I woke up from a loud noise coming from the corridor. It was admittedly a nice, loud sound. 'Wait- Are those drums I hear?'

I opened my eyes only to see my new beautiful room looking at me. God, I have never slept like that again. It was like I was sleeping in heaven. The mattress was softer than a cloud and the sheets were so warm that I thought I could stay in there forever. By far the best sleep I had all those years.

I sent a snap to Valeria to inform her I had woken up and then put on my outfit. I decided to throw a Black Veil Brides black t-shirt and a grey jacket I found and got out of the room. There was still music echoing the whole house, which I liked so much.

As soon as I stepped out of my room tho, I saw Chris entering a room and the music stopped. 'What a pity' I thought. It was a nice melody. Florence and the machines. Someone enjoys playing rock music here.

I looked around the hall, trying to figure out what I should do. The clock was saying it was 11:26, what could I do in a mansion, fully unfamiliar to me, at 11:30 am?? Admiring the walls?! Or even better standing right where I am and doing nothing like a statue?

As I was thinking about those stupid things, the music started again. Only now I could hear drums and an electric guitar. The melody was so familiar. It brought me so many memories. Fun memories from when we were still at the same school, having fun. Fun before the tornado which was called Joan and Antonio, my parents.

Parents... As far as I know, parents don't kick, punch, or in general abuse their children for nothing. I never did anything wrong. Since I remember myself, I have a bruised body and I'm scared of adults. Valeria helped me get out of it. She talked to me, told me things about the world, and the real dangers. However, I still couldn't face my parents and defend myself

I was walking towards the door, listening to the best song I could listen to at that moment. Exactly what I needed and the performers were amazing. Like crystal.

I slipped down the closed door of the room where the heaven was coming from and hummed the rhythm. my back against the white door. The specific rhythm could relax me in every situation. And then the lyrics came on in my mind...

'She got a smile that it seems to me'

I closed my eyes and traveled back in time when I was back in Greece, with my friends and having a good time. Well... as much good time as I could with two devils waiting for me back home. The lyrics were slipping out of my mouth like a river, making my heart melt as the seconds passed by.

I know I don't have the best voice in the world, nor the second or the third best However, when I am singing alone, I don't care if someone could hear me. I just want to not be watched when I do. I love singing, especially rock songs, they help me calm my nerves and go to another universe, with all my dead idols.

'Ooooh ooh oh sweet child o' miiine'

As I was singing, I felt a little poke on my shoulder, making me flinch. I opened my eyes and I turned a new side of red from what I saw. Cole was standing there, smirking down at me.

"Well... We both can agree you don't have the most melodious voice in the universe" he teased, sticking out his hand to help me stand up.

I covered my face with my hands, sleeves rolled up to my fingertips and walked away, going down the stairs, with him following behind me. He came closer and placed an arm around my shoulders, his palm hanging in front of my right shoulder.
