Welcome to chapter 19

First of I have an apology to make to Sunfall,

thank you for reviewing on chapter 17 but I didn't see this because I never got the email so I am sorry. Sorry I didn't mean to leave you out.

Thank you Cookie05 for reviewing again,

Thank you Zebralover4578 for reviewing again

and thank you to Linneagb for reviewing.

Sorry I've been taking so long to update, it's just I have got two other stories up on this site and I am writing another story with my friend, so I have kind of been distracted.

We wandered down the drive and Verus turned the opposite way, "I thought we were going into town," I said,

"I just told Mike that, we are going somewhere more interesting," Verus said,

"where?"

"I don't know, we will walk and stop if we find something interesting," Verus told me.

We walked for about half an hour when we came across a river with a footpath parallel to it, "come on," Verus said, grabbing my hand. As we walked I remembered about how much Verus used to love walking, I guess she never stopped loving walking. We walked for miles and miles until we came across a small café, Verus went inside while I collapsed onto a chair at a table. Verus returned about 2 minutes later clutching a bag full of chips.

We sat and ate the chips when Verus started talking, "do you love Rick?" Verus asked,

"I love him but I'm not sure if it is just a relationship or if it will last for years," I replied. Verus nodded.

"I guess you always had all the luck with guys," she said after a moment,

"luck with guys!" I exclaimed, "I was raped for weeks on end when I was 11 and 12," I told her,

"I got pregnant too!" I said.

"But you've got Rick," she said,

"yeah..." I said, unsure what to say next, "well Verus you have done better out of life than me, I may have had all the attention from the guys but it never ended up turning out well, you however are clever which will get you further in life than being a good kisser," I told her.

"Maybe..." she said, "I guess I got the brains and you got the looks,"

"if we wore the same clothes and had the same haircut we would de identical," I told her,

"I need a new style," Verus said to me, after a moment.

"Looks like a shopping trip is in order," I said,

"I haven't got much money," she told me,

"I am rich because of my job," I replied, "so the shopping is on me."

We walked on, once we had finished our chips to a neighbouring town. First of all I took Verus to the toilets where Verus removed my bandages and I removed her hair extensions and make up. I put them in my bag. I then took her to a shop, I asked her what she wanted, she walked round the shop picking up various items.

"No no no," I said as I looked through what she had chosen, "we are moving away from you being a punk," so I went round with her and we eventually got some more normal clothes. She went into the changing rooms and emerged a few minutes later now wearing a pair of red jeans, a white top with black writing and black leather jacket, she was also wearing fake black converse. She looked more normal and prettier. I nodded and she grinned and returned back into the changing room.

She came back a minute later wearing grey leopard print jeans and a black top, "yes!" I screamed. After this happening about 5 times we bought the clothes and left the shop. "Right so makeup," Verus said, really getting into the make over.

I took her into Boots and bought her some better eyeliner and she bought herself some red lipstick. "Right so no wearing eye shadow, just black eyeliner and red lipstick and you can only wear this if you only wear the colours white, black, grey and red," I commanded, Verus nodded.

"Ims can I have a haircut and can I dye my hair?" my sister asked,

"of course you can have a haircut and you can dye your hair if the colour is within reason," I told her.

"Ok I want to have my hair just tidied up and I want to dye my hair blonde," Verus told me,

"ok," I said, slightly unsure about where this was going.

A couple of hours later we walked out of the hairdressers, Verus was wearing her new clothes, her brown hair was now blonde, it was completely straight, her eyes were outlined and her lips were red.

"You look amazing Vee," I said to my sister,

"I know," she said, I laughed.

"I have never been pretty before," she said,

"nonsense, you were always pretty," I told her.

"Awwh Ims you are sweet," she replied,

"please can you call me Immy not Ims," I asked,

"nope you will always be Ims to me," she said, slinging her arm round my shoulder.

"Home?" I asked,

"home," she agreed.

We walked back to the house and Verus got straight into an argument with Gina about her hair and like the good sister I am, I left them to it. I walked up to my room, "hey," I said to Elektra, who was lying on her bed.

Elektra ignored me.

"What's the matter?" I asked, she continued to ignore me, so I walked out of the room.

Johnny was walking past, "hi Johnny," he ignored me too,

"hi Tee," I said half an hour later, Tee ignored me.

"Tyler what's going on?" I asked, he looked up at me, "seriously, you don't know," he said, "you are disgusting."

"Frank, why is everyone ignoring me?" he walked straight past me.

"Carmen what is going on?" unsurprisingly she ignored me too.

"Harry, Floss, what is going on?"

"Jeff thinks your mean," Harry said and they ran off.

"Jody, hi," I said, she ignored me too.

I walked upstairs and knocked on Rick's door,

"go away," he said, I opened the door. Rick was sat on the floor.

"What's going on?" I asked, "why is everyone ignoring me?"

Rick stood up and turned around, "because of what you did. Don't deny it, I saw it with my own eyes," he said,

"What did I do? I didn't do anything?" I said confused,

"that's what they all say," Rick said, "now get out."

As I walked out of Rick's room I saw my dark headed sister waiting outside,

"well Immy, you have really messed this up, haven't you," Beta said,

"what did I do?" I asked.

"Immy Rick caught you, it's over,"

"caught me doing what?"

"he caught you kissing that guy last night, he thinks you are a stupid cheater and everyone in this house agrees," Beta told me.

You can never make a fresh start, the lies always catch up with you.

Do you think I should write a sequel after I have finished this?
