Chapter 1.

10 Years Later:

Y/n pov: 

"Ava! Wake up or you'll be late for that job interview!" I yelled through Ava's door. I heard a loud crash and Ava mumbling to her cat Johnny.

When I was young, Ava and her family adopted me. I was diagnosed with severe memory loss so I don't know my real family, where I'm from, anything. All I know is waking up in an orphanage when I was thirteen and living there for two years before Ava, Devon, and Andrew came and adopted me. Ava and I grew up together and started living in this apartment after I came back from college.

I went to the kitchen to make some breakfast only to find we didn't have any food. Hmm, I'll probably have to go shopping after Ava leaves for her interview. I said in my head, grabbing a slice of leftover pizza from the fridge and putting it the microwave. All of a sudden, Ava burst through her door, still trying to put one of her shoes on in a hurry. "Can you do me a few favors while I'm out, Y/n?" Ava said running to the kitchen, looking through the cabinets.

"Number one, WE NEED FOOD!!!" Ava said angrily after finding nothing in the cabinets. "And two can you feed Johnny? I can take out the trash on my way to my interview." Ava said grabbing the trash and running to the front door. "Yeah sure. Bye Ava! Good luck on your interview!" I yell behind her. 

I hear the door open but I still hear voices. Probably just the landlord. I grabbed the cat food from the cabinet and poured the rest of it into Johnny's bowl while he sat close by waiting for me to finish. I hear the door close meaning Ava must have left. 

I walked into my room and over to my closet. I changed into my favorite (f/c) sweater and my blue jeans. I walked into my bathroom and looked in the mirror. I brushed my (h/l) (h/c) hair, getting all the tangles out. I looked at myself in the mirror, my (e/c) eyes glittered. I actually looked pretty good today. 

I looked down at my necklace. It was a rather large purple gem hanging from a silver chain. I found it one day when I was exploring a cave. I'm not entirely sure where it came from but it looked pretty so I put it on a chain and I've hardly taken it off ever since. 

I grabbed my tall black boots, putting them on and grabbing my backpack. I walked to the door grabbing my keys and headed out, going to the elevator and pushing the button. It finally came up and I stepped inside, waiting for it to take me to the first floor. 

I put my earbuds in and turned on my favorite song. I walked down to the mall in a pretty good mood. I walked into the cafe, seeing my coworker, Alana. She had been my friend since fifth grade and we had been close ever since. 

"Hey, Y/n! You ready to start the day?" she said noticing me in the doorway. "Yeah just let me get changed!" I said going to the back and putting on my uniform. We started setting up the cafe, setting up the tables, taking down the chairs, getting the ovens and drink machines started, the normal thing. We were normally on the opening shift so we were used to this. 

It ended up being a pretty normal shift. We had some of our normal customers and it went by pretty quick and without problems. Overall a pretty good start to the day. I figure since I was already at the mall that I should go to get food since it was my payday. I was actually in a really good mood, surprisingly!

I decided to pick up cat food for Johnny, Mountain Dew, Ava's favorite cereal, milk, and my jasmine tea. I was pretty strong so I was able to carry it all back on my own. I decided to take the stairs, seeing as it would prove to be a good enough workout for today. 

When I finally got up to the third floor I set the groceries down to unlock the door but it was already unlocked and the handle was badly burnt. I touched the handle a bit to make sure it wasn't too hot to touch. I dropped all the groceries and ran inside hoping that nothing bad happened.
