You have to care

Chapter One

*ring ring*
it was Charlie calling, again.
'Come on dest, we can try'
'Do you really think my parents are going I let me stay with you in America while they move to England?!?' I questioned down the phone
'Yeah come on they love me' Charlie replied in his deep husky voice.
Charlie was 19 he wasn't the best looking but I loved him. He had mousey brown hair an hazel eyes, he had a few spots here and there but other than that he was perfect! I loved him to the moon and back, I think I love him more than my own parents! We'd been dating for 8 months and 9 days exactly. I've counted so many times. But now my stupid parents are moving me and my family to England. cold grey England, where the sun doesn't shine!
'Babe come on' I hear Charlie say from the other side of the phone line
'Okay okay I'll ask' I reply smiling to myself
'Love you'
'Love you too'
'Bye'
'Bye'
10 seconds of silence passed
'Have you gone yet?' I whisper down the phone
'No' Charlie replies 'I'd never go'
'Forever?' I ask
'Forever'
*Beeeeepp*
Forever is mine and Charlie's always, it means we'll always be together. No matter what happens

I walk down the stairs and into the kitchen. My mum she was sitting at the table making one of her lists. She seems to love making lists when I ask her why she makes her lists she replies with the same answer
'Wouldn't everyone find it easier if they had a list' in her strong American accent.

When she saw me walk in she smiled with her freshly glossed lips and her pure white teeth. her bright blue eyes glistened with a layer of eyeliner and mascara surrounding them. My mum was the definition of perfection. All the boys at my school fancied her it was a bit embarrassing really. When she'd drop me off all the boys would ask me about her and if she was single. But like she'd go for the grotty 17 year old boys at St Colmans High School

'Hi mum' I said
'Hello darling' she replied. She looked up and flicked her beautiful blond hair out of her face.
'Mum can I ask you something?'
'Anything darling' she rolled her r's for effect.
'Instead of coming to England... Could I maybe... I mean I wanted to know....' I found myself rambling on.
'Spit it out girl' she said in a stern voice
'I want I stay her in America and not come to England' I say very quickly
'And where would you live?' My mother had a stern look on her face
'I'd live with Charlie in his apartment and I could stay at my school, keep my friends and everything would be normal'

'You want to live with Charlie. Right I have about one-hundred reasons why not!' she emphasised the 'one-hundred'
'Why mum! Come on name ten!' I shot at her
'Very well' my mum shots back
'Number one- you've just turned 17 and he's almost 20' I role my eyes and reply 'age is just a number'
And mum replies 'and prisons just a room, number two: you can't even look after a fish let alone yourself, number three...'
Blah blah blah blah blah is all I can hear, why does she have to be so picky
'And finally number 10- because I say so' she finishes off and stares me dead in the eyes
'For gods sake mother why the hell do you have to be so picky! Mindy's mum would of let her stay' I scream at her
My mums lips went thin, she hates being called mother, hates it!
I walk out of the room knowing I'd lost this argument and stomp up the stairs.

At the top of the stairs we're standing my two siblings, twins.
You know how people say twins are a nightmare well you won't want to meet mine, Andrea-eve and Justin are turning five in a month and they are the most annoying children ever! Everyone loves them so much, what's so great about kids anyway, Charlie doesn't want kids, and I don't think I do either. They're just one big mess.
'Disney?' Andrea-eve asks, she says this because she can't say my name. 'What!' I turn round at her with fury. He long blond hair trailing down her back and her bright blue eyes, just like mums, staring at me. 'Nothing' she quickly replies and hurries off into her and Justin's room. Justin turns to me and shouts, 'YOU BIG MEANIE YOURE SO MEAN!' He screams his brown eyes now filling up with tears, I scruff his blond hair full of gel and say 'whatever' then walk off into my room and slam the door behind me.
