I. am. Joey

A little about me seems like the right thing to start with. My name is Joey Campbell. Okay, really it is Josephine but I hate that name. I refuse to answer to it. I was born and raised in California. I had a happy childhood. I was the apple of my fathers eye. I got away with stuff if I smiled the right way. *giggle* My mother was always a bit odd and as a child i never understood, but as I got older I realized I was different. My mom is what we call a muggle. Or in our world it means has no magical powers. My dad, a pure-blood stole her heart and made her his wife. She was always very scared of his powers and he chose to give up all his family ties in Scotland and England and stay in Cali with my mom. I am a half-blood and my own mother is scared of me. The first day I ever showed any signs of being magical I was treated like an animal by my mother. She couldn't stand the sight of me. My relatives in Scotland said I could some visit but I never really made time for them. I met this guy at the bookstore. Evan, the sweetest guy. We spent my vacation together and one night my mom called me and told me I had to come home. She told me my father had fallen ill and needed me. I never really told anyone why I left but I ran away leaving my family and my heart. Getting home to see my dad alive and well I threw a fit. After that things were difficult at home. My parents always fighting and me miserable. Dad had finally had enough when mom told him how worthless he is. They split up and I packed up to move with him. As soon as we got our stuff out of the house he got a job offer in London so instead of apartment hunting in Cali we moved into a hotel and let his company find us a house instead. We sent our belongings and now we are just waiting to head to London to start over. I just hope that Evan still wants to be my friend. I am going to call him and see where we stand. If he met someone else I will still be his friend. I owe him that much. I need to get ready for my goodbye dinner. I can't wait. Goodbye Cali... Its been great. But, I am ready to start over. Dad and I will be okay.... Hello London! We will make the best of this!
