The Black Sheep

Chapter 1 ~ Forks

Drew Pov
I'm currently blaring Goodbye Agony through my ear phones, not gonna be shocked if I go deaf. We're almost to our new house and so far I'm liking the scenery. The woods, I love the woods so many places to explore. Plus my favorite animal, the wolf, lives in the woods I'm hoping I'll see one while we live here.(a/n my favorite animal actually is a wolf which is funny since she falls in love with a wolf) The trees moving in a blur so it's a bunch of green and brown. I've always preferred the woods over the beach. Don't get me wrong I love a good visit to the beach but, there's just something about the woods. Probably the fact that the ocean is scary as shit. I can't wait to go and explore the woods! We had woods over by our old house and I explored the shit out of that place. It was so much fun and from what I've seen, outside my window, these woods look better to explore than the ones by my old house.

I look away from the window and see what everyone else is doing. I'm a people watcher. Peyton is watching a movie on my moms phone, probably Frozen she's obsessed with it, and Lizzie is on her phone probably deciding on which instagram filter to use on her photo. Dad is paying attention to the road like he should be and mom is sleeping. Maybe I should take a nap? Well it could be pointless. I pull an ear bud out so I can hear.

"How much longer?" I ask looking at my dad.

"About half an hour." He says still focused on the road. The road must be slippery since it's raining and by raining I mean raining like a lot. I put my ear phone back in. Let's see nap? Or no nap? Eh I'll just listen to music. I continue to look out my window and let my mind wander.

~0~0~0~0~

Finally we're here. It took us about 13 hours to get here but, we did stop at motel so today we were driving for roughly 6 hours. I finally get to get out of the car yes! As much as I love sitting around and doing nothing it was getting cramped in there. I turn off my music and take out my ear buds stuffing both items in my pockets. I open my door and hop out taking a big stretch, I then fix my clothes . Skinny jeans were not the best choice. Lizzie was definitely smarter, as usual. I should let you know that a few of dad's buddies and my parents came down here earlier to furnish the house. They took a plane though, lucky. My mom wanted to take the scenic route. I don't think I've actually told you my parents name they're Amy and Tom, just to let you know.

I look at the house after my little stretching session it's pretty nice. It's probably the newest on the street. I give it a nod of approval.

"What was that?" My mom says with a laugh.

"What was what?" I ask looking at her.

"That nod." She says pulling out the keys.

"Oh it was my nod of approval." I say following her up the steps.

"Of course you would like it here it's super gloomy." Lizzie says probably not meaning to be hurtful but it kinda hurt. Peyton agrees with her with a 'mhm'. What the heck are they trying to say, I'm gloomy? I shouldn't jump to conclusions, Lizzie's just a bit grumpy since we moved away from her friends in sunny California. Yeah we're from Cali. I feel ridiculous saying Cali instead of California. We're from Northern California though, so it's not always sunny. We used to live two hours away from the beach and one and a halve from the mountains.

I hear the door click and mom opens the door. Wow this is nicer than I was expecting. We all just stand there looking around, my mom smiling in content.

"Go on see if you can find your rooms. We'll get your stuff." She says walking back to the car. Peyton sprints off to find her room, Lizzie walks normally, and I decide to first look around the first floor. Yes! They brought the piano out here. I feel a smile on my face. I wonder? I look around and spot a door under the stairs. Basement? I open it up and sure enough there are stairs that lead down. I walk down them at a leisurely pace and when I make it to the bottom there it is my bedroom.
