Chapter 3

Flashback

Moving to America was probably the biggest and most exciting thing I had done in my entire life. I had wanted to travel the world when I was older so I guess in a way it was experience right? Plus it was a fresh start one I really needed. Even so moving into a new neighbourhood and starting a new school was hard, but the house itself was beautiful; I mean my bedroom was so big it probably was the same size of half my old house back in Edinburgh. The place we moved to was called Rosemary Beach.

I know what kind of idiot would name a place that? Rich people I guess. It sounds so girly and pink, I mean don't get me wrong I love dresses as much as any other girl but pink. HELL NO. There wasn't even a beach here in fact it was more country than anything else.

Super green grass, huge masses of trees and enormous houses. More of a village, I guess.

Another downside was my mother's boyfriend or shall I say, soon to be step father Leo Ryder was a douche. A full on douche. It took all the will power in me, not to start an argument or say something which my mother would regard as "out of turn" partly because she looked so happy, they both did. They looked like lovesick puppies. It was so gross. I mean seriously which mother makes out with her fiancé in front of her child. That's right no ones. It was practically abuse.
But as you have already guessed my mom is not the definition of the word normal. Maybe that's where I get my weirdness from.

And then there's the constant

"I love you" and

"I love you too."

GAG FEST. And if it couldn't get any more cringey they keep calling each other

"Soul mates". I know ewww.

I stayed tucked away it my room the first three days either that or I explored the back garden just to get away from the pair of them. I just couldn't take any more of their love sick expressions. That was how I found what I called my "secret special place". The back garden to Leo's house was large and beautiful just like everything else in this place. However it wasn't the beautiful garden that caught my attention oo no it was the old fence which had a hole in it. I tried to stay away, I knew my mom wouldn't like me wondering off.

But I guess the curiosity ate away at me until I went through it.

On the other side of the fence was a bundle of trees a bit like a forest. However after going through the trees were bare field that went on for miles and miles it was truly beautiful. It was so silent and deserted, a murder could have taken place and no one would even know. I guess then I should have realized then that deserted places were no good. Something bad could have happened and no one would even know. But no I only saw it as my secret place. A place I would be able to proudly tell my best friends back in England I had found by myself they would be well jell..

*end of flashback*

If only I had stayed away, if only I hadn't been so confused and hurt, if only I hadn't found that place. If only I hadn't found out about monsters, If only I hadn't been rejected, If only my soul didn't belong to someone who didn't want it. If only....
