So, today it´s one year since I for the first time uploaded a chapter on here. The very first chapter of "when life changes".
Also, if there´s any twilighter there, there´s a girl who´s doing a sims- 3. Series of my Twilight fanfiction, so… if you like twilight, go check it out. It hasn´t really started yet though… gosh I´m so exited.
I reached for a bunch of CD:s in the big box, and looked at the fronts of them all, some of them had belonged to me, some to Jonas, some to mum, and some to dad. All of dad´s was by Billy Ray Cyrus, and there were five. I smiled, and remembered how dad used to put "achy breaky heart" on the highest volume possible, and then danced with me around the living room.
Mum´s was with either Mando Diao or Veronica Maggio "jag kommer, jag kommer, jag kommer." I hummed on a song, and then looked at Jonas´ a song with disney- songs, most of them the Swedish versions. My CD:s were Amy Diamond mostly, but also Taylor Swift, Måns Xelmerlöw and Darin. I put all the CD:s to the side, decided to go downstairs and listen to them later.
The next thing I pulled out of the big box, was a wrapped gift, I checked the card hanging from it.
Just a late birthday gift. Love from Leon.
I opened it and found an ex of "de kallade mig Ise" by Madeleine Krell, a book I´d been eager to learn for a long time.
Now there were only a few things left in the box, another Teddy, that had belonged to Jonas, named Tango, a knitted cap, and the very last thing. Sheet music.
The sheet music I had written, it was a song I and Jonas had created together, I had just sat by the piano one day, improvising as usual, and he had come to sit on my lap, and started hitting two different notes, and I had started playing to them.
I hadn´t played this song since before the crash, I knew that if I tried I could, I could hit the right notes I mean. But I wasn´t if I could really bare playing it without Jonas. I laid it in my bookshelf, took the CD:s and went to the living room, I guessed music was what I was gonna enjoy myself with for the next two weeks, that was how long the doctor said I was banned from looking at TV, and using the computer.
I put "some gave all" with Billy Ray Cyrus in the CD- player, turned the volume up and turned "achy breaky heart on" I stood up, moved away some furniture, and then I just stood there, on the middle of the floor, and let myself remember and go with the music. I closed my eyes, and remembered.
"Come here Emilia." Dad said, took one of my hands and laid the other one on my shoulder.
I held my arms, like I would have hld them, as if dad actually was there dancing with me.
My dad started dancing
One step back, right, forward, left, spin around.
It kept on being like that, I saw dad iin front of me, could almost feel him leading me in the dance, could almost hear the laughters, just… almost.
"EMMA what you´re doing?" Mike´s shout from the office, woke me up from my dreams. My concentration was disturbed, and I tripped over the arm support on the sofa, I landed on my back in the sofa. I sat up straight away and shouted back to Mike.
"NOTHING," I shouted, turned the music off, and stood up again. But the magic was broken, dad was gone, once and for all. I turned the music off, and carried the CD:s back to my room, I got "de kallade mig Ise." Then I walked downstairs, put the furniture back to their places, and laid down in one of the sofas and read.
"Emma?" Mike came into the room, when I´d reat a while. The book was very… catching… or whatever to call it. The time seemed to be flying away when I read, and I had already read for almost and hour.
"Wow… that´s a big book!" Mike looked at the front side to see which book it was. "Okay, I don´t understand that. What does it mean?"
"It means, they called me Ise, it´s about a girl who gets Anorexia."
"Is it good?"
"I haven´t read so much yet, but it seems really good, I´ve wanted to read it for a really long time."´Mike nodded.
"Have you… have you found your roundel yet?" he asked. I shook my head.
"Why would I, Jess have taken it!" I said without thinking.
"Emma? Mike sat down next to me in the sofa. "I don´t really think Jess have takin it!"
"Why wouldn´t she, I´ve seen her take it before." I muttered. Mike patted my shoulder. And I could tell, he was trying to avoiding the question.
"I´ll go make you some lunch." He said. "… I think there´s some pasta left from yesterday´s dinner. I could just warm it up…" Mike kept on talking to himself on the way to the kitchen, I shook my head and kept on reading.
The two weeks without TV or internet passed by, I crossed a box in my self- made calender every evening, and I was talking on the phone to Leon more than ever, and the day that I´d have to have tell Mike about going home only drew closer and closer.
Things had started going missing, first my roundel, then Carmen´s necklace, then some of Frank´s letters from his grandpa. I had always thought it was Jess who was the guilty, but at last, both Jordan´s favorite- CD, and Jess´ own bracelet went missing, so I had to give in, I mean, why would Jess steal from herself.
Of course, because I couldn´t watch TV, I didn´t watch any else of the DVD:s from Leon. But at Saturday morning, at September the 29:th, finally I walked over to Mike, and asked him about the next clue.
"Musical," he said, it didn´t take that much thinking before I ran up to Rick´s room, and because Mike had answered me "bird." I searched through the above of the lockers, I soon found the DVD on top of one, and jumped down to the floor, from the chair I had been standing at. And then ran downstairs and to the living room. I put the DVD and found that it was the one with me and Leon.
The first clip was from when Leon held me as a new- born.
"Gosh, he looked young then!" I said, and heard spread giggles and laughters from the others. The rest of the clips during silence.
One of the clips was from when I learned how to Swim, Leon walked next to me, ready to pick me up if I sank. But I didn´t.
The last of the clips, we were back to where Leon held me as a new- born, I started screaming, and he looked really freaked out. Until he started singing, and rocking me, then I stopped screaming and just looked up at him with big eyes. And then the screen went to black again. I took it froom the player, and turned to Mike.
"Next clue?"
"Colors." We hadn´t had the time to paint Jess´ room since Tee moved out.
"Oh, no. You´re NOT going into my room." Jess said. Jordan spoke up.
"I think she has to Jess, Mike´s already hidden the DVD there."
"It´s fish Emma." Mike said, I nodded.
"Hmpf." Jess muttered something I couldn´t hear, I ran upstairs, laid the DVD on the desk in my room, and then I walked into Jess´ room. I laid down on all four, and then spotted a DVD under the bed. I crawled under the bed and took it, when I spotted a necklace, that looked really like Carmen´s missing necklace. I pulled the box out in the light, oh yes it was Carmen´s, I opened the the shoebox and yep, there was all the missing stuff… oh boy, sweet revenge.
So, stopping there. I didn´t get no reviews on the last chap, so please review this one.
