Chapter 1

Emily’s POV

‘’You’re so going to be late.’’ Jared taunted me. Ugh, I hate having a younger brother. ‘’I know, now if you don't shut up, I'll....’’ I trailled off and quickly put on some shoes.

‘’You’re going to be late!’’ Jared said again. Why can’t that kid just shut up? I wanted to punch him in the face. Of course, I didn’t risk that. If I did that, I would be laying on the ground. Being only smaller than all of my brothers and father wasn’t fun at all.

‘’Emily Grace Sadler. We really have to go now.’’ Mom’s sound rang through the house. ‘’Mariana. Don’t make that girl nervous.’’ Dad shouted from his office. ‘’Shut up, Derrick. You are in your study.’’ Mom shouted back.

I looked around, hoping I didn’t miss anything.  ‘’Emily, now. We really have to go.’’ Mom shouted. I sighed, but walked down the stairs, not forgetting my bag.

‘’So, let’s go.’’ Mom said. ‘’Jared, Emily is leaving!’’ Mom shouted. My mom shouts a lot. I heard some noises and Jared ran down the stairs, hugging me tightly. Even though we fought a lot, he’s still my little brother.

‘’Em, I’m going to miss you so much!’’ Jared said and put his head on top of mine. ‘’I know, I know. I’m going to miss you too.’’ I said quietly. ‘’Now, is everyone gone. Ben is married and has a kid. Oliver has a good job. Now, I will never see you again.’’ Jared said.

‘’Cut the crap. Of course you’re going to see me again. I’ll be here with the holidays. I expect you to call on my birthday! I mean that’s in a month.’’ I said pointedly.

‘’Emily, we’ve to go.’’ Mom said. I sighed and let go of Jared. ‘’Bye Jared.’’ I said. ‘’Bye sis.’’ And me and mom walked to the car.

The whole ride, mom and I were quiet. We never got really good along. I was a real daddy’s girl. Not that I’m a real daddy’s girl, if you know what I mean.

Once we were at the station, you don’t think my mom would bring me all the way from London to Leeds, my mom gave me my bags and after that she just left. Yeah, my mom was really pissed off.

I looked which train I needed and then walked to my platform. I had to wait 30 minutes, so I put on some music. I loved music. Music was my everything. A day without music, dude I can’t even think of that.

I sang along with the music. I loved to sing. People told me I was good, I didn’t believe them. I sounded like a crow or something.

Once the train was there, I grabbed my bags and boarded the train. This would be a long trip. At least I was finally out of that stupid house with mom’s stupid rules and our stupid fights.

I looked out of the window. I had a compartment all to myself. Not many people went to Leeds today. I sang along with the music. The world was flashing by.

I was still wondering why I chose to go to Leeds. It was surely not for the program they had. Maybe it was just all to left the house. I felt kind of bad that I had to leave Jared there behind.

Okay, I’ll quickly explain what happened. My mom and I used to be really close. When I was around the 11, my mom thought it was necessary to go to a pediatrician. That woman diagnosed me with ADHD and after that, me and my mom had fights all the time. I swear it’s not my fault.

She was always telling me to be quiet, not to make too much noise when I was quiet. When I was older, I went to parties of friends and when I would come back, mom would freak out on me because she was saying I couldn’t drink any alcohol with my medication. I didn’t even drank any alcohol!

Now, luckily for me, my ADHD was gone. It didn’t matter for mom. I was and always will be a disappointment for her. She was always saying. 'Look at Ben, He has an A. You only got a B.' or when Oliver would score a goal with football. She would say: 'Look at Oliver, he just scored a goal. Why don't you play football. You're so lazy.' It was really annoying and I couldn't change it. My mom would never appreciate the efford I did to please her. 

‘’Miss, can I see your ticket?’’ The conductor asked. I handed him my ticket and he left.

After a while, the train finally stopped in Leeds. I got off the train and called for a cab. I couldn’t deny that Leeds wasn’t pretty, it was just different from London. I saw some shops I definitely would buy some clothes and tried to remember their names.

Once at the University, I immediately walked to my dorm. Since I already dropped most of my things off, I only needed to know who my roommate would be.

Before I opened the door, I took a deep breath. I slowly opened the door and peeked my head inside the room. One side of the room, my side, was dark purple with turquoise, my two favourite colors. The other side was navy blue with grey. Not a bad combination.

I girl, dressed similar to me was unpacking some boxes. ‘’Hello.’’ I spoke. The girl looked up. Her hair was black with streaks of blue and purple in the them. It looked cool.

‘’You must be Emily Grace Sadler. It’s nice to meet you Emily Grace.’’ The girl said and stuck her hand out. ‘’I’ve no idea what your name is, please call me Emily or Em.’’ I said quickly.

The girl chuckled. ‘’My name is Charlie. Well, it’s Charlotte but I don’t really like that name.’’ She said. I smiled at her. ‘’I like your color scheme.’’ I said. I really meant it.

‘’Well, I like yours too.’’ Charlie said. I immediately knew we would be friends. Charlie had something. Something that everybody liked about a person. She was also really pretty and tall.

I helped Charlie unpack her stuff. After that, Charlie dragged me outside to explore the campus, which was just normal, but still.

 So far I really liked Leeds. No whiny mom, no rules and no more disappointment. That’s why I knew I would love the University and why I would love Leeds. I just knew it.
