laugh and pat his arm. “ I showed her what trust and love felt like again.” He smiles. And looks back at his twin sister. He’s been suffering lately knowing his sister was in pain and now he has some new light to his face seeing his sister smile.
Later that night we all went inside. Everyone went downstairs to clean up when my dad and merideths tell me to meet them in the living room. He and merideths were sitting down when I came in. I sat down next to them and then moved to the rocking chair. Rocking myself I waited for them to start talking. “Melody as you knows you’re getting married.” I jump up. “You weren’t joking about that?! Im legit is getting married! An arranged marriage! You do know were not living in the old ages this is the year 2012! People get married because there in love not because their parents arranged it!” I stand in front of them. I can hear my dad sigh and then proceed like he didn’t hear me.” So you shall be married in a couple of months. Of course you guys can stay here along with Sebastian and carra and and Darren and sammi. And of course well take Shayas with us to the new house.-“wait what?” He rolls his eyes. “So yeah.” I look at him anger in my veins. “To who?”
“Aiden”


I hear my name and I knew she knew. I can hear stomping down the stairs and then she’s there. “I hate you! Yo knew and you diditn tell me. Im guessing the beach the boat that was all part of: let’s get her to like me so that when we marry she won funking hate me plan!” her eyes start to water. “You lied to me!” I can see her shoulders curving in and shacking. “After everything I now have to deal with this shit!” I look up at her eyes, at the green eyes I fell in love with and saw tears, tears I caused. I don’t really know what to say. I look down and stare at my arms. At my hands curled into small fist at my sides. “Im, sorry melody” I try to apologize. I look up and her face is tortured. “I am too.” She whispers to me and then turns around to walk away. Her hair covering her face and her shoulders shielding us off the way she is hunched over. There is a small awkward silence following and I can hear Sebastian huff out in frustration. “Great, now what?” I shrug and look back at the doorway she left. Temptation urging me to follow her and fix this.
I run inot my room and shut my door tightly behind me. I start school in exactly three days and thast when my plan will go inot action. I hate him at the same time I love him, but he will regret not telling me.

What is that sound?! I turn my head over to my bedside table to my small green clock and the vibrating green numbers portraying an unearthly hour. I press around for a while on the cold metal until I find the plush small sleep button. Once the boorish ringing ended I sat up and rubbed my eyes. Yawning I get up hearing Mara, my sister in the other room. Showering and getting dressed I grab my book bag and walk downstairs to find my parents eating and reading the newspaper, the sunlight shining through the windows highlighting my mothers dyed blonde hair and fathers black brown hair like mine. Simultaneously they sip there coffee and turn the page the silence comforting. “Good morning mother, father” they look up and my mother places a cold hand on my arm. “Good morning Aiden, how was your night?” I shrug. “Well, I slept a little less than planned.” I can see her pout and goes back to reading. “We will be leaving for the airport once you guys leave for school, were sorry we won’t make it back in time for your back to school night next week but we will be back in a few weeks. There’s money in the jar and don’t forget to drive your sister to the center after school, and please don’t forget to call me.” “Yes mother. Dotn worry.” She smiles a warm smile and hugs me before retreating upstairs. My father past my head before following and I stand there looking across the street to Darren and carra house seeing their car on I know they were leaving soon. “Mara you better be down in two minutes im going to go in the car!” I scream up the stairs and I can hear her yell at me to not rush her. Rolling my eyes I walk outside to a nice September morning. Walking to my car I get in and honk the horn rolling my eyes again when she gives me the finger coming out of the house. My sister, my younger tenth grade sister. Wearing shorts that don’t cover her butt so much makeup and purple highlights in her short blonde hair. Her blue eyes like my mother’s surrounded by black stuff and her like 5 piercing sin her ears. “Oh Mara why can’t you dress normally?” She rolls her eyes. “Just drive”
Never would I have dreaded school like I was dreading it today. Just to know that all these mystical figures were going to be roaming the halls and I would have to deal with werewolves sniffing me and vampires drinking blood in the nurses office kind of scared me. And the fairies. They were short pixies and they glowed. Glowed! I look down walking to my first period class AP English. Opening the corresponding door I sit down in my seat and look up at the clock. Please let this be over quick.
Once the last bell rang I ran to the football locker room and got changed. Ready just to start. Jogging around the field I can see carra and Sebastian holding hands walking towards his car and Darren giving sammi a piggy back ride, her laughter loud and careered over to me. Melody was alone in the back laughing and yelling at Darren. She looked different. I don’t know how and what but she looks like she changed. I hope she didn’t hear about the rumors. “Hey guys!” I wave over to them and they all wave back before getting in the car, melody rolling her eyes at me, slamming her car door. Yup she heard the rumors. God damn. Driving home sammi and carra would not shut the hell up. Pulling up the drive way in sammis house they jump out having to get ready for their double date tonight. I drive down the street to mu house locking the doors I walk upstairs to my room. Doing some homework I finish my math and lay down on my bed playing with a pillow. A few minutes later a knock on my door startles me. “Yeah!” I yell out and come in a well dresses sebatsian, his hair combed back and dark jeans and a nice black polo. “Well, well, well. What do we have here?” he chuckles nervously. “Do I look okay?” I laugh at the small red tinting his checks. “You look awesome, have fun with sammi okay?” he nods and ruffles my head. “Ill is back later.” I nod and follow him down the stairs. “Have fun!” I yell running to the kitchen. Grabbing a slice of pizza I munch on it before grabbing my book and sandals and sun hat and running outside towards the lake.

