Hey ya all! First chapter, not much to say about it, but please read and review.
Chapter 1 "It's still you!"
He came closer and closer, I couldn't do anything to stop him. I looked around, but there was no way out. The whole room was packed with people that were on his side…
"Do you, Troy Davenport, take Taylor Cadwell to be your wife?" My hands are bound and I can't go anywhere because my feet are nailed to the ground.
"Yes."
"And do you, Taylor Cadwell take Troy Davenport to be your housebound?"
I scream no, but the word yes comes out in stead.
"You may kiss your bride."
"NOOOOOOOOO!"
I wake up with a start. Thank god! It was only a dream. Puh, I hate those dreams! Ok, do you really wana know who… Who… Ok Taylor gather your self woman! Ok, Troy Davenport is? Well he's my ex. Yeah we use to date the last year at junior high, but I wasn't really in to him, so I dumped him. (In a very gentle way over the phone… Ok, I know it was wrong but I was so young and naïve! I'm two years older now and I've learned.)
"Nightmare?" asked my younger brother Cyrus.
"Yepp!"
"Thought so, you were screaming like a pig!"
"Why didn't you wake me up?" I asked angry.
"You would poke my eye out or something if I'd approach you!"
"How could you tell if you didn't try?"
"Your arms and legs were dancing around you like they wanted to protect you or something! And you're not worth the pain."
"You are such a nice brother." I said sarcastically. If anyone want to buy him than be my guest! I'll start the offer at 10 cent. Oh that was cruel. No one wants to buy him for that much! 5 cent and we have a deal! No one?
I got out of bed and to the bathroom. It was 6.30 and time to get up. (If it was up to me, I would still be sleeping!) Let me tell you the four things in the world I hate the most. When people torture animals, global warming, Hitler and my hair. I never seem to get it right! And I just hate my hair color, its light brown! Everyone has light brown hair! The color brown is nice but I would prefer DARK brown. Enough about that. I should really talk about my family so that you get to know it.
Let's start with the youngest, my one year younger brother Cyrus. I hate him, very much. And he has the excellent power called bragging. No that's not his power, well it is his power but not his special one. He can make things disappear. Nothing more to say about him.
Than, there's my sister Lily. She's 7 years older than me! She can make things grow. So she's already got one child Dane. (He was only in her stomach a month!) She's loving, so I don't hate her. If you were going to describe her in one word, than it would have been high tempered. Because she is, why do you think?
My mom and dad are not very special. My mom doesn't have any powers but my father is a nail gun.
Did that sound weird to you? Yeah me too. What I meant was that he's hands is like nail guns. He can make nails come out of his fingers if he really wanted it. My mom could be my best friend and my worst enemy, but mostly she was a friend.
And than we have me! Little brown-haired Taylor. Ok, so I'm not that little. I'm 1.70 and that's normal right? Anyway, I've told you about the four things I hate and my hair color so my power remains than?
Alright, I can shoot arrows out of my wrist. You know, like bow and arrow. Just without the bow. It's kinda cool, but I almost killed one once. Don't ask…
Jordan (my best friend) showed up an hour later and we walked to the bus stop together.
"So" I said as we were walking.
"So…" she repeated.
"Looking forwards to school?"
"No."
"Have you had a good summer?"
"It was ok I guess."
"Seen any cute guys?"
"What are you, my psychologist?" she said grumpy.
"You have a psychologist?" I asked just to torment her. I think some one is having their monthly mood swing! I didn't say that, she would kill me if I did.
"Have you seen Logan around?" and that was a theme that really interested me. Jordan and I have been in love with him since our last year at junior high. That's two years now! We should celebrate!
"Yeah, I've seen him a couple times at the library actually."
"What?" I said and made a grimace. This was so typical! I knew I should spend more time on the library… We meet Jamie and Xavier at the bus. They were arguing again about something stupid again. I gave Jordan an abandon look. They were so in to each other, but they didn't really know it… Yet. But there might be a little problem. We think Xavier's gay… Don't get me wrong, I like gay people. It's just that it would be so sad to find out that Jamie's future housebound had dumped her… For another man… Yeah…
"BLOODY HELL!" I yelled when I saw Jamie's hair. It used to be brown, but she had colored it blond. It's nothing wrong with the color blond of course it's just that… It really suited her in some strange way. (I'll let you know what it is soon.)
"I mean, wow!" I corrected my self. I looked at Jordan that had closed her eyes, like it was the most dreadful sight you could ever imagine.
"Suit's her personality don't you think?" said Xavier and laughed. The scary thing is that it did. It really did. You know what they say about blond people don't you? Yeah, they're known to be stupid. (Not Jordan. She's so smart that I have no idea why her big brain doesn't pop out of her eyes and ears, because it's big… Very big.)
"It does!" said Jordan. I admire her courage.
"I don't care what you think, because I think it looks good and that it really suits me." She said and raised her head high.
"Oh it suits you all right." I dared to say. Hey what was there to expect? She has planes to get a tattoo on her back in a shape of a playboy bunny. And she told me that she wanted to drop out of school because she hated it and join a TV show instead. Sounds gifted doesn't she?
"Fine. If you're not gona support me, than I'll live."
"We're not!" said Xavier and received a warning look from me. She walked away and sat by some other girl that we didn't know. What the hey! More space for my big but!
"You are not very intelligent." Said Jordan and got a seat next to Xavier.
"What do you say about coloring her hair green while she's sleeping? It would be an improvement!" Xavier suggested.
"Improvement indeed. That's not a bad idea!" said Jordan.
"It wasn't wasn't it? Yeah! Who's the… Not intelligent person now?"
"It's still you!" I said and turned to the window.
