I was in front of a room not really thinking about it. I opened the door, I squeaked loudly as I opened it. The room was dark, no not just dark pitch black. I couldn't see anything at all, I reached for the light switch I felt for it, until I found it.
"Yes" I say to myself I turned on the light. I found myself in a dusty room. It looked old like the rest of this old house. The room was a regular sized room with plain white walls and a white carpet floor. There was nothing in it but, a little box on the shelf in the closet. The shelf reached up to the ceiling. I tried jumping to get it but it was too high.
"Crap! I guess I'll get it eventually." I say
Ok so my name is Claire and I am just moved here to Colorado. I am fifteen my older sister is eighteen, her name is Rachel. We live with our dad but, he is always gone because of his work. He was a truck driver so he was almost always gone and, on the road. He would be gone for a month or two and, be home for a few days. Then he would be gone again. I should be sad but I guess I'm used to it now. That leaves my older sister to take care of me. My mom died when I was little but, it's ok. Other than the fact I had to leave my friends and school. I'm ok my best friend Melisa is who I miss the most she was like me when it came to popularity. I wasn't a popular girl but I wasn't bullied I guess I was in the middle of it like Melisa.
"Claire come on and help us unpack." I hear my dad yell up the stairs
"Ok I'm coming! " I yell back walking out of the room and going down the stairs still getting used to the new stairs. When I got down there I got right to work and started to pick up boxes. Putting them in the rooms we had chosen. They all looked the same to me though. I thought all well I was in the middle of taking out a music box that was my mom's. It was very pretty and was very old it had a little statue of two little girls in it. One the girls had blond hair that was the dirty blond like mine and green eyes also like mine. The other one had the regular, bright kind and blue eyes like Rachel. They look like her I can see why .My mom used to say that they reminded her of us
"So" my dad said snapping me out of my thoughts
"What?" I said surprised
"I said so what are we doing tonight?" He said
We kind of made a tradition that the day before he left we would all go and do something. Most of the time it was going out to eat unless, there was a fair in town or something like that.
"Hmm I thought umm..... Let's go out to eat "I said happily
"That sounds great "he said as he put something out into a cabinet in the kitchen.
"Where are we going?" he asked
"Umm that fancy French one" I said
We all called it that because no one could pronounce the real name.
Just them I heard my sister coming down the stairs me and my sister both had an upstairs bedroom.
"So I heard where going to that fancy French restaurant that sounds good. "she said in her usual cheerful voice
"Yup!" my dad said happily
"Hey can you two come here." he said seriously too my sister and me. We came over to him and the next thing I know we were we were all in a hugged
"I love my dolls!" he said in ha-I-got-you voice I started to giggle, he could always make us laugh.
He let us go and looked at his watch. "Alright" he said finally
"You girls go freshen up we are going to the fancy restaurant in thirty minutes." he said
We both nodded and said "ok."
I went upstairs and got a dress on it was a purple dress, it was short and it had a black ribbon in the middle. I put on my makeup and curled my medium length dirty blond hair. I then put on a pair of black high heels on and approved in the mirror. The purple dress made my green eyes stand out. I went out to the living room and sat on the couch. All the heavy stuff was already put in the house because my sister and I couldn't do it ourselves, or that is what my dad thought.
My sister came in the room wearing a blue dress with a white sash and a white shoes the blue dress made her blue eyes stand out and her blond hair stand out.
"You look pretty." I said smiling at her, she was always the pretty one she was well to me that is.
"Thanks honey so do you." she said in her cheerful voice
"Well I look fine I said not pretty." I said not convinced
"Don't be silly." she said I rolled my eyes and we all got in the car and left.
After we got home I went to my room and got changed into a tank top and pajama pants that had Mickey Mouse all over them. Then I went downstairs and gave my dad a hug and a kiss, knowing that I wouldn't be seeing him tomorrow. He would be gone by then. So I went upstairs and crawled in my bed I fell asleep. Thinking about all my friends that I had left behind.
"Wake up." I hear Rachel say
My eyes opened slowly "no." I said sleepily
Rolling over and pulling the pillow up over my head trying to go back to sleep "get up" said Rachel in a cheerful voice, although I knew she was starting to get aggravated.
"Its nine thirty get up." Rachel said
I groaned "ok." I said tiredly
"Good!" she said happy. She was always up early in the morning.
I got up got dressed in a pair of blue jeans and a bright green tank top. Then I put on my makeup first I put on eye shadow, then lined my eyes after putting blush and some pink lipstick on. I straightened my hair and looked in the mirror and approved my look. Then I went downstairs to get breakfast.
The door made a loud squeaking noise and it startled me. Then I walked down the stairs it yawning and stretching my arms. Once down stairs I told my sister good morning and we ate in silence. It was a good breakfast it was strawberries and a banana with some yogurt. I love fruit! I think to myself.
"So" Rachel said breaking the silence "I have to go to the store and get food and stuff. Do you want to come?" she asked
I shook my head "no" I said to her
"Ok than do you want anything?" she asked
"No" I said again
"Ok I'm leaving after I finish this banana is that ok?" she said
"Sure" I said
We finished our food and then she left. I thought maybe I could look around the house a little. I look around the place was very pretty in the morning the light made the walls look like they were sparkling. I went into a room the room upstairs again looking at the box. I was wondering what was inside of it I really wanted to get it down. I was jumping for it when, I heard a loud bang coming from downstairs I imminently froze in fear.
I stood there frozen I knew it wasn't my sister she had just left. She went to the mall she would be gone for a least two hours. Hide I thought but, I couldn't move. Then something hit me I had to go see what it was. That means I had to go down there. I got the courage and slowly crept down stairs trying not to make a noise. Which I was good at since I did it every Christmas Eve, when I was little to see all the gifts "Santa" had gotten us. At the bottom step I hear a boy shouting "crap, crap, crap" I looked over the corner. Saw him he looked about my age which didn't help much at all. With me being scared and all. I quickly went back behind the wall.
I dint get a good look at him but I was scared out of my mind. I started to wonder why he was in my house. I looked back at him. He had straight brown hair, he was wearing a green shirt and black jean pants. I didn't see the color of his eyes and didn't want to at that point I just needed to call the cops. My phone was upstairs I had to go up there to get it. I turn to go but as I took the first step the stairs made a very loud squeak. I had a bad feeling about that and turned around to see the guy. Standing right behind me staring right at me.
