Dear, Secreté

Chapter 1.

"Isabella!" I hear my brother Jalil shout from downstairs.

"What?" I shout back. 

"Get up and get dressed, we have to go enroll you, Vontae, and Kingston in school" He says.

I groan, "Do I have to?"

"Get up Izzie!" He grits through his teeth.

"Fine" I huff. 

I get up and get dressed in a grey crop top, dark green pants, and a black sweater over the crop top. 

I take my hair out of the messy ponytail it was in and brush it and just leave it natural. 

I then sigh, and walk down stairs and put on my black and white Adidas. 

"Goodmorning dad" I smile as I see my dad on the couch and kiss his cheek.

"Goodmorning Princess" He smiles back.

"Are you guys ready?" Jalil asks me and Vontae. We both nod.

"Lets go" He says

I grab mine and Vontaes phone and two waters, and walk out.

I hand Vontae his phone, and a water.

"Thank you Iz" He says. I nod and kiss his cheek. 

Okay now, let me give you guys a little insight.

I'm Isabella Stephens but everybody calls me Izzie. I have four brothers, two older, one younger and a twin. There's Jalil, who's 21. Then Micah, who's 19. Then Javontae, who's 17 and my twin. Lastly, there's Kingston, who's 16. 

Jalil's birthday is December 25th, Micah's birthday is July 16th, Mine and Vontae's Birthday is December 3rd, and Kingston's birthday is January 4th.

We just moved back to LA from Chicago. We were always kind of back and forth from here and Chicago growing up since that's where we're all from technically. We moved to LA after mom had Kingston which was when Jalil was 5. 

Anyways, we lived in Chicago because our dad got a job offer and took it. We're moving back because our mom died in a car crash. She left everything to Dad and Jalil so they decided that we would keep the house in Chicago for whenever we wanna go back and visit but we would live in LA. 

We finally got to the school after a car ride that felt like forever. We walked through the halls and the stares and whispers began. We left at the beginning of freshmen year and now we are juniors (11th graders). 

We were about to walk into the office before I made eye contact with the last person I wanted to see. Jaylen Parker. Jaylen and I have quite the history but i'll save that for later. The eye contact between us kept on until Vontae snapped me out of it. 

"Izzie!" He whispers. 

I looked at him for a second before I spoke, "what?" 

"Don't even go there" He said and I shook my head. 

Suddenly I was "accidentally" pushed over. I looked up and seen Jaylen smirking.

"Dude, what the fuck" Vontae snaps.

"oops my bad" Jaylen says sarcastically.

"Jaylen Parker, my office now!" The principal scolds.

"Again" He groaned, and stomped into the principals office.

"Izzie, are you okay?" Jalil asked. 

I nodded, and wiped the tears that threatened to fall out of my eyes.
