Ever since I was little, I have been told there is something wrong with me, that something makes me different. There's a better word to describe what I am, hmm how do I put it. I'm a freak as they say, I hear voices in my head and see thing that aren't really there. The voices can get very dark at times but only me and Julie truly know what they say. The voices weren't as bad growing up but over time they have manifested itself into something bigger.

Your probably wondering who I am, Well I'm Amy. I'm 15 years old and I'm bloody insane. LITERALLY! I Have short black hair that is never brushed sometimes I wonder how birds have not mistaken my hair for nest. I have small evil green eyes well so I'm told, a pale pink complexion and weak yellow skin with a tiny slender body shape. I live with my older brother Dan, he's not completely bonkers like me. He's what you call normal but what even is normal, it's a mystery to me. He about 18 years of age with brown, short, gelled hair that is always slicked back. He has fair skin that makes his small sweet green eyes stand out with a slithy chubby body shape. So you could say we're complete opposites.

Tomorrow I get sent away and no I'm not going to some camp or field trip. I'm going to a metal-hospital because well Dans is worried about me and my "condition" or what ever it is. I can even see myself that it's getting worst but I'm not to worried about it. I wish I could just be like other girls, having fun, wearing make up, dressing up, chasing boys .Well maybe not the chasing boy part, But I guesses this is just the way I am.

To be honest I hate the idea of going away, I'm going to miss this small town. I'm going to miss it's mysterious nature, it was always full of many secrets, I'm going to miss my friends Hunter and Annie, I'm going to miss Dan and most of all I'm going to miss Julie she's the only person that understands me. She's always there for me. She always listens, she's the only one the helps me, the only one that keeps me sane. She's my sister, my best friends, she's my soulmate and now I'm going to lose her forever because of my stupid mental issues.

(The next morning)

The morning light fills my room, filtering through the space in my cream curtains. I slowly open my eyes and roll to my side, i peer throw the cloudy window and see Julie looking up at the window with her sweet loving blue eyes. I stand up as fast as I can and open the window.

"Good morning beautiful" Julie yells.

I don't say anything, i simply smile. I step away for the window and throw on whatever i can find. I run down the stairs as fast as I can, the stairs creaking with ever spent. I fly out the door into the back garden and head towards Julie. I rap my arms around Julie almost knocking her over and squeeze her tight.

"I missed you so much" I say at the verge of tears.

"I missed you too" Julie replays slightly pulling away looking deeply into my eyes.

She moves her head closer to mine tilting it as she moves closer. I lean in closing my eyes, our lips meet it was passionate, sweet and loving. I want to pull away before I lose myself in the moment but I can't seem to let myself to pull away.

"Amy I need your..." Dan says shocked.

Our lips pull apart, I look at Dan a thousand thoughts going through my mind.

"I'm going to pretend I didn't see that" Dan say awkwardly.

"Breakfast anyone?" We all laugh walking up the pathway toward the house hand in hand, Dan following behind.
