Twilight
Age: 12
It has been a while since that dream and I couldn't stop thinking about it. Who is James? Why am I in danger? How was I in danger? Maybe I could forget about it, I mean it is my birthday after all. I heard my mom's footprints come into the house, she must have just came back from getting last minutes gifts. Something threw me off though, I heard more than my mom's footprints. With curiosity, I ran down stairs still in my pj's, I froze at the scene.
"Hunny! I'm so glad to see you!" My mom said with a smile. "Who is that?" I whispered while pointing. This boy gave me a confuse look, "Um, you must be Twilight, right?" I looked at mom, "Hun it's not polite to point put that hand down." And so I did,
"I'm James, your new adopted brother!" I gasped and stumble back, "Oh." I paused, "Well um hi" I stuttered, "I'm twilight your new sister as you know" I chuckled nervously, he gave me a warm smile. "How about you guys go up to twilights room and talk" No this is not happening, I wanted a brother but not a crazy one! Is he the James the voice talked about!? I nodded, "Lets go"
We walked up the stairs into my turn into my room. "I love your room!" He laughed, "No if I'm being honest it sucks, why is just a big me-" Before he finished I slapped him, hard. "You have no right to say that I didn't have time to clean up" he rubbed the sore spot on his face, he laughed. "Anger issues much" I rolled my eyes. "Listen I wanted a nice brother okay? So how about we talk on good terms. Alright? "
He sat down on my bed crossing his arms in the process. "How about we make a deal, we can be nice and live the perfect life but, you have to not be in my way for anything. Understand!?" I nodded what could he possibly do? "How old are you?" I asked, "10 years old!" Bro did I just slapped a ten year old what is wrong with me. "I'm 12"
I'll spare the boring details of today but it mostly went smoothly I got the brother I finally wanted, I ate cake, open presents, fell down the stairs or more like pushed, but it's whatever.
"Mom where is he going to sleep tonight?" She stop looking at my cut from falling, "Well, since you don't have enough room in your bedroom he will sleep in guest room." Good I don't want to be around him.
Night time came around and James got ready and settle into the guest room. While I was changing I heard someone knock.
"Hey sis can I come in and say good night?" It was James, "Sure one minute" I finished changing and open the door. "Goodnight little dud-" I looked up and saw a tall shadowy figure right behind James. "Uh James who is that!?" When I look down he was gone and so was the figure, “What in the world?” I said out loud.
I closed the door not trying to think what that was. I heard a knock on the window, so like any other girl in the world I went to investigate. When I went up to the window, everything went black.
"Goodnight, Twilight"
