If only there was a way to make things better for my best friend.

But only is just a saying that people follow even if you think it's not a saying it is.

I walked over to the door once more to be sure Jake was the only one coming in. Even though I know that his parents would come and say hello him and welcome him home. And I don't even think his dad knows that im dating his son. Just wait though....

"So are we ready to go get breakfast?" Jake tried to sound casual.

"No, I have to make sure I find the right dress to eat in." I sighed knowing it would take forever for her to find one. Knowing her cocky side.

I stood at the window looking at the gardener's work of art. "See something you like?" I smiled at him. "No just looking at the gardener's work of art is all." He sighed with a smile.

"What? I am just fine trying to find myself in my thoughts." He looked at me like 'seriously?' I kept telling myself, just wait....nothing can surely be that difficult in life could it? But really I don't want mother nature to come slap me for the thought I just got. Even though it night not be that bad.

what else could I be doing in a matter of minutes I could be in the ball room finding history it's self written all over it. And even though I think about dancing doesn't mean I want to dance. Maybe it does and maybe it doesn't.

"Are we done yet? I mean we waited long enough to eat breakfast when it's almost 9:00 AM in the morning!" I tried sounding a little annoyed and mostly normal but that completely failed!! Alex came out of the closet wearing a dark red dress with black 5 inch round toe pumps and the fabric on the shoes were velvet!!

I just couldn't believe my eyes! velvet 5inch heels!!! OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD!! I know i'm like freaking out but DAMN!!!! I have never seen heals like that before! Unless they were in like some store I never heard of which could possibly happen.

Alex seen my expression and laughed her head off, "girl, I thought I taught you better than to stair at other people!" she pretended to scoff when I gave her a stern look." And I thought I taught you to NOT look so fancy when all we're doing is going to eat!"

"Hey, I can't help it to not look so fancy when I'm around all this goodness!!" I just glared at her until she felt uneasy about it." You brought a suit case of clothes YOU wear. And that is what the suit case is for correct?" She nodded with a sad frown on her face.

Good, hopefully this will get her to pay attention to everything else. "shall we go?" I turned to Jake and he nodded on. "Let's go." And we set off to the dinning room. we arrived at the dinning room with a smile on our faces once we found that every family member was waiting for us to find our way here hoping we didn't get lost.

Breakfast was better than I hoped for when it was served. The tray they handed out to us was the same thing everyone got: 2 scrambled eggs, half a waffle, 2 pieces of bread, and a small bowl of strawberries. which by the way was my favorite fruit! YUMMY!! And I thanked god we didn't do a prayer of any kind because 1. I am Christian, just not a church person and 2. I'm not going to hell or being a gothic person.

Yes I do wear black most of the time, but I also wear a color with it. So you can't just assume  that I turned gothic because I wear black, that is NOT true. So when the meal was gone off my plate I sighed and thanked everyone for the meal and headed to my room. I really didn't feel like interacting with any one today for some reason.

Then out of know where the image of the guy I saw out in the woods just the other day popped in my head. What am I thinking about this guy? And what did he say his name was? Shit, I forgot, which isn't surprising cause I forget a lot of things in the past. The only things that I didn't forget yet is that damn boyfriend my mom let in our house time and time again .

Why can't I just forget about him....I'm in British country here!! And my head just doesn't want me to have a break from him.....UUGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD, why do I HAVE to remember him when he does selfish things to me and my mother! And I personal won't be surprised if I come back to that house and find her hurt, tired, drunk, or worse, DEAD......I have to let that go!!!

A knock came from the door, "who is it?" I asked wondering if it could be one of his parents. "Just me." a dark voice that I instantly new said through the door. "well don't stand there with the door closed come in."

The door opened to find Jake, his tasseled hair, and his tired eyes looking at my direction. "what? You want to do something?" he set a smile on his face, " I would  like to do something with you while your in that dress..." I narrowed my eyes at him." maybe you'll get your shot, but right now I'm just too deep in thought." I turned to look out the window once again.

"care to tell me what your thoughts are about?" I blinked a couple of times before looking at him with concern. " come on Clary, you know you can tell me anything that's bothering you..." I really didn't think I would be telling someone about this situation I'm in. But if he really wants to hear it, he shall have it.

I started with "well, when I started school my mom was going to work and she had the mornings to herself at home. And everything was normal talking to my friends and all until...I came home...only to find...."

he looked at me with concern, " to find what?" I really didn't want to say cause his frame was so fresh and his voice was still haunting me. " To find my mom on the floor and a guy that was supposed to be my moms boyfriend standing 5 feet from her with a chefs knife in hand...." Jake looked horrified, more than anyone I know.

So I told him the rest cause he ended up comforting me and telling me that things are going to get better. And that if anyone touches me like that he will send them to jail with a broken nose, a brused rib, a twisted arm, and possibly a broken leg.
