I own nothing but Dorothy
"Are you ready yet?" My sister Sara yelled to me. I was in the bathroom getting ready for a party. I looked at myself, my red hair and green eyes. I was as ready as I was going to get. I walked out of my bathroom and saw Sara and her roommate Kate. I just knew that the two of them were going to get along great.
"Ready?" Kate asked me. I nodded. Sara drove all of us there.
"Okay, who's here?" Sara asked after we were there for a while.
"Well first thing you have to know is that Aaron Abbot is a prick, treats girls like dirt." they talked more about the new kid, but I could care less.
"There here." Kate said
"Who are they?" I asked.
"The Sons of Ipswich."
"Hey Kate." One of them said.
"Caleb." She saw another 'son of Ipswich' he had longish brown hair. Kate wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a kiss. "Your late."
"I had a thing with the family. Who's this?" He said pointing toward Sara and me.
"This is my new roommate Sara and her sister Dorothy. This is Pouge Perry, Tyler Simms, Reid-"
"Garwin," He said finding his way to stand in front of me. "Reid Garwin." I smiled."So where did you transfer here from?"
"East Boston High " I said.
"I think you going to like it here." We talked for a few more minutes. Until Reid saw Aaron walk up and start being mean to Caleb.
"Posers make me want to puke." Aaron said
"Is that right?" Reid said. I watched him. His eyes were covered by a ring of fire, then back to his normal blue. One of Aarons friends began to puke. I couldn't help but laugh. I looked back to Reid. Could he be like me?
"Come on Dorothy, stop staring we got to go." I followed after Sara.
"Do any of you need a ride?" Sara asked and the 'new guy' said he did. He got into the back seat with me.
"Chase." He said. I nodded, something was not right about him.
"My car won't start!" Sara yelled to the 'Sons'.
"Hop in with us" Tyler yelled.
"I can't just leave my car."
"Ill fix it." Reid said. He walked over to the car and opened up the hood. We waited for a few moments.
"Now try." Sara tried starting the car and it worked.
"Thank you!" Kate said and he smiled at me. The sirens were getting closer as Sara drove away.
"Reid has a thing for you Dorothy." I smiled. "He's a good person, a bit of a rebel though." Sara looked at me. I shrugged my shoulders.
"So Chase where are you from?" Kate asked.
"Colorado," He said, I could feel that something wasn't right with his answer. When we got back to Spencer I walked straight to my room, only saying good night to Sara and Kate. I walked into my room and changed into a pair of short plaid shorts and a red tank top. I walked out of my bathroom, as I walked out I could start to see my vision clouding. I could feel my power taking over, I tried to feel my way to my bed but I didn't get that far, I collapsed and let the vision take over me.
I saw Sara, lying on her bed, motionless. Chase and Caleb were also in her room. They were arguing, Chase seemed like he was pushing the air in front of him. Caleb went flying into the air.
I woke up, I was lying on the wooden floor, I lifted me hand to my head and felt a bump. I went over to my desk and found my room keys. I just had to tell Sara what I saw. I walked out of my room and ran right into Reid.
"Oh, sorry." I said. He looked at me.
"In a hurry?" He asked. I looked at what I was wearing.
"Yeah just a bit" I said laughing.
"Wanna hang out with Tyler and I tomorrow?"
"Yeah, that sounds like fun. Get to know the area around here."
"See you then" He said.
"Bye."
"Night Thea."
"What did you just call me?"
"Thea, I thought Dorothy was a bit of a mouth full so I came up with Thea." I smiled.
"Night Reid." I wandered down the hall looking for Sara's room. I gave up looking for it after a half hour. I walked back to my room and climbed onto bed.
I woke up the next morning around noon. I immediately called Sara.
"Hello?"
"Sara, can you come over? I have to talk to you."
"I can't. I'm hanging out with Chase and Kate. We are in town shopping, need anything?"
"No I think I'm good. I'll tell you later. Bye"
"Bye" Sara said before I hung up. I got up and changed into a light pink spaghetti strapped shirt and jeans. I put my keys and phone into my purse. I heard a loud knock on my door.
"Its open." I said automatically, forgetting that I barely know anyone in this town.
"Didn't anyone tell you that it was unsafe to leave your doors unlocked?" I looked up and Reid was standing there.
"Hey" I said smiling.
"Well, Tyler and I are going to go see a movie, then we are going to Nicky's."
"Nicky's?"
"Thea," He said placing an arm around my shoulder. "Nicky's is the best place to go around here."
