I still couldn't quite shake off the eerie feeling my dream had given me. My brother was a psychopath. Or at least in the dream, I mean. I glanced over at my nightstand, where my clock was, it was only 4:30am. I groaned and laid back down. To early to get up, but to late to go back to sleep. I denied that thought and went back to sleep anyway, which was probably a bad idea. It seemed as if I'd only been asleep for a few minutes, but all the sudden my mom burst into my room.
"Amber, honey! Amber! Get up, get up! Your going to be late for school!" She yelped. Startled, I jumped out of bed, wide eyed and alert. "I thought you were going to get up at 5? What happened?" She asked worriedly. "I guess I must have fallen back asleep." I mumbled, turning to my dresser and picking out a pair of jeans. "Well hurry up, Jack is waiting for you." She replied, turning to walk out of the room. "Jack?! What do you mean Jack is waiting for me?!" I questioned alarmed. "He's going to take you to school, of course. It only makes sense that since you both now go to the same school that you go in the same car." She explained nonchalantly. "B-but Talia and me were going to go on the bus together. And Jack will do everything he can to embarrass me at school." I groaned desperately. "Well, I can't help that. We're trying to save money, your just going to have to carpool with your brother." My mom replied shortly, this time leaving the room.
Just great the first day of school, was a disaster. It pretty much was useless to even go to school now. I just wanted to hide behind my comforter and never come out.
I quickly got dressed, applied some makeup and ran to brush my teeth in the bathroom. That's when I saw it. The note on the mirror. That, and my worst bad hair day ever.
I reached up and pulled the note off the mirror to read it. It was written in Jack's handwriting. It read as follows:

Dear Sissy,
Thought you might need some cheering up on your first day of highschool! So here's a picture for your locker!! XD
The picture that followed his note was of Carter Dylan. Ughhhh. Why do older brothers have to be so mean sometimes. I shoved the picture and note in my pocket and grabbed my backpack, before running downstairs.
"See ya mom, heading out!!" I shouted, before going out the door. "Bye honey! Hope your 1st day of highschool goes well!" She called out from the study.
I locked up the door behind me, and went towards my brother's car. He drove a weird 1980's Jeep. I can't exactly tell you what it looks like because he's made so many alterations. For example, my idiot brother put some old semi horns on the roof, plus a chair. For which he claims comes in handy for when the day comes when there's not enough seats in his car for people.
"Finally!" Jack shouted, rolling his eyes. "Hey! Careful with the seat, I just reupholstered them." He yelped, when I put my backpack on one of the back seats. "Geez, it's just a backpack."  I replied. "Yeah, well it's brand new! I like it that way." He vocalized, backing out of our driveway and heading for school.
We didn't speak again till we reached school. Mostly because Jack was blasting Hot Chelle Rae, that you couldn't even hear yourself think.
We finally arrived, and I reached for my backpack. "Okay, so meet me back here around 4:00, okay?" Jack said, opening his car door. "Fine." I mumbled climbing out and heading for the doors.
To my relief, Talia was standing at the front doors. "Aha! Your the rotten egg! Say what happened to you? You weren't at the bus stop." She questioned, following me into the school building and down the hallway. "Turn left." She instructed, before I even had a chance to respond. "I overslept, and then I got the bad news. So because Jack still goes here, I have to carpool with him to school." I answered, opening my locker up and putting some empty binders in. "What! No!! Who's going to be my bus buddy?!" Talia cried out. "Idk." I groaned.