I get home late from practice to see carra and sammi walk downstairs all dressed up. “Were you guys going?” they giggle, “were going on a double date silly! By have fun being alone!” they laugh walking outside and I stand all alone. I make myself a sandwich and eat it standing up by my kitchen window. Looking outside I see someone in a connue reading. They had a huge sun hat that flops over their eyes. I shrug and go inot my bedroom to shower and put on some running shorts.

I float towards the middle of the lake and start reading chapter 22 of this really good book. When suddenly things got boring and started lying back on my elbows, a song coming to mind.
Running up and down the walls, finding something’s yet nothing at all, every day I try to see myself.
Nothing is working, everything’s a mess. Things just turn n out to be not so great anymore.
Remember when we used to run into the sun and laugh away the day underneath the clouds.
Remember when we used to sing along to the radio to our favorites song not worried how we sounded. Do you? Do you remember when you say that you love me you say that you needed me there. Do you? Do you remember? When I was there and you were here but we always were together forever my love.
Thinking back I try to find the memories.
Running forward trying to mold a future.
Never falling yet never standing up straight never did I fell so lonely
Remember when we used to run into the sun and laugh away the day underneath the clouds.
Remember when we used to run into the sun and laugh away the day underneath the clouds.
Remer when we used to sing along to the radio to our favorites song not worried how we sounded. Do you? Do you remember when you say that you love me you say that you needed me there. Do you? Do you remember? When I was there and you were here but we always were together forever my love.

I was jogging around the lake when I hear her singing. I stop jogging bending over to catch my breath. I couldn’t make out who it was but I knew it was a girl. I sit on the dock and wait for the small boat to float back. I help pull it in and she lifts her head, the floppy hat no longer covering her face. “Melody!” I look at her and she looked mad. She pickups a bag and starts walking up the dock when I grab her wrist. “Melody” I whisper. “We need to talk.”

How dare he tell me that we need to talk? I already knew everything. He has a damn girlfriend, he’s a jerk. In school has completed someone I knew I never had met. Standing in front of him in my yard he is looking at me his lips moving words leaving them but no exactly getting to my ears. “Just leave me alone.” I let go of his grasp and walk upstairs. Looking back once watching his face stare at me.


December. A week before Christmas.
It was snowing and I stood against the cold glass of my bedroom window. Everything was covered in a white blanket of white powder footmarks evident of the mailman’s track leading down the front steps. White flakes start falling before blink again and I sequel with happiness. Oh I miss the snow! I shower in a daze of happineness and get dressed in a pair of skinny jeans and a long sleeved black off the shoulder shirt, putting on my faviuorite yellow owl necklace on. Brushing my curls out I put my faviuorite Beanie. Letting my bangs peek out form the hat I let
