Ok so i've started this new story off as i've kinda run out of inspiration for Lacy at the minute. Don't worry though i will get round to updating her soon, just need to think of how to take it further. This story is something i've been thinking about for a while now so thought i'd get it going.
As always reviews are welcome. Read and enjoy. Oh and pictures for my stories can be found on my profile.
5th September 2007
So tonight's the night of the Dell's. I still haven't decided whether I'm gonna go. I know its tradition for all five of us to show our faces and do the whole I'm cooler than thou bit. I always enjoyed it, in previous years, but recently this whole adoration thing is getting a bit old. The things that used to make us special and different are now making us tear apart at the seams. This fucked up little family of ours is breaking apart and none of us know what the hell to do to make it right again. Ok so were still the same as always or pretending we are anyway.
Caleb's the oldest and the leader, but he's started to get irritable and moody, complaining more than ever about the amount each of us 'use'. He's ascending soon and the thought of it is driving him crazy. He's been off though ever since his dad took up residence in the old colony house. Not that I blame him for that. Knowing your dad used that much must be enough to screw you up inside. I know the thought of all the power he's gonna get in a few weeks is driving him nuts. He's scared about whether or not he's gonna be able to resist it. He will though, that's just Caleb old mister reliable. But while he's being like this he's pushing the rest of us away especially me and Reid.
Okay so out of the group of us me and Reid have always been the unpredictable ones. We use as much as we like and we don't do what Caleb wants. We pull the grades we need at Spenser through all night cramming sessions the day before and we fall asleep in class. Reid's a player beyond all imagination and I unfortunately most often get roped into helping him win the next one over. It helps that he's my twin brother and I can't actually say no to anything he asks me to do for him. Just like he can't refuse me. But with Caleb cracking down on all using and we all being able to sense when the other does use, me and Reid have got it in the neck as we don't worry about addiction we use as much as we like.
So there was our first problem. We were all so tense about the amount we used that we were pulling apart and tension was being created where it really didn't need to be. However we've survived this before. We may have been able to survive if it wasn't for the other reasons.
Pogue Parry the second eldest in our group is the leather clad motorcycle riding devil with long dirty brown hair and golden eyes. All right so you're getting the picture here the increased description of his muscular body and huge…hands. All right so here it is in black and white. Well blue seen as the pen I'm writing in today is blue ink. I love Pogue Parry. With all my bad girl heart. Problem. Of course there's a problem it's called Kate and happens to be one of my best friends. She's also Pogue's official girlfriend. However about 2 months ago me and Pogue had gotten very drunk and ended up in bed. Gosh what a night that had been. But then I've already written in here about that. Had to use as well to keep it concealed as Reid got nosy and found this book. Wouldn't it just be funny to see his face when he finds out I've slept with pogue. Actually it probably wouldn't as his brotherly honour code would demand he kill pogue which would kind of suck as I enjoy sleeping with him. Pogue not Reid. That's just urgh… so for two months me and pogue have been sneaking around without the excuse of being drunk anymore. So one more reason why were all so tense. It's awkward between me and pogue when where together with all the others. Especially when he's with Kate. So awkward in fact that even Tyler the king of being able to turn away and stick his head in the sand has picked up on the fact that me and pogue hardly talk.
Tyler's the youngest of the five of us and has had the most massive crush on me since we were little. He's the sweetest out of the group and he gets taken for granted most of the time. He tends to fade into the background. He sticks close to my brother most of the time and that's bad in itself. He gets carried away with what Reid does and unlike Reid he is generally the one that ends up getting hurt. Just like he did this summer. Somehow Reid managed to persuade the poor boy to take Kira out on a date. So they went out and according to Reid got quiet close. Like pogue and me close. It was all going fine for 6 months they dated and even I had to admit that it seemed like they'd actually stick. Until a few days I opened the door to a sobbing Tyler. It took a few hours for me to get it out of him that he'd 'accidentally' told kira about the powers we had and she'd freaked and left him. He'd spent the entire morning trying to find her only to find her in the arms of Aaron Abbot, the greatest prick in the history of very big male pricks. He'd had to wipe kira's memory of us and place another with an explainable reason why they had broken up. This hadn't exactly gone down well with Caleb as you could imagine.
