this is a story i started at 2 am in the morning :sideways: let me kow if u like it, lump it, think i should carry on or whether i should stop...
Chapter 1.
as the paper fluttered to the floor i screamed with joy. i had passed my balet exam. i ran to my parents bedroom. my smile faded as i heard their raised voices arguing again. Lately they had always been fighting over one thing or another. i quietly knocked on the door and waited silently for their arguing to die sown. as things started to egt quieter i heard my parents shuffling around and drawers being opened and slammed shut. i shuddered. i moved away from their door and crept into my onw where i threw myself onto my bed and cried. i wasnt stupid i knew what was going on. my parents were going to split up. as much as my brothers, sisters and i triied to make things better for them, things just werent getting better or going to get better for that matter. things would never be the same again.
Mum knocked on my door and came in carrying two suitcases her eyes were bloodshot and teary. she sat on my bed a hand resting lightly on my back but her eyes were looking at the floor. "im sorry mel, i really am. i just cant stay here any longer though." as tears leaked down her face i moved closer and cuddled her. we sat for five minutes with our arms wrapped around each other crying. "can i come with you?" i quietly asked. i watched in disbelief as she shook her head from side to side her eyes filling with tears again."mel, i'm..." there was a pause "in love with another man." she looked down and picked invisible lint from her clothes. i looked at her profile as tears poured down my tanned cheeks. i wanted to slap her. i balled my hands into fists to stop myself. i closed my eyes and heard her move towards my door when she stopped "im sorry mel, i really am sorry." she whispered before she walked out my door saying "i love you." and then she was gone.
i lay down on my bed with music thumping and cried. i cried and cried until i had no more tears to cry. as the music thumped through the room i finally fell asleep where i drifte into unwanted dreams of my mother with her new boyfriend. he was undoubtly gorgeous with his cow like brown eyes, dark eyelashes that curled up perfectly. his hair was a mass of dark curls that shone in the sunlight. then suddenly it was me that he was holding and passionately kissing. i felt fuzzy and warm. but at the same time i was scared.
That morning when i awoke i knew that something was going to ahppen whether it was good or bad i could not yet tell. as i got ready fro school it felt like i was in slow motion. i slowly brushed my hair and tied it into a mass of black curls that bounced everytime i moved.
