Under The Sycamore Tree (A Liam Dunbar Fan Fic)

Scratched

Anais' POV

The familiar and annoying sound of my alarm clock beeping through my ears woke me up from my dream reminding me that it's that time of the day where I have to get up and get ready for school. I groaned, the only thing I like about school is free time, lunch, allowance and away from chores. Other than that it's utterly annoying and deadly. I reached for my bedside table and stopped my alarm clock from making any more noise. I sat up and yawned, a sign that I am still sleepy. I swung my feet at the side of my bed and stood up before I could even pull my covers up again and go back to sleep. I grabbed my towel and headed for the shower.

The hardest part of being a girl? Picking out an outfit! Sure I'm not one of those popular girls who needs to have an amazing outfit everyday for the whole school year. In short, Lydia. But I guess it's in every girl's nature to look good or at least decent at school. You don't want to be the topic of the mean girls version of your school, do ya? Today I just went for the simple one, a white tee that has the logo of my all time fave band, 'All Time Low', skinny jeans, and my brown boots. With a perfect accessory, and by that I mean, a fandom trinket... my angelic rune necklace, The 1975 baller and Elena Gilbert's daylight ring. I'm all done. Yes, If I could be any supernatural being being a vampire would be my 4th choice. Well 1st, a witch, then a shadowhunter, then a demigod then vampire. And yes, as a fangirl I own a lot of fandom merchandise.

I blow dry my hair and curled it up. If I don't, my hair will look like Hagrid's for the rest of the day. Wouldn't want that, right? Although, yeah I'm a big fan but seriously, when will glamour spell ever be real?

I grabbed my bag from my chair in front of my desk where I usually do school stuff. Before opening my door, I also grabbed my denim jacket at the back of my door. You know, in case it gets chilly.

I ran down the stairs and the sweet smell of eggs, bacon, toast and cinnamon ran through my nostrils. Dad. I'm glad dad's back. I missed him a lot. And finally someone in this house can finally cook us food. Not that I'm complaining about pizza every night.

I entered the kitchen and went straight to my father who is in front of the stove frying some bacon.

"Good morning princess" he greeted and kissed me on the forehead

"Good morning daddy" I greeted back and sat in front of Ansel who is already munching some toast and gulping as much orange juice at once. He started chewing and chewing then swallowed the munched up food.

"Finally! Took you forever to come down here! Oh, wait you do that every morning" he said then shoved some eggs and bacon in his mouth. I gave him a disgusted look.

"Careful" I warned then grabbed some toast and placed it on my plate. "It's like you haven't eaten in days"

He swallowed his food before talking again, well at least he still have some manners. "I haven't eaten a good breakfast for weeks!" he exclaimed and took another bite of his toast. Dad placed the remaining bacon on the table then sat down.

"Why? I thought you two can handle being alone in the house for a few weeks?" he asked

"Oh we did well. We are still alive, and the house is still in one piece right?" I said and he just looked at me. "For the first week." I added "Then the next not so much, Ansel got tired of doing his chores"

"So that explains the big pile of dishes on the sink last night?" he said then turned to Ansel, "And your pile dirty clothes on the laundry basket?" Ansel just gave him a smile with eggs still in his mouth.

"Ugh, disgusting. Just disgusting" I muttered then shoved some eggs on my mouth and chewed them properly like a normal person would. Unlike Ansel who chewed it like an animal. Dad just laughed it off and the three of us ate our breakfast like a normal family does. But that's the problem, our family is far from normal. They're not hunters, but we are. Normal families aren't involve in anything supernatura, normal families doesn't have a mother who got bitten by an Alpha werewolf and have to kill herself before she shifts during a full moon, normal families doesn't have a sister that died because of an evil Japanese spirit. But I like our family, no matter how difficult and dangerous our lives are. Normal is boring.
