Samantha

I wake up to the sound of loud music blaring from downstairs.

I groan, hopping up out of bed and racing downstairs. I go down to the basement, where Jakob, Chris, and Ethan are singing some type of song that I don't even know the name of.

"Could you maybe turn it down a bit, I am trying to sleep" I say.

"No, you live here you put up with the consequences of living in a noisy household" Jakob snickers.

"Whatever" I roll my eyes and head back upstairs to the room that Tess and I are currently using.

"They're being noisy.." Tessa trails off.

"Don't worry about them" I say stroking her hair. "They could at least do it at a time that isn't 9:30 in the morning" She groans covering her ears with her pillows.

"They are morning people I guess" I chuckle slightly still stroking her hair.

"Its not like they have to do it, I mean yeah they like music obviously but they could do it around lunch time" Tessa says.

"I know Tess, but just stick with it. I will talk to Leo this afternoon when he gets back from work" I say, she doesn't reply. Instead she just sighs.

"I wish things were the way they used to be.." Tessa trails off. 

"Me too Tess. But we can't go back.", I whisper.

"What if Leo finds out about our past? What if he finds out we ran away from home. What then Samantha?" She says sternly.

"He won't-" "What makes you say that? What if Jakob, Ethan, or Chris find out? We're stuffed then aren't we?" She cuts me off.

"They won't find out Tess! Cool your jets.", I say and she sighs laying her head back on her pillow.

"You're right.. I am overthinking too much" She whispers.

"How about we go downstairs and get some breakfast, yeah?" I ask. "That would be nice" She smiles slightly and we head downstairs and get a bowl out of the cupboard.

"What are you having?" I ask.

"I am going to have frootloops, what about you?" She asks. "I am just gonna have corn flakes. I ain't real big on sugary stuff." I say pulling out corn flakes.

"Okie" She says turning back to finish preparing her cereal.

Once I am finished I sit down at the table and start eating. "What are we going to do today?" Tess asks shoving a spoon full of froot loops into her mouth.

"I don't know, go for a walk. Get to know sydney a bit. Go to a coffee shop?" I say questionably. 

"I am probably gonna go to the mall.. I am in desperate need of new shoes" She says, which is true considering her current shoes are on the verge of tearing.

"I will probably come with then" I say.

"Come on Sam, I am thirteen, I can do things alone now." She argues. "That may be true, but no way am I letting my thirteen year old sister wonder the streets alone without a guard" I say arguing back.

She rolls her eyes and puts her empty bowl in the sink.

"I am getting dressed" She says wondering up the stairs to our room. "Alrighty" I say taking another spoon full of my corn flakes.

after 5 minutes Tessa comes down all ready. "Hey Tess, Since we have nothing else to do today lets just go to the mall get your shoes than head to the park" I say.
