I sat on my all white bed and scrolled through twitter on my MacBook.
"You're all lame" I whined in my faded English accent.
Why is my accent faded? You might ask
Well I used to live in York, England a while ago. I pretty much spent my childhood there with my Bestfriend Bex.
Our families were super close.
My mum really cherished Bex's brother, ben. It's only ever been me and mum so ben would sometimes look after me. He was about nineteen when his band finally took off, I was around twelve.
I always had a crush on ben, I guess. He was just that forbidden fruit I could never have.
I still follow him on twitter and Instagram but he never replies to me, he probably thinks I'm just another crazy fan.
"Morgan please come down stairs" sighed my mum from behind my closed bedroom door.
"Why? Ugh I like my room" I whined as I plopped face down on my bed
"Is it too much to ask for me to spend some time with you on your birthday?" Mum sighed again with a hint of disappointment in her voice.
"Mum I have a birthday every year" I groaned
"Yes but you only turn eighteen once" mum argued
I rolled my eyes
"I know you're rolling your eyes at me Morgan. Most people go out and have fun on their eighteenth birthday. Most people want a party. You haven't even been to a party" mum mumbled
I roughly pulled my door open.
"Mum I like to keep to my self. Is that too much to ask? I like being in here. I like being alone." I snapped
Mums face dropped into a saddened expression
"Mum I just like it better alone. I don't need to be fussed over" I said softer this time
Mum nodded and walked down the stairs.
I shut my door and slid down it, planting my face in my hands
The twitter notification sound came from my phone.
I eagerly reached for my phone.
"@benjaminpaulbruce said: Australia four days early, it surprise time fuckers ;)"
My stomach turned to mush
Ahh ben is in Australia
I just wanna touch his face
Who am I kidding he wouldn't even remember me.
"Morgan get ready! We're going out for lunch soon" called my mum from down stairs
"Way to burst my bubble" I mumbled
I sat on the floor in front of my mirror and pulled out my makeup.
I applied black winged eyeliner, thick false lashes, black mascara, foundation and slightly red lip balm.
I decided to change my lip piercing to a ring. Now it matched my nosering. They're both pierced on the right side of my face.
I found a short black dress with short selves and a white rounded collar coming out. The dress was tight at the top and then went into a skater skirt style. It had black patterns covering all of it, sort of like lace. I decided to wear black creeper shoes with black ankle socks that had white frills on the top.
Next I put on my light blue denim jacket.
I puffed up the fringe on my long, very dark brown hair.
Before I left my room I picked up my small black bag with the long strap and filled it with my iphone, headphones and vanilla perfume.
"Bye bed" I laughed before shutting my bedroom door and turning off my fairly lights that lined my entire room.
