Chapter One -Wishing with a wacky necklace is always fun
"Oh yeah, sing it Willie! On the road again" the redhead head sang as she kept snapping her fingers to the beat. I laughed as I turned off the intersection of the highway. My best friend would be staying with me, while my parents were staying in England doing something for their job. I'm surprised they let me stay home, plus let my best friend stay with me.
"Are we almost there?" a male voice asked from the backseat
I looked in the front mirror at the teen, who was half asleep in the back. I almost forgot about Ethan, Hope's brother. He was also staying with us. I nodded and drove down a dirt pathway crossing a wooden old bridge.
"Here we are!" Hope squealed clapping her hands
In front of us was an old styled Victorian house that had a wrapped around porch and was barricaded on both sides' with trees. Three balconies were placed in front of three big windows the sun shined bounced off the windows making it glow in a mysterious way. Yup, my parents picked something kind of freaky!
"Hope did you have to squeal so loud you big dope" the boy in the backseat scowled his tan face scrunched into an angry scowl "Besides this place it's too big for just the three of us"
Hope stuck out her tongue at him and jumped out of the car
"Stop your whining and come on Ethan, besides it's not our fault you decided to go partying the night before we left." I reprimanded
Ethan muttered a 'whatever' and grabbed his suitcase; I sigh and followed the siblings up the stairs to my house. We stood in front of the glass doors before Hope opened them and dropped her bags in the foyer.
"Tour time" Hope sang in a sing song voice
I smiled knowing that Hope and Ethan had both been here before and every time they come over here they still act like they've never been to my house.
Hope followed me while motioning for Ethan to come on. The foyer walls were painted white, a Persian rug was placed in the middle of the ivory marble floor. A table with marble top and gold legs in the center, we walked further on and into the living room. I laughed at the furniture in here; the room was totally different than in the foyer. The living room right off the main hallway had been painted a color matching the cream colored love seat and couch. On the table were various pictures of us and my parents at the family's house in Greece. A glass coffee table sat in the middle of the room in front of the couch on an Oriental rug. A huge flat screen plasma TV was hung on the right wall facing the rest of the room for everyone.
They walked further on examining the mini rooms in the colossal house. After that they ended back in the foyer gathering their things that were in boxes.
"Let's get a move on bro" Hope chirped excitedly carrying a box
OOOOOOOOOOOOO
"JULES! GUESS WHAT I FOUND!" Hope screamed running into the kitchen holding a wacky piece of jewelry. Dropping the cereal box I had been munching on, I asked
"What is it?"
"It's your great grandmother's necklace." She exclaimed practically throwing the thing at me. I caught it and examined it; it was a gold heart-shaped necklace with a multicolored jewel set in the middle. The jewel gleamed in the kitchen light as I twirled it around, of course I remember it. It was my great grandmother's precious necklace, she said it was good luck and made any wish come true.
"You mean the one she said made any wish come true." I smiled twirling it again
"uhh Huh" Hope nodded
"Do you honestly believe my crazy great grandmother?" I questioned
"UHHH Yeah I do!" Hope said
Hope believed everything was magical, but who was I too stomped on her beliefs. I smirked thinking of way back when I told Hope I was part Greek, she basically jumped up and down with excitement.
Flashback
It was the second week for me in California, I had just moved all the way from Athens, Greece. Hope and I were just getting to know each other. It was a cold winter night and we had just come back from sledding.
"Hey, Julie" Hope said stirring her hot coco
"Yeah?" I asked
"What's your heritage?" Hope asked her blue eyes shining with curiosity
I bit my lip contemplating if I should tell her the truth or exaggerate, because my mom was African American and my dad was Greek. It really amazed me when people didn't know what I was.
"Hmm I'm black and Greek" I answered
"That's so cool! Do you like know Greek magic or something! OOOOOHHH! Are you related to a god?" she asked smiling
"No" I giggled
"That sucks" Hope said "Let's go bother my brother Ethan" she said getting up
End of Flashback
"Jules! Jules stop right there missy!" Hope commanded
I stopped walking and rested my hand on the stair railing,
"Listen what happen if this really does work?" Hope said waving it in my face. Nothing magical happened in this world, this is reality. I rolled my eyes
"Hope it's not magical."
"It is and I'll prove it" Hope said determination sparked in her blue eyes
I threw my hands in the air knowing Hope was not going to give up without being proved wrong. I drummed my fingers on the banister thinking about the little necklace.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"I've got it!" Hope exclaimed slamming her palms together
"Got what?" Ethan question
"She thinks my great grandmother's necklace is magical" I explained
Right now we were all sitting in the living room lazing around. All around us are Chinese take-out boxes. I was too lazy to cook and Ethan decided he needed food or he was going to die.
