Okay, so this is not only filled with my totally pathetic and overrated songs, but it has a little bit about why I wrote the song in the first place. And, just so you know, I'm a country girl. So what I write is intended to be country... Sort of like Taylor Swift's early days, I guess. But I don't want to end up on a pop station. D= If I can do anything with this music, anyway...

------------------------------------
"Unscratched," by Victoria Amber ---

About the song: This is my most recent song, and it's probably the strangest of them all by far. :addow_xD:. I wrote it because recently some... Boy troubles... Have made my life a little less interesting to me, and a good friend turned it around and possibly opened up a new door for me. So here's the song. Hope you like it?

The song:

Walking slow
I wonder if you know
That you couldn't be
More special to me

When I'm with you
It's so easy to
Imagine the music to a country song
And pretend we're dancing along
That fits our story
Perfectly

(chorus)
This is something new
For both me and you
Like an unscratched CD
One that came brand new and free
(end chorud)

Talking slow
I wonder if you know
That this is one of those days
You make me feel like one of the suns rays

When I'm talking to you on the phone
It's so easy to zone
Out in La La Land
Imagining we're hand in hand

(chorus)
This is something new
For both me and you
Like an unscratched CD
One that came brand new and free
(end chorus)

Starting slow
I think we both know
That this is going to be something else
A little more than something special

(chorus)
This is something new
For both me and you
Like an unscratched CD
One that came brand new and free
(end chorus)

(chorus)
This is something new
For both me and you
Like an unscratched CD
One that came brand new and free
(end chorus)

"Why," by Victoria Amber ---

About the song: Okay, more boy troubles. Caused by the same boy, written before "Unscratched" though.

Chapter One

His third wife.

I shook my head, unbelieving. My dad used to be such an awesome guy. Now I see him as a lowlife with nothing better to do than meet women, go on dates them a few times, and pop the question. Dad, you were so much better than this. I wished that I could say it aloud, but the deadly quiet kitchen was impossible to say anything during, and I didn't want to upset him.

"Alexandria, feel like having breakfast with me?" he asked, sounding a little hopeful.

Again, I shook my head. "I can't." the hope fell from his eyes like a rock would sink in water. "Remember? Nate's helping me fix up the truck today." My pick-up, I recalled. Needs more than just one fix-up.

Dad sighed. "If you would have just let me buy you a new car, honey, this wouldn't happen all the time. You're lucky that Nate is a good mechanic."

"There is nothing wrong with my truck, Dad."

He gave me a look. "It's a 1962 Ford, kiddo. Basically, a piece of crap. Get the picture?"

"I know what my truck is. But you forgot the F-250 pick-up part. And that it's shamrock green." my good humor was wasted. He merely turned the page in his newspaper, holding it up so he couldn't see my glare. That's when I saw the article about a job in the local diner. "I'll be home later. Call my cell phone if you need me, or call the garage. Okay? Bye." I didn't let him protest, and simply grabbed the keys to my truck and went out the front door.

It was a gorgeous day. There was nothing like the sun. It was too bad that it gave me a migraine if I was out in it too long. I never bothered enjoying the sun, because it would just be covered up in the next few hours. Climbing into the truck, I stuck the key into the ignition and twisted it. Slouching in the seat for a minute, I closed my eyes, imagining myself away. The wedding was done with, and they were sure to get a divorce within a half year. I was sure of it; I prayed for it.

When I reopened my eyes, I felt a little dizzy, but I put the truck in reverse and backed out anyway. Changing to D, I put a little pressure on the gas pedal and turned up my radio. Normally, I would take my Border Collie, Elliot, with me to Nate's garage. But today I just needed to get out, and plus, I didn't have a clue where Elliot was. For all I knew, he could be in my bedroom. I hadn't let Dad know, but I was up all night, sick. It was amazing what a cup

:addow_xD:. I was using my USB Drive thing and noticed the 60k file. I went, WTH!? and just opened it. :addow_xD:. What do you think of my over 6-months-ago work? XD. Okay, there were italics on the file, but they don't show up here, and I'm too lazy to edit. :addow_xD:. So, here's the crap!

Prologue

Ever since I could remember, I'd always thought that the ending was just that. An ending. As it turns out, I was wrong. Dead wrong. And that mistake could very well have ended my life.
You know that since there's an ending, there had to be a beginning, otherwise, there wouldn't be much of a story. I learned different not long ago; I learned that there was never an ending to anything, because everything you did would just start up something else.
But, I don't want a new beginning. I never did, and I don't think I ever will.

All I want is my happy ending.

Chapter One

???Erin, Erin Hollow? Please report to the office. Your older brother is here to pick you up.??? the voice over the intercom startled me. Every pair of eyes turned to me, and I looked away, embarrassed.
???Do you have your assignment written down, Erin???? Mr. Henney asked. I nodded. ???Alright.??? once I left the room, carrying my supplies, I went to my locker, trying to figure out why Jack was picking me up. My homework was already done, so I would have had to worry about that. I took what I needed, as in, just my backpack, and headed towards the office where I saw the tall, muscular young man standing at the desk. He was tall enough to be my father, let alone my older brother.
???Hey, Erin.??? he grinned at me.
???Hey, Jack. Mind telling me why the heck you're picking me up in the middle of class without warning???? I raised an eyebrow. ???Go on. Dazzle me.???
???You'll see,??? was all he said. I sighed in annoyance. He signed me out, and out we went into the school parking lot. ???Our ride is over this way.??? he pointed. I followed his finger with my eyes, and at the end of the invisible trail sat a taxi. ???Don't ask me anything until we get there. All I'm sayin

I swear that Twilight is based on my life. Not, entirely, obviously! But, like 'Bella' I have pale skin, dark brown hair that has natural red highlights in the sun, and brown eyes. Now. Get this.

Bella's mom's name is Renee. My aunt's middle name is Renee. Her dad's name is Charlie. I have an Uncle Charlie. She drives a red truck, the vehicle waiting in the driveway for me to drive it is a RED TRUCK. We both have names that are kinda out-there: Isabella (Bellla) Marie Swan. Victoria (Tori) Amber Day. She moved from a big city to a small town, but she was born there... I was born in a small town area, but I was moved to Camp Pendleton, California, and then I came back a few years later (to the small town). She knows someone named Mike Newton, and my family knows someone named MIKE NEWTON. Someone in Twilight has a suburban, my aunt has a suburban. Her dad is the sherrif, my Uncle Red was a sherrif. She is prone to have accidents and or attract trouble of any sort. I was told just earlier by my mother that I am posessed by Bella Swan because I am such a clutz. And, though 'tis off the Bella subject, I'm a danger to myself because my name is Victoria and Victoria tries to kill Bella.

Oh, yes. My over-protective boyfriend has a quote. "Don't make fun of my sparkles!"
-headdesk- TOO MUCH IRONY!

Okay, I'm sorry. But I had to say it. >_< It has been bugging me for eons.

[EDIT]

Okay. There's a girl named TORI MEYER. With all this irony, there's a girl with my nickname, Tori, and the last name of the woman who started all the irony! :persevere: UGH.

[EDIT]

Just realized. Twilight, Bella and Edward are together. For a good while. (me and the one boy) and then in New Moon he LEAVES (just like this certain boy) and she practically dates her best friend (my CURRENT boyfriend was my BEST FRIEND)...

[EDIT]

Jeebus. Well, like New Moon, Bella comes to the rescue of Edward. I basically did JUST that with KODY. So, now that Kody and I are together, I'm really, really shocked. Twilight is a messed up remake of my life. :open_mouth:
