*MY POV (Dannie)*

I cannot believe this is happening.

I'm gonna be strong now and just make my own way in this world..

Today is my 18th birthday, all I wanted was to have a good day and enjoy becoming a real adult but even that's too hard. It all started this morning when I woke up to my parents coming in my room singing happy birthday and giving me presents.. Even though I woke up to a good start for some reason I still had a feeling in my belly that today would be the best and worst day of my life.

*breakfast*

'So what does everyone want for breakfast?' Mum asked with a yawn

'MACCIES!!' Me and my brother both exclaimed

'That's fine by me' Dad said with a shrug

--*mum leaves the house to go get the mc donalds*--

'So Dannie what are you gonna do today now you're officially an adult? Dad asked me

'I don't really know to be honest.. I might go shopping in town or something' I sighed

'On your own?' Dad said with a snarl 'You aint got any mates to go with you' He laughed

'Oh my actual god today is my birthday can't you just stop being snide and mean for one day really?' I asked

'Well if your that bothered why not go and get your own place?' Dad asked me bitterly

'Dya know what maybe I will as that's what you all want!' I said sourly

*1 hour later*

Mum came back with the maccies and we all ate in silence feeling the tension that has been building up over this last few days.. Like really.. I know I'm 18 and everything but they put so much pressure on me to be all smart and go to university and get an amazing job.. But deep down we all know that's never going to happen.. I'm a failure as I'm always being told.. I just want to get out of here and be able to live my life without having them always picking at everything I do, always making comments and giving me looks that just make me feel completely worthless, like nothing I do is ever good enough and never will be.. I just want to be free!

'Dannie that dress looks so nice on you!' Jade exclaimed as I came out of the changing room

'Does it really?' I frown 'I look even fatter than usual' I complain

'Give over and go try on the others' Jade laughs throwing a pile of clothes at me

'If I really have to' I laugh and go back into the changing room and start singing part of the song hey brother by avicii

'What if I'm far from home?

Oh brother I will hear you call.

What if I'd lose it all?

Oh sister, I will help you out.

Ooooooh, if the sky comes falling down.

For you.

There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do.'
