My phone goes off and I wake up, I turn it off and curl up not wanting to get up. I fall asleep and I hear my mom yelling.
-you better be ready in ten minutes or youll have to deal with me Cass.
I groan and rub my face throwing my feet over the bed to the floor and yawning, my shirt rises up a bit and I run my hands through my face.
I get up and look in the mirror, my bun is destroyed and my face is white so my freckles are really showing, I take a deep breath and go look in my closet for some clothes. I choose some mom jeans and a queen black t-shirt and I put on a sports jacket, I brush my brown hair and leave it, it looks kinda messy but it always does, I put on mascara and lipbalm and my black boots. I'm 5'5 (1,57) so not that short but still kinda short, my hair goes till the middle of my back and I have hazel eyes and medium sized lips.
I breath to calm myself down and open the door to leave my room.
I have 5 siblings so my house is always loud, although only four still live here, my oldest brother Lucas is away in college, he's 20 and in North Carolina, me and my parents and siblings are in a small town just outside Washington DC. There's me, Cass the reason we moved here from across the country, I'm 16, there's Liam my other older brother who's 17, my sister Amanda who's 18 and in college 40mins from here, Maia who's 14, James who's 9, my mom Lucy who's 37 (she had my brother when she was 17 but out grandparent's were supportive) and my dad Thomas who's 38.
-Hey mom- I say giving her a kiss while she tries to find something for James who's sitting at the table reading- what are you reading buddy?- I ask J leaning over his shoulder.
-Cherub-he says kissing my cheek.
-nice- I say fistbumping him.
I go over to the stove where my dad's cooking pancakes, our first day of school tradition and hug him and give him a kiss on the cheek.
-good morning
-Good morning sweety-he kisses my head- how'd you sleep?
Terribly and barely.
-Fine.- I shrug and he looks at me knowingly.
-I know this is hard but you're getting much better and this is important hunny.
I hug him again
-I know, I promise I'll try.
He smiles:
-thank you.
I sit at the table and Liam walks in the kitchen barely walking and clearly with a mood, he kisses my head and says:
-morning weirdo- before sitting down next to me and resting his face on the table I smirk.
My mom found what she was looking for and gives it to J rubbing his head.
-Maia, I swear if your not here in two minutes you'll regret it, remember I know where you live. -mom yells up the stairs with her hands in her hips she then goes over and kisses my brother's head that he hasnt taken off the table yet.
I think about what got us here, the past three years were awfull but it all exploded 10 months ago, that's when I had my biggest attack yet, I was interned in a psychiatric facility with clinical anxiety I spent 8 and a half months there and then we moved here in hopes that it'd help. I still have anxiety, that's not just something you cure so I still have a consult every wendsday at 6pm, It's gonna be hard to go to this new school especially since it's an intern school and Ill be staying there on week days starting tomorrow since my doctors thought that qould be the less stressful choice and a good way for me to improve socially and learn what I forgot but at least I still have today and my parents said if I didnt feel comfortable we'd find something else, at least Liam's coming too, I know it's to watch me but although I'd never admit it I'm thankful for that.
Maia walks in the kitchen and sits down smiling as usual, I don't know how anyone can be happy in the morning. She's only 14 but she's already really preety, I think a big part of that is because she's so kind and always smiling, she has brown big eyes and long brown hair and a delicate everything oposed to me, I'm more ruff looking and messy, she's like a flower and I'm like a always tripping...I dont know...bird? That makes no sense, jeez I need to sleep more.
It's not only Maia, Liam is wanted by almost every single girl that meets him, he's very athletic, tall with messy brown hair and hazel eyes like mine, the three look more like my dad, but Amanda, James and Lucas have my mom's ligh hair, a dirty blonde, Amanda has hazel eyes but James and Lucas have her greyish eyes and James has curly hair so I guess he's kind of his own person, but although the coloration is different we are very similar, a combination of my parents aho are also really preety, my mom has greyish eyes and dirty blonde hair and my dad has hazel eyes and brown hair.
-ok hun?-asks my mom looking at dad
-yeah?-he awnsers smiling his tipical smile that always makes my mom smile
-How are we doing with the pancakes? We have twenty minutes
-Well I only have two more to ho you can start eating this ones he says noding to plate full of pancakes next to him.
My mom kisses his cheek and says great picking up the dish.
-Liam go get the orange juice please.- my mom asks to wich he awnsers whith a grunt getting up too tired to argue.
Dad and Liam sit at the same time and we start eating our pancakes, I put sugar and cinamon in mine and we talk about nothing in special laughing.
-Ok kids go get your stuff we have to leave It's 8am and u have to be in school by 8:20 so you have five minutes- she says to Maia and James who are going to different schools then us.
-You guys need to go to yours is 30minutes away and starts at 8:40am- says dad wiping his mouth.
We get up and put our dishes in the sink and go to our rooms.
The house has two floors and is kind of big, mine, Liam's and Amanda and Maia's (they share the biggest room) rooms are in the floor upstairs, my parents' and Lucas and james's that they share are downstairs.
-BYE KIDS, LOVE YOU.-Yells my mom from downstairs
-I DO TO-screams dad after.
-Love you too mom and dad- I awnser from the stairs after coming back from washing my teeth and walking downstairs and Liam screams something too and I hear the front door close. Liam is the one taking us to school so I wait for him, we leave the house at 8:10 ans since we need to be there at least five minutes early Liam speeds up so that we aren't late.
I can't believe this is happening. I take a deep breath and we're there.❤