"Yes I'm going to show it to you now" Hope said running out of the room
"This is going to a disaster" Ethan mumbled with a mouth full of noodles in his mouth. I smiled and playfully punched him in the arm,
"Leave your sister alone" I teased
"But she's your friend" he scoffed pinching my cheek
"Do it again and I'll hurt you" I threatened keeping my face straight even though it was itching to breaking out into a smile. He raised one bronze eyebrow and laughed
"I'll be waiting for it, princess" he teased taking tugging on my barrette clip
Hope reappeared carrying a book tucked under her arm. I raised my eyebrow
"What's with the book?" I asked pointing a chopstick at her
She didn't reply and dropped it on the ground. A copy of the hunger games clanked on the floor. On her face was 'I'm going to prove you wrong' look.
"Now I'm going to show you how this thing works." Hope stated lifting the necklace over the book she muttered a few words under her breathe and nothing happen.
"Really? You stopped me from eating so you could do that" Ethan sighed
"Shut it Ethan" Hope looked at me "How about you do it, Jules" Hope suggested giving the necklace to me.
I grabbed the necklace and started swirling it around the book, "what was your wish?" I asked
"My wish is for all the characters to come to our world. To life" Hope smiled
I raised my brow and just shrugged and kept swirling the necklace around the book, before I knew it the necklace started to glow a bright green color and warmth spread through me. The book lifted off the ground engulfed in a white light. I let out a gasp as I dropped the necklace. The necklace stopped glowing as did the book too.
"I told you guys!" Hope hopped up jumping up and down "Magic is real!"
Boom
Boom
I jumped as lightening lit up the whole sky in an eerie way. The sky was a million shades of gray, painting its own pictures in the clouds. The similar smell of cut grass lingers in the air blowing from the open windows. I can hear the raindrops start to fall. As they kept hitting the roof it was loud and it sounded like crumpling tin foil.
"Nice magic trick" Ethan said chuckling
"It wasn't a magic trick! It was real. Now we wait" Hope smiled rubbing her hands together
Right now Hope sounded like a crazy person, that actually had a damn point! The necklace I so believe was a stupid piece of jewelry, turned out to be magical. Bullshit! This piece of jewelry was still a stupid piece of jewelry. I don't believe in magic.
"Hope, it probably has a light bulb or something in it to make it glow" I explain holding the necklace. When I touched the stone a slight hiss emerged from it. A searing hot pain went through me and I dropped the necklace clutching my hand. I could still feel the pain.
"Are you okay?" Ethan asked scooting over and examining my hand
The pain was still there. I felt blood seep through my enclose hand and I groan knowing that it wasn't just a slight burn.
"Come on I'll bandage it for you" Ethan said grabbing my hand and helping me up.
OOOOOOOOOOOOO
"Isn't Benjamin Stone so sexy?" Hope squealed pulling out the poster of the shirtless blonde.
"Come on! I'm hotter than that" Ethan snorted getting up
We were now in Hope's room helping her unpack and just talking. We didn't speak much about the creepy thing that happened in the living room. It was still raining outside which dampened my mood and even worst was this stupid bandage that Ethan bandaged for me. I sat Indian style on Hope's unmade bed watching reruns of Nine lives of Chloe King. There was nothing else on anyway and I couldn't exactly see with Ethan in my way.
"Move outta the way" I ordered
"You can see, I'm made of glass ya know" Ethan joked putting his hands on his hips in a feminine manner
Hope stifled a laugh and I smirked
"Don't be a smartass" I said
Ethan stuck out his tongue and exited the room probably to unpack too. Exhausted from everything that happened today I slowly walked out of Hope's bedroom and into my own. The only thing that's made up is my bed and I crawled into it, feeling tired I fell asleep.
Something or should I say someone was shaking me out of a peaceful sleep.
"Hey! Jules! Wake up!" someone was yelling in my face. I knew that voice all too well; my eyes flew open to Hope's voice. Of course she was sitting on me,
"Why are you waking me up in all hours of the morning?" I said trying to rub the stuff out the corner of my eyes.
"First it's 4:00 in the morning. Second, I think we have intruders downstairs." Hope answered
This came to me this afternoon and I just had to write the first chapter! The second chapter will be up either today or tomorrow. I haven't decided yet! :)
What do you guys think so far? It is good or is it bad? Please tell me! Your advise is always taken into consideration.
Anyway, for those who are reading my other fanfic 'Rebirth'. Don't worry I haven't abandon it! Actually I'm really sorry about leaving you guys for soo long! But I'm back and I will being getting back to writing it. Also I think I might rewrite it.
