thanks for the comments!! here's th efirst chapter, tell me what you think!
Chapter One
I was laying on my old bed in my new room, in a new city, in a new state. I had blue blanket over me, all the way over my head. My blanket was the only thing I bothered to unpack. I was curled in a ball, with my eyes closed and my damp eyes finally gave way and tears fell down my face. Why did my dad have to get a new job? In L.A? And why did I have to move with my family? I could’ve survived on my own. I lay there pondering when someone knocked on my door.
“Go Away!” I yelled. I heard my door open and someone come in. I whipped the blanket off and sat up and saw my older brother, Josh. “What do you want, Josh?” I snapped.
“Just wondering if you wanted to come with me to explore the city a bit,” Josh said.
“No, I don’t want to,” I said lying back down and pulling my blanket back over my head. Before I knew it the blanket was gone. I sat up and looked at Josh, holding the blanket.
“Give it back, Josh!” I yelled standing up.
“Come on you can’t just stay here and mope around,” Josh said.
“Yes I can,” I replied trying to take my blanket away from him, with no luck. His grip was too tight.
“Well, I won’t let you,” Josh said.
“Since when do you care?” I asked.
“Meg, I always cared,” Josh said. I looked up at him with eyebrows raised.
“No you haven’t!” I yelled.
“Yes I have, I just didn’t show it,” Josh said calmly.
“Well, why start showing it now?” I asked.
Josh shrugged. “I don’t know… cause you seem so crushed by all of this” he said.
“Well, I am,” I said.
“It’ll be okay,” Josh said, handing me the blanket. “oh, I’m going to meet the neighbors, you wanna come with me for that?”
“No,” I said.
“I heard they have four boys, but I guess if you don’t want to come you don’t have to,” Josh said, starting to leave my room.
“Four? Boys?” I asked throwing the blanket onto my bed. Josh turned and smiled at me.
“I knew that’d get you to come,” Josh said as I ran up to him.
“Let’s go, let’s go!” I said impatiently. We walked down the stairs and headed to the front door.
“Where are you two going?” my mom asked us.
“To meet the neighbors and maybe explore the city some,” Josh said.
“Oh, okay… the neighbors seem nice, isn’t Chelsie going with you?” our mom asked of my older sister and Josh’s twin.
”She’ll be locked up in her room for a few days and I don’t really feel like going to get her,” Josh said. There was a lot of sibling rivalry, especially between Josh and Chelsie.
“Oh, okay, well be back for supper at 6, okay?” my mom said.
“Okay, bye mom,” Josh said.
“See ya,” I said as Josh and I walked out the front door.
