Chapter 1:

I woke up this morning and stared at my ceiling. It was nice and quiet in the house and I just lay enjoying the peace. My mind wandered to the list of things I had to do today: get up, get a shower, get dressed, go to work ect. I blinked myself out of my trance and began to get up, ready for a new day.

I should probably introduce myself, my name is Faith Williams. I'm nineteen years old and an only child, my parents died last year in a car crash, leaving me with nothing but their name. I decided to move to a quieter area of London and escape my once hectic lifestyle. I now live in a two-bedroom terrace house opposite Regents Park with my two best friends, Sarah and Nicole, living in the terraces either side of mine. I work at a small flower shop in central London called 'Millie's Flowers', alongside the owner Katie.

I decided to peel myself away from my cream colored duvet and head for the shower, I grabbed my towel and rest it on the sink while I waited for the water to warm up. After a few minutes of waiting, I stepped in and let the lukewarm water hit my soft skin, running down to my feet until it trickled towards the plug hole. I squirted a pea sized amount of my pear scented shampoo in my hand and massaged it into my hair, creating bubbles on top of my head. I rinsed out the shampoo and used the matching pear conditioner; after washing my body and turning the shower off, I wrapped my towel around my body and walked towards my bedroom. I put on my underwear first, then a pair of light wash skinny jeans, a floral top and some flats to finish it all off. I glanced at myself in the mirror and decided to put on some cat-liner to frame my bright green eyes, some mascara and finally my red lip tint; turning back to the mirror I smiled happy with what I saw, I then grabbed my phone and car keys and headed out the door.

"Hey Faith!" I heard Sarah yell from her front garden.

"Hey Sarah!" I returned, watching her plant some of the flower seeds I gave her during the week. I smiled to myself and jumped into my car, heading off to work.

As I arrived, I grabbed my keys and walked through the front door of the shop hearing the all familiar door bell. "Hey Katie!" I shouted to her, knowing she was in the back. Her tall slim figure walked through the door leading into the small room we have at the back of the shop, which Katie decided to turn into a living area for us. My back was facing her as I hung my jacket up on a hook by the back door.

"Hey Faith!" she said wiping her hands on her apron, trying to get rid of the excess soil.

"How's it been this morning?" I asked, seeing that the shop was fairly quiet.

"Surprisingly quiet. It's never normally like this." she thought, scrunching her eyebrows softly.

"Well I suppose it is a bank holiday." I reasoned, knowing it was always quiet on a bank holiday. She shrugged her shoulders and nodded in agreement.

"Faaaaaiiittthhhh!" I heard a childish scream that made my smile appear instantly. Katie often brings her four year old daughter Millie to work, she loves it here and is always a great help, she always makes us laugh too.

"Hey Millie Moo!" I gushed, picking her up and giving her a large hug, the smile never leaving my face, or hers. "You okay?" I asked. She noded her head silently with a smile still on her face, making me and Katie giggle.

"Want to help me with some flower arrangements?" I asked, already knowing her answer. She loved arranging the flowers.

"YEAH!!" she yelled, making me chuckle. I carried her on my hip over to the table before I set her down on the floor, picking up several flowers and asking for her opinion.
