Calissta and Jade were sisters. It was simple, really. They cared for each other, yet they fought as sisters tended to do. But at the end of the day, they were family either way.

Even though they had more differences than similarities, Calissta and Jade were closer than people expected. Almost as if they were twins, they would often finish each others sentences, to the point that people thought that they communicated telepathically. Their differences outweighed their similarities, but not in the unpleasant way.

Calissta was sixteen years old, where Jade was thirteen. Calissta was pale with light brown hair. Her eyes were a light, moss green. Jade on the other hand, had dirty blonde hair that ran in soft curls down her back. Her eyes were a light blue color, almost grey. Calissta preferred the comfort of her room, when she had time to herself. She enjoyed listening to music while she read, or sketched. While she did enjoy going out to hang with her friends, her preference was her time to herself. Jade, however, could not stop moving. Whenever there was downtime, she jumped at the chance to go out somewhere. Jade was more comfortable when she was with friends, rather than staying in solitude all day. But the sisters loved each other all the same.

Jade and Calissta's family situation was not one to be envied. Their parents were divorced, and they barely ever saw their mother. The reason for the divorce was that their father had caught their mother with another man. Later he found out that the affair had been going on for months without his knowledge. So the girls lived with their father, as he had been the one who won the custody battle in court. It didn't bother them that they stayed with their dad. He was their father, after all, and they loved him.

But as the months went on, the girls noticed that he had a tendency to come home later and later from work. He would spend countless hours at the office, and wouldn't come home until midnight or later, leaving his young daughters to fend for themselves for the night. Some nights he would come home drunk, and would yell at the girls if they weren't in bed by the time he stumbled through the door. It worried them greatly.

Most nights, Jade would seek the comfort her older sister brought, and she would creep into her sister's bedroom. Despite Calissta's constant grumbling and complaining about the lack of sleep, she would half heartedly toss back her covers to allow Jade the solace of her bed. They were the other's stability during this trying period.

One of those days where their father was home late, Calissta decided that it was time to intervene. As the oldest woman in the house, she took this on as her responsibility. She sat in one of the armchairs in their small house, and faced the door. At around 2:30 am, the door was opened with a loud bang, and Calissta's father entered the house.

"What the hell are you still doing up?" he bellowed.

"Waiting for you, dad." Calissta replied coolly.

"Why? It's late, and I'm tired. Get your ass up to bed. NOW!" he screamed. Calissta jumped slightly at the sudden change in volume, but she held her ground, nevertheless.

"Dad, we need to talk about your drinking. It's getting out of hand." she said, softening her tone. She hoped that by doing this, her father would relax enough to listen. But as he was completely under the influence, his patience ran on a thin line.

"What is wrong with you? I told you to get to bed." her father replied, avoiding the question completely.

"I suppose we'll talk about this in the morning then." Calissta replied, hoisting herself out of the chair. She walked briskly around her drunk father and sprinted up the stairs, taking two at a time, just to be safe. When she entered the sanctuary of her bedroom, she wasn't surprised to find Jade huddled up, hiding under the comforter.

"It's okay Jade." Calissta said, placing a comforting hand on her sisters arm. "Just go to sleep." Silently, both girls, slid under the covers and drifted into uneasy sleep.

So here's my first chapter. I hope you enjoyed it. Please review, I need some critiques to know how to make it better.

Thanks a ton,
