A/N: Hello there readers,
If any of you have Wattpad, please go an give a follow to KHowardisasmolbean. She is an amazing human being and is guaranteed to put a smile on your face.
The three of them completed their journey to the gardening club in utter silence. Alice wasn't bothered much by that though- she was too concentrated on learning her route around the school. And pondering over why Juliet and Lauren were acting suspiciously.Juliet stopped outside of a classroom that had the letters W07. She took in a deep breath and lifted her hand to knock soundly on the door. In mere seconds, the door was flung open by Gwen, who looked deeply troubled by something.
As soon as Emilia's fingers brushed against Alice's hand, she could feel a sizzle of electricity pass between both of them. Alice could remember feeling Emilia's soft, yielding hand in hers, and she liked it.Emilia rested her free hand on Alice's chin and lifted it, stroking the surface of her skin with her stubble fingers. Alice craned her neck to look into Emilia's eyes, absorbing in all of her beauty.
The next day rolled along.When Alice pushed back her covers, the sun was shining powerfully in the sky. She smiled and leapt to her feet, preparing herself for the next day of school.Now she knew it wasn't as scary, she found herself happy and motivated for the upcoming school day- something which she hadn't felt in ages.
The two girls had a lot of fun together up in town. They entered almost every shop they saw and bought an assertion of clothing, jewellery and makeup.Alice let go of herself completely and focused on having a good time with Emilia. They managed to keep a sturdy flow of conversation for the entire duration of their day; they both had so much to talk about.When the heavens suddenly decided to open, Emilia suggested heading off to a coffee shop and Alice agreed, wanting to ge
The whole incident made Alice feel rather guilty.She felt guilty that she had destroyed such a wonderful to end to both of their days by asking a personal question. She felt guilty that she had upset Emilia by being overly curious. She felt guilty about taking advantage of Emilia's 'secret for a story' scheme.When she hopped onto the bus for school on a breezy Monday
The rest of the members surrounded Alice, protectively. Each one of them had an expression of pain and remorse on their face."I tried," Juliet mumbled miserably, "I tried making the club sound boring and dull so that Alice wouldn't join.""I should've broken Emilia's rules and told you the truth," Gwen said sadly, "I'm so sorry, Alice. I was frightened about what would happen to me if I did..."
Life in England had never taken such a dark turn.She no longer woke up each morning with a spring in her step and smile on her face. She woke up, practically dragging her feet behind her dreading the day ahead. Alice preferred Tuesdays and Thursdays- the days that she did not have the gardening club on. On those days, she would spend all of her time with the other members, exchanging jokes and compliments to ease away one another's pain. Alice had no idea what she would've done if they weren't there for her.
A/N: Because it is almost Christmas, I present you a happy chapter where nothing goes wrong. You're welcome :) (It's also a little shorter than my usual chapters and I apologize. I wanted to update but then again I wanted to spend quality time with my family so I spent less time over it)As half-term started, A
Thank you so much for reading 'Death Among The Dandelions!'This is my first ever original novel that I've written. I've really enjoyed writing this, hopefully, you enjoyed reading this!This is also my first ever book on Goodnovel.
Within minutes, Alice was squashed into the back of a Taxi, sat beside her Dad. The streets of London rolled past the car window in a mere few minutes. Alice knew that it could be one of her final times seeing London.Whenever she felt like crying, she pushed her emotions firmly downwards imaging her dream life in Sheffield. Her fingers sought the comfort of her red polka dot bag and the dandelion bracelet dangling loosely around her wrist. The smooth metal carving of the dandelion made Alice cherish the good times that she had in London. She only hoped that she could make even bette
The final day of school came by too quickly for Alice's liking.When she woke up in the morning, she felt oddly empty and strange. She couldn't quite believe it was time to say goodbye for good.It was also going to be her last time waking up in London.
Saying goodbye was never one of Alice's strengths.She hated saying goodbye. It was usually her final words to somebody when she knew she never would see that person again. It was the last word she said to her mum, the last word she ever said to her old school, the last word she ever said to her dead Grandpa...Alice lay across her bed, glancing around her empty room.
"What?""It's in Sheffield." Mr Smith repeated, sighing heavily, "Alice, it's such a big opportunity for me-""Does that mean we're moving?" Alice butted in, ignoring her Dad. He gave her a grim nod."It's for the best, dear. After wh
As the day dragged on, Alice was used to the funny looks and dirty glares. She got them everywhere. In the corridors, in classes, at lunch, on the bus...To Alice, she did her best to push them out of her mind. Friday's concert was such a massive knock and left her feeling so broken that the glares were almost nothing. Compared to what she really felt on stage, she knew that this wasn't as bad.She felt a great deal better, knowing that her friends stuck by her side. They comforte
The second the recording had finished, the entire audience was hushed. Alice reckoned that if somebody were to drop a pin, everybody would hear it.She nervously gulped, removing her hands to look up at Emilia.Emilia was staring straight at Alice, with a funny sort of satisfied look. She looked rather pleased with herself. But at the same time, her eyes were showing her a slightly darkened look, a look of guilt and pity.
She heard Gwen let out a small cry of surprise from the behind the piano, taking her hands off the keys as if she had been burnt. She stood up and looked straight at Alice, demanding an explanation. Her eyes caught sight of somebody standing up against the microphone and her a look of anger displayed across her face.Alice scrambled to her feet and turned to look at who had pushed her. Emilia was her first suspicion, considering everything that had happened. She didn't expect it to be...
Before Alice knew it, she was boarding the bus on Friday morning, biting her lip to contain in her nerves.To Alice, the nerves inside her didn't feel like a couple of butterflies. They felt like rampaging elephants leaping about in her chest, making her feel quite sick. She awkwardly fidgeted on the bus, reading through the lyrics on her phone for the fourteenth time.Whenever she started imaging the worst-case scenarios
