*sighs*
School why'd it have to be school. School starts in a week and- oh crap I have to go school shopping.
I run down my stairs and look for my mom, I see her talking on the phone and I roll my eyes and run back up the carpeted stairs. She's always on her phone doing work.
I pick up my phone and call my grandma. No answer just great. Guess I'm going later. I take my phone and go over to my window seat and hop on it.
*buzzz buzzz* I glance at my phone and ignore it, nothing important...
*buzzz buzzz* omg what could it be is it buzzes in 5 seconds after one another, so I actually look at my phone omg it says 'thunderstorms found in your area along with lots of lighting'
*CRASH*
"No dur there's lighting" I smile. Yass I love thunderstorms, just the pitter patter of the rain and the lightning and just everything about it I love.
I look outside and I can see the dark gray clouds rolling in.
"Oh I really hope Jake makes it back in time..." I whisper to myself.
Just as I finish saying that I hear the door open.
"Jake!" I rush downstairs and as my brother is walking through the door he drops his stuff because he knows what's coming.
I run over to him and give him a great big hug. I've missed him SO much!
"Jake! Your home!"
"Yeah I'm home what are you gonna do about it?" He hugs back.
"What am I gonna do? Oh that's a good question how about this!" I pull out a water gun from behind my back and spray him.
"I'm going to get you for that!" he says as he starts chasing me.
"Noooo" I yell as I try and get away but with me being 5'8 and him 6'3 he kinda has an advantage.
He catches up to me and picks me up and throws me on the couch.
"Caught ya"
I'm trying to catch my breath but I'm laughing to hard. In the process of doing so I manage to fall off the couch and on the ground.
*THUD*
"Ow" I say then just sit up like nothing happened.
Jake sits down on the floor next to me and says "So we have so much to catch up on like..." he starts but I don't even let him finish.
I roll my eyes "no it's over I'm no longer with Josh, he was a bitch and I hate him he frickin cheated on me that...I honestly don't know what to call him anymore." We both stand up and Jake walks over to his luggage.
"Good because I never liked him, he was ummm yeah I never liked him. I can go beat him up for you if you'd like?" Jake starts to bring his stuff up to his room while I trail behind carrying a suitcase.
"Okay enough bout me for now. How's collage?" I sit on his bed and watch him start unpack.
"It's ahmm good I guess" he starts
"Okay I know your lying so tell me the truth"
"Okay don't be mad at me but... I found a girlfriend" he says hesitant. I'm legit speechless and don't get me wrong but it's a good speechless!
"Oh my gosh! Jake I'm so happy for you!"
"phew I thought you'd be mad because idk."
"No Jake that's amazing why would I be mad at you for that?! I couldn't I'm so happy for you."
He smiled at my response and goes "You got school supplies yet?"
"Ahh umm nope not yet can you take me?"
"Sure sis it's for school so... why not."
I hop off of his bed and I race downstairs and get my tennis shoes on and run out to his car.
After a while of me waiting inside his car I finally see him get out and we start the drive to target.
It's only 10 minutes away from my house if we walk but with the storm coming... I don't wanna take the chance of getting struck by lighting I mean I DID just get my brother back from collage so...
—•—•—
After we get back shopping both groceries and school supplies I'm wiped out man, just wiped out.
I start putting the stuff away when Jake came behind me and started helping me.
"So... mom how's she been?" He started while putting whipped cream in the fridge.
"Pretty good just been working lately... a lot..." I respond slower than I intended to.
Me and Jake are the closest siblings we could ever have and I mean it. I mean I know other siblings aren't like us but we just have a special connection. Like if something happened to me he would fly in and save the day.
When I was little I used to think he was a super hero... whenever he needed help with anything I'd come and help him even if he did go away for collage.
"Well hopefully we can be a family when she's done working..." he says closing the fridge and starts the water in the pot to make spaghetti.
"I hope but she's been really busy with it and all the projects and travel and just life." my moms a layer and some days she just can't get off the phone. If we even start to bother her she'll get mad at us.
I sit on top of the counter talking to my brother as he starts the spaghetti. After a couple minutes of silence I sigh and sit down at the table.
Jake comes over with 2 plates of spaghetti and I start eating. It's so quiet I don't think it's ever been this quiet before in the house.
"Want me to go get mom?" I asked
He thought a second before answering "nah she probably won't come out with what you told me, and anyway we're almost done eating."
I nodded "scratch that I finished eating" I smiled and put my plate in the dishwasher.
"I'm going to go up to my room I mean school is in a week... get ready and all that jazz" I started up the stairs before turning around and hugging Jake.
"I'm so glad your back from collage, I missed you so much bro" I playfully punched him.
He laughed and said good early night as he finished eating.
I ran up to my room and got my new backpack out and started putting all my stuff that I needed into it. Normally I would do this the night before BUT this time I decided to do it tonight instead.
After I did all that, I decided to pick out my outfit because why not.
I looked at my clock and it read 10:07. Oof I'm tired, I was about to plug in my phone until I got a text message from my best friend Lindsey. I haven't talked to her in a week. My eyes widened when I read the text message from her saying...
