I'm lying on my bed the hole day even though it's my 15th birthday. I hate my birthday, it's probably not even my real birthday! My parents found me in the woods when I was an infant.

Because they don't know my exact birthday they decided to celebrate the day they found me. For them it's a special day but for me. For me it's only a reminder that I'm different.

'Lana? Can I come in?'

It's my older brother, Dean. Normally he is my best friend, just not today!

'Go away!'

He opened the door and walked in.

'What part of go away you don't understand?!'
'Oh I understand, I just didn't listen'

Why does he always do that?!

'So what's up?'
'I don't wanna talk about it!'

I turned around with my back towards Dean.

'I know you hate your birthday but why? You never told me'

I sat up and Dead sat next to me.

'So tell me'
'You won't understand'
'I can if you just tell me'

How am I going to explain this? He's probably going to say something like don't worry you'll be fine. Or that I'm not the only one and that there are people out there going through so much worse. I'm sorry for them but knowing there are others out there doesn't make me feel better.

'I'm waiting'

There we go...

'Okay but don't tell our parents. My birthday means nothing to me because It's probably not even my real birthday. It's only a reminder that I'm different'
'I understand'
'You do?'
'Yes but it doesn't have to be a bad thing. I mean if our parents didn't find you you might be in an orphanage'

He's right I should think about what I have and not about what I don't have.

'Thank you'

I gave him a hug. Although we fight sometimes he's a good brother. He grabbed something from behind his back and gave it to me. It's a present. I opened it and there was a little necklace inside the box. It's a small golden necklace with a small heart, when I looked closer I saw my name engraved in it. It's beautiful.

'How did you?'
'I went back to where our parents found you and there it was. It should have been there all time'
'It's beautiful, thank you'

I gave him a hug, again. Maybe my birthday isn't that bad after all. Dean stood up and left my room. I walked to my mirror and put the necklace on. For a moment I was wearing a dress and a crown. What the? I blinked and it was gone, that was really weird. It's late, I better go to bed before something else happens. I brushed my teeth put on my pajamas and went to bed.
