Chapter Two

(The Beginning)

"Tuck?" I take each small step with caution while making my way up the creaky stairs in the pitch black darkness.

Ever step ever movement made a loud sound.

"Tuck this isn't funny turn on the lights. Your mom will be home soon"

I say while reaching the top of the stairs.

"Boo!" Tuck says when popping out of a dark room.

"When are you going to learn to just grow up" I yell will taking his arm and pushing him in his room.

Tuck is ten years old.

I started babysitting him when he was eight.

Our family's got this idea if I babysat him once every three months they can go on these couple retreats and have some fun away from their kids.

I have 2 younger sisters; twins. I love them to death, they may be annoying but I still love them.

I'm sixteen, green eyes, brown hair, short and skinny.

My name is Martnia, but my friends and family call me Marty.

I close his door while Tuck sticks his tongue at me and goes to sleep.

*Beep beep* I run down stairs to open the door. "

"Hey Marty" Tucks parents say in unison while stepping inside suspecting every little detail in the house.

"How was he hopefully he was a perfect angel as always" Mr. Logan says while handing me sixty dollars. "

"He was great, no trouble... an angel" I explain while chocking on my words.

Every time I babysit Tuck I lie about him being good because I know they won't pay me as much as they do now.

"Great. Thanks Marty" he says while winking at me sending shivers down my spine and he begins to run upstairs to check on Tuck.

I have always had a little crush on Mr. Logan.

He's 37, a professional soccer player and has a perfect smile.

His wife on the other hand is 27, beautiful, a physio therapist and is a blonde with blue eyes... Lucky.

"Thanks again Marty" she hugs me and opens the door.

"Bye!" I say with a huge smile on my face.

It's very dark outside to walk but I live right across the street. As I walk through the door I see my two little sisters playing guitar hero.

I kiss their heads and say goodnight.

When I get to the top of the stairs I see my mom folding clothes and my dad watching sports while sitting on the bed.

"Hey I'm back, I'm tired so I'm going to bed... night"

I explain while they look up and smile to show they heard me.

I change my clothes quickly then gracefully fall in my bed.

I pull out from under my pillow my writing journal and write about my

*Beep Beep* "I'm up... I'm up! "I scream while shutting off my alarm clock.

"7:35... okay I have two hours to get ready and go to school".

I run to the bathroom right around the corner from my room.

As I go in I wash my face and brush my teeth.

"Floss... floss?" I say while trying to find the floss.

7:40 past and I was already changed into my cheerleading uniform (which I have to wear for school every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

I run downstairs to see my sisters putting their stuff in their bag. "Good morning Sista's" I shout while heading to the fridge.

"Bye... love you" they say in unison while leaving for the door.

Their 11 and already in grade 8.

They are very smart and skipped two grades.

My eyes scroll the inside of the fridge looking for something to eat.

I take out a smoothie my dad made for me before he left for work.

I put on my coat and grab my back pack.

While closing the door I spot Mitchell at the end of my driveway.

"Hey Trouble" he says while taking my smoothie from my hand and drinking it.

"You know one day I'm not going to have a smoothie and then what...?" I explain while he stops drinking the smoothie with a creamy moustache.

"Then we will walk to Booster Juice and get one ourselves" Mitchell says while bumping me with his hips.

Mitchell is my best friend I have known him since grade 3.

He has pitch black hair, blue eyes, and is very tall.

He's kind of an emo... well he listens to rock, metal, and scream-o.

He scares me sometimes because he would wear dark makeup and every Halloween is a scary death person.

"So trouble I got these tickets to raining death's concert... do you think Angelia will say yes to go with me" he says while playing with his hair so he doesn't seem nervous.

I stare at him and smile "Angelia will definitely say yes because I put in a good word about you and she said she thinks you're cute, and hopes you ask her out".

He smiles and does a little gothic-jump.

I laugh and walk to the front of my schools door.

We walk to my locker when these guys walk pass me and lift up my skirt.

I turn and give them a dirty look and Mitchell gives them a scary look.

"You guys stop you aren't going to get some of this" Mitchell says while wrapping his arm around my neck.

The guys laugh, then wink at me and walk away.
