Break by Lauren Colman (digital e reader TXT) 📕

I was in the car, someone in the back was arguing with the driver leaning forward and pressing the ipod, changing the music and then the driver let go of the wheel and leaned towards me, to the ipod. I was familiar with what was about to happen, a flash of lights, the squeeling of metal and the shattering of glass and now I was dead. I was in darkness, a faint tick, tick, tick could be heard and then I realised I was in bed. It was all a dream, it was scaring me now because I have had this dream ever since I found out I was moving away from the town I had come to call home. I was burning hot, it was because I always keep the window shut and my covers are really thick and silk. I rubbed my eyes and pushed the cover to the end of my bed, swung my legs over to the sideand got out of bed. I grabbed my cup off my bedside draws and then went to get a drink. My bare feet made a noise, I walked down the hall way and then I could hear the deep snores coming from my brother's room, the vibrations could be felt through the floorboards. The snores stopped as I passed his room and I quickly hurried downstairs towards the TV, I skipped several steps at a time and spilled some water on the cream carpet. I put the cup down on a table then dived onto the sofa, only to find james, my brother's friend on the sofa. His eyes flew open and he stared coldly at me then pushed me off the sofa onto the floor, I landed with a bang. " why did you do that?!" James stood up and now towered over me, I was only like five foot three and he was at least six foot. His lazy tired voice replied " You hit me," I could hear anger in his voice but I just pouted at him and shook my head in disagrement. His face was going slightly red now. " I never knew you were there," it was kinda true, I did know he was sleepuing but I definatly never knew he was sleeping on the sofa. We don't really get on, after all who could? He was crazy, annoying and hot-headed too but it did not help that he said I was those things too. I was about to give him the shouting at of his life but then my brother walked in. He taunted and teased saying" Kepp it down you old couple, you'll wake our parents up and do you really want that?"

"WE ARE NOT A COUPLE!" we yelled at the same time. My bro just smirked and sacarstically said," yeah right, whatever romeo and julliet," I scowled at him. I really hoped he was going to shut his fat gob but then he sneakily said" oh yeah, I forgot to mention loverboy is moving to the same place as us, isn't that great for us, his dad lives there are closish to us,"

I think I am going to have a heart attack, my breathing quickened and I screeched," WHAT! my worst nightmare is coming true, at least here I don't have to see him 24'7 but he better not live next door or one of us is going to have an early death,"

I punched james in my fit of rage, but he hardily felt it and I grabbed the only remote for the TV then stormed upstairs. I slammed my door as loud as possible, so they knew I had gone to my room and that they won't get the remote till I decided to unlock my door which will be never. I have kept it locked ever since james slept one time, I had woken up and he was staring at me and it was sooo creepy and disturbing. I had thought that he was going to do something horrible to me, I payed him back though, I cut a massive chunk of his hair out and he had to get his head shaved. Then whenever I saw him I used to yell baldie at him, I was only twelve at the time. I heard banging, it was james and my brother coming up the stairs. They started to bang on my door, I ignored them but then they started to shout," Elena open the door now! Give us the remoteor we will break your door down," Obviously not believing them I encoraged them saying,
" come on, I bet you can't do it," I continued to laugh at them. Then I looked at the hinges, they were starting to come off the door frame, omfg they were serious about breaking my door down over a stupid remote which is going to end up being packed away soon. The door groaned then made an odd squeeling noise, I jummped back as it fell and there was james with a stupid grin on his face.

"Elena where have you put the remote..." is it just me or do guys have a lower IQ or a lower sense of common sense, I will never know. Happily trying to show no fear over this mad idiot I chirpped," Don't move any further or I will pepperspray you and I am as serious as you were about breaking my door down,"
Without warning he lunged towards me, I acciddently dropped the pepperspray so I ran towards my walk in closet and shut the doors. He yanked and pulled but then he finally opened my closet he evily said," You can't hide it forever," Then I sprayed hi with deoderant in the face and he howled in pain," How could you spray me with pepperspray owwwww I'm dying, it's melting my beautiful face," I frowned at him then looked at him weirdly. "It was only deoderant," He stopped squirming then shrugged his shoulders. To taunt him about his failure I waved the remote in his face, I may be smaller and weaker but sure as hell I am fast. I ran and ran as far as possible as I could get away to him, my destination was the sofa. I jumped on and put the episode of gle that I had missed last night. I turned around to smile at them both, " too late, I guess your both watching glee now," My brother began to whine," How can you do this little sis," Giving him a ugly scowl," I am older than you! Little bro. And I can do this happpppily."
Glee was good, I enjoyed it but I couldn't believe what quinn dressed like now. She looked like one of james old girlfriends. I quietly giggled to mself but got strange looks from james and sam making me realise it wasn't that quiet. After my glee episode I decided to be nice and give them the remmote for a while, I went to make breafast, my parents were awake and rather mad about the door. I cooked some scramble eggs and bacon, I put it on my smiley face plate them turned around to get a fork. I turned around then found sam and james helping themselves! "DO YOU MIND!" james just smiled lazily then said," nah, I don't mind at all," I grabbed the still hot pan, sam backed away after all he was a little sensible because he learned the hard way that if you eat my breakfast you will get hit with the pan. James just continued to eat my food but purposly made faces, I slapped his hands away and was about to hit him when sam said," james leave her breakfast, she needs all the food she can get so she can grow taller just look at her, she is well tiny,"

Elena snorted, well something that sounded like snort, it was hard to tell because she has a quiet musical voice. I'm actually glad I'm moving to the same place because she is actually ok, what the hell am I saying? Nah I find it fun to get under her skin and annoy her but she is as equally annoying, after all she forces us to watch those awful shows and gets us into trouble a lot. Elena can get away with a lot of things, nearly all the adults around her say to anybody in a five year area of her age say things like " be careful, she's not as big or as strong so no rough play" You would get what I mean if you saw her, she has snowy white hair which has a silver shine to it, pale skin and a few pale freckles. Then big grey eyes with flecks of violet and I find them very freaky and unusual also she is like five foot nothing. I haye the way she just floats through life being admired and adored by children, animals and everyone. Children climb all over, people always touch her hair or gives her a pat on the head and give her everything she wants.

"Oh, bye elissa I'm going to miss you and promise that you will visit, I will try to as well,"
Elissa is one of my best friends, she knows james and finds him as annoying as I do, she is taller than me but who isn't ? She's very funny, smiley and convinces me to dothings I would never ever do. I give her a hug and say goodbye, when I'm sixteen I'm going to get a car so I can drive and visit but my parents say I will make new friends. The place I'm moving to is a small town in the middle of no-where near a lake and a beach with lots of foresty areas. Apparently it will be better and the fresh air will do me good but I don't want to move. I climbed into the van then saw james sat next to me.
"No way are you coming with us!", he was smiling, obviously enjoying this too much and unfortuantly this means if he is coming I will have to sit next to him for another six hours at the least.
" Yep I'm coming along because it's easier, I only have clothes and stuf with me so it will fit down there by your feet," I was really angry w3ith him now, that's my feet space so what if my feet don't actually reach the floor usually I will put my feet where he is sitting now. He always has to ruin everything.

Four hours later, now Elena had her head rested on my shoulder, I didn't dare move in case I woke her up and thought I was touching her hair or something. I
