The stary night was perfect,the wind blew my hair just a bit,but it felt good in the August heat.I was laying on the soft,green grass with the love of my life.I leaned in closer to him,smelling his intoxicating scent.I smelt the sweet scent of strawberrys and the sea."The stars are beautiful tonight,much better here than in the city."I said to him."Not as beautiful as you,"He said softly into my ear.I giggled a bit,and rested my head on his bare chest.
"You always know what to say,"I said looking up at him.In the light of the night,he had midnight black hair,and his eyes were still green.And he pulled me in closer,like he'd never want to let me go,looking said as he now had to say good-bye,and said."I can't wait for our first hello.."He kissed my forehead."Until we meet,"I aggreed.

I bolted up and hit my head against the bar."Shiz,"I muttered,rubbing the front of my head.I looked around,searching for the sorce of me waking up.Then I found it,it was a very fuzzy Hello Kitty alarm clock.

I hit the snooze button and laid back down.I stared up and the green bar,and looking at the mattress between the cracks.I grunted a bit,and sat up.I rubbed my eyes and placed my feet firmly on the floor.I stood up and looked on the top bunk.Little James and Lindsay were sound asleep.Lucky them,being homeschooled and all,and I had to go to Emerson Peabody for the Troubled Students...Hehe,Peabody.Just a funny name.

I grabbed the clothes I picked out last night and stood inthe middle of the room.In the darkness around me,I could feel it watching.I shook my head.Nothing was there.I scratched the back of my head and tip-toed to the bathroom across the hall.I moved my hand up and down the side of the wall looking for the light switch.

Once I found it and heard it 'click'I looked in to see if the light was on.It was on,so I walked in and shut and locked the door.I turned to the mirrior and viewed my reflection.My greenish grey eyes looked glassy,like I was about to cry,but very clear,like you can see right through me.My mop of black hair was a mess on top of my head.It was all tangled so I grabbed my purple brush and started to work out the knots.Then I noticed my paleish skin.Most people called me porcelain because I'm pale and have no pimples.And then it just goes oh so great with my black hair and glassy eyes,making me look more like a doll.
I sighed,my bed head just wanted to stay for my first day of school.Ugh,school.

That word sent chills up my spine.It wasn't that I hated the people there or the teachers or just the academics themselves,but it was the fact I could never focus on anything,and when I did all the words moved around on the page.ADHD and dyslexia really hated me,and in 1st grade I was put into the 'speacial' class,but I was way to smart to stay in,so I went back to normaility.

I sighed again and leaned on the counter.I really didn't want to go today,or any day.I didn't want to do anything.All I could think about was last summer....I pushed that thought out of my mind,my mother always told me that it was in my nature to think negative,so she made me wear bright colors when I was sad,and today would be a day she would say"Come on now,Andy,wear some orange for me today!"and she would clap and tell me I was pretty,how much I looked like her sister and my father.

I cringed again.Another soft spot.It's not that I hated my father,its just that I never knew him...Not at all.And that bothered me.When me and my mother were in great need of him she would always say that he was watching,but she never said from above or below.I picked at my nail,then started the hot water.It waqs best to get it now considering that theres only two bathrroms and Pat would wake up soon.

And I don't want to get into it with Pat again...The girl drove my nerves crazy.From the way she straightens her perfectly shimmery blonde hair to the way boys adore her sky blue eyes and fake tan.
Also I might add that accidentaly hatting someone would be on the list of things I shouldnt do.I placed my clothes for today on the toilet seat and put my hand under the water to test it.It was warm enough.

"Ugh,Andromeda!Can't you hurry up?"Pat said pounding on the bathroom door."Damn,just a sec Pat!"I yelled back.I was in the middle of getting dressed and puting on some eyeliner and blush."Whatever,I have to go to school too...And its gonna be even worse since you're there."She muttered the last part quietly.

"Oh Pat,I love you too!"I said in a high sarcastic voice."Just hurry the hell up!"I heard her pound on the door again then her running down the hall to Aunt Lois's bedroom.I quickly unlocked the door and shut it again,then ran back into my bedroom and shut the door.

"Uh..."Jimmy said rubbing his eyes.He was sitting up on the bunkbed,his cowlick standing straight up and he looked so cute."I'm sorry Jimmy,didn't mean to wake ya'"He shook his head and put his hands out.I reached up and got him from off the bed and put him on the floor.I rubbed his head and he hugged my leg."Me want food Mel!"I screamed up at me.I picked him up and walked out into the kitchen.

