcake..

"Amelia I'm sooo sorry!! I just woke up.. If you want me now just text me back."

I knew he really feels sorry but I will make sure he never puts his phone silent.

"I'm okay and don't worry about it.. I have to do some chores now. See you soon xoxo."

I go to the kitchen to have some breakfast. I make pancakes and dress them with cream and strawberries on top.

I'm really good at cooking, my mother always tell me. I always end up watching TV when I'm bored, and yeah I'm actually addicted to Master Chef..

I call Ray when I'm full and she answers on the first ring. She tells me about how bored she is and about her grades and that 'Stupid Calum'. She won't admit that she likes him, even to herself. God! I miss her..

I shake my head to get rid of my threatening thoughts. I miss my lake so it will be a good idea to go there.

While I'm on my way, I feel like a dropped something. I look up and see a very tall guy and I think that I dropped his books..

"Oh my God I'm so sorry." I say and I cover my mouth to hide my embarrassment.

"You better pick 'em. Now." He says. Wow he's rude.

I pick them immediately and he walks away when he takes them. "You are welcome." I shout and he waves his hand, dismissing me..

"Asshole." I shout back but he sure didn't here me.

10 minutes later I find myself sitting by the lake. It is clear but I'm used to it now. Someone is certainly coming to this place but I'm okay with that.. He/she isn't bothering me anyway.

I start playing with the cool water. Suddenly I feel happy and free. It's really amazing that the water alone in this place can make you feel relieved. As if it has some magical power or something. I always enjoy my solitude here.

"Do you always feel happy when you come here?" A voice makes me jump and scream. I look behind my shoulder to see the same guy who I dropped his books.

"What are you doing here?" I try to keep calm as much as I can but fail miserably.

"What are 'YOU' doing here?" He asks in a sarcastic tone.

"I always come here and this is my place.. Please go. Now."

"Well, I don't see your name anywhere here.." God he is so nosey..

"Did you follow me? What a stalker.." I tell him and he laughs. Why is he laughing?

"Did I say something funny?" I ask again and he tries to hold his laughter.

"Like you are worth being followed." He says in a devilish voice.

"Asshole." I say under my breath.

"What did you just say?" He asks, anger storming in his eyes.

Oops he heard me.

"I said 'asshole'." I reply, challenging.

"You are such a bitch Amelia." He says and I feel the adrenaline dancing in my system.

"Don't you dare call me that again. Ever." I threaten and he smirks.

Wait... How does he know my name?

"Why would you think my name is Amelia?" I try to hide the fear in my voice.

"Oh trust me I know everything about you. Everything." He replies and I can feel his dangerous eyes on me.

"Okay.. You are such a devil you know that, don't you?" And as I say that, I run as fast as I can and stop when I spot my house.

What the fuck was that? He looks dangerous and.. I don't know. His stormy eyes were killing me and I felt a kind of emotion behind the anger in them. His eyes are blue and beautiful, but his anger covered them and they looked gray.

Okay, why am I thinking about his eyes?

He's such an asshole. Yepp.
