Peter and Melody

A new girl has a secret move to numbers schools hoping tings would get better everything changes when she meets a sliver haired boy

My name is Melody White, I suppose in a way you'd think that I'm ordinary but with a… not so common name. I mean really a song and the colour white strange I know. But I'm stranger in person. How many times have I moved school you wouldn't even begin to count? I'm 15 and will be 16 in a few weeks so that's something to look forward to I hope to fit in this time but that's what I always say then I get called the freak,

It's not my fault.

Never my fault.

I can control it.

I'm a mutant

I Need to try to be normal.

And I don't want to be afraid no more.


3rd September

"MELODY, wake up it's the day." Its 7:00am too early why would she wake me up have I got to go the shop or answer the door to get newspaper thrown at me by the paperboy. No I don't think so, might aswell respond otherwise she'll drag me. "What day."

"School hurry you have an hour you insolent child." She snapped, she always snaps at me these days getting pissed off everytime we move schools she said and I quote 'we are sticking to this one no moving I don't care we are staying here it's a good area and the school is good.'

"Okay." I yelled, nothings perfect I mean all schools are the same they write respect potential all that stuff when there just words that nobody really gives a damn about.

I forced myself out of bed and used my powers to tidy the room the quilt and duvet all scatters moved with swiftness and folded neat and tidy my clothes piled on the floor in a neat pile with a waved of my fingers. My mother Heather Smith she doesn't now I have powers she would think its devils work I never show them to her she's always busy and only pays attention to shout at me sometimes I wonder if she wants to put me in care she's only threatened to me that once.

once I robbed a shop to get her fags when the shopkeeper turned I used my power to zoom the fags in my pocket and ran home, I get a smack from my mother if I didn't get the things she wanted if she found out my powers she'd want everything even if I was arrested she'd probably visit and expect me to click my fingers and pop the object. She's never there and I'm alone.

I like using my powers but not always in the open I'm pretty fast I can zap things and I can say what I want if it's only a simple object like a pen or well food so that powers pretty lame I can't zap because people would know mutant live among them I don't want to be exposed I'm careful. Barely anyone knows about mutants only the mad the government or possibly animals. My Cat Piper doesn't seem to mind me.

I got changed threw on a pair of dark blue jeans a black T-shirt and a blue and black chequered top along with white socks and brown walking boots and my messenger bag I tied my dark blonde hair in a ponytail I pushed past my fringe and tucked it behind my ear I didn't bother with eye makeup just put foundation on.

I walked down the steep wooden stairs that had the little creak at the middle they were covered in red carpet. We need to get these fixed red carpet won't make a difference. I thought. My mother was in the kitchen making the orange juice, "Morning mom." She looked up didn't reply, she looked tense maybe nervous like me a few second alter she spoke.

"I'm going to be back late alright I haven't got anything in the fridge yet so you'll just have to have some noodles or pasta or you can rob the shop for all I care, there vodka there for me and Fanta for you and don't bother asking if you can come home if you don't get on with people new start remember. I won't tolerate a bloody phone call from school I will be here but the door will be locked until you actually finish then I'm off no trouble."

"I don't intend to get into trouble I didn't mean what I did last time they were lying."

If that happens again don't even THINK! About coming home Melody Jane White. Or there will be nothing for you."

"Okay sorry I'll see you later."

"Don't forget your keys or you'll be stranded."

"I have before! You didn't even notice you were so DRUNK!"

"GET TO SCHOOL NOW GIRL! AND WALK."

"GLADLY!"

I slammed the door shut my mother watched me out the wonder giving me a dirty look I scoff. It's about a 45 minute walk from Novena road up this big long road the only shop was the chipped and a convenient store where I got all he bags of shopping and drove there myself sometimes I think I'm the mom and heather is the rebel child that needs a good slap to see the real world. I went inside to buy me some breakfast just the smell of baked bread made my belled growl like a dog some woman next to me looked and me I rolled my eyes and took out a pasty and some orange juice and some gum for the day I had money left over for lunch before my mom got hold of it and I went to pay.

"Hello just this please." The man gave a grunt and nodded he opened the cash register and just as I was about to give my money to him the door suddenly went open and a fast breeze went by and in five seconds or less as the door shut again the opening door chime didn't even seem to register the exit maybe it was the wind but when I turned back to the man he glared a t me and tried to grab me I notes all the money in the cashier had gone mainly he £20 notes did he think Iwas responsible for that I don't think so, before he got to me I threw my coins at him and ran. "STOP THAT GIRL COME BACK HERE." I jumped on top of the car front and ran round the corner the direction to my new school and bumped into someone or something before I got a chance to apologize A sliver boy smiled at me a turned he was gone then fast breeze again.

Well what morning
