I woke up from a tormented slumber of dreadful nightmares.I groggily ascended from the four poster bed.

I stepped through the adjoining bathroom,I looked at my face in the mirror.I felt so much older but my face had the glow of youth,my complexion was very pale.I had immense bags under my eyes,you could slightly see the age in my eyes,the mature look.This was something I resented deeply ,but that's what you get when you've seen the things I've seen and experienced them.It becomes hard to open up to people and trust them.

That sounds weird because the one thing I want is to find people I can do that with.I want do this but,I've given up my optimism and sanguine.

There was no shower,so I ran the antique bath,it had gold Lion paws on the bottom.The tub was huge,you could probably fit four people inside.I brushed my teeth whilst I waited for the bath to finish.

I'd decided to stay for a while,I'm not sure if I'll stay for good after what happened with Wyatt.I can give the twins a chance but it doesn't mean we'll be close.

After I'd had a long and invigorating bath,I went back to my room.I'm sure if I scavenged the mahogany wardrobe,I could find something to wear.

I was walking past the desk,when something caught my eye,I froze.

I stepped closer,I'd spotted a picture frame.I picked it up and gasped at the resemblance,it was my mother,I looked just like her.Except from the hair,she had dark brown hair.It looked almost black.

It was a little unnerving,you often forget what someone close to you looks like after they pass away.I haven't exactly forgotten,I vaguely remember her face.I just didn't realize how much we looked alike.

I found some skinny jeans that I had to compress myself into.I picked out a loose T-shirt that was faded,it has an old band logo on,I think it was 'Deep Purple' .It was hard to decipher, considering it was so worn.

I looked for some footwear,I couldn't exactly wear my shoe boots.One of heals had broken off and the other hung very limp and forlornly.

I came across some biker boots,they were quite badass.So I helped myself to them.I put them on and stomped down the stair case.

The twins were carrying platters into the grand dining hall.I followed behind them.

I gasped as I entered the dining hall,it was so exquisite.The tapestries were so intricately sewn,with a variation of Roses.Some of the tapestries told a story,there were Sirens perching themselves on sailor boats.Others were propped on rocks,combing their fingers through long and lustrous hair.

I sat at the long mahogany table.Eden was sat on the opposite side stuffing her face with pancakes.I searched for Sam but he was no where to be seen.

I looked at Alex who simply shrugged and continued to eat.The twins were sat at the table,even when they were eating they looked elegant doing so.

They all began talking,I stayed silent.

I took two pancakes from the platter,I put maple syrup on one, then vinegar and sugar on the other.I know it sounds disgusting but it's how my Mum used to always do my pancakes,it was a replacement for lemon juice when we didn't have any.
