~~Intro~~
This book is about a young girl who, along with her family, suffered a distressful moment, watching her home, her life and her childhood burn to ashes, she watched as her whole life crumble to nothingness as her house turned to dust.
~~~~
She'd bury her head into her fathers arms, her mother had died only weeks before with cancer, everything that she loved and cherished has just...gone...
"Hey Martin." A tall man, black haired, blue eyed, with a big sad smile sat upon his face, would approach his friend. "Hey Harry..." The girls' father would frown. The girl just stared at her now burning childhood house as it turned to ashes. Harry would pull her into a hug as she began to cry.
Two boys, about her age, would approach them. The red haired one would hug her father, whilst the more darker haired, quieter one, would stand by his father. Harry, the boys' father, would wrap an arm around his son and hug him also.
The young girl would be pulled away and she'd look up at the darker haired boy. He'd look down at her, and he'd embrace her into a tight hug. She'd burst back into tears burying her head into his chest.
He'd kiss her head. She'd look up at him, teary eyed, "E-everything..i-it's gone..." The darker haired boy would kneel down to her height, holding her hands. "Well, you and your father are always welcome at our house Amelia. You know that, right?" His ocean green eyes would shine with sadness and she'd nod.
"I-I know...b-but.." The boy would shake his head. "Amelia, everything, as you said, is gone." He'd suggest to her father. "He's heart broken," He'd look at her father "You've now lost everything." He'd frown facing her again. "You both have nowhere to go."
She'd look back at her father who is crying into his best friends arms. She'd then hug him tightly, "Thank you. River." He'd smile weakly at her as she buried her head into his chest. He'd look over at his older brother who would look at his father, Harry would look Martin in the eyes "You can stay with us, I can help you find a new home."
Martin would smile brokenly. "Thank you Harry but.." Amelia would look up at her father "Please, father I don't want to move school, nor move away from my friends." Martin would lean down to her height, "My dear, we have to. I don't think that it would be best if.." Amelia would look down sadly, "Fine..we'll just move away. What ever." She'd storm off tears sliding down her cheeks to the park.
River would follow her, "Amelia wait..!" She'd continue to walk but he'd grab her arm tugging her into a hug. "I don't want to leave River. I don't want to move schools, I don't want to lose everybody I have. I don't want to lose you." She'd sob looking at him in the eyes. He'd sigh kissing her on the lips. "I don't want to lose you either. But if it is what your father has decided, then you must go with him." She'd shake her head, "Can't you ask your father if I can stay?" River would chuckle sadly kneeling before her kissing her.
She'd kiss him back, wrapping her arms around his neck, he'd wrap his arms around her waist pulling her closer. "Amelia," He'd look at her sadly, "I can ask. But, we have to stay in our own rooms." She'd nod. They'd walk back together hand in hand.
"Father." River would look at Harry and sigh. "If Amelia so wishes to stay with us. May she?" Harry would look at Martin. "What do ya say?" Martin would sigh and nod. "But, you two stay in your own rooms. No kissing whilst I am there and I guess Amelia can wear River's clothes until she gets new ones." Amelia would blush. "But father, he is twice the height of me, I have no uniform that would fit." River would chuckle, "It's better then having no uniform at all." Amelia would pout up at him.
The red haired boy would roll his eyes. "Alright, but Martin, where will you be staying?" Martin would sigh, "I'll be in the next town, with her grandparents, my wife's parents." Amelia would frown looking away. Martin would sigh again. "Ammie, you did save your phone, right?" She'd shake her head. "Didn't have the time." River would smile slightly "I'll take you to the shops to buy some school uniform and a new phone tomorrow, okay?" Ammie would nod, so would Martin.
