A/N: so this is before the murder dies and after he kills Suzy. I couldn't help but wonder what he did in between, but I will warn you I haven't read the book yet. I've only seen the movie but I plan on reading the book. So tell me what you think and I'll post the next chapter after I get at least 5 reviews please. The next chapter will be better since first chapters always suck
I stretched out on my warm comfy bed and imagined never getting up.
" Lucy. Time for school," my mom said as she passed my room. She was heading towards my brother's room to wake him up.
I sat at the kitchen table and ate my cereal. Nathan, my brother, was coming up behind me and messing up my hair. Now I wonder why this memory stuck with me so much. I guess it was because that was the last time my family was together. I tied back my brown hair and went to my room to get dressed then I headed out for school.
The memories I kept from this life puzzled me. I remember this last morning. I remember sitting on the curb with Emma, my little sister, and eating ice cream. I remember the day before my dad left for the war… and the day we got the letter saying he'd never be back. The thing I remember most though was playing princess with my dad and Nat. Of coarse my dad was the king and Nat was a soldier for the king and we would run around pretending to be in a perfect little kingdom.
I walked into the middle school and kept my head down. Tomorrow I become officially 14 and I couldn't wait. Someone came up next to me and 'accidentally' bumped me. I wasn't exactly what you would call popular at my school.
xoxoxoxo
I was walking home and I couldn't wait to get back. See if school was my own personal hell, then home was heaven. As I was walking my neighbor called me over. He was really nice and my parents and I had known him for a while
" Hey Lucy. I have some stuff for your mom could you take it to her for me please,"
" Sure," I was in such a rush to get home I didn't notice how he was looking at me. I shouldn't have been so stupid.
" Come on, come on in," he walked into his house and motioned for me to follow.
