An "Awesome" Life

CHAPTER 3

"AUDREY WAKE UP!" Dakota yelled. I woke up instantly. "What are you doing on the coutch?" She asked in a calm but angers way.

"Oh I sa-" I stopped. I wasn't going to tell her that I saw four black cats with read eyes float in mid air. "You what?" She said. "I- er, wasn't confer table in my bed." I said thinking that was the worst excuse I could ever think of. " Go and get dressed you have an orthodontist appointment, your getting braces." she said sternly.

Oh my god I completely forgot, I hate braces and I never even wanted to get them in the first place.

I ran upstairs to my room. I grabbed my pink shirt that says 'love' on it, but instead of an 'O' for 'love' it has yellow kitty. I grabbed a pair of skinny jeans and see through yellow flats. I pulled my hair into a simple side ponytail. I brushed my teeth really well, making them look pretty enough that they don't need braces. I smile at myself in the mirror thinking this will be the last thine in forever that I will me myself with no silver studs in my mouth.

I ran right down the steps seeing Bella all ready to go. She's wearing ripped pika dot pants with a black and white tiger shirt. She also has black combat boots. She curled her hair so it is kind of messy.

"Hey Bella" I said "is that one of the new outfits you got yesterday?" "actually, no. It has been in my closet for a very long time, I don't really wear it often." she said. "Its cute" I said.

I spotted Ivy making breakfast and scared me because last time I saw her was last night laying on the edge of the woods. Apparently she saw me too because she asked me why I was on the couch this morning, did a cat scare you or something. I answered back "Well, no, er, my bed was just really uncomfortable haha." I hope she was convinced.

" Go and get dressed we have to go to the orthodontist remember, your getting braces on today." She said sternly. Oh my gosh I completly forgot. I hate braces I never even wanted them in the first place. I ran to my room. I grabbed my pink shirt that says love on it, but instead of an 'o' for love it is hello kitty. I grabbed a pair of jeans and yellow flats. I didnt do anything with my hair it is already straight. I brushed my teeth really well, hoping they look good enough that they didnt need braces.

I ran back down the steps seeing Bella wearing ripped polka dot jeans with a black and white tiger shirt. "Hey Bella, is tht one of the new outfits you got from the mall yesterday?" I asked. "Accully, no. It has been in my closet for a long time I never really wear it often, it makes me feel like im in a black and white photograph." She said "Well, its cute." I said.

Ivy was in he kitchen cleaning up. She saw me out of the corner of her eye. " Why were you on the couch this morning, did a cat scare you or something?" I must have had a heart attack of something when she asked that. I answered, "Um, no my bed was uncomfortable.

Soon Dakota came in. She had heels on with a blue dress.

"Audrey, Bella, come on we need to go your appointment is at ten and its already 9:35. Lets go." Dakota said.

Bella and I quickly got up and followed her to the car.

I must have fallen asleep in the car because once we go there I jerked awake. I got out of the car and went into the orthodontist office. I wanted to got home to sleep and not to get braces. We sat in the waiting room for a while- I was so glad, but soon enough they called my name- Audrey Pratt. They woman who brought me back was Dr. Burnly. "Hello Audrey how are you today?" She asked. "Good" I said. "I am going to put your braces on, my name is Dr. Elizabeth Burnly, you can call me Liz. Choose the colors you want while I get everything ready." She said motioning me to sit down. I sat down as she sat down on her spiny chair. I grabbed the spiny wheel with colors out of her hand and started playing with it until I found a really pretty orange and a bright pink. She took it from my hand and started glueing braces onto my teeth.

It took her an hour to do my teeth then she told my I can go. I walked out and saw Dakota and Bella getting up to schedule my next appointment.

When Dakota got done we started to walk back to the car. Dakota started the car and left the parking lot. We were almost to our house but Dakota stopped at her boyfriends house. "Why did we stop here?" I asked. "I told Chip I would come and eat lunch with him" She answered. "Why did you bring us then?" I asked. "Because he hasn't seen you for a while." She answered. We got out of the car. Dakota went up and rang the door bell. Ding dong. The door opened and Chip came out.

He smiled and looked at his bushes by the sidewalk. He stared for a while but when I looked back nothing was there. I looked back a him and saw him shaking his head. Then said "Oh hi Dakota." "Hi Chip, you told me to come over for lunch." Dakota said. "Oh right." He said.

Later that day when we came home, I saw something. It was the bush around our house. It kept shaking, I couldnt decide what is was. It was probably just a bird or a bunny.

I walked inside and saw Ivy sweeping the living room. I walked past her and started thinking about last night, but instead of thinking of it I pushed it away in my mind and started thinking about my project.

I walked upstairs and grabbed my project. I looked at it for a while and decided to put the doll in it. I grabbed the doll and the clothes I got with it. The doll had brown hair brown eyes, like me. The clothes are pink pants, with a black tp with necklaces around it. It has a ruler necklace and a bunch of normal necklaces too.

I carefully put her next to the table with the sewing machine on it. I also put some random clothes into the sewing machine. I put a little clip board with little tiny sketches on it too. I was finally done. The walls had orange scrapbook paper on it with a little bit of design. It had a black and white tile floor , and four windows. I almost forgot to put the chandelier in, so I put it in with some hot glue.

It was 3:00 and I was hungry for a snack. I went downstairs to see if Ivy was making anything, nope.

"IVY!" I screamed. No answer. I waited a second then yelled again- still no answer. After about five minutes of screaming and yelling I gave up. I went to find her I looked in her room Dakotas room Bella's room in the bathroom, looked out the window that looks at the pool, and everywhere else. Ivy was not in the house.

I went outside. I looked everywhere, still no Ivy. I walked into the woods. Of course, ho could I forget, she and some other people were at the edge of the woods last night, so she might be there.

I looked around in the woods, trying to see if I could see her. After about five minutes of looking I found a little cottage. I thought that she may be in there. I really didnt want to go in because, well it was scary looking, and it was in the middle of the woods. I was starting to want to just go back and make a simple snack for myself, but then decided to go in im here I can face my fears. I opened the door that said 'i chs co t'. It was a very squeaky door. When I walked in I almost screamed.
