Michelle Helen Welles has recently turned eighteen, she is over protected by her dad and her mum, blames her for everything that's wrong in her own life, she cared very little about her eldest child. Michelle has been bullied most of her life, whether it be at school or college or even at home, a place that's meant to be a safe place. That didn't bother Michelle she got on with life and whatever it threw at her she dealt with, besides she lived with the fairies most of the time, so most stuff sailed over her head, she was always wrapped up in her own world, but she had her proper friends, she had old friends, aunts, uncles, neighbours and grandparents, she's spent so much of her time with the oldies, that she is way older in her head than a mere eighteen year old, she knows things that an eighteen year old shouldn't know, she doles out advice and when asked and gives her honest opinions, something she's good at telling you, the truth and not candy coating it! A spade is a spade and if you don't like it walkway, before she finishes her speech. She had her other friends, people she saw from the corner of her eye, they are the ones who tell her stuff and the stuff they tell her is spot on and frighteningly accurate, all well and good the power she has but it's never helped her just others, pity too because she'd love to know if she would ever get a boyfriend, someone special to kiss someone to talk to, someone to take her places, someone who woke and thought of her and as they slept thought of her, and as she was now getting old at eighteen she doubted she ever would get one! So she busied herself with her hobbies she was in college learning to be a chef, something she had a natural talent for and was really rather good at it, her baking was second to none and her food was to die for, she loved to read and run, running was her everyday get out of the house thing, she had her fluffy bunnies to talk to and she had her dancing, yes she had her beloved ballroom dancing and this she was excellent at, even good enough to be a professional, but alas she was just too shy... Then one day she noticed someone watching her, not just someone he was everything she'd ever dreamed of, if they had read her mind and drew him out on paper this was him, and then when she spotted him once he seemed to be following her, she was in a dream world and imagining all sorts of happenings between the pair of them, then one night he was there in her dance class and smiling, had he come for her? unbeknownst to her he had, but Samuel Ethan Todd, the twenty two year old, architectural apprentice, came with his own problems, his many secrets, his own demons and a life that was possibly too much for the good girl next door that she so obviously was, but one thing for sure was he was going to try, whatever it took however long it took, she was the girl who for some reason had changed him, and they had never spoken and until very recently, Sam was sure she had as yet to see him but, he watched her for weeks, actually months if truth be told, but now he had to have her he had to tell her, and it had to be soon the others were closing in and he had to have her, something told him she was the one, but was he too much, could she handle the trouble that came along with him as part of the baggage?
