Some of these characters are created my Jacqueline Wilson and others by the BBC. The only ones belonging to me are Emily, her family and the social workers and I can't think of anymore but you get the point..........

This is Emily's really family from oldest to youngest:

Ash, Elizabeth, Chloe, Kyle, Jay and Jessie (Twins), Emily, Clare, CJ, and a child who is missing and can't be traced.

PROLOGUE

Emily's POV

My whole family got taken into care after Dad died, just because mum couldn't cope. Before they could take me and my oldest brother Ash away though we ran for it, us two were always close. We stole food to keep us alive that's all; we were always on the run from police and social workers. But we had each other and that’s what mattered.

I haven’t changed much in appearance since then; even now I still have the same long brown hair, the blue eyes that often got mistaken for green if you didn’t look closely enough. I was always tall for my age, so it made it easier for me and Ash. He was also tall for his age. He had brown floppy and messy hair that went everywhere. Unlike mine his blue eyes were bright and very visible. He had rather pale skin compared to my slightly tanned one. I guess we had our differences but people always seemed to say we looked similar if we talked to anybody but we didn’t like talking to strangers, adults were often nosey and asked about where are parents were. It was surprising when we met the two others though.

It was one day we became friends with two other boys one was my age and the other was my brother's age. The one my age became my best friend but we were so young then. He had brown hair neatly trimmed; he had pale skin and was quite small and nimble for his age. His older brother like Ash had messy brown hair and instead of the bright blue eyes he had the bright green eyes. Apparently we all looked similar even though we weren’t related. My brother and his brother began to steel for the fun of it and took things like laptops and phones, we would never be caught. I never approved but I was too young to understand anything really so they didn't care.

But one night, we were running from the police and the younger of the two brothers tripped, his older brother went back and so did I, Ash only went back for me. My best friend had slipped, he had lost conscious. But we were too late the police had caught us and surrounded us. We were split up and I never heard anything from those two brothers. I and Ash were in care separated though. Our mother remarried to this nice guy, most of our sibling went back but me and Ash didn't or the child who had gone missing. I was allowed to visit and I got on really well with my step-dad but I heard stories of Ash and how he hated him. As soon as Ash was allowed out of the care home he went to track me down but every time he did I would be moved to a new care home.

So this is my pointless life..........