So were finally breaking up the sons and daughter of Ipswich the great group of which ruled the school's corridors ever since kindergarten.
Caleb the leader
Pogue the dare devil
Reid the player
Me the adrenalin junkie
Tyler the sweetheart
Were tearing each other apart. My mom say's its just teenage hormones and growing apart with age. But she doesn't now the full extent of the reasons behind the splits. I just hope we can all keep it together till the end of senior year. Then we can all bugger off to college and get on with our own lives.
I looked down at the last few sentences I had wrote. I didn't now why it was so important for us to stay together until the end of senior year I just knew that we had to. I closed the book and looked up staring out of the window. The sun had gone down while I had been writing and no doubt down at the dell's Darnell and a few of his mates would be setting up the speakers and getting the music ready. "Robbie" I sighed as I heard my twins booming voice coming up the stairs and the knock on my door. He never waited for an answer but threw the door open. "God Reid wait for an answer what if I hadn't been alone"
"Then I'd have to kill whoever you were with" he answered without a pause "Now hurry up and get ready if we don't want Caleb to beat us with that stick he carries around permanently up his arse"
"So were going then" Reid frowned at me
"Why wouldn't we be going" I shrugged
"You know things haven't been easy for a bit" I tailed off not knowing how much more to say
"Look Robbie I know things have been difficult for a bit, but we don't give up remember you and me forever" I smiled at him.
"You know you should show all these girls how sweet you are they'd love you forever" he made puking motions
"God no. Then I'd actually have to talk to them"
"And there you go ruining the moment again" he laughed and ruffled my hair.
"Come on sis get your butt moving. Hearts to break and all that" he winked at me and walked out of the room. I got up and moved to the closest staring in the mirror attached to the walls. As fraternal twins go of different sexes me and Reid actually looked scarily similar. Hair that rare natural platinum blonde colour mine was long though dead straight hanging to just above my waist. Eyes that were the same shape and colour as my brothers, I was tall as well only a couple of inches shorted than Reid I'd reached my full height of 5'11 at sixteen. I was skinny as well, straight up and down with no curves what so ever. And if I was being honest I was flat chested enough to get away with not wearing a bra if I wanted to. I flung open the closest and stared at the racks of clothes I had. Not really much choice I thought. I grabbed the well worn pair of leather trousers I lived in layered a black tank top with a dark green t-shirt, grabbed my leather jacket and a pair of fingerless gloves I had 'borrowed' off Reid, along with my doc martins. Reid would have already gone to meet the guys on the hills before coming over to the dells. I on the other hand would take my bike round to the beach and meet Kate. My bike was a big part of my life and coincidentally what first got me closer to pogue than any other of the guys when were we growing up. Me and pogue had always been the dare devils in leather and had scorned cars for the much quicker and more exciting method of getting there with a 150mph piece of metal between your legs. My recentness baby had been a present from the guys for my 17th birthday a Yamaha YZF R6. I yanked on the helmet and positioned myself on the bike. Slamming the visor shut. So here we go again. Back to the dells then back to the dorms. Hopefully nothing would go to wrong tonight.
The music was already pumping and the party in full swing when I switched off my bike and propped the helmet on the handle. No one would touch it for fear of my brother so it was safe where it was. I got down to the fire and nodded to people and did the whole hello, and meaningless how was your summer. Before a girl threw herself on me clinging to me. "Robbie, where the hell you been" that would be Kate. Pogue's girlfriend. A pretty girl about 8 inches shorter than me, with mocha colored skin long black hair and chocolate eyes. "Sorry I got busy"
"So busy you couldn't call your best friend" yeah right like she'd want me to call her when I had been lying underneath her boyfriend. That would have gone down well.
"Shall I say sorry again" she pouted at me and motioned to a girl stood next to her
"Sarah this is Robbie, my supposed best friend" I glared at Kate before turning to look at the new girl. Also shorter than me. Which wasn't difficult, with blonde hair, more golden than mine though, green eyes and a ready smile.
