Hey guys! It's kinda late where I am, like after 2:00 AM, but I really wanted to work on Brand New Life a little before I go to bed. I really hope you guys liked the last chapter. I'm sorry if it was a little boring, I was kinda really tired when I typed it. I'll try to make this next chapter better, I promise!

It had been a week since that small argument with Isla and everyone. I had tried to keep my distance from Darren, but the farther I was from him, the worse I felt. I talked to my sister Ariana (The only one who hadn't given up on me since I was Marked) about what was going on, and she told me the same thing that I knew was happening. Ariana told me that I was falling for Darren. Hard.
And I was falling for Darren. I fell for him the minute I saw him on my first day here at the House of Night, in the Dining Hall, when I met everyone. That's when I started feeling something for him.
But I knew that I couldn't feel this way. Darren was with Isla, and Isla was the first friend I made here, and I didn't want to ruin that by coming between them. But, I was already coming between them.
Deciding that I needed to get my mind off of things, I walked over to my desk, where I kept my laptop and CDs and movies. I grabbed my laptop and my 'The Wanted: The Wanted EP' CD and sat back down on my bed. I clicked on 'iTunes' and clicked on my 'Faves' playlist and as 'Glad You Came' played, all my thoughts about Darren and Isla and my feelings disappeared.
The sun goes down, the stars come out,
And all that counts is here and now,
My universe will never be the same,
I'm glad you came, I'm glad you came
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no one else can see, you and me.
Turn the lights out now,now I'll take you by the hand,
Hand you another drink,drink it if you can,
Can you spend a little time,time is slipping away,
Away from us so stay,stay with me,I can make,
Make you glad you came.
The sun goes down,the stars come out,
And all that counts is here and now,
My universe will never be the same,
I'm glad you came,I'm glad you came.
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no one else can see, you and me
Turn the lights out now,now I'll take you by the hand,
Hand you another drink,drink it if you can,
Can you spend a little time,time is slipping away,
Away from us so stay,stay with me
I can make,make you glad you came.
The sun goes down,the stars come out,
And all that counts is here and now,
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came, I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
So glad you came
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
The sun goes down,the stars come out,
And all that counts is here and now,
My universe will never be the same,
I'm glad you came,I'm glad you came
Listening to the song and hearing Nathan, Max, Jay, Siva, and Tom's voices drain my fears and worries away was exactly what I needed. 'Glad You Came' ended and 'Chasing The Sun' began to play.
I'm better
So much better now
I see the light, touch the light,
We're together now
I'm better
So much better now
Look to the skies, gives me life
We're together now
We've only just begun
Hypnotised by drums
Until forever comes
You'll find us chasing the sun
They said this day wouldn't come
We refused to run
We've only just begun
You'll find us chasing the sun
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun
You'll find us chasing the sun
(Chorus)
When the daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
'Til it's golden again
And now it feels so amazing
To see you coming
We'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun
I'm never
I'm never down
Lying here, staring up
And you're looking down
I'm never
I'm never down
Live forever, forever
With you around
We've only just begun
Hypnotised by drums
Until forever comes
You'll find us chasing the sun
They said this day wouldn't come
We refused to run
We've only just begun
You'll find us chasing the sun
The sun, the sun, the sun, the sun, the sun
You'll find us chasing the sun
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun
You'll find us chasing the sun
(Chorus)
When the daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
'Til it's golden again
And now it feels so amazing
To see you coming, and
We'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun
You'll find us chasing the sun
(Chorus)
When the daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
'Til it's golden again
And now it feels so amazing
To see you coming, and
We'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun
You'll find us chasing the sun
As soon as 'Chasing The Sun' was over, there was a knock on my door.
"Come in," I said as I scrolled through my songs.
Lianna opened the door and walked in my and plopped down on my bed next to me.
"So, what you doing here?" I asked. I wasn't trying to be mean, I was just wondering.
"I thought you could use some cheering up and I know the perfect thing to cheer you up with," Lianna said. She snatched my laptop out of my hands and began scrolling to the bottom of my playlist, where all of my One Direction songs were and clicked on 'More Than This'. "This is perfect."
I'm broken, do you hear me?
I'm blinded, 'cause you are everything I see,
I'm dancin' alone, I'm praying,
That your heart will just turn around,
And as I walk up to your door,
My head turns to face the floor,
'Cause I can't look you in the eyes and say,
When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight,
It just won't feel right,
'Cause I can love you more than this, yeah,
When he lays you down,
I might just die inside,
It just don't feel right,
'Cause I can love you more than this,
Can love you more than this
If I'm louder, would you see me?
Would you lay down
In my arms and rescue me?
'Cause we are the same
You save me,
When you leave it's gone again,
And when I see you on the street,
In his arms, I get weak,
My body fails, I'm on my knees,
Prayin',
[chorus]
When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight,
It just won't feel right,
'Cause I can love you more than this, yeah,
When he lays you down,
I might just die inside,
It just don't feel right,
'Cause I can love you more than this, yeah,
I've never had the words to say,
But now I'm askin' you to stay
For a little while inside my arms,
And as you close your eyes tonight,
I pray that you will see the light,
That's shining from the stars above,
(And I say)
When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight,
It just won't feel right,
'Cause I can love you more than this,
'Cause I can love you more than this
[chorus]
When he lays you down,
I might just die inside,
It just don't feel right,
'Cause I can love you more than this, yeah,
When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight,
It just won't feel right,
'Cause I can love you more than this,
When he lays you down,
I might just die inside,
It just don't feel right,
'Cause I can love you more than this,
Can love you more than this
"Thanks, Lianna," I said as the song ended. "You do know how to make me feel better." I smiled at her and pulled her into a tight hug.
"You're welcome, Hadley," she said as she hugged me back. We pulled away and Lianna put on another One Direction song, and that was how we spent our day. Sitting in my room, listening to One Direction and The Wanted, talking about our past lives as humans, hanging out, having fun. It reminded me of those days I would spend with Brayden, hanging out in my bedroom at my mom's house, before we broke up, and it made me smile. Yes, Brayden cheated on me with a fourteen year old slut, but I had fun being with him while we were together. It was a good part of my life.
There you guys go! I hope you guys liked the chapter! I know nothing really happened, but I just wanted a simple chapter. I PROMISE THAT THE NEXT CHAPTER WILL HAVE DRAMA IN IT! AND LOTS OF DRAMA! And the lyrics that are in this chapter are from two of my favorite bands, "The Wanted" and "One Direction". I love both bands SO MUCH and I love their music SO MUCH! Anyways, I hope you guys liked the chapter!
