Chapter One

Iris's POV

On top of my toes I walked down the wide stairs so I don't wake up my parents. I opened the big double doors and Nora ran out. She was so annoying sometimes, like right now, did she really have to go for a run around the yard in the middle of the night. I sat down on the stairs, the light breeze making me a bit chilly.

"Hurry up Nora... I'm sleepy... And I'm getting cold!"I said in a whiny voice.

There aren't any other kids in the house that I can hang out with, I was adopted when I was two years old, never had a best friend, everyone told me that I am spoiled and selfish, but I just don't know how to behave when I'm surrounded with a lot of people, or how to share. I get really awkward and self conscious. I guess people think that I'm weird.

The one and only real friend, human friend, I ever had was Jordan. Actually, his mom knows my mom, that's how we met. If it wasn't for our moms, and years of hanging out behind us, I don't think he would like me as much as he does now. He lives near my house and he's always been there for me. Although he is a little over-protective of me, I love him a lot, he is like a big brother to me!

I attend the public school in the city. I had a huge argument with my parents because of it, because the wanted me to go to private elite school, or be home schooled. But I never agreed to that, like this I had something to do instead of staying at home and doing nothing, cause the housekeeping did all the work that needed to be done, leaving me with my computer and my cell phone.

My mother spoiled me, bought me everything I ever asked for, or anything they thought I needed. For example a lot of designer clothes. I also own two bedrooms. Like, who needs two freaking bedrooms? I think a lot of girls envy me for everything I have, so I am "a rich bitch" around the school. I don't think that they really understand me. I was just lucky enough to be adopted by a rich couple. But reaches don't buy happiness.

Any boy that I ever liked wanted to be with me because of the money. So, I had no luck in relationships either. None of them tried to win my heart, or do something romantic for me. So, I only got Jordan for midnight walks and mindless talking.

But, I only see Jordan during summer, he is going to a school abroad. So I miss him a lot when he is not home. We don't even talk or text or anything. It's like he is alive only during summers.

Blonde hair, really light ash blonde and pale complexion. Slightly muscular body, that's Jordan. And his eyes, totally black, like some little bugs that would happily glow every time he sees me. We spent days together in mine or his house watching movies and playing video games that I liked.

My life has been kind of weird recently. My hair color started to slightly change with my mood changes. It happened at the most inconvenient times. Jordan thought me how to control it, I don't know how he knew what I am supposed to do, he seemed like he didn't want to talk about it, so I never asked. He just knew it, and I accepted it. No one but him knew about that, not even my parents.

I snapped out of my thoughts about Jordan when Nora jumped on my back and started licking my ear.

"Nora! That's it! I'm going in... I need my sleep! You better come, or you're staying out whole night!" I said grumpily and walked inside the house ignoring Nora's whining.

As soon as my head hit the pillows I fell asleep...

Summer sunlight touched my eyelids and woke me up. It's 16th of August today, my seventeenth birthday. I was too lazy to get up instantly, and I was determined to stay in bed utill late today, but someone else didn't think so.