"Hi, um you're the transfer from the Boston public right" she nodded
"Yeah that'd be me"
"Bit of change isn't it Spenser" she nodded again "Why'd you wanna come here then"
"I wanna go to Harvard" I smiled
"You'll wanna talk to Caleb then." She frowned
"Who's Caleb?" I was about to answer her when Kate whispered in an awestruck voice
"There here" I snorted
"God Kate after six years of them don't sound so impressed when you say that"
"Who's she talking about" Sarah whispered to me
"Sons of Ipswich" Kate answered
"Hey what am I then, a tree" Kate glared at me
"Your tall enough to be" I was about to retort when Caleb, pogue, Reid and Tyler reached us. Kate threw herself on pogue and kissed him soundly "You're late"
"I know sorry, we had to wait for Reid" Reid grinned
"And I had to wait for Robbie" six pairs of eyes turned to stare at me
"Since when did you take a long time to get ready Robbie" pogue asked, sarcasm lacing his voice. I glared at him
"You don't now everything about me pogue parry so don't start" he smirked at me as Reid stepped forward and threw his arm round my shoulder. I glared up at him. Still resenting the fact that he had grown taller than me meaning I had to look up at him. Reid eyed up Sarah not even bothered about my glare
"So who's this" he said.
"Sarah. She's Kates new roommate, and don't start getting any ideas about her Blondie. I like her" I said angrily.
"Blondie" he said laughter in his voice "You looked in the mirror lately Rob" I poked him some more when Sarah spoke up
"Ok so I'm guessing from the way you talk and the fact your scarily alike means your brother and sister. But mind introducing the rest" I nodded
"Yeah sorry, um this is my very annoying twin brother Reid, that's Caleb, Tyler and oh good god, the one Kates trying to suck the face off of is pogue" Sarah laughed and nodded, while i tried to supress the stab of jealously biting at my gut as i watched kate and Pogue together.
"all right so dark and handsome is Caleb, baby face is Tyler, blondie is Reid and hot biker boy is pogue" I laughed this time as all three boys scowled pogue to busy to notice Sarah's comment.
"I'm not blonde"
"I don't have a baby face"
"I'm so not dark"
they all answered at once. I laughed a bit more. Already liking Sarah. Before anyone else could say anything Tyler stiffened and his eyes shut down. Kira and Aaron appeared in front of us. I quietly slipped out from under Reid's arm and went to Tyler wrapping my arm round him instead.
"I see you decided to come back then Robbie. I didn't now Spenser readmitted criminals" Reid tensed and took a threatening step forward
"Back off abbot unless you like the broken nosed look" Aaron glared at Reid
"Ah yes the little puppy dog protector appears how sweet"
Reid launched himself at Aaron quickly being caught and held by a now broken apart Kate and pogue.
"look Aaron you and kira made enough trouble this holiday why don't you just piss off back to whatever hole you crawled out of and stay there" kira glared and wrapped an arm round Aaron
"come one Aaron these posers are making me wanna puke"
"Is that right" Reid shouted back. I got his meaning loud and clear and turned to see him just in time to witness his eyes turned pitch black and flame for a second before one of the flunkies Aaron had brought with him puked all over Aaron's letterman jacket. We all jumped back laughing as Aaron swung on his poor friend.
"You IDIOT" he smacked him one and was about to really get into it with him when another new guy appeared pulling him off. Before much else could happen the speakers cut off and Darnell's voice floated through them
"Hey people Nathan just called said three cop cars are coming this way on old dell road"
panic erupted kids running every which way. I felt Reid and pogue grab separate arms and yank me off to the tree's I'd parked my bike in.
"Guys I can run on my own" they didn't stop or bother answering me just continued dragging me till we reached my bike. I twisted round Reid to find Kate and Sarah "Yo girls I'll see you back at the dorms" they smiled and nodded at me. Reid grabbed my helmet and pushed it onto my head
"Go" that was all he said before disappearing off to the hummer. Leaving pogue in front of me.
"I'll see you back at the dorms" I nodded. You can't say much with a helmet on "Leave your door unlocked" I nodded again and he ran off to the hummer. I slammed the visor of the helmet down and revved the bike out of the tree's flying down the roads to my first night back at the dorms.
Well thats it for one chapter. I think i'm gonna like writing robbie.
