Chapter 1: Caroline's Point of View

Setting: "Darling Bookstore"

Time: 13h00 Thursday

It was one of London's very very very rare sunny days; a day that you feel you could just spend the whole day outside just lounging and reading. So that was what I intended to do, well if my mother didn't catch me at it.

She has already caught me reading while on my shift inside about a bazillion times this week, so I doubt she'll be even close to happy when she sees I've completely gone and left the store.

You see, my mum owns a bookstore called "Darling Books". Everyday after school I go home, which is the bookstore, finish my schoolwork then walk downstairs, into the bookstore, to start my shift. I love books, so it isn't necessarily a bad thing, and my mum needs the help.

Still, it's hard being in a bookstore and not being able to read the books. Also, I don't see it as a problem because there aren't any customers! I'm not kidding, there are none at all. Nobody wants to buy books at a store anymore; they want to read from kindles and nooks. But she sees my reading as a problem because I have (Non-existent) customers to attend to.

Oh well, c'est la vie as Countess Luann would say!

Anyway, I still intended to go outside even after that whole rant because, as surprising as it is, there were no customers today and it was beautiful outside.

What should I read? I looked on the shelves trying to find something, but each book I already read and a lot of them I read more than once. Maybe "Jane Eyre"? No, I've read that one the most.

I decided to go look in the backroom of the store where my mum hides the newly shipped books so I don't find them. I'm always doggy-earring the pages of books, but it's not my fault if I can't find a bookmark! So, don't tell her about this…

When I was walking to the back of the store, I was very surprised when the bell to our little bookstore rang.

I looked up to see Kate, my best friend, running in screaming, "JOSH ALERT! JOSH ALERT! HIDE ME!" I grabbed her hand and opened the door to the back room and she hurried in. I knew what to do because unfortunately, this isn't the first time this happened. A second after I closed the door Josh, the possessive, evil, and insane ex-boyfriend of Kate punched the door down with his metal fist! Well, he didn't break the door down and he doesn't have a metal fist, but he did open it in an aggressive manner.

"Where's….Kate?" He asked between abnormally large gasps for air. He had what looked like a tracking device in his hand and sweat was pouring down his face, which was contorted with RAGE!
