"Presley get up." Carter yelled from downstairs. I pulled my pillow over my head. I groaned as Travis jumped right onto me. "Travis Pate!" I yelled. "Presley Treasure!" He yelled back. I whacked my twin with my pillow. "Get up or your going to make us late for church." He said. Pulling the covers off me. I growled before getting up out of bed.
I went downstairs following my brother. The two youngest brothers were already at the bar eating. Lane is the oldest, Carter the second oldest, Travis third, I'm the fourth, Kason is the fifth, and Leo is the sixth and baby of the family. Kason and Leo are also twins like Travis and I. Our parents were glad they weren't triplets. I finished my plate of eggs and bacon before going back up to my room to get ready.
School starts this week. I got dressed and slipped into my boots before applying some lip sense. I put on a layer of lip gloss before grabbing my bible and waitress outfit then going down the stairs. My three older brothers were waiting in the living room. "Least we're not late today." Carter said before leaving. We followed him out me stuck in the backseat with my twin.
Once at the church we went to our youth building. I was the first one there while Travis was talking to one of the guys. I sat down next to Levi. "Hey did y'all hear there was a new guy?" Tyson said coming up behind me. He's the cousin of Bryan and the son of Jeck. "No." Bryan said. He's Hyde's son.
"Yeah. They just moved to town. The guy has two younger brothers, and what looks like his mom and stepdad. The guy looks nothing like the woman or man." He said sitting down next to me as Travis came in. "Is he hear this morning?" I asked. "My dad went over to his dad to invite them. The guy is our age going into our grade." Bryan said.
Once Sunday school was over we went over to the sanctuary. "I'd be careful around the new guy." Travis told me. "You know the guys will have me right in the middle of the pew between you and Levi." I told him. "Then Carter and Lane beside me while Tyson and Bryan next to Levi." He said. "And where is Louis sitting?" I asked. "Next to Bryan." He said.
I ran to the bathroom before going with my twin to our pew. I sat between all of them. After we sang a song I immediately turned around to greet the people behind me. Right away I met the bright blue eyes of a guy. "Presley." I introduced myself. "Wright." He said shaking my hand. "It's nice to have you here this morning." I said.
He only smiled. I welcomed a man and woman before we started to sing once more. Then once the pastor started I zoned out of what the guys were doing on both sides of me except when I flicked my twin's knee to make him be quiet. He was speaking on being loved.
"We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him. He appointed them to be saved in keeping with his purpose."
- Romans 8:28
"But those who trust in the Lord
will receive new strength.
They will fly as high as eagles.
They will run and not get tired.
They will walk and not grow weak."
- Isaiah 40:31
"We know what love is because Jesus Christ gave his life for us. So we should give our lives for our brothers and sisters." - 1 John 3:16
"But God chose you to be his people. You are royal priests. You are a holy nation. You are a people who belong to God. All of this is so that you can sing his praises. He brought you out of darkness into his wonderful light." - 1 Peter 2:9 Once it was over I walked out with the guys tailing. Lane and Carter were going to lunch with their girlfriends. I grabbed my work outfit out of my brother's truck and jumped into Levi's. Every Sunday we would go to the diner for lunch. Since I started working there I had to work Sunday afternoon and evenings.
