Jerome's POV

I was having another nightmare.

The last few weeks have been torture, with the nightmares non-stop. My newest one, and the worst one, was happening now.

I looked down at Poppy. She was 8 years old at the moment. Her blonde hair was in a ponytail and her blue eyes shone with tears.

"It's okay, Pops. Mom and Dads are suppose to fight-it's human nature." even though I was 11, I was trying to act older than I was.

As usual, mom and dad where having their daily screaming match. Poppy shook her head while covering her ears.

She looked up at me. "Tell them to stop. Please." She whispered.

I sighed, I knew I couldn't stop them from yelling at one another. "Um, why don't we go outside. It'll be quiter there."

Poppy nodded her head and we left the room. We slipped passed mom and dad and out the door. As soon as we where outside, Poppy started running around.

I looked to my left at the bench swing hanging off the porch. On the swing was my sister, Andrea. Her long golden hair was curly and her gray-green eyes where emotionless. Her skin was tanned well from sitting outside sun up to sun down.

"Hey Annie." My first mistake was using the nickname out step-dad calls her.

Andrea's eyes switched to me, they narrowed. "What do you want, Jerome? And don't call me that." She growled.

I nodded. "Right." I sat next to her. "Why are you out here all the time?"

"I hate them."

I looked at her in shock. "You don't mean that, Andrea. Your just upset."

Andrea shook her head. "No. I know my feelings, I hate them. It only took till now to realized it, though." She took a breath before saying something that made my heart drop into my stomach. "I'm leaving soon."

"where?"

"I don't know. But I'm not coming back."

I looked down. "We'll miss you. Poppy and I."

Andrea let herself give a small smile, the first in a while. "I love you both, too. It's them that will ruin it all." Andrea gave me a tight hug. "I love you, Gerbil."

I shot up in bed.

Andrea. God I missed her. She's my older sister by a year. She finally ran away when she was 12. It made my heart hurt to think about her.

I still don't know where she is. Mom said she made her choice and that if she really loved us, then she'd stay. I hated mom for this. I was month after our step dad had left that she left.

"Jerome, are you okay?" Asked Alfie from his bed.

I nodded. "Fine. Just a bad dream."

Aflie mumbled something and buried himself back under his blanket.

I laid back down and shut my eyes. Pictures floated around of Andrea. Her gold hair, gray-green eyes, the way she'd tell you what was wrong easily. I remembered how she'd smell exactly like honey and roses. Across her arms where always mosquito bites from being outside to long.

I miss you Annie. What can I say?

Eve though it's been about five years of no word from her, I still look. I search her on the internet, I spend the summer traveling around England for her. No luck.

A/N: What do you think? I'm pretty sure nothing like this has been done before in Anubis history. And, come on, can't you see something else in Jerome's life he's missing? About 3 or so reviews till the next chapter?
