As she started running as quickly as possible through the woods. She held onto a small dagger and she only had anger reaching her emotions. Her heart was racing and beating so loud that you could probably hear it in outterspace. Millions of things were racing through her mind. Then she heard something far off into the distance.
"I Got A Pocket Got A Pocket Full Of Sunshine." Brittan was woken up by her phone going off. It was her mom.
"Hello?" Brittan said in a hushed tone with her eyes still half closed.
"Britt, I just wanted to make sure you got to Emilie's okay. Remember everything happens for a reason baby." My mom was always the worried person in my family after my father suddenly past away a few years back.
"Mom, It's only for my first year of High School. Nothing is really gonna happen" I tried to stay as positive as possible cosidering I haven't seen my sister yet. When I got to her house her door was unlocked so I just walked in and went to the closet open bedroom I could find.
"Just one year. Well, I have to get back to work. Call me after school. Bye." Then she hung up right before i could even get a word out.
I walked out of the room I slept in. I heard a female voice coming from the living room. I was a bit worried because I haden't seen Emilie since I was 7 and now i'm 15. Now she was 22. She left with my aunt when she was 13 to grow up else where.
I walked into the living room and not only was a female there standing. There were also 3 people sitting on the sofa. One was a red-headed female and the other two were male. The female standing looked at me and she picked up a dagger on the table.
"Who are you!!??" The tall standing blonde yelled.
"I'm Brittan. Brittan Drake. I was sent here for my first year of highschool by mom Amanda Evans. I was looking for my older sister Emilie." I tired to stay polite even though I was scared and was ready to run screaming.
The blonde's eyes became more caring and she dropped the dagger and ran and held onto me as strongly as possible. The only thing I was thinking was if I should be scared and if i was gonna end up being kidnapped.
"I'm Emilie. I-I-I thought you died when you were 7. At least that's what I heard. Where is dad? Why did mom change her name and where is she at?" Emile asked a lot of questions.
The only thing I could even say was, "Since when were you blonde?" I just stared at her because she looked so different.
"I changed a lot since I left home. After all I was 13. My hair just went blonde over time. Now back to my questions." She seemed so interested in what I was going to say.
"Well, I didn't die as you can see. Dad was the one who died. No one knows how. Well if mom knew she wouldn't tell me and as for mom she is just being her. She sent me here for a stage only you could help me with but I'm completely clueless." I felt like I was giving her a life story.
"Dad died? That means that. Oh nevermind. Don't listen to me. Anyways, how old are you now?" She seemed like she was over thinking a bit.
"Wow, You forgot how old I was. Very nice but i'm 15." I tryed my hardest to ease the awkwardness with sarcasim.
"15 and you are just going through the stage. I can't belive it. It's happening." She seemed happy but worried at the same time.
"What are you talking about Em?" I questioned her.
"Stage. As in teenage-" I cut her off before she could even finish that sentence.
"Yeah, I didn't need to know that." I smiled
Then the other lady accidently dropped her bag onto the floor.
"Oh how rude of me. Brittan this is Juliet Reed as she pointed to the redheadded lady. This is Ryder Woods and Marcus Julien. They're close friends of mine. You'll be attending school with there families. Anyways, Juliet is swinging by the school anyways so she will take you there and stuff and she will pick you up and a few others up and bring you here."
"Oh. Doesn't Juliet have to get home?" I asked
"Nope. Me, Marcus, Ryder and a few others like here with Emilie. It's a pretty big house if you go through the whole thing. Were gonna be setting your room up while your at school doll." Juliet smiled
I thought it was pretty cool. Juliet seemed so sweet and warming. As I walked into where I was sleeping and I threw on my black shirt that had "Forever & Always" written on it in maroon. I had on a dark dark brown mini leather jacket it with basic blue denim skinny jeans and black all stars. I grabbed by bag that was pretty much empty. I brushed my hair which was pretty much it considering my hair was natrually very very curly.
I ran back into the room and Juliet was already in her car so I just squeezed Emilie and ran out to Juliet in such a hurry.
"Your gonna love Silvering High School." Juliet seemed really excited about this.
"That's good I guess." I never really liked school
"Well you haven't liked many schools so i'm sure this one you will like. Everyone who goes there loves it." She smiled
"How did you know I didn't like school?" I asked
"Just a hunch. When I first met Emilie she was the same way. You two just seem so alike." She laughed.
"I was wondering. Since I don't wanna bother Emilie just yet could you and me maybe have lunch today and talk about her every since she has been here?" I awkwardly smiled
"Well I can take you out for lunch so we can do that. I know that school schedule as well as I know everything about me and Emilie." She started laughing.
"Awesome." I laughed
"Well here we are." As we pulled up to a huge school that looked like a castle.
"Wow" I mouthed as I got out of the car. I really wasn't expecting this at all.
Juliet grabbed my arm and took me into the building right into a stone office. It was so beautiful. It looked so new yet so old. the lady at the desk looked super young.
"Hello Juliet. How can I help you?" the lady asked sweetly
"Hello Mary. Well, I brought in Emilie's sister Brittan to start school" Juliet smiled really brightly
"Emilie has a sister?" She asked
"Yeah. That would be me" I smiled while i walked up to the desk.
"Well let me just print off a schedule Ms. Drake and if you need anything you can always find me here." The lady seemed like a motherly figure.
I took the white parchment and started walking down the halls looking for room 553. As I finally got to the door. A young teacher opened the door.
"Hello. Could I help you?" He asked
"Um yeah. I was looking for Mr. Lerman's class." I concentrated on my schedule
"That would be my class. Come in please." He smiled brightly
I walked into the classroom and he took me into the front of the room.
"Please introduce yourself." He sat on his chair.
"I'm Brittan Kendall Drake. I currently live with my sister Emilie Drake after my father Devon passed away and my mom Amanda is working Miami."
"Your a Drake? Around here all the Drake's are famous" A boy grinned
"Well I'm from Miami. So I dno't know much about my family in Salem. Sorry" I looked down at the ground.
"You will soon." ANother boy chirrped in.
"Well Ms. Drake. Why don't you have a seat next to Ember." Mr. Lerman pointed to a girl in the back next to the two boys who were talking.
I walked to the back of the room and sat down.
"Now class you will go to a study hall. Griffin, Aaron, Ember please show Brittan to your study hall." The teacher smiled a half smile.
"I would be glad to show the new cutie around." The tall blondie smirked.
I followed him and the Ember and the other boy out the door hoping that they would at least be my new friends. If I had any chance.
