Collen's pov

I was sitting in my room on my bed watching a fly buzz around my window. It was funny to watch it flip out as it beat itself on the window trying to escape the room. My room didn't look much different from my brother's but a lot different from my sisters, the room was painted a sky blue color with black boarders. My bed was in the far back right corner my dresser was next to my walkin closet and my bed side stand had a lamp and my favorite book ,Shadow and bone, the book was very interesting and confusing at times but a great story line.

"Collen! Lets go!" I heard my oldest brother Notch yell from down stairs. I stood up and fixed my hair over my left eye and put the hood on my jacket up. I walked over and picked up my backpack and ran down stairs to find my older brother impatiently waiting and tapping his foot on our hard dark oak wood floors. My other 3 seconded older brother Steven or Steve was just sitting on the couch doing.... Doing um... I don't know what he's doing. I didn't really talk much but they new what I ment when I gave weird faces or things with my head. I tilted my head and razed an eyebrow. He looked up at me and laughed a bit.

"Meditating." He stated and got up off the couch. I nodded my head in response. I turned tords Notch and he rolled his eye.

"Come on Steve lets go." He said and opened the door then walked out into the rain. I followed them and we started walking to school. The walk was better then my others. I didn't get picked on by notch or is goons today, I know what your thinking,why would your own brother pick on you but that will be explained later.

As we walked it was quiet and calm I liked it. My brother ,Steve, tried to break the silence by asking me a question.

"Collen?" He asked in a quiet voice. I looked at him and tilted me head. He sighed and continued talking.

"Why are you so quiet?" He asked. I looked down and thought about it, I really don't know why I don't talk, I also never thought about it. I looked at him and shrugged. He sighed again and kept walking. I trailed behind them so I could listen to music. I pulled out my head phones and started listening to the song Hope by Idina Menzel her voice was beautiful and calling.

This is a story

Of a bird with no wings

But certain that it can fly

I clung onto the word as if they were the most important thing in my life and they kinda were...

Sailing on love

Into the head winds

Forcing its way by an-

My brother ,Notch, ripped the cords out of my ears as we arrived at school. He wasn't to nice about it. he punched me in the arm and threw my head phones into the road as a car drove by and crushed them into a million pieces. I sighed and followed them inside. The hallways of the school were loud, louder then normal, I heard small talk as I walked past people.

"Look its him...." One said to her friend

"Hey freak show!" Another yelled

"Did you hear about the new girls?" One asked. This one caught my attention the most and intrested me too.

'New girls?' I thought. 'Interesting' I walked up to my locker and found that someone had writen freak on it. I sighed and opened my locker, I grabed my English and science books, then a rag and disinfectant, to clean off the writing on my locker. I stood in the hall for a while after cleaning the writing off. I walked to class slowly, trying to avoid class as much as possible today. Being an A student I wasn't worried about getting to class on time, I could just make up the work tomorrow.
