"Ok everyone, settle down!", said Mrs Young, our teacher for the 5 day trip. The quiet murmur subsided. Everyone's eyes turned to her. "Ok, I know they're late but, we have new additions. Everyone, meet Kiera, Kacy, Kaley, Karla, Nathan and Nico Jones. They're sextuplets. Or twins. Do you want to say anything about yourself?" All of them were, well, the only word you could use was beautiful. Even the boys. I could hear the students in my class talking about them already. The first one to speak was a tall girl who had short black hair, pale skin and a gothic earring. She was wearing black skinny jeans, gothic boots and a black and red jumper. "I'm Kiera," she said, "I'm the oldest out of all my siblings. Erm, I love cutting people's hair. I cut my hair and my sisters. If you want a cool haircut, don't be afraid to ask". I heard Jonny call her the "Hot goth girl". Her voice was like a light bell tinkle. The next to speak were the two girls who were wearing the same clothes. "I'm Karla. This is Kaley," said the girl on the left side. The girl on the right side lifted her hand in greeting. They were wearing pink and black tutu dress, lacy tights and the same gothic boots and chocolate brown scene hair. "We love--" "Exploding things.", said the taller of the two boys. He had a pretty deep voice for a fifteen-year-old. He had dark blond curly hair and was wearing a royal blue cardigan, a blue Ralph Lauren shirt, black jeans and boots. The Jones family laughed. Their laughs weren't like a usual crowd laugh. Each of their laughs comlimented the other. It sounded harmonious. Like an orchestra. Probably an inside joke. They all had perfect sets of teeth. White too. "I'm Nathan. I'm the second oldest. I like composing music. I play piano and violin.", said the boy who just spoke. The other boy spoke. "Hi, I'm Nico." he had a deep voice, but it had a slightly boyish tone to it. He was wearing what Nathan was but his colour was soft orange. He had dimples, like me. I heard everyone discussing our dimples. It was kind of like a competition. I think I was winning. "I enjoy sports, such as polo, rugby, swimming and volleyball.", he said with a smile. The last one to talk, caught my eye the most. She was so beautiful. She had curly, shoulder-length, black hair. She was wearing something similar to her brothers. She was wearing a white cardigan, a white blouse and a black puffy skirt. She also wore awesome knee high Converse sneakers. She pushed up her glasses from her nose. "Erm, hi. I'm Kacy. I'm the youngest out of all my siblings. Erm, I enjoy reading, writing, swimming and composing music. Like Nathan I also play the piano and violin.", she said with a smile. Her voice was so soft and shy. I didn't realise I was staring at her until Jonny elbowed me. "Mate, cut it out, you're drooling", he said quietly. "What?", I said, putting my hand under my mouth. I wasn't drooling. "Ok, you weren't, but you looked like you were about to. Calm down." said Jonny. "Sorry", I said softly, embarassed. Luckily, no one heard. I looked back at Kacy. She looked in my direction. The colour rushed to my face. She smiled. So beautiful. I smiled back and looked away before I turned tomato red. My stomach did a somersault.
After half an hour, we finally got on the coach. I was probably going to sit with one of the Jones siblings since both our surnames began with J. "Lucas," said Mrs Young, "you don't mind sitting next to Kacy, our new girl, do you?". My face burned. "Sure, no problem" was all I could manage to say. Kacy sat next to me and smiled. She was obviously wearing quite a lot of perfume. She smelt really nice. "Hi I'm-" "Kacy. Yeah, I know", I said, cutting her off, "I'm--" "Lucas. Yeah, I know", she said cutting me off. She winked at me and smiled. I smiled back. "I'm not being nosy or anything," I said, "but, why are you guys starting so late?" "Oh," she said, "my siblings and I used to live with my mum in America, where we used to live. Where she comes from. My dad, who lived in England, where he comes from, wanted us to come to England after things got a bit difficult in America. When Nathan and Nico started getting into fights with other va-- erm, boys. It was pretty bad and they got beaten up everyday. So, my mum decided to leave. She didn't want to leave America but she cared about Nico and Nathan too much. She's happy here. As long as she's with her family, she's happy". She laughed at something Karla and Kaley said. Her laugh was like the sound of wind chimes. We got to talking throughout the journey. She asked me about my family and I showed her a picture of Georgie that I had on my phone. She went crazy about her. "Promise me you'll introduce me to her someday", Kacy said. "Promise. I think you'll like her. Everyone already does.", I said. "You know, it's so cool that I found a friend before my siblings. Usually, they always find friends before I do", said Kacy. Wow, did she just call me her friend? My stomach did another somersault.
