Living With the Mirrors

Twins

The spring ball had finally arrived. It was later today. Hazel had told everyone, that almost every boy in the school had asked her. But she had convinced herself that Matt was going with her. She was in for a real surprise. Things fell into place for me and Matt. We walked together again.
'WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH HER?' She spat out that last word.
'Oh, you mean my girlfriend?'
'But your not together. We're together.' She was turning bright red.
'Well if we are together than Hazel I think we should be seeing other people. I hope we can still be friends.' Said Matt with a huge grin. I couldn't hold it in anymore. I burst out laughing. Matt did the same. We were laughing so hard. Hazel stormed off, she was bright red.
Score 205444444444444444444444456848343534309999999999 to me and 1 to Hazel. I think you know where she got that point from.
'Now, Robyn what are you wearing to the ball?'
'I'm not telling you!' I said.
'Just the colour then so we can match.'
'No. But nothing can go wrong with a classic Black Tux. So wear that OK?'
'Fine. See you tonight.' He gave me a quick kiss goodbye on the cheek and went to class. We didn't have any classes together today and I would bnot allow him to see me getting ready so we'd only see each other again tonight. The whole day I kept daydreaming. Remembering our first kiss. It was amazing. Then I remembered... From now till 5 I was baby sitting, the twins. Jordan and Steven. They were both 14. The two little boys with no manners. They were rude, annoying and overall idiots. Usually as I arrive they call me 'Unsmart' . Me being me I find it ironic.

I'm busy relaxing doing my homework. Music pumping into my ears, I can hear the patterns. I just started when...

Knock knock

'Hi Roby..... Your not Robyn. Where's Robyn?'
'It's me Jenny, I just got contacts and my hairs down. Sorry if I look a bit too different for you to reconise.'
'It's ok, take care. Bye boys see you soon.'
'Bye Mom.'
'Bye Jenny, see you at 5.' I said with a sigh. I turned and noticed the boys staring at me. 'What? Do I have something in my face?'
They were still staring at me.
'You look so different. Your pretty?'
'Yes thank you. Now please be quiet I'm doing my homework. And I need to finish it before 5 because at 5:30 I need to be ready for the Spring Ball.'
'I heard of that, it's for the older grades. Do you have a date?' Asked Jordon.
'Yes, I'm going with my boyfriend.'
'Are you planning on dumping him anytime soon?' Asked Steven.
'No. Why?'
'Just wondering. Now what happened to those glasses of yours?'
'I got contacts.'
'Your hair, it's down.'
'I know.'
'Your clothes are so cool. You look like a tomboy.'
'I've always been a tomboy.'
'How old are you again?'
'I'm 16. And your both 14. So how's Highschool?'
'Great, Robyn should you like me to help you with homework?' Asked Jordon with a grin.
'I doubt you'd understand it. Plus I have tons of extension homework because I may look different but I have the same mind. '
'I'll help you!' Said Steven
'Ok, sure. If you don't understand, I'll teach you.'
'Sure thanks. A here I come.' Said Jordon.
'Oh, just wondering... You don't mind if my friend Ally comes over soon. We need to get ready for the Ball.'
'Cool. Can we invite that other guy? He's always here. Keean, I think. 'Asked the twins
'Sure, let's go get him.'
'You mean drive right?'
'No, we're gonna walk. Done worry he's only 3 blocks.'
'Aaaaaaaaaaggghhhhh.' They groaned at the same time.

We went out the door and headed for his house.

The boys were walking slowly behind but weren't groaning anymore.
'Here we are. ' I said with a cheeky smile.
'That's not 3 blocks. That's next door. You tricked us!'
'I did.'
Knock knock
'Hello Sarah, is Keean home?' She looked like she was trying to hide frustration for him.
'Yes he's in his room.' She said with a forced smile.
We walked cautiously to Keeans room.
'Hey.' He said without a backward glance. 'I'm glad your here. I have something to tell you. It's about you condition. 'He motioned towards the twins. I turned to the,
'If we speak this private converstion in your presence to you promise not to speak a word.' They nodded.
'Go ahead Keean, you can tell me.' He took a deep breath.
'I have a condition too. It's...' He was interrupted by his mom calling his name.
'KEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNN, HEEEELLLLPPPP!' We ran down stairs to find his mom at gun point. The black hoodie guy from Ally's house.
'Don't move of I'll shoot!'
'Ok, ok what do you want?' Said Keean frantically.
'I'm want the girl.'
'Me?' I said.
'No, Ally!'
'Ok, just let my mom go!' Said Keean with frantic eyes.
'I want her by midnight!'
'They have a ball tonight so can we give her to you tomorrow?' Asked Steven
'Yeah.' Asked Jordon.
'Shhhh!' I whispered to them. What were they thinking.
'Ok, fine. But tomorrow by midnight!' With that he left with Keeans mom in head lock.
'MOM!' Keean let off a shriek of pure and utter sadness. Suddenly I was knocked off my feet as he rose into the air. Energy swirling aroundhim in a sphere. My ears were wringing. Jordon and Steven were knocked out cold. Must be my powers helping keep me awake. I got to my feet slowly. They were still sleeping. I let out a silent aggghhh. I put my hands on his shoulder. He turned to me, 'We'll get her back. It's ok.' He sunk into the ground. Collapsing in my arms.
'That's my power. I think I need a nap, you look like an angel.' He said sleeply. I couldn't help but let out a giggle. He was so cute when he was tired. SHOOT ITS 5 already. Time flys so fast. The boys had just awoken.
'Who are you?' They lost their memory.
'Robyn, yes I look different let's go your moms here.'
'I don't even remebe how we got here.'
'You fell asleep. Now get going.' I ushered them out the door.
Now to get ready for the ball.
