Break by Lauren Colman (digital e reader TXT) 📕

think she tried to stay awake as long as possible but by three hours she was almost asleep with her head leaning forwards as she was asleep then sitting up as she woke and she continually did that but ended resting her head on my shoulder and falling asleep. Her feet were facing the door, she made me move up because her feet can't reach the floor which is quite funny.

Two hours later...

An annoying voice whinned, " Wake up lovebirds, aw you look so adorable asleep together... I will treasue this picture forever and I guess all of facebook will too," Sam smirked, elena was still asleep until he shouted,"Elena, wake up!!!!!" Her eyelids fluttered then she woke up.
Her expression was price less, a mix of fury, disgust and embarrassment. " What was MY head doing on YOUR shoulder?!?"

Elena P.O.V

James looked at his shoulder, then his face wrinkled in disgust and half tried to keep from laughing. " Ewwwwww, you drooled on me," He had his shirt pinched through his fingers and was tugging it away from his body. I looked at him shocked then replied," I didn't."
He shoved me out the van as I was getting out.

Ashs P.O.V

The new family were moving into the old home which had once been abandoned but recently it had been fixed up, I had never really realised it had bewen fixed up, nobody has lived there for generations because it was the home closest to the woods and everybody know the rumours about the wild animals which killed a group of boys. I hope there wasn't any boys, because they would do something stupid but yet I do wish there are some. Out of the van came two boys, a blonde, a dark haired boy and a tiny fair-haired girl. I think things around here were going to get a lot more interesting.

Elena P.O.V
We had already most of our belongings sent here and the home decorated, everything packed out as if we had come back from a day out and that our home was waiting for us. I had a look around, the kitchen was bigger than our old one and it was more modern, I liked homes modern and old fashioned, walking into my room was like walking into a different era but I have changed a lot since from then. I raced upstairs, pushing my brother aside, looking for my room secretly hoping I had the biggest room. I had the biggest room which was a relief, In my old home I had a den connected to my room and my bathroom but here I had three big rooms joined. A bathroom, a room with a cinema in and another room with all my stuff in. I think I might like it here.

Sams P.O.V
I looked into my sisters room, it was really old fashioned apart from the massive TV, laptop and all the modern things, the bed was a nightmare. I don't know who would have a bed like that, it was a double bed with a massive headbored which was metal intwinned with metal flowers and all girly things but her colour scheme was greys and whites. Her room was actually quite dark and slightly deprressing.

Ashs P.O.V
"Hiya Lara, did you know some new people have moved into the house that used to be abandoned, we will have to be on the watchout won't we, just incase any of them decided to have a wander in thwe woods..." Then I said sacastically " We don't want them to get eaten by evil savage wolves do we," Lara chuckled then nosely said,"Mmm yeah guess we will have to, so anybody in paticular moved in?"

" A girl thats it... well and I think two boys," I saw her smile at the part about boys.
" Do you think they go to our school or the one on eastside?" she pulled her black hood back and took her skull earphones out, I could easily hear what she was listening to it was some gothy band called My chemical romance or somehting like that. Giving a slight yawn I said," I dunno, I'm gonna go for a run so see ya," I couls see her smile widenning and she teasenly said," Don't you mean your going to spy on them," there was a slight pause and she continued," or is it the girl, well she looks like she is six,you perv," Shaking her head she put her hood up and went into her little world of gothy music. I gave her a wave goodbye but I don't think she noticed.

Elenas P.O.V

I could see the forest from my room, the lake as well which was on the left side of the forest, maybe I should go hiking or explore. Sounds like a great idea and I only have a few days till I start school so why not? I went to hunt down sam and 'sigh' james if they would come too so if a bear wanted to eat someone it wouldn't be me.

