Destanie

I had come back from shopping, bored and dreading to go home to find that my parents weren't even there. I was glad I had got my key. I unlocked the door, trudging through and glad mum and dad weren't there. It made it easier to relax when I was at home by myself. I raided the fridge, walking into the shiny metallic kitchen that reflected light everywhere. I grabbed a coke and a piece of chocolate cake, closing the fridge with my foot as I walked into the loungeroom. I sat on the couch, kicking off my flats and turning on the TV. There was some moving on, a pirate one. I recognised it as Pirates of the Caribbean. I watched it for a while, beginning to yawn. I started to feel very sleepy but couldn't be bothered to turn off the TV. As I was about to get up and go to bed I must have dozed off because I never moved.
I woke slowly, rolling over. I could feel grainy sand underneath mne and I opened my eyes immediately. I looked around me. I seemed to be on an island of some sort. grey blue water surrounded me, on a white sandy beach. I stood up and looked down at my clothes. I was wearing three quarter jean cutoffs and a powder blue singlet. The land around me was beautiful but for some reason I felt less happy here. I was freaking out. The sun was hidden suddenly and I looked up to see storm clouds collecting. Thunder cracked and then it started raining, soaking me almost immediately. I ran up the sand dunes to find shelter. There was a tropical forest up here and I ran for the shelter of the trees.
