I. The Nursery
Ember lived in her nursery for the 다음 few months, only being let out occasionally to go to the toilet. All she saw were the four walls around her but it wasn’t all bad.
The room was painted a pretty sky-blue and the carpet was thick, fluffy and a deep midnight blue. There was a 침대 and a huge white wardrobe with the most beautiful, 구식 clothes inside.
Rich velvets cloaks, soft 모피 stoles, bright silk dresses, every item of clothing needed to make a young lady of society look beautiful.
But Ember was not a young lady of society living in Victorian times. She was a thirteen 년 old girl living in the 21st century with no parents, no 프렌즈 and a life of imprisonment stretching ahead of her. She spent all of her time either at the tiny window staring out at the village below 또는 at the 책상, 데스크 writing. There was a plentiful supply of paper and pencils and she wrote stories about fairy-tale creatures, fair maidens and dashing knights.
She didn’t know this but Abraxas would take them to her uncle while she slept and he would read every one of them. It hurt him to see that every evil sorcerer 또는 villain was described as being exactly like him. He regretted having shouted at the little girl, his temper had always been short and years of living alone, mouldering in his chamber caused him to be rather awkward with people. But his pride wouldn’t let him apologize, he wasn’t about to beg forgiveness off a little girl!
And so he remained, too proud and haughty to put things to rights while his niece languished alone in her room and cried herself to sleep every night. Eventually his guilt grew too much for him though he would never show it and he decided to go abroad for a while. Abraxas was to go with him and he would leave the girl to take care of things. Before he left he sent Abraxas with the keys to every room in the house to give to Ember. She could go where she liked he didn’t care. Ember was delighted yet frightened at the prospect of freedom.
“You can’t leave the mansion but 당신 may explore wherever 당신 like.” said Abraxas as he handed her the keys. “There are exactly 100 rooms in this house and I’m sure 당신 will find something interesting in each one. But be careful. 당신 never know what 당신 might find.” And he left, his coat-tails flapping behind him. Ember clutched the keys her 에메랄드 eyes wide with excitement. She was free. She couldn’t leave the house but there was a hundred rooms in the mansion and she could go where she liked. Some of her old spark seemed to come back with the promise of freedom and a little colour appeared on her 도자기 cheeks. She resolved to start exploring as soon as she could.
Her uncle left the 다음 morning.

Her uncle left the 다음 morning.
but now its over
and i am not going back
had my 심장 broken
had my dreams blown away
it only took 당신 a second
to rearrange my whole day
I use to know you
but now its over
and i see that now
당신 blew me away
far from here
and i couldnt make it back
but i bet 당신 knew that
I use to know
someone like you
he was friendly
but i left him behind
in the rain
in the cold
where i couldnt see him
i hope you're different
it would help
if 당신 werent exactly like him
nice to know you
but i must go
and protect my soul
how nice of 당신 to stop by
but please go 집 now
I use to know you
but now im long gone
and it feels great'
to leave that burden behind
i wont see 당신 again
i wont be there when 당신 fall
just know that i
wont pick 당신 up again
Thursday
Kyle is the worst boyfriend ever! The party ended with me in a coma. Apparently there was alcohol in my drink. I had an overdose and it almost killed me. Kyle swears he didn't do it. I want to believe him. I really want to. I know Kyle had done it because I know saw him poor something in there. At first I thought it was water 또는 something to make it sweeter. It wasn't water. I couldn't go to school today because they were pumping the alcohol out of my system 또는 something. I'm not entirely sure what happened. All I know is that for a couple if 분 I was pronounced dead. My heartbeat soon started thumping again but I was in a coma. My parents were so worried. I thought for sure they would be dead from shock. Kyle is banned from coming near me. My dad implied that rule. My mom kept crying whenever she talked to me. All she could manage to get out of her mouth besides whimpers were muffled words. I don't think I'll be seeing Kyle for a while now.

What a change Such a dramatic change
Once I was small and ignored
Now I'm called when their bored
또는 looking for a friend
To talk to till the end I use to be invisible
Now I feel invincible
They can't hurt me
Look at what I can be
This is new
Something almost true
That great feeling
Was somewhat appealing
But soon disappeared
Whenever I neared
Now I am small
No longer tall
Completely ignored
Always bored
It happened so fast Invisible in the past
Then became invincible
And immediately back to invisible
It changes everyday I don't know what to say
Maybe it won't stay the same
I'll be forever lame

Tuesday
The preps have got on my nerves for the last time. They decides to expose my crush on Kyle. How dare they? Who do they think they are? Their leader was like we all know that Laurie likes Kyle. U was all like please, I so don't. Then we got into this huge argument. Jennifer, L. J, and Tammie had my back though. Jennifer started trash talking their leader, Carly Louis, and they rest of her desperate followers. Kyle interjected and said that if I liked him then it wasn't any of their business. This is why I like the boy so much. After school when I was walking him from school, Kyle caught up with me. He told me that he thought those girls were cruel and should stay in their own business. I couldn't agree more. He whirled around suddenly and kissed me! I was utterly speechless. He started stuttering and then sprinted off in the other direction before I could say anything. Yep, that 키스 was everything that I had imagined it would be but why do I feel like it was so wrong.
