Stand by the Bad

Moving to Kentwood

~ Marlyn POV ~

I opened my eyes quickly with the sudden sound of the break. I was still trying to come back into my senses and I looked outside, it was all dark. I can see the stars glaring at me from a distance and there was it, The Stark Mansion. My granny was standing outside with her open arms to take me in for a tight hug. I was so happy to see her other wise the only chance I get to see her was during the holidays. It is a Big mansion with 5 bedrooms and a huge living room along with a dining hall, gaming room, study room, personal library, a kitchen , 1 big garage and not to mention a full blossomed garden with 6 servants to take care of everything.

I suddenly realised that my parents were standing and looking at me with the love in their eyes. I just heard my stomach growling so much as I was really hungry. I was about to go inside by grabbing my mother's hand, but she stopped me and said " Marlyn, I guess this is our cue, we have to leave so that we can reach back to New York as we both have a flight to catch tomorrow. Oh my God!!!! my head spun for a while. What was actually happening around me. why things were so fast paced that everything was just falling apart. Few hours ago I was making plans for weekend to spent some quality time with my parents and now I'm standing next to my granny and my parents has already decided to leave , as they only wanted to make sure that I have reached to my granny's place safely, nothing else would matter now. It just they want to go back , so that they can start with their new journey, which doesn't include me. I started to feel more upset as I was thinking that my parents, I guess doesn't need me anymore. It was kind fo last stroke for me, I could not control my tears and ran inside the home and went straight to my room. All my hunger was gone, I does not want to eat anything now, just wanted to lay down.

How possibly everything went so wrong from the picture perfect. I was the lucky person to have everything and now within few hours I am here at a completely new place, with no friends, no parents, no coziness of my own room. Something inside me was telling me that something somewhere was not correct. 

I grabbed the pillow and a suddenly wave to tears fell through my cheeks, I was sobbing and all I could hear was the car engine was getting started and my granny was saying I will take care of her, do not get worried and do good in your career.  My heart started beating really fast, at that time all I could think was to ran down stair and hold their hands, so that they will not be able to leave me like this. But again  as I am a good daughter so I could not gather that much courage to disrespect my parents order. I kept on sobbing and I do not know when I fell asleep again.

~ Saturday~

It was a weekend but I was with my granny, not with my parents and things looked pretty different now. I over looked from my balcony and found that It is a beautiful morning and the sunrise view is so amazing from my balcony. It is a very peaceful morning and I was enjoying it and then suddenly I heard a very irritating noise, that noise interrupted all my inner peace and I saw some loud screaming bunch of boys riding their bikes and stopped at the house next to our Mansion. There were 5 bikes riders with 4 pillions out if which 3 were girls and they all were seems like bad news to me. I turned my face other way around and tried to concentrate on the beauty of the surroundings but then again they started their bikes and left. I turned around and saw that one of then was parking the bike and moving towards the front porch of the house where a middle aged lady opened the gate for him. 

Suddenly I felt 2 eyes gazing towards me, I am is sixteen, but overly mature. I am not boy crazy. And would never say, "Oh my God, he is so hot" and fawn all over the guy. I am fairly aloof about these things but this time it was different

He was tall with a trim build, not overly muscular.

short Jet black hair with Bright blue eyes

Strong jaw , Romanesque nose, tan colour skin, and then I noticed that He glanced over at me and I felt my cheeks grow red. I don't usually blush that much, I quickly took a step back and went inside to my room. My heart was beating really fast.I laid down on my bed and tried to process everything just happened. One second I was looking and him and another second I was running towards my bed. Oh God what he will be thinking about me that his new neighbour was staring at him. 

I felt so embarrassed that I decided to stay inside for the the rest of my weekend.