"Okay. Cool. I'm ready to go when you guys are."
"I'm ready, were just waiting on Baby Boy." I nodded, assuming it was Tyler. I wanted to ask him about what I saw last night. But what if I had been seeing things? We found Tyler wandering aimlessly looking for my room.
"You look lost" I said laughing.
"Yeah, your room is really hard to find." I nodded.
"Well, let's go." Reid said leading us towards the exit. We got to the movies and decided to watch, Accepted. I had already seen that movie, but I loved it so much, I was willing to watch it again. Right I the middle of the movie Reid decided to be funny and start throwing popcorn at me. So I threw some back. We got into this huge popcorn fight, even Tyler joined in eventually. When the movie was over we walked out of the movie theater and into Tyler's black hummer. Tyler drove to Nicky's. I got out of the car and walked inside with Reid. He immediately walked to the pool tables.
"You any good?" He asked. I shook my head.
"No I think I'll just watch." I said sitting up on the rail. He walked over to me and placed his hands on my legs.
"You know, I can teach you." His face was so close to mine.
"I just might have to take you up on that." I said smiling.
"Hey sis!" Sara said placing her hands on my shoulders.
"Hi Sara." I said getting down from the rail, Reid helped me. I walked over to the table Kate and Pouge were sitting at. I sat down next to Kate.
"You and Reid looked pretty cozy over there."Kate said to me when Sara wasn't paying attention. I nodded trying not to smile. "He is a good kid, most people just think he is rude and obnoxious. But he is really nice." I nodded, looking towards him and Tyler playing pool.
"Want anything to eat?" Pouge asked Kate.
"I'll just pick at what your having." When Pouge got back I decided to go see how the pool game was going. I sat back down on the rail.
"Hey baby." Aaron said.
"Go away." I said ignoring him the best I could.
"Come on, you know you want me." He said placing his hands on my hips. This move was responded by Reid punching him in the face. Aaron punched him back, I think that this was from him losing the game. They walked outside and Caleb and Pouge soon followed. I walked back over to Kate and Sara.
"What happened?" Sara asked
"Aaron was being stupid towards me and Reid punched him." I was out of the corner of my eye Aaron and his friends walk back inside. I walked towards the back where Caleb, Pouge, Reid and Tyler still were. I looked out the door and saw Caleb and Reid arguing.
"All right go for it tough guy." I heard Caleb say. Reid threw a barrel at him, and Caleb pushed it to the side. Caleb pushed the air in front of him, Reid went flying backwards into racks of wood. Tyler rushed over to help him. I looked at Reid, his eyes were black. I turned around and walked back to the table. So he was like me, in some ways I guess. I saw Reid walk back into the room.
"Come on." He waved to me and I walked over to him.
"Reid I need to talk to you." He nodded. Tyler drove us back to the dorms. I walked towards my room and Reid followed. I opened the door and walked in. I closed it behind Reid, I was thankful not to have a roommate.
"Reid I have something to tell you." I said slowly. I had no clue where I was going with this. I could feel a vision coming on, my vision started to go black, my legs buckled. Reid wrapped his arms around me, trying to hold me up but it was too late, I blanked out in his arms.
I saw Reid and I dancing at a festival of some sort. I was dancing so close to him, I felt so safe
"I love you." He whispered in my ear. I pulled away and looked at him.
"I love you too."
I woke up shaking, gasping for air.
"Thea, are you okay?"
"Yeah I think so."
"What the hell was that?"
"That was what I wanted to talk to you about. I can see the future, have visions. A special ability, like I believe you and your friends have. I have had visions my entire life, in one generation of my family, brothers, sisters and all, one I'd born with an ability to see the future, that's me." I said. "I saw you last night make that guy puke, and the ring of fire in your eyes. Tonight I saw you and Caleb arguing, so I wanted to talk to you about that."
"Wow, that's kinda cool." I nodded. "I was born with this power also. The first born male in the family has powers. You have to be careful when you use them. At 18, we ascend, our powers become our life, if we over use, we become older than we really are. Caleb's father is 44 but he looks 100. Caleb hates it when we use."
"Why do you then?"
"I honestly have no clue. What did you see?"
"I saw Caleb and Chase. They were fighting, using their powers."
"Chase?"He asked and I nodded.
"I didn't trust him from the beginning. Please don't tell anyone. I don't want to transfer schools again."
"I promise, I won't." He said kissing the top of my head and leaving.
