Always Be Together

12

When I go find an outfit, I pick black leggings, black crop top with long sleeves with a cut out on both shoulders and it's a turtle neck. I tie a red and black flannel around my waist. I pull on black and white vans. I do two French braids. I grab my bag and go downstairs. Oscar is eating toast. "You look tired" said Oscar. "Oh, I was tossing and turning all night" I said. He  nods and I make myself cereal. I have orange juice and then Peter walks inside. "Hey you two" said Peter. He walks over to me and places his hands on my waist. "Hi, Lyssa" said Peter. "Hi, Pete" I said. We lean in and kiss.

Dad walks in. "Hey you three, get in the car." said dad. We nod and go to his car. We climb in and the ride is relatively boring and once we arrive, we go inside. I watch Ned  walk over to us. "We might have a problem" said Ned. I look at him.  "What problem?" I ask. "Brad and MJ are dating. I don't know how, I don't know why" said Ned. "Dating?" I ask. "Brad apparently visited her to say sorry and that he made mistakes because he didn't know how to deal with his feelings" said Ned. "So,  their dating" said Peter. Ned nods. "yes" said Ned. "Is he up to something or is he sincere" I said. "I don't know, I guess time will tell" said Peter. I nod. "So... you look close" said Ned. "We're boyfriend and girlfriend" said Peter. We spot MJ and Brad standing by her locker. "We should go say hi" said Peter. "Yes, we should" I said.  We walk over. "Hey, MJ" we said. "Hey" said MJ. Brad looks at us. "Hey, look let's start afresh" said Brad. We nod. "OK" we said, walking away saying we have to go to our lockers.

"I don't trust him" said Peter. "Same. Let's be cautious around him" I said. Peter nods and we grab our books. We go to class and sit down. I look at Brad and MJ. They look happy but is he playing her? I hope he isn't. It would suck if he was. 

During lunch, MJ sits with Brad and I sigh. "Surely he wouldn't use her, right?" I said, looking into Peter's eyes. "I don't know but I hope his not. MJ deserves better" said Peter. I nod. I look up and spot a person who looks like me, just like me. He walks over. "Hey, I'm Carson Olsen, I'm new here" said Carson. I nod. "OK" I said. "I saw you and we look alike" said Carson. "Yeah, I noticed as you walked over" I said. "Must be the face" said Carson. I nod and he sits down. 

Throughout the day I keep wondering about why me and Carson look alike. Peter thinks we're twins but surely not. I sigh and dad picks us up. We get home and I bring Peter to my room to study. After Peter leaves, I go tell mum and dad about Carson. "He looks like you?" asked mum. "Yeah, same eyes" I said. "Hmmm, I will look into it, Lyssa" said mum. I nod and we have dinner. 

Oscar talks about this girl, Gracelyn Foden. I think he likes her. Hmmm, I have to meet this Gracelyn. I go watch a movie with them till 10 before I head to bed. I change into my pyjama's and slide under the covers. I close my eyes and fall into a sleep thinking of MJ and if she's being played along with Carson.

Who is this Carson Olsen? Are we about to find out something? Beware the twists coming soon!

Hope you enjoyed this chapter :)
