Life is hell when your like me, me [reading books for 7 year olds TXT] 📗

to worry. I tried remembering how I had gotten here. But I couldn’t remember. The last thing I remember is telling Shelly bye. But after that everything gets hazy.
In the back of my mind I hear this little voice telling me that it’s dangerous here, and that I need to leave. But with it being so dark, I wasn’t able to. While I was searching for a light switch, I had been looking for a door handle. But I couldn’t find one.
I began to worry. Had someone kidnapped me? What am I doing here? This cannot be good. All of these thought raced through my mind at once.
I thought about calling for help. But knowing my chances, nobody would hear me. I sat on the floor and began to wait.
With it being so dark I had no sense of time. For all I know I could have been sitting here for hours. To fill the silence in my mind I began to sing a song.
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down in a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn,
Send me away with the words of a love song
Uh oh, uh oh
Lord make me a rainbow, I’ll shine down on my mother
She’ll know I’m safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh and
Life ain’t always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain’t even grey, but she buries her baby

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve had just enough time

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down in a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I’ve just enough time

And I’ll be wearing white, when I come into your kingdom

I’m as green as the ring on my little cold finger,
I’ve never known the lovin’ of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There’s a boy here in town who says he’ll love me forever,
Who would have thought forever could be severed
The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

So put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done

A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singing
Funny, when you're dead how people start listening

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when you're really gonna need them, oh

The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time
So put on your best, boys
And I'll wear my pearls

I loved the song because it was talking about making the most of the time you’re give. If its two years or twenty years. Make the best of it.
I must have sung that song five times before a door opened from somewhere around me. I stood up sound and alert.
Suddenly a light turned on. And for a few moments I was blinded. I turned around and saw a man standing there.
I knew the face that stood before me. It was a wonder I don’t remember those striking blue eyes, or that sullen looking face. AS he walked closer to me, a voice in the back of my mind told me to fight. But I didn’t. I was just concentrating on where I remembered him from.
It wasn’t until he was two feet away from me that I remembered were I had seen him before. This was the man from the coffee shop. The one I was finally going to ask his name. I didn’t know if I should be scared, but I wasn’t. I felt a little uneasy, but that was it. I opened my mouth to speak, “What am I doing here?”
The man just shook his head before speaking. “You were walking home. And you just fell to the ground for no reason. I was driving by when it happened. So I put you in my car, and brought you to my house.” The way he spoke was mesmerizing. I would have believed anything he said. In the back of my mind that little voice told me that wasn’t the whole truth.
“Well this is all very kind of you. But I need to get home. I have to prepare dinner. And my sister is probably worried sick.” The last words were like copper coming out of my mouth. My sister hasn’t really cared for me since the day our parents died. I knew I was being ungrateful by leaving so suddenly, but he stopped me.
“I already called your sister and told her the situation. She didn’t seem to worried. I also called your friend shelly. She was really worried, and said she would be over right after work.” I looked into his eyes to see if he was telling the truth, and it seemed that he was.
He stood in my way so trying to leave was going to be a little hard. But since he had already called shelly, I decided to stay. And plus I wanted to find out more about this man. “Fine. I’ll stay. But will you please let me out of this room?”
He stepped out of my way. “Is there a light you can turn on? It’s kind of dark.” He snapped his fingers, and the hallway was illuminated by torches on the wall. All along the sides of the walls were statues of men, women, and suits of armor. It was dark and creepy, but still amazing.
I walked down the hallway utterly amazed by the art that lined the walls. It wasn’t until I was about to turn left down the hallway, that the men stepped in front of me “No one is allowed there except me.” His arms were stretched out accordingly. When he said that I had a plan going on in my head. Soon I would go down that hallway and see what he was hiding.
“Alright I won’t go there. But will you at least show me to the outside?” When I said those words, his eyes lit up like something was wrong. But he led me down another hall and to a large door. He stood back as I opened the door.
A light breeze opened my senses. For the first time in a while I could smell the fresh air. It smelt like heaven on earth. It’s a wonder that I felt like this. As I looked around I saw beautiful gardens, marvelous statues of people and animals, and a seemingly never ending driveway. As I looked more closely at the things around me, I realized were I was.
I turn around quickly. “You’re the one who owns this house?”
He smiled at my response. “I do. It was passed down to me just a few months ago.” That was right about the time he showed up.
I was amazed that he owned this house. I had always dreamed of living in a house that sat on top of a hill, and had a mile long driveway. “You’re so lucky to live here. Its such a beautiful house.”
A smile spread across his face. “Yeah. I love it here. But sometimes I get really lonely in such a big house,” He stopped for a moment like he was considering something. “You’re welcome to come back anytime. But I have to warn you, it gets a little weird around here at dark”
I felt honored. No one besides Shelly has ever invited me to their house. What if I came over to often, and it started to annoy him. I would have no were to go. So I decided to take his offer. “I’d love to. Thanks.”
“How about we go back inside and get you washed up for dinner. Shelly will be here soon.” He offered me his hand, and I willingly took it.
He led me back to the room I was in earlier.”There’s a bathroom back there in the door to the left. Under the sink is clothes shampoo and other necessary things." He took me to the restroom then left.
It was a wonder that he was being so nice to me. Never has anyone been so nice to me. I Got undressed and went to the shower. The one thing I didn't expect was the warm water. For a while I've been taking cold showers. And it felt magnificent to take a warm shower.
I stepped out of the shower smelling like roses. I wrapped a towel around myself and left the bathroom.
The chill of the room on my naked skin was wonderful. I walked to the bed and saw a pile of clothes, and a note. I read the note first. "Dear Aspin, I left you these clothes. I hope you like them. Shell has gotten here and we will be waiting for you under the gazibbo. Yours forever and always, Damon
I put down the note and picked up the first dress. They were all beautiful dresses. There was a black sundress, a blue and white dress, and my favorite out of all of them a simple black dress. Ok, I wouldn't say simple. It was more like something a vampyress would wear. Normally I don't want anything to do with vampires, but this dress was to beautiful to pass up. So I decided to wear it.
Once I had it on, I saw how it hugged the curves og my body. I looked in the mirror and saw how pale I was. I I was a little darker than the vampire from twilight, but not much.
I stopped looking at myself and left the room. When I left the room I realized I didn't know were the gazebbo was. But I guess he guessed that I would think of that, because there was a sign on a statue, it said, "Go straight, then turn left." And it went on like that for a few minutes.
After about ten minutes I made my way outside. The back was even more magnificent than the front. To the left was beautiful pond, with what I assume is a natural waterfall. In front of me was a dark wooded area. And to my right was a path that led to a white gazebo.
I looked down at what I was wearing, and I hoped that it would be acceptable.
Once I got closer to the gazebo, I could see Damon and Shelly u=in a serious conversation. When they saw me all talking stopped. Damon rose and offered me his hand. “You look beautiful.” He led me to a empty chair and sat down.
It was strange to hear those words coming from a man. But I accepted them with a smile and sat down. “So Aspin. Are you alright? I came as soon as I could.”
“Besides me not being able to remember anything, I would say I’m doing fine.”
“That’s good. I was so worried when I got call from Damon
