Taylah's P.O.V.

Hey, I'm Taylah Rose, I'm fifteen years old and I loathe most of my life! I have golden blond dead-straight hair which reaches just down to below my shoulders. I have shiny blue eyes and a slim figure. So yeah, that's kinda me. Wait no...

Animals and music make me. No, no, no, I'm sorry, they are me! Ever since I was five years old all I've wanted to do is work with animals soooo, so badly. Well either that or write personal, heart raking music and sing it like never before. But nun uh! Not for me! I'm just the boring old popular one with pretty hair and expensive clothes. Nothing exciting EVER happens to me! But you know, the whole world doesn't revolve around me, my friends are pretty cool.

There's Adrianna, Mikayla, Naomi and of course, my bestest friend in the whole wide world, Francesca (Fran for short). We've known each other practically our whole lives and spend most of our lives together, horse riding, ice skating, slumber parties, makeovers, and I could go on, but I'll spare you the torture of my list as long as a piece of string. But yeah we're practically like Sisters. Or, Should I say we were best friends, we had known each other our whole lives and we did all of those things together? And finally, we were like Sisters!

As you may have figured, Fran is no longer with us. She died only last week; I'm still trying to get to grips with the whole thing and it's NOT easy, I miss her like crazy and school just isn't the same without her. I tend to cry myself to sleep at the moment, and none of this makes any sense!

She never complained about stalkers, blackmailing, or anything like that! Her Mum and I found her in their back garden lying on the ground with bruises all over her, a knife slit across her neck and (what must have been the killing wound) a stab through the heart, the knife missing as if all the murderer wanted was to rip a piece out of her kind, loving heart to make it rotten and evil. Fresh blood was splattered everywhere, on her, on the grass and also, on the house's wall that faced the garden. I thought that was quite weird but dismissed it when I realised that my best friend had actually just died!!! Another weird thing though, is that, there were about three purple and black butterflies fluttering around, mindlessly. They were almost hypnotising. Just sooo weird.

Flashback:

"Taylah, come here NOW! Look what you've done to my favourite pair of shoes!! You know how I feel about you wearing my stuff without my permission! Especially outside in this gross muddy garden thing!" Screamed Fran, annoyingly

"Sorry Fran, I didn't mean too; you know that! And anyway, I love your garden. I think it's bloody beautiful!" I said, trying to finish off with a compliment to lighten the mood.

"I suppose it's ok, I guess I can forgive my best friend! Hehe! But seriously though, you must have a weird taste in things if you like my garden!" Said Fran, offensively

"Well if you count liking anchovies, then yes, I guess I do have a weird taste in things!" I replied smugly, quite proud of my retort.

"Haha, very funny bugs bunny!" Said my best friend, sarcastically "But honestly you're just weird, but I love you anyway!"

"Haha, luvya too!" I giggled

Normal:

"Taylah, hurry up! You're gonna be late to school!" Shouted my Mum up the stairs to me. I swear, she must have been trying to deafen me or something!

"Sorry Mum, I'll be down soon, just finishing getting ready!" I shouted back, even louder as payback. I just finished doing my make-up when I got a text from an unknown number...
