Danielle's Pov:
I can't believe that they actually thought I would be cool with having a party with people I don't even know. People who think that they know me, but have no idea who I am at all. "Oh my god you are so beautiful." "Oh she looks just like her mother." "Look at her glowing skin" "We're so happy to finally meet you." Those were just a few of the many things that I heard within seconds. I was being pulled from one person to the next.
"Okay guys give her some space. Mom I thought I told you we weren't going to have a party yet." I saw Lisa say to a cute older lady.
"Please Lisa when have I ever been someone who listens to what anyone says. You know me sweetie." She said to Lisa with a smile. She was definitely something else. Maybe that was where I got my confidence at my old school from. She walked right up to me and gave me a big hug. Wow everyone around here is really touchy feely. "I am so glad we finally found you sweet heart. It's so good to finally have you home with all of us." She said to me as she held me tightly.
She moved away from me to look me in the face. She just kept looking at me. "Is there something wrong with you? What's wrong with her Lisa? Why isn't she talking? Why isn't she happy?" She asked Lisa and me. That made me mad. Was she serious, did she really just ask those questions?
"Are you kidding me? Did you really just ask me that? Would you really like to know what's wrong with me. Well where do I start? You guys haven't been in my life for seventeen years. Then All of a sudden you show up and expect me to be okay with everything that is going on. I've gone through hell my whole life, not once getting a break. Four days ago I finally got the break I had been waiting for, and once I had it you guys showed up and took it away from me. Everything I had ever wanted was just ripped away, because you wanted me 'home'." I screamed at her. I didn't even realize that I was crying until I felt the tears roll down my cheeks.
I looked around to see everyone looking at me with shocked expressions. I can't take this right now. I can't deal with being the fat girl who's crying. I quickly turned around and ran out of the house. I really didn't know where I was going, or what I was going to do once I got there. I just wanted to be away from everything and everyone around me. I looked over to see the barn I saw earlier when I arrived.
I ran inside the barn and shut the door. I looked around to find that no one was in it beside the animals. I sent a silent prayer to god. Then I quickly took it back because this is probably the only good thing he will ever do for me in all of my life. That thought only made me cry harder. Not even god had any love for me, the fat girl. I cried for what seemed like forever, before I finally stopped. Once I had finally stopped crying I looked around the barn. It was a beautiful barn, and so many of every kind of farm animal that you could think of was in there.
Out of all the animals I saw there, only one of them truly caught my attention. It was a beautiful big black horse. Probably bigger than any horse I have ever seen. She was absolutely beautiful in every way. She must have sensed that I was looking at her, because she quickly came over to where I was. She stood close enough for me to be able to see her, but not close enough for me to touch her. I put my hand out waiting for her to come closer. After a few minutes she finally came close enough to let me touch her.
I couldn't believe how soft she was. She must have liked my touch because she kept pushing her head towards me. I just kept rubbing/touching her for what seemed like forever. I didn't even realize that there was someone else in the barn until I heard a gasp. I felt like my heart jumped out of my body. I touched my chest to calm my breathing. I looked over to see Luke standing there, looking completely shocked.
"How did you do that?" He asked me.
"Do what?" I asked back. I honestly had no idea what he was talking about.
"How did you touch Princess. She never lets anyone, and I do mean anyone touch her. No one who has worked here has ever been able to come close to her. That's why we call her princess, because she acts like one."
"I don't know I just walked up and touched her. It's not like I did anything out of the ordinary or anything," I said to him while looking at the ground.
It stayed silent for a while. "Wow I would have never guessed that a city girl would be the one to melt old Princess's heart. She must really like you to be letting you touch her." I looked up to see him standing right in front of me. I just shrugged my shoulders. It really didn't seem like a big deal to me. "Are you okay Love? I know that was a lot to handle in a short amount of time."
"My name is Danielle." Was all I said to him. I heard him chuckle from in front of me. I looked back up at him. He really was so hot. Why was he here? Did he actually care about me? Wow did I actually think that. There was no way a guy like him would ever be interested in a girl like me. He was probably more into the tooth pick kind of girls. The ones that were extremely bitchy but still got the hot guys anyway.
"I know your name is Danielle, but that's something everyone is going to be calling you. I want a special name that only I call you. Therefore that's why I called you Love." He said to me with a smile. Was this guy serious? You could tell that he was definitely a charmer.
