I'm back! - Creative Thursday & news

Hey guys!
I am back from my Godmother's, as of Monday, but I was super tired and didn't really feel like posting - sorry! And I've been busy Tuesday and Wednesday, with my cousin over and seeing an old friend with Lauren and Megan (she's recently started her blog, go check it out now. You should definitely do that. ;D )
But you're getting a post today before I leave for London - but more about that and other things later on. First, Creative Thursday!

She clutches her train ticket, not letting her one chance of freedom slip through her fingers like sand. Her left knee bounces, the balls of her feet just barely touching the ground. She stands up and paces along the platform, staring into the blackness, waiting for the train. She sits down again and bites her thumbnail, glancing down the track every few seconds. She picks up her empty coffee cup, then places it down again - she doesn't dare get a new one now. She could miss her train, and that would end it all. This is her one chance, her only chance to get away from them. All she needs is to get on that train and she is free. She prays that nobody will try to strike up a conversation, that nobody will sit next to her, that nobody will recognise her. She lowers her head, hiding the lower half of her face in her warm scarf. Her stomach growls, angry at her for not eating anything. But she couldn't afford the time it would take to grab a burger or a doughnut. She was risking it grabbing a coffee, but she was so tired, she was afraid she'd fall asleep on the bench by the side of the tracks and miss her train. She would buy some food on the train. She could wait. All she needs is to get on the train.
'Of all the trains to be delayed, why this one?' She thinks.
She un-tucks her hair from behind her ears, letting it fall across her face, hiding it from strangers.
'I am invisible.'
"Um.. Excuse me? May I sit here?"
She glances up, cursing in her mind. A tall boy, a couple of years older than her, stares down at her with warm brown eyes. He pushes a curl of brown hair out of his eyes and smiles nervously at her.
"Sure." She replies. This is the last thing she needs.
'Obviously not as invisible as I thought.'

Well, I hope you liked that! It's just a quick thing that I might use in a story at some point.
Right, news.

I am off to London tomorrow and won't be back until Monday. I think I will post sometime on Tuesday, because I'll be tired and unpacking on Monday. The post will probably be pictures of London and stuff I bought, so that gives you some idea. :) I'm so excited!

You have 10 days to enter my writing competition. Information about that here. Make sure if you are interested in entering, you enter by the deadline - 31st August, midnight, your time. I have had 12 entries so far, which is amazing - a lot more than I thought I would get! They are all wonderful!

Urgh, it's raining. *sigh* Let's hope it's better weather in London this weekend!

Right, well that's all I think. Bye guys.
Thanks for reading ♥
