Stay With Me

Chapter 2

Chapter 2: *12 weeks later* 

  I growled as my aunt drove me to my new home. “Stop that.” She told me. I frowned even harder, and she wrinkled her eyebrows and looked into the rearview mirror. “Get that look off your face Valerie. You don’t want to make a bad impression on them.”  The “them” she was referring to was my new family, aka the Styles family. They were my long lost cousins or something out of a book like that.  I sighed and looked at the passing cars. I thought about how if my parents hadn’t died I wouldn’t be here. I sometimes blamed them for my miserable life. It was their fault for dying. I wouldn’t be in this mess. But I’d cry it off and feel even more terrible for blaming them.  The car stopped. Aunt Amber got out and looked at me through the door. “Let’s go.”  I grabbed my purse and walked through the wet yard. I looked at the guards, damn this place was tight. The security camera aimed on my aunt’s figure, then me. I twisted my face into my “You Can’t Sit Here” face, hoping whoever was on the other side was offended.  A boy opened the door, with curly brown hair and green eyes. “Hi.” He said, looking down at my 4 inch heels. “You are Valerie, right?”  “Yes.” I said bitterly. “Are you Harry?” I mentally told him that if he tried anything, my heels would be up nose faster than he could say "boobs".  He nodded and smiles. “And you must be her aunt.” Amber nodded and smiles at him as well.  “Well I’m sure you two will get along great.” I rolled my eyes and pushes pass him. Another boy, older, stood in the hall. His hair was perfect, and his eyes were clearer and bluer than anything I’ve ever seen.  “Hi.” He said, his teeth straight and white. “I’m Louis.”
