As we keep the silence in the car and the wary feeling to grief of me moving to another town and a new house to fix up and sell.

According to dad that it was going to be a very big house and it might take a while to fix but he is using the opportunity for all of us gone at school so he can work on more of the dangerous stuff.
They were six kids out of all us. Well... if you count me as a member. I was adopted to the Crain's when I was ten. Steven, the oldest out of all of the biological family, was only one. I'm seventeen, and in high school but I never stay in one place, non of us do. Mom and dads job is to come into houses and fix them and once there fixed they sell it for a lot of money.
Let me formally introduce myself.
I'm Olivia Crain, My siblings, Steven is thirteen, Shirley she is 11, Theodora is 9, and Nell and Luke are the youngest, they are twins and never left each other side. They are both 4.

We pull up in the driveway and see this HUGE and old house. Wow. I've never in my life seen something so big! I'll have to get used to it though.
Supposedly this app lace is haunted but mom and dad are ganna fix it and get it worth a lot of money.
"Wow!" We all explain.
We all start running in different rooms and examining it while mom tries to keep us all together.
"This is insane!" Steve remarks
"Luke! Stay close. No-no ugh never mind" She says giving up.
"This place is so big!" Nell exclaimed as we all agreed nodding are heads.
"Where's are rooms?!" Theo asked desperately.
"Upstairs" Dad says and he already knew we would run all over each other trying to find are rooms.
"I want the biggest one!" Shouted Shirley
"No! I'm the oldest so I get it!" Added Steve.
"No! I'm the oldest remember?!" I say dramatically.
"We already assigned your rooms!" Dad shouted at us so we can hear all the way up the stairs.
I can hear mom and dad talking and then hear dad coming up the stairs.
Once we find are rooms and get all our stuff out of the car. I take my skateboard out of my closet and go downstairs.
"Mom! Can I go see the town and ride my skateboard?" I yelled not knowing where she is so she can here me.
Mom pops out of a random hallway with a sweet smile on her face.
"Sure honey, just make sure you come back by-" I interrupted her.
"6:15" I finish and she smiled
"And stay on the hill, and when the porch light flashes two times-" I interrupted her once again.
"It's time to come home." I say with a grin on my face. Mom seems impressed and happy and she kisses my forehead.
"I'm so grateful that we have you." She says in my hair while she hugs me.
"I'm glad I'm here too, mom" I say sweetly. I head out the door and look one last time at my mom then leaving and heading to town.
Might as well see what my high school will look like, I think.
I'm heading to the school by speeding with the cars. Some people in the cars got mad that I would grab there car and use it as a ride but I really didn't care. I see a school zone sign and know that I'm close. I let go of the car and head towards the school. I go on the side walk and turn to the school and notice that the kids were coming out. I checked my watch, 2:15. The bell must have rung.
I boarded towards the kids and most of the people thinking I'm badass and some girls thinking I'm just another bitch that moved in.
A boy comes in front of me and trips me off my skateboard and I hit the concrete and roll as if I was in a movie. I come to a stop and sit up and notice everyone staring and laughing. I was greeted by some worn-out boots and I look up and see a very handsome boy, around my age, he wore worn-out jeans and a plain white shirt and a leather jacket. And I think there is something in the back but I couldn't see. His hair was slick back with a lot of gel and a strand of hair was hanging out of the slick hair. We lock eyes and stare we eventually snap out of it and he offers his hand I take it feel somethings wet coming down my cheek. I touch my head and see I'm bleeding.
"I'm sorry about those squares, there just mean like that." He said, his voice was so angelic. Then I noticed what he had said.
"Squares?" I ask very curious. He laughs nervously, constantly looking at my forehead that was still bleeding.
I think you should worry about your head more than what a square is." He says looking deep into my eyes. As I do the same. I snap out of it and grab my skateboard and start riding away.
"See you soon new girl?" He asked.
I nodded "Tomorrow."
He gives me a questioning look.
"I start school tomorrow" I say with a smirk.
"Well I hope to see you tomorrow mystery girl." He finishes the conversation. And the same boy that tripped me was trying to do it again, but I lift up on my skateboard and my back wheels land on his foot. And he screams and falls and I ride faster so he doesn't chase after me.
I was still riding back home and I hear a car horn and I turn around not falling and see that mystery boy. He smiled as we make eye contact. He speeds up and he drives at the same rate so we could talk.
"You wanna ride?" He said with a smirk, obviously trying to talk to me. I smirk and grab onto the car and give him directions and flirting with each other. We pull up the hill and see the the porch lights turn on twice.
There was a certain look of fear to the mystery boy and his friends.
"You live in the Hill House Manor?" One of his friends say.
"Ya why?" I ask
"Everyone just said that it's been haunted sense it's been standing."
"Oh, okay. Well, thank you for the ride and helping me up. And pray for me that I don't die because of my head." I say not even asking.
They think that it was a joke but it wasn't. I walk around the gate and open the door and hear everyone in the kitchen. I slowly walk in there and they all great me and I try to hide my face. Mon comes up to me and moves my hair and every one just bombarded me with question, even dad.
"I feel off my skateboard and hit my head on a curb." I say easily lying. Dad takes me to his room and bathroom and fix me up with Steve helping of course and they put a big bandage on it and we go back downstairs and eat dinner. I tell them that I got to see the school that I'm going tomorrow. They through it was cool so I know what it looks like.
I go to sleep with mom and dad kissing me good night even though I tell them I'm to old but they still do it. They add another "i love you" and "watch your head, you don't want to make it worse."

I wake up in the middle of the night to hear crying. I follow the sounds and it's coming from Nell's and Luke's room. I see Steve and we walk to the room together in are pajamas and Theo opens the door.
"Go back to sleep Theo, we got it." I say
"You want me to get mom and dad?" Theo questions tiredly.
"No it's fine." Steve answers.
We walk in together and see Nell sitting up crying. We both look to the right and see Luke sitting up too and just starting at us with his big glasses.
"Why are you awake Luke?" Asked Steve.
"Cause Nellies awake." He comments.
I got up to Nell's bed and hug her.
"What happened Nellie?"
"Bad dream." Her little tiny body fits in mine in the tight hug.
"I get bad dreams too." Steve says
"So do I"
Then dad was at the doorway and asked what happened.
"The Bent-Beck Lady."
"Awh her again." He says trying to calm her down.
"Where was she?" Dad ask. She points to the front of her bed. Dad says said that we can go back to sleep and I do but I notice that Steve was standing there wanting to know what he was going to say. I lay down and instantly go back to sleep, only to hear the annoying sound of my alarm.
