(The main characters name is Darby)

Darby's POV

I think I should introduce myself. My name is Darby, I am 18, from Indiana, and I am getting ready to move to England. I have been planning on moving there since I was 14. I have curly red hair, blue eyes, I'm 5'9'', I have full sleeve tattoos, I have gauges and other peircings, I am also very fit for a girl, and I am a hardcore directioner.

My 16 year old cousin Ashlin and I are moving with each other. She is shorter than me, she has long blonde hair, blue eyes, and she is a directioner too. We had been saving up for a couple years so that we could move. We were already packed up and ready to go. "Ashlin, come on. The plane isn't going to wait forever!" I yelled up the stairs.

"I'm coming, just give a minute!" she yelled back.

She came barreling down the stairs with her suitcase and we loaded it up into the car. We were only about 10 minutes from the airport and we were singing 'What Makes You Beautiful' the whole ride there.

We had finally arrived and our plane was called. We were in for a long flight and I was terrified of airplanes. Ashlin immediately fell asleep and so did I. I was woken up be the flight attendant shaking my arm telling me that it was time to get off the plane. "I can't believe I slept the whole ride here." I exclaimed to Ashlin.

"Don't feel bad, I slept the whole way there too." she laughed.

"Can you believe that we finally made it?" I questioned with excitement.

"I just want to get to our house and unpack then go to sleep." she sighed.

We were heading to our flat that we had found online. I was so excited to finally see it. We arrived there and we hauled our luggage up there and plopped on the floor. "So do you want to pick rooms now or do you want to wait and go shopping?" I asked.

"We can go shopping first. I really want to get some furniture and some bed sheets." she giggled and we went out.

We had a rental car and we drove to this nice little store. We had just enough to get a couch with a love seat. Some curtains and bed sheets, towels, a television, and a washer and dryer. They had delivered it to our flat and we put it in place. Correction, I put the things in place. Ashlin was too busy putting up the curtains. "I call the master bedroom!" I yelled from the downstairs.

"No fair!" she yelled back.

"I'm the oldest, so I make the rules. Besides, the rooms aren't that much different in size." I said, trying to reason with her.

"Fine." she said, crossing her arms and walking back up the stairs.

I had finally finished unpacking and I was ready to go to sleep.

I woke up early the next morning and Ashlin was still asleep. I didn't want to wake her up so I made my breakfast and turned on the television. I didn't know the channels here so I just started flipping. I found this music channel and it was playing One Direction. I turned it to max volume which woke Ashlin up. She came running down the stairs and she started twerking in her pajamas. We had a good laugh from that.

We had gotten ready and we were heading out to see what the town had to offer. I wore a purple beanie, with a long sleeved neon green button up, neon orange skinny jeans, and some yellow TOMS. Ashlin wore a white v-neck with black ripped skinny jeans, and red Chuck Taylors. I didn't want people to see my tattoos especially since we were going to look for jobs. I ended up finding a job at this quaint little bread store and Ashlin found a job at Starbucks.

I drove us back to the flat and we finished decorating. I walked by Ashlin's room and she had posters everywhere. Her room also spewed pink. "Ashlin, can I come in?" I asked, while opening the door.

"Yeah, sure." she said.

"I just wanted to know if you wanted to go shopping for food?"

"No thanks. I'm just going to take a nap. Would you wake me when you get back?"

"Sure, is there anything inperticurlar that you wanted?"

"No"

"Ok, I'll see ya when I get home." I said, then grabbed my purse and walked out to the car.

There was this little grocery store that I went too. I kept seeing this guy that was hiding behind the shelves just peaking over enough for me to see him. I couldn't really see what he looked like but it was rather creepy. I finally confronted him, "Why do you keep looking at me?" he didn't answer. The next thing I heard was a loud pop and then everything went black.