I placed him down in his Spongebob highchair and locked the thing into place.I walked to the fridge and looked for his breakfast bars."Ah,"I pulled out his chocolate granola bars and unwrapped it.Here you go Jimmy,"He looked pleased when I handed it to him,even though I could tell he was still sleeply.I smiled down at him,he was the only nonannoying one in this house,and hes two.

I closed the fridge and sighed,sitting down in the wooden chair in the living room,waiting for Pat to get ready for school."Ugh,"She was really effing slow!I got out my blue iPod and plugged it into my ears.Falling for you by Colbie Calliat came on.I hummed slightly,then looked around.Half of the living room was lit by a small lamp,and the other half in complete darkness.I stared into the darkness for what seemed to be forever,watching and waiting to see what woud come out....Again.

"Andromeda,come on!"Pat said.I jumped in my chair and took out my earbuds.She gave me a sour look and then turned to where I was looking."You are so effing weird!Whats with you and the dark?"I shook my head."Nothing,just thinking,are you finally ready?"

"Oh no thanks to you,you used most of the hot water!Then I had to hurry to straighten my hair and do my nails!"I rolled my eyes at her."You do your nails everyday!"This time she rolled her eyes."Yea,whatever,now come on or we're gonna be late!"
~~~~~*~
This school looked absolutely beautiful!It was March and spring had just begun so the flowers were beautiful!It had a very weird vibe,but that didnt really matter,I loved flowers."come on,I dont want you to get lost,"Pat said shoving me in the direction of the school"Dont push,"I said harshly.
She rolled her eyes."Whatever,I don't want to be late,I'm meeting up with some friends,"She laughed,"not like you would know anything about friends."I ran in front of her."And what the hell is that suppost to mean Pat?"
She shrugged."My mother told me about how you scared your friends away.Seen any monsters lately Andromeda?"I really wanted to punch right then,right there.But I couldn't,this was the only school in the state of New York."I'll deal with you later,"I said to her.She put her hands up and said"Ooh,I'm so scared!"She snickered,"See ya' later Andy."And she walked off.
Did I mention that I hated her?Yea,I think I did.Oh well,I pulled my bag up to prevent it from falling down.I put one earbud in and Misery by Marron 5 came on.I smiled just a bit,this was my mothers favorite song.But then my smile faded,I had to go to school.I kept my earbud in and walked into Emerson Peabody High School.The hallways were a solid white,the kind you put in hospitals.I pulled my bag up and picked at my nail polish-solid black-and looked around for the office.
I sighed,my search was usless,apparently this school could function with out an office!I did a 360,checking every corner for this 'office' and accidently bumped into someone.

"Holy craz,I'm so sorry!"I said,helping the person up.Oh man,I bumped into a cripple!He smiled,"Na,it's fine,"He put his hand out,"Names Grover."I stuck my hand out too,"Name's Andromeda,but call me Andy."

He smiled and let go."Whoa,like in Greek mythology?"I nodded."Thats my name,"He was like the second one to actually ask that."So your parents are Greek mythology fans?"He asked.I lifted an eyebrow."I-I don't know if my dad was but my mother was,she kinda sorta..."I didn't finish that sencence.If I said anything else,I could lose the possiblitiy of him becoming a friend."Kinda sorta what?"He asked.

I sighed.Oh well,here it goes."My mom actually believed in that stuff,"I huffed out.Before he said anything I butted in."Look,its kinda obivous that I'm new,so do you know where the office is?"He lifed an eyebrow but said."Yea,follow me."

This Grover kid was flipping funny!He hit all of my funny bones,and found some more."So Andy,who do you live with?"I stopped.I wanted to yell that it was none of his business,but I told him the truth."I live with my aunt and cousins...My mother...Died,last summer."He opened his mouth then shut it.Most people did that,not knowing what to say and all."I'm sorry,"Was all he could say."It's ok,"I said quietly.

We continued walking(Or him..Limping?..Hm,)to where the office was.We stopped in front of a big room in the center of a beautiful garden."Wow,look at those roses,so in bloom."I said outloud."You like nature?"I nodded."I lived in Georgia until I moved up here this summer,so I was out in the open fields..."I trailed off.He nodded slightly."So,there's the office,I have to make it to first period,the teachers a pain."I nodded."Nice meeting you,"I said.
