Chapter one

I emerged from the darkened woods to find myself gasping for air in the middle of a street. All I kept thinking was " I have to keep moving " and with that I started running left.

The rustling of the woods kept distracting me ,was it him or just the wind? I couldn't tell however , what I did know for a fact was I was not stopping to find out . I finally arrived to a town and entered the first building I came to. Turns out it was a library. The silence was a much needed relief , and it was empty minus the librarian at the front desk. By the look she gave me I could tell she wasn't friendly. I briskly walked thru asles of dusty books towards the back and sat down in one of the vacant desks.

My face fell into my hands and all the pain rushed out. How could this happen? How could my once perfect put together life become so ....broken. The memories started to play like an old film you never wanted to see Agian.

Chapter 2

I walked into the classroom and instantly felt the stares all at once transfer to me , by now I was use to this. This was third school in the past two years , my mother moved around a lot she always had a different reason. " the area isn't right for us " or " the weather is better in this place" oh or my favorite excuse " I can tell you are not happy here, maybe you'll like it more in this place" but , I knew there was fear.

She was running from the fear that my father would find her. So I stayed quiet and came accustom to this new girl life style.

The stares , the bullys , and the creative rumors of why I left my old school mid year. At the end of the day it didn't matter , what mattered was staying strong for my. Mom no matter how broken she was I was going to be different , nothing could break me. To me this was perfect. Strangely perfect.

My attention to the floor was interrupted by the teacher asking me to introduce myself and where I transferred from. I just thought " are you kidding me this is the eleventh grade not the sixth" but I moved my self to the front to do as she asked.

" hi , I'm autum knoles. I just transferred from Charlotte high school of Florida." I looked at the teacher and she waved her hand for me to find a seat. It was science class so they had those table like desk where two people shared it. I ended up sitting by this boy , I could feel his stare the whole time I was walking toward his table. Trust me if I could of I would have sat anywhere but, there.
