Nobody Compares To You

Nobody Compares To You - Chapter 1!

Chapter 1:

A normal teenager, that’s all I am. A normal teenager that loves the oh so famous band One Direction! I have posters all over my room, have seen all of the video diary’s and interviews and I have all their music. I love them but I’m not an obsessed fan.

Anyways at the moment I’m on Skype with my very good friend Kiara. She and I became friends in grade 6 that was 5 years ago, and now we are best friends. It’s now summer holidays (in Australia) and has been raining for the past few days. What a great start to the holidays!

“Emily! You have to come over and see my new dress I found for out formal next year! It is absolutely amazing! You need to come dress shopping now while the sales are on or else you won’t get any good deals!” Kiara yells through my computer screen. The one thing I love about this girl is that she can find the best deals and knows where to look for amazing clothes. But there’s only one bad thing I hate about clothe shopping.

“Yea, yea I will Kiara. You know I hate trying on things! It’s so annoying.” I tell her.

“You’re so lazy!”

“But you love me!”

“No I don’t”

“Oh yes you do!”

“No!”

“Yes!” I yell. This then went on for a bit longer. It’s the normal thing for us. The one thing I like about my office in my house is the big chair I have in it. It’s black with a tall back, arm rests and it can spin!

“Hey, how long are your parents gone for?” Kiara asks me.

“There not coming back until the 23rd of December and then are leaving again on the 27th. There only staying for my birthday and Christmas.” I reply.

“So, how many days until then?” She asks.

“Well they’re just leaving now so that’s 25 days left I guess. I’m so glad their gone for these holidays I don’t know how would’ve survived!” I’m an only child so it’s never fun on holidays. Mum always tries to get off work as she hates me being in the house alone, so she’s mostly home. And then when dads home we all have to do things together.

“You are so lucky. I wish my mum and dad just decided on going on another honey moon!” Mum and dad just made up that excuse just so they could go away by themselves. To be honest I’m glad they’re gone. But the only bad thing is I have to go up to one of their friend’s house so they can tell them I’m alright and then I have to call them every so often. That’s the deal we made instead of them calling me 24/7.

“Yea I guess.” I say.

“Emily! We’re leaving now!” Mum calls me.

“Ok!” I shout back. “I’ll be right back.” I say to Kiara.

“Tell them I say have fun!” She shouts in the computer. As the office was at the front of the house I didn’t have far to go to get to the garage where they were. They were going through the garage so it will be easier so they don’t have to look after a key while relaxing, only a small remote to open and close the door. They were all already outside the front of the house with the garage door open waiting for their taxi.

“Oh sweetie, please look after yourself while we’re away,” My mum says “Don’t forget out deal we made!” she reminds me.

“Oh what deal was that again? The one where your getting me a dog while your away?” An only child with no pet! What kind of world is this??!! My dad glares at me while I laugh my head off.

“No. You know what it is now do not forget.” He says sternly.

“Come on you know me, I never forget anything!” I fight back.

“Yea like you never forgot to feed the fish!” Mum pipes in. I go quiet. Well that only happened a few times.

“At least I wasn’t the one to kill Nollaig (pronounced nul-egg)!!” We’re Irish so I named it after my first toy I got. It’s Irish for Christmas. Yes my mother killed my Siamese fighting fish. We were going away for a week so we get it a weekly feeder thingy and it ended up killing my favourite fish.

“Yea, well, oh well. We know you won’t forget.” Mum replies.

“Yes thank you. Now Kiara says to have fun! And I say don’t have too much fun!”

“We’ll tell Kiara we say thank you. And we will you in before your birthday!” Dad says while hugging me.

“Yes I’ll see you then! And don’t forget my present ‘cough’ dog ‘cough’.” I say as I hug mum.

“Oh we’ll see about that, you’re going to get a great surprise.” She says. I suddenly smile at this. I know that means I’m getting a dog!

“Ok I’m going to go back inside to Kiara. So have a fantastic holiday to wherever your going! Bye! Love You.” I shout even though their right next to me.

“Bye! Love you too!” They shout as well. We have excellent humour in my house hold; they stay inside the garage as it’s still kind of raining. Anyways, I walk back inside the house knowing mum and dad will close the garage. When I get back to the computer I see Kiara has fallen asleep. Silly head she knows better not to do that. I grab my phone out and find an alarm and put right next to the speaker on the screen as soon as it goes off she’s screams saying “I surrender!!” with a shocked look on her face. I ended up laughing on the floor in a fit of giggles. It was just to funny.

“Y-y-you s-s-s-should’ve seen y-y-y-y-your face!!” I say between my laughing fit. Oh that was just to good!

“You’re so mean!” She yells.

“Yea, yea I know. It’s in my nature!” I fight back.

“But I thought you were a nice leprechaun!”

“That’s what they all think. But when you least expect it we become evil creatures of the night!” I say spookily but failed and started laughing again. I love to laugh! As I have sit back down in my big chair and find a comfortable position Kiara seems to freeze with a shocked expression on her face.

“Kiara, what’s wrong? Are you ok?” I say but no reply. “Kiara! Kiara what’s wrong?!” I shout at the computer. And all she has to say whisper is “Behind you.” And as I look around I think my jaw just dropped to the ground. As I take in what’s in front of me I just can’t seem to form any words, but they seem to manage.

“Hi!” Is all they said at the same and I just stay in shock.
