"Stop or I'll bite off your finger", I said in my groggy morning voice.

*Poke*

*Po-*

*Bite*

"Ouchie Mommy Liza bit my fingie", yelled my four year old sister Ellie. 

"Well I told you to stop", I said with a glare. Lets just say I'm not the happiest person in the morning. She ran out crying and I knew there was only five minutes before my mother came up. 

I got up and crossed the hall into the bathroom to take a well needed shower. Once I was finished I wrapped a towel around my body and went back into my room. I was about to take my towel off when my fifthteen year old brother Ethan yelled,"Nooooo, don't not when I'm in here". He scared the crap out of me.  "Jesus Ethan what are you doing in here", I gave him my official death glare.

"Mom told me to come tell you ro leave Ellie alone", He grumbled walking out of the room and down the stairs.

I started to dry off. Once I finished I put on my black lace undergarments. Then through on some burgundy skinny jeans, an Ironman crop top, and my black vans. Walking back into the bathroom I put on some makeup and brushed my naturally wavey black raven hair. Then went down stairs grabbing my all black beanie on the way down. As I went into the kitchen I heard my mother talking about my upcoming seventeenth birthday.

"Harold dear maybe we should get her that horrid bike she's been wanting", wow my mother is so silly talking about it in such a open place. Acting like I hadn't heard anything I walked into the kitchen with a innocent smile on my face.

"Morning mommy, morn'in daddy", I said in a sing song voice.

"What do you know", my father asked. Damn I was a daddys girl so of course he could read me like a book. 

"What can't I be in a good mood", 

"Not at eight thirty in the morning", He replied. 

I gave him a pouty look and he let me off the hook with a sigh. That's when I noticed the fresh banana muffins sitting on the counter. Yummmmm. My stomach growled just as I reached for one. "Damn gurll you hungry", said Ethan. "How about you don't talk like your some wanna be gangster", I said and stuck my tongue out at him. 

"If you don't want me to cut off your tongue I suggest you put it back in your mouth", He replied with a smirk. 

See my parents don't stop us when we argue/fight. They think it's healthy to get out all of our feelings towards one another. I think their crazy. Grabbing another muffin and a water bottle, I gave my parents a kiss on the cheek Good bye. As I walked out of the kitchen I grabbed my bag and was off. We live in the city so I just take a bus close to my school. 

My brother always gets a ride from a friend. I could too, but I like walking I use this time to think about life. I had been waiting at the bus stop for about ten minutes and it still hadn't come. It's not usually late. I was about to walk away when the bus pulled up. 

"Good morning Madame, do you have a student card", the driver asked. 

"Yes I do, here", I replied handing him the old blue bus card. I walked to the back of the bus and sat down in a empty seat. Putting my bag beside me I put in my headphines and put on my favourite song, "Take me to the races", by Lana Del Rey.

I was almost to the school when and old women got on. She was short and had white hair. There were no more seats on the bus, so I moved my bag for her. "Oh thankyou sweetheart, you didn't have to do that", She replied. Her voice was soft and sweet.

"Oh no it was no problem at all, it's just a bag", I replied with a small smile.

She smiled at me and then said something very strange, Why haven't you I met you in our coven yet". Did she mean coven of witches...

"Ummm are you feeling ok Miss", I asked nervously. 

"Oh yes dear of course. It's just I know your not in my coven and we are the only one around for miles", she replied.

I gave her a look and got up to leave. One because she was freaking me out, and two because it was my stop. The bus stopped and I got off and ran to school. Once on school property I saw my best friend Brianne.

"Whats wrong with you. You look like you've just seen a ghost", She said curiously. What she didn't know is that I felt like I did. 

"It's nothing just thought someone was following me is all", I replied with the fakest smile I could muster up. She just nodded and we walked over to where we hang out before homeroom.  "So how was your weekend in Lake Fooley", I asked. I didn't want there to be silence after what I just went through on that dreadful bus ride.

"It was amazingly actually. I met this wonderful guy named Trenton and we hung out all weekend. OOOO and when it was time for me to leave he bought me this wolf necklace to remember him by, and gave me the most memorable kiss ever!", she squealed.

"Well i'm happy for you I hope you get to see him again", I replied. I've never been one of those girls who get jealous when their friends get boyfriends or start flirting with guys.  I'm genuinley happy for her. 

"Well he's coming down this weekend and I want you two to meet each other", Wow they must be really serious about each other and they only spent a weekend together. Oh well I'd love to meet him anyways.

"That sounds great now come on, we were late for homeroom almost everyday last week", I replied ushering her into to the school towards are lockers. They were right beside each other, but we only has three out of six classes together which sucks ass. 

"Yah, yah, yah. That wasn't my fault you had to go to the caf to get a cookie before class", she said sticking her tongue out at me. 

Boy this was going to be a long day.
