I woke up from the laborious car ride to New Town our new house is here to be honest I didn't give a flying monkey I just wanted a room with a forest view you know? Also father's work requested this town so I guess it was a slim fit, we got to the house and it was right next to spooky woods! "This is sick!" I exclaimed my brother smirked "So the emo one speaks" he mocked I narrowed my eyes and growled. I hate it when people call me an emo just because of my taste in clothes and dark things. I sighed and picked up my suitcase dragging it to the door I peered in. Inside it was like a mansion my heart burst with joy I quickly lugged my suitcase up the stairs and checked every bedroom for the best forest view and then I found it a room painted black with a gothic window it's like the original owners knew I was going to move in. I quickly put my suitcase down and ran to the car to carry my box's to my room. My parents seemed to find joy in my determination to drag everything of mine up the stairs. My brother (who is two years older than me) had already found his room by the time I dragged my stuff up. I beamed at my big black room with a view there was a window perch already here so I sat and looked at the gloomy woods mesmerised in its beauty and eerie complexion.
My mother came in glancing around my room and gave a worried smile "Iris don't you want the purple room or something? I mean I know you are going through this dark phase but soon you will be out of it and you will regret moving in this room. Plus I think we will live here for a long time so I think it's healthier if you moved to a room with more light in it." She said head down knowing I will not be pleased and no matter how much I tried to fight it my anger rose high in my throat. "Mum for one this is not a phase! It is the way I am I ALWAYS loved black I have NEVER had friends I was cut out to be like THIS! Not some 'mummy's precious angel' I hate you when you force me to be something I am not I have ALWAYS been a freak and I will NEVER change." My mother stared into my eyes and lifted my head by my chin "Oh Iris, I try to deny it but I know this is who you are I just don't want anyone to hurt you no one likes someone different. You are no freak Iris you are more than most girls you are so much more stronger than most kids." She looked at me with tender eyes "and no matter what you are I will always love you." I smiled and she pressed her lips to my forehead "Thanks mum I love you too" I murmured she smiled and turned to inspect my brother Daniel. If there was one thing I knew it was that my parents are the only true people who love me.
My bed, desk and shelfs came at midday I spent the rest of the day putting my things in the most perfect spot. My posters hung next to my bed and around my window, I moved my desk right next to the door and placed my laptop on the desk. I sighed and opened it checking all my social networking sites I opened up my Facebook to see 63 notifications. My brother came in at the same time of my Facebook check up he pushed me away from the computer "Woah! Emo I thought you said you have no friends!" he exclaimed I closed my eyes knowing it was hate and he would soon find out about it. There were a few clicks and a pause "Iris..." I opened my eyes in shock Daniel never called me Iris not ever. "Daniel?" I whispered scared to look him in the eye "Why didn't you tell me about this?" he said cupping my face in between his big hands I could feel the tears welling up. I tried to blink them away but that only made it worse. "Well I thought you wouldn't care Daniel you are 17 you got more problems than a 15 year old emo." I mumbled trying to look down but his hands restricted any movement of the head. He shook his head in disagreement "You are a big part of my world young lady. Don't ever think I didn't care about you I just wanted to give you some room for growing up. That's all..." I looked up into his sincere blue eyes I smiled and let the tears drift down my cheek knowing my eyeliner and mascara is pouring down with it. "Don't let those normal people get to you." He murmured winking at me I giggled at 'normal people' they are not normal they are just so hard to deal with. Daniel left the room confident that my self esteem has been replenished. Saw a white figure in the woods in the corner of my I turned to the window and it was gone. I sighed and my eyes shuttered shut and I drifted into an endless void of black but the one thing stood in my mind as I was dreaming... A slender white figure.
