Hey guys. I have edited this story cause I've noticed a lot of mistakes so please enjoy and know that I'm a beginner and know very little about writing a book I'm just writing my thoughts on fanfiction. This is a Thranduil/OC story.
A wish come true
Chapter 1: Wishing upon a star
I felt something cold and wet pressed against my nose. I tried to push it away so I can go back to sleep it worked for a minute till I heard whining. I opened my eyes to see Riley looking at me impatiently. Riley is my best friend really. She's an Australian shepherd.
I got up to take her to the bathroom knowing that's what she .i looked at the clock to see it was 6 am. So I headed to get ready for the day in a simple ripped jeans and a breaking Benjamin black t shirt and my steal toe boots. I'm nothing but an average girl. I have black hair with natural chocolate colored highlights, with hazel eyes. I'm only 24. I take one last look in the mirror before I decide to head out.
I'm going to school to be nurse so I can do better for myself than my mom ever did. When my dad died when I was 6 everything changed. My mom started using drugs mainly pain pills. And she's been verbally abusive to me since then. Every once in a while she has hit me out of rage. I let Riley in and put her in my room just as my friend pulled into my driveway.
"Hey Ashley!" I said as I got in. She smiled at me.
"Hey Julie! How are you today?" she seemed in a good mood so that put me in a good mood. We chatted the whole drive to school.
"Anything happen recently?" She asked turning to me with concern in her eyes. She knew about my mom, she had walked in on my mom screaming at me one day, and it wasn't good. The anger in my mom took so much out of her that she passed out I had to take care of her for 3 days straight before she woke up.
"Yeah she almost overdosed the other night." I said quietly staring down at my lap. "It was suppose to be there anniversary." I wanted to cry, from what little I remember of my dad he was a great man, he was the kind of dad that u would only expect to see in movies.
"You know Julz I think you should put her in a rehab clinic. She's not getting better she needs help and this is to much on you. You have way to many responsibilities right now. You know graduating and a dog and your job that you start in a couple days." She said as she patted my shoulder and got out of the car. That's when I realized we had arrived at school. She gave me a lot to think about. I got out and headed into school and grabbed my scrubs out of my locker and headed to get changed.
The day went by really good. I got an A on my test and I got to show new students how to take blood and give since I was in my last year. After school we headed to the gym to work out for a couple of hours.
Before I headed into the gym I called a rehab clinic in Arizona and told them what was going on and they said that they could send someone for her in the morning. So with that I headed into the gym.
We started with jogging the track running 3 miles. Loving the feel of the adrenaline running through my veins I sped up making the blood pump faster. This was how I worked out my frustration. I hated how my mother treated me. But I needed to stay with her to take care of her. She may not be the mom I had before my dad died but she's still my mom and I know if she could she would get help. It's just even when she is off the pills she's worse than when she's on them.
After I finished running I went swimming. I loved to swim it was my favorite pass time. After a couple of hours me and Ashley headed back to my house. As I entered the house I saw food burning on the stove. She must have forgot. I shut the stove off and went to my moms room to find her looking out the window.
"Hey mom, a rehab center is sending someone for you tomorrow morning. You leave for the airport tomorrow afternoon." I said turning to walk to my room when I knocked over a old picture of dad. That's what did it.
"Are you kidding me?! You will never be good for anything. First you treat anything that reminds us of your father like crap. Then you are sending your mother away. What kind of daughter does that. I wish you were never my daughter." She screamed. I tried to ignore her but I felt the tears brim my eyes at my moms words. I don't know if she meant it or if it was the pills but it still got to me. I walked to my room ignoring her angry outburst like usual. It ranges from being called ugly that nobody will ever love me to I'm worthless and never amount to nothing. But I know arguing back would only make things worse.
I messaged Ashley and told her about what happened but I was still going through with getting my mom help. I will not run away and leave her alone when she is like this. I sat in my chair and read the hobbit battle of the five armies where I left off. I loved these books. I guess I was kind of a nerd when it came to lord of the rings. I fed Riley and then sat down to read.
Riley had sat at my feed as I read for about an hour. I sat there petting her until I started getting tired of reading. I kept thinking of my mom. I can't loose her.
I walked over to my window and looked out at the stars as the tears fell. I felt Riley come over to me and lay down. She always knew when I was upset and she always knew how to make me feel better. I don't know what I'd do without her. I sat there petting her for awhile watching the stars. I saw a shooting star and made a quick wish as anyone would.
" I wish to be in a better place⦠a happier place!" I whispered praying it would come true. I laid down on my bed with Riley curled into my side and fell into a dreamless sleep. Then I was falling. At least that's what it felt like. I jumped into a sitting upright position seeing blinding bright light. Where am I?
I could tell I wasn't in my room anymore. I was on grass? Why was I on grass. I looked around to see I was just outside the outskirts of a forest. That looked oddly familiar. I heard something whining to the left of me.
I turned to see Riley.
"Baby girl where are we?" I asked her pulling her close to my side. She pulled away and started sniffing my ear. I pushed her away with a giggle and rubbed the wetness from it.
"Oh my God!" I said as I felt the shape. My ears were pointed. This can't be. I looked back to the entrance of the woods and realized why it looked familiar but wasn't able to place it. It was the forest of Mirkwood, only the healthy version from the movie. I was in middle earth. And I was an elf. Oh my god I think I'm gonna pass out. And just before I passed out I realized that I was not in my usual clothes.
