The New Kid

INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND

"Eunice! Darling, it's time to wake up or you will be late for your first class." my mom calls from the kitchen, the smell of fresh pancakes fills the house along with that heavenly salty smell we all know as BACON.

Little does my mom know that I have been awake for the last hour and a half getting ready for my first day back after a long Spring Break. I look at myself in my full-length mirror and admire my outfit. I decided to wear my new denim with a floral crop top and a pair of sandals. I decided to let my hair down for once, but I put a matching scrunchy in my bag just in case I need it today. My long honey blond hair cascades down my back in long, loose curls and I did a light and minimalistic make-up with my favorite light pink lip-gloss. I look pretty damn fine if I say so myself...

I make sure everything I need is in my bag as I walk downstairs and into the kitchen where I find my mom and dad sitting at the breakfast corner drinking their morning coffee. I kiss their cheeks good morning and sit next to my dad as he wraps me in his arms hugging me tight. "I cannot believe my baby girl has grown so much and now she is a gorgeous young lady." he says as he looks down at me and smile. (If you don't know yet, I am such a daddy's girl.)

After scolding him or ruining my outfit we laugh and eat breakfast in silence. About an hour later all 3 of us are in the truck on our way to my school...that is untill tragedy struck...

Jordan POV:
RING RING RING

I jolt awake in bed at the sound of my phone ringing...I reach for it and see my sister's photo on my screen...immediately I turn icecold...I sit up in bed and answer the call.

Jordan's side: Hey sis...are you okay...Why are you calling at 3 in the morning?
Eunice's side: Good morning sir...sorry to awaken you this early...I am Dr Holden...you were the only other emergency contact on Eunice's file.
Jordan's side: Docter...why are you calling me? My parents are much closer if it's an emergency.
Eunice's side: Sir...that is why I am calling. There has been an accident involving your sister and parents. I am sorry to have to inform you over the phone like this, but I am afraid you sister is the only one who is still alive and she is going to need someone to take care of her as she is still a teen.
Jordan's side: Docter...are you saying my parents are dead?
Eunice's side: Yes, I am so sorry. But please...you need to come.

With that the call is ended. I jump out of bed waking Bella up... "Sweetheart, wake up we need to leave for a few days." I say that as I just grab shoes and a jacket and throw it at her.
"What is going on? Who was that in the phone? Why are we leaving? Where are we going?" She asked so many questions and I am already on my way to my car shouting that my sister needs me and that we have to get going.

After about 2 and a half hours of driving I pull up in the parking lot of the hospital my sister is admitted in. I run into the building frantic looking for her until I stop in front of a room and my heart breaks... there she is...so small and broken...

"Good morning...are you Jordan?" I hear a voice ask from behind me. I turn to see an older man and nod..."I am the Doctor who called you...your sister has a few bruises and scrapes that are not to serious and then the broken shoulderblade and leg. She is going to recover slowly but she is going to need your support for a few weeks...and then...she has not woken up...so she does not know about your parents. Are you going to tell her or should we get the psych doctor?"

"NO! Uhm...sorry...I mean I think it might be better if I tell her." I turn around and see het green eyes start to open and my heart sinks...
