In His Arms

Chapter 1: Oh Joy

Chapter 1: Oh Joy

Im walking in the dark. I don't know where I am. I feel like I'm floating in space. I feel a presence on my waist and around my neck it's so warm and comforting but I didn't know it was I. I turn around to se-

*Beep*

*Beep*

"Man I never get to finish my dreams!"

I hate my alarm its obnoxious and loud. I cover my ears with my pillow and groan loud not wanting to go to school. Soon enough I throw my pillow to the alarm clock so it would unplug it and stop piercing in my ears. I hate waking up early in the morning I'm not a morning person. I have bed head, and bad breath. My foot is asleep making me not want to move.

"Rise and shine Sleeping Beauty!" DJ says as he turns on my lights. The bright light makes my eyes blind as a bat. Everything looks like shapes.

"What time is it?" I groaned as I flip my body making my face smack on the mattress

"Time for you to get up." DJ says as he pulls my sheets off me .DJ is my older brother he's 23. DJ was named after my grandfather David Wright . Which makes him David Wright Jr.

"Can't I go to school tomorrow." I groan as I play tug of the war with DJ with my blankets.

"You have a test today remember. You have to go to school I'm not going to let my little sis ditched school because she doesn't want to do the dumb test that she's been studying all week for."

"But I hate biology." I groan again

"Ugr Sam I swear if you don't get up off this bed I will tickle you to death!"

I jumped off my bed like it was trampoline. He never jokes about tickles.

"Okay okay I'm up!"

I try to stomp to the bathroom but I just keep looking like I was taking my first baby steps. My foot was still asleep and I keep trampling over myself.

"Don't hurt yourself Bambi."

"Not in the mood DJ."I chuckle a bit. He always has a way to make me laugh. I close the door behind me.

I look at myself in the mirror. Wow I need a haircut. I brush my teeth, try to tame my mane, put a little bit of makeup , get dressed, and sprayed my favorite perfume Warm Vanilla Sugar .

I put on a Forever 21 bright pink t-shirt with light blue washed skinny jeans and nude colored Sperrys. My hair is brown wavy and down to waist. My eyes are also brown to which I kinda hate because i have poopy eyes. (So if you're wondering what I look like now you know)

As I head to the kitchen I smell bacon lingering through the air. One of my weaknesses. I see my 6'3 bonehead of a brother humming an unfamiliar song. Scrambling eggs making my favorite, bacon and egg bagel. He has the same brown hair as me but more straight. His eyes are hazel which I'm a little bit jealous of because he got the good eyes in the family.

We haven't been a complete family since God knows how long. My parents died when we were young in a car accident. Me and DJ sent to an orphanage because we really didn't have much family to go to.

When my brother turned 18 he got a job and bought an apartment. He took me with him and we've been living together ever since.

"What are you doing in the bathroom that take you so long." his eyes never move from the pan.

"Girls things that you wouldn't understand. All you do is put on some clothes and some defunk~( deodorant ) and you're done."

"Hey it takes a lot of preparation to get this handsome." he grins

"Oh yeah, then how come I haven't seen you with a girl in 2 years."

"Because I've been busy with work. it's grown up problems you wouldn't understand."

"Haha very funny." I stick my tongue out to him. Pretty immature even for myself.

He turns around to look at me but while putting a bagel in the toaster

"Guess what." he says quite happily

"What?"

"I think I'm getting a promotion today at the department."

I start to jump for joy "That's awesome I'm so proud of you." I hug him on the side and kiss him on the forehead

"Is breakfast ready yet?"

He hands me a brown bag with my name on it.

"Bon Appetit!" he says as he kisses the tips of his fingers like some kind of Master chef.

He looks at me in the corner of his eyes "So I her do the new guy coming to school today"

"I haven't heard anything lately"

"Well you better watch out for him he's already been in my office"

"Oh I'm guessing he's a bad boy"

"Yeah I don't want you to be friends with him"

"Oh calm down its not like you're going to be seeing me with him I don't even know the guy what looks like"

"I'm just looking out for you"

"Your just being an overprotective brother. Well I'm gonna head out."

"Good luck at your test."

"Good luck on your job!"

I open the door and I see my red beautiful Jeep in front of me. I love my car. So new so shiny. I unlock the door and start the engine.

"Vromm Vromm." Just listen to that purr. I start to head to Jimmy's house. And here start another ordinary born day in Morgale, Georgia.

Oh joy
