Lydia

"Happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday to you!" And I blow out my candles "YAY!" Everybody shouts

Everyone congratulates me patting me on the head or rubbing my back. "Thanks guys" I say about to tear up

"Oh relax" Emanuel says "Enjoy the party!" I yell and everyone goes back to converse

"You think Justin will show up" I bite my lip as I ask my brother. Justin is his friend he is 17. One year older then me as of today. I always had a crush on him

"Yeah he'll be here, why?" He questions "oh no reason" I wave him off and walk away. It was a little stuffy in the living room so I stepped outside. If mom saw me I'm pretty sure she wouldn't let me go to the community high school next week.

But I know she is preoccupied with my father upstairs just the thought makes me gag. "Happy birthday" I immediately look up remembering the voice

"Thanks Justin" I feel my cheeks turn red as I look down I feel him approach me he lifts up my chin. "You look great" he smiles those brown eyes just make my knees feel weird. Luckily I'm sitting down.

"I brought you something" he digs in his pocket. It looks decent sized but poorly wrapped. Just the thought that he tried makes me smile. "Yeah sorry I'm not very good" he points to the wrapping "It's fine thank you"

I go to open it but he stops me. "Open it before you go to bed" I nod

"Let's go inside I'm hungry for your dads cooking" we both chuckle dad is a great cook I can't say for my mom though

We walk inside casually talking squeezing past my aunts and uncles "Alright have whatever you like" I tell "Do you want me to take out a plate for you or you already ate?"

"If it isn't a bother" he shakes his head "Of course not birthday girl" he winks and goes to take out the food I blush like crazy my face probably red like a Shirley temple. He makes me feel all giddy on the inside.

"Here you go" he hands me the plate I take it with shaking hands "Thanks" And we eat just talking about school and how it's going to be for me just giving me basic pointers about high school. He'll be a senior there.

Eventually people start leaving wishing me a happy birthday and a good luck at school.

"You'll be fine, try to find someone for yourself eh?" My grandma tells me I laugh "I'll try" my grandpa just pulls her along "She's a nutcracker don't bother with her, also stay away from the weird kids" he says sternly "There making children now" his face turns into a scowl "Those blood-" my dad stops him "That's enough pa" my grandpa shakes his head "Sorry" he kisses me on the forehead and he walks away "What was that about?" I question my father and Justin. Justin looks angry and dad just shakes me off "Teen pregnancy" I nod in realization yes that's a big problem

"Hey I have to go but I'll see you later ok? Tell Emanuel I said hey" he goes to lean down I never kissed a boy before but I puckered my lips

But all he does is kiss my cheek. And he walks away. "Why are your lips like that did you eat peanut butter" my mom ask touching my forehead with the back of her hand "No mommy" I groan marching up the steps she shrugs "Have a good sleep baby"

"Thanks mommy" I yell everyone is now gone. Mommy and dad are probably cleaning up

I change my clothes and I'm about to fall asleep until I remember Justin's present picking it up from my nightstand I open the wrapper. Inside is a box opening the box I see a necklace but not an ordinary one it's a cross. It's gold to. Attached to the cross is a little bottle with what water?

Behind the box attached to it is a note.

Looking at it now you probably think it's the most lamest thing you've ever gotten but trust me this will help you in the long run. The cross and holy water will come in effect one day. Happy birthday Lydia

The smile replaces the frown and I attach it to my neck. Looking in the mirror I let my hair down twirling around the bottle and cross as they clink together

Jumping into bed. I lay down and immediately fall into a deep slumber.

------------------------------------------------------------------

"Lydia you'll be late on your first day, don't make me regret it!" Momma yells I jump out of bed I was awake the whole time I was to excited to sleep

I turn my room upside down looking for the perfect out fit but I just settled on my new jeans and a gray top bringing along my blazer and gloves since it's chilly

Running down the stairs I take my metro card from my mother. "Remember what I told you" she says I just nod "I'm ready mom"

Leaving through the door I can't help but feel grown I'm 16 walking to school. On my own! Vibrating is felt in my back pocket. I got it for my birthday it's my first phone

Groaning I answer "Yes mom" "Are you alright did you reach the bus?" She ask "Mommy I'm not five, I'm almost there I love you" "I love you to sweety" she goes to say more but I hang up I know it's rude of me but I'll get it when I come home

I reach the bus stop. When I look around I notice that I'm in front of Louis house. Please make this bus come. I chant.

"Well hello mon amour" (My love) I turn around in fright as I see what looks like Harry. He is in his garage it's really dark in there I can barely see him "Oh hey Harry" I say cautiously akward lay waving in his direction

"Why don't you come in I just made tea" he points to the cups on the table next to him. Why did he take out two cups?

"No thanks I'm waiting for the bus" I nod my head towards the bus pole. But he shakes his head "Nonsense it's cold out there come in here where it's warm" his voice gentle but it holds authority

"I think I see one coming" I lie peeking over the sidewalk

"Lydia why don't you come inside now" his voice is strong and has edge for some strange reason I oblige I tell my mind no but my body walks toward him

When I get inside. I hear a buzzing sound, whirling around I see the garage door closing. What did I get myself into?