"Come on, please why not? Please for meeeeee," I fluttered my eyelashes and did puppy eyes then started to pretend weep. " Then we aren't going, why would we want to do it for you," I gave james a scowl at his snarkiness, I looked at sam thenbegged some more. He just simply said," No, james isn't going so I'm not either," I stopped acting sad then bluntly said," What if I make you a deal?" That got both of their attentions, I really hoped james didn't answer because he would do something stupid but happily sam answered first," Make us breakfast till we start school," I nodded my head, yanked both of their arms till they got of the sofa.
The woods were dark, uninviting, the pine trees were tall making us look like mere ants and me a speck. James and sam were rushing ahead and they had my bad with all my stuff in, I called their names asking them to slow down and wait but then they were gone. A crash of thunder was heard, then it began to drip, drip then the rain got heavier and heavier. Sam and james had my umbrella, they had a pair of very gay teddy bear raincoats which were a very bold pink. I was only wearing thin black tights, tight grey shorts, a thin flimsy top which was now showing my black bra and sticking to me in a way which I disliked. My sneakers were soaked, muddy and filthy, my jewellery was cold as the rain drops on my skin. I was wet, cold and utterly alone.

I slowly treaded, hoping it was some awful joke, the trees gave some protection from the rain but still very little. Fear crept inside of me, making my stomach feel tighter and in knots, I was getting blown back in the strong wind. Blowing against my face, making my wet hair flick in my eyes causing a stinging pain. I shouted but it was a feeble attempt, it was like the wind was blowing my voice away. I saw a girl walking at a fast pace, she was wearing leggings, a grey jumper saying " I was born a bitch, what's your excuse?" she was holding her umbrella up and it was like the wind didn't bother her at all.


I ran, not caring if twigs snapped under my feet, branches caught me, mud ruined my shoes. I stared at her stormy dark eyes which looked almost black, her dark black hair was tangled and in knots but she looked firece. I was afraid of her slightly, she looked at me with pity but acted as if she could smell my fear. Her voice was soft and gentle," Aw what happened to you,don't you know it's not safe to travel in the woods alone..." I knew what she was going to say as she stopped talking especially someone like you.

Looking slightly confused I pointed out," But yourrr al-oone, h-have seen two boys-s,
where a-am I" I was shivering maddly, it made me stutter. She started to walk forward so I did too, she grabbed my wrist and began to drag me along. Her voice wasn't so gentle now in fact it was quite rough and snappy," come on, just face it, you are alone they are probably long gone," Maybe that was why she was warning me about the forest, is it because of crazy people like her?
" Where do you live?" There was a long pause..." Speak up then, where do you live?"
In a very timid voice I replied," In lakeside house, near the lake and the edge of the forest," She shook her head then carried on dragging me and muttered," Come on, your coming to my house, you are soaked," I gave her a little smile and she smiled a bit back. " So, have you just moved here?" I replied back," yeah, which school do you got to?" We continued to walk, my shoes made odd squishy noises at each step but I tried my best to ignore it. " I got to Iona high school, Its an orite place but there are some people which you might want to avoid, I think you will fit in perfectly," I knew what she was thinking but I'm not a mega bitch.

In a large clearing there were wooden houses, mossy browns and slightly aged by the elements, some had little porches, toys left out and other normal things. I never expected for some people to live in the wood but it does seem nice, close to a beach and a lake, in a little peaceful comunity. We walked up onto a white porch with a small wicker chair left out, the girl opened the door and waited for me to coe in then shut it behind me. The smell of a rich musty wood lingered in the air and faint traces of lavender and other flowers lingered. Running up the mahonganny stairs she stopped and motioned for me to follow so I did, there were several rooms, the walls were painted a faint cream colour and pictures hung. She pushed a black door open and the smell of spices overwhelmed my senses.

James P.O.V
We have been home for over an hour now, we weren't sure where Elena was but did it really matter, she was proberly walked home and is in her room now ignoring us like she usually does. if she is still out there and it becomes dark, we will have a look because she wouldn't stay out that late. Football was on the TV, it was actually nice to not have to watch her crap shows, a large banging noise disturbed us so we pressed pause and went to the door. When did Elena start to knock at her own house, she doesn't even knock at other peoples house no matter her own. Pulling the door open, we saw a boy. He had dark brown hair which was wet and dripping in his face, big brown eyes and was wearing just a T-shirt with some trainers and blue jeans. Sam interupted me before I could say something, " Not by any chance, have you seen my sister she was in the woods a few hours ago and hasn't come back," The oy looked curious as soon as sam said that then he muttered with a slight sigh," What does she look like?"

Ashs P.O.V

The morons were arguing with each other, not really caring that their sister has gone missing, clearing my throat they looked at me then one of them said," She has pale blonde hair but I mean
