To Change

Chapter one

How the heck did this happen? How did I break down so low, to the point I put all my trust in them. Now I'm sitting in a cold store room because it's not safe in the kitchen anymore. My phone vibrates and I quickly glance down at it, " of course you would message me now" I think to myself.
"Sorry about this, they never come at this time of the month. Hopefully their out of here soon".
My reply, "you better be".
So turns out I'm different from most people, apparently I have some gene that rarely gets passed on and now I'm the one they need to protect, so the extremely gullible me trusted them.
Them is the QPS ( quite protective services), they find the special people and fight for them, some die it battle, some live on as heroes forever. Like Clay, he has protected some pretty messed up people and continues to fight for me.
  Let me introduce my self, I'm Elizabeth Water, but everyone calls me El. Let me start from the beginning, that first day at school.

Beep beep beep
I roll over and turn my alarm off and think to myself ,"whoever invented this is a real kill joy" and pull myself out of bed.

" El! Hurry up" my best friend Rose was here and I just got out of bed, great. Mornings are quite honestly the hardest part of the day, especially when everyone around you loves the morning. And I hate it.

"Coming" I grumble as I walk to my chest of draws. As I turn around my bedroom door opens, Rose.
" morning sleeping beauty" she says with a smile.
"Funny" and I walk to the bathroom to get dressed, when I come out she's on my phone lying all over my bed.
"You ready?" I asked her. Of course she said yes. So we set off for school, the dreaded place that we go everyday when we could be sleeping, I like sleep okay?

The first thing I realised was a new kid, black/brown hair and dark brown eyes, he was wearing a tie! All the girls were staring at him, while his long hair was not covering his eyes but showed that he doesn't care about his hair. He looked to old to be in a school, he looked 16 but like he had the world on his shoulders, something about him made me want to say hi.
"Someone's interested" Rose said as she winked and gave a small smile.
"Not even, I was looking at Georgia, she looks upset again"
" mmhhmmm of course you were. It's okay your secrets safe with me"

I playfully pushed her and we both gave a small giggle. As we walked we talked over a lot of things, her parents are filing for divorce and she's not doing to well so mostly about that. We both did the usual split at the oval and started walking towards our classes, as I got to my class I looked at the usually empty seat next to me and see the new kid, the one with the brown eyes! So I try to look cool and unbothered my the new vibe that the class has as I make my way to my desk.
"Hey" he says
"Um hi, I'm El" was it too soon to say my name? Normally I wait until the other person has said theirs, just don't be an idiot.
"Clay" he smiles, he has AMAZING teeth, so straight and white. I should say something or he'll think I'm some retard.
"It's nice to meet you".
