Jessica Roberts

Background: Jessica's family has always ignored her, but when something went wrong then she was to blame. Jessica never did anything to get in trouble; in fact she was the quiet child in the family. Jessica was an only child, but that didn't mean that her parents cherished her or something. Her parents were greedy people that would probably sell their own daughter for money if they could. Jessica would be going to college this year, but her parents forced her to get a job to bring them in more money. Jessica's parents had high paying job, but as I said before they are greedy. Jessica would go to her grandparent's house any chance she got. Her grandparents were kind people and they loved Jessica dearly. Jessica wished to escape the life that she had now.

Story start

"Jessica get down here now," Jessica's mom Cindy yelled. Jessica stood from her bed and ran downstairs. "Yes mother," Jessica said as she stood in front of her mother. Cindy handed Jessica the phone and glared as she left into the kitchen. "Hello?" Jessica said curiously but calmed down when she heard her grandmother's voice. "Happy Birthday sweetie your grandfather and I were wondering if you wanted to come over today," Anne, Jessica's grandmother asked. "Thanks grandmother and I'd love to come over. Give me ten minutes and I'll be right there," Jessica said and hung up the phone after saying goodbye. "Who was it?" Cindy asked as she stepped out of the kitchen. "It was my boss. He needs me to work today," Jessica lied. "Well then hurry up and get out of here," Cindy yelled at her daughter. Jessica ran upstairs and slammed her bedroom door.

"I hate her," Jessica thought as she put on her tennis shoes and put on her favorite leather jacket. It was winter outside, and the air had a strong bite to it. Jessica grabbed her house keys because she would be locked out of her house if she came back later, and she ran downstairs. "Work hard and bring me that money as soon as you get home," Cindy ordered as Jessica opened the front door. "Yes mother," Jessica said and closed the door behind her. "Like I want to give you my money," Jessica thought as she started running down the street. Jessica had been in the swim team and track team at her high school. Colleges had offered her scholarships for both, but thanks to her parents she couldn't accept them.

Jessica ran until she came up to a comfortable sized white house. She walked through the white fence lining the yard and stepped up to the front door. Jessica was about to knock on the door, when it flew open and her grandfather Joe pulled her into a big hug. "Happy Birthday honey," Joe said and he ushered his granddaughter into the house. The smell of pizza and cake met Jessica's nose and she rushed into the kitchen. "Wow thank you so much," Jessica said as she felt tears pool at the corners of her eyes. Her Grandmother Anne and Grandfather Joe pulled her into a loving hug. "You're welcome now come and eat before the pizza gets cold," Anne said and placed her granddaughter into a seat at the kitchen table. The three of them ate pizza in comfortable silence and that silence was broken as Joe belched after gulping down some soda. "Joe," Anne said disgusted but Jessica just cracked up laughing.

"Good one," Jessica said through her laughter and Joe said, "Thank you, Thank you very much." Anne shook her head and placed a slice of cake on the now empty plates. "Hmmm chocolate," Jessica said as she licked her lips. "I knew how much you love chocolate so I decided to make you a chocolate cake," Anne said and received a brilliant smile from her granddaughter. "Thank you Grandma," Jessica said and took a bite of her cake. Joe and Anne smiled as they too ate some cake.

"Alright time for presents," Joe announced as he stood from the table. Jessica licked the left over icing off of her plate and jumped from her seat. "You guys didn't have to get me anything," Jessica said but was shushed by her grandmother. "Nonsense everyone deserves something on their birthday," Anne said and pushed her granddaughter into the living room. Jessica sat down on the couch and Joe handed her three wrapped gifts. "Open the smallest one first it's from both of us," Anne said as she sat down beside her husband. "Alright," Jessica said and unwrapped the smallest present. A white box was inside and she opened it slowly. A beautiful Jade pendant stared back at her and she gasped. "This is beautiful," Jessica whispered as she took the pendant from the box. "We thought you might like it," Joe said and smiled at Jessica. "I love it thank you so much," Jessica said as she slipped it around her neck. The cool pendant sent chills up Jessica's skin, but they were good chills.

"Now open the others," Anne said happy that one of their gifts was liked. Jessica opened a medium sized present and a beautiful black lace dress was inside. Jessica stood up to see the full dress and stopped breathing. The dress was strapless and had a corset type top with green ribbon lacing in the back and the skirt part of the dress was black with black lace layered over it. "How did you afford this?" Jessica asked her grandparents shocked. "I made it," Anne said shyly and was squished by a big hug from Jessica. "Thank you so much," Jessica said and Anne laughed her off. "The shoes that I bought to match should be in that box too," Anne said and Jessica looked in the box again. Small black heels were inside, but Jessica had missed them before. The heels were simple but still cute. "Go put them on," Joe said and Jessica happily ran to the bathroom to do just that.

Inside the bathroom, Jessica put on the dress and the shoes and combed her messy black hair. "Wow," she breathed as she stared at herself in the mirror. Her eyes glowed as the light hit them. "Come on we want to see," Joe yelled from the living room, and Jessica walked out of the bathroom after turning off the light. "Gorgeous," Anne and Joe said as they smiled at their beautiful granddaughter. Jessica blushed and sat down to open her last present. After removing the wrapping paper she saw a movie that said '13 ghosts'. Jessica smiled and looked at her grandfather. "I knew how you liked ghosts so I thought I might get you a good ghost horror movie," Joe said and was crushed by a hug.

"I still don't get why such a beautiful girl like you would want to watch scary stuff like that," Anne said as she shivered at the scary movie cover. "It's interesting," Jessica said as she let go of Joe. Anne sighed and stood from the couch. "Well it's late and I'm going to bed. I want you to stay here tonight Jessica," Anne said as she hugged her granddaughter goodnight. "Do you want to watch this movie with me Grandpa Joe?" Jessica asked excited. "I'm sorry honey, but I'm tired too. You can stay up and watch it if you want to," Joe said as he too hugged Jessica goodnight. "Alright," Jessica said and took the movie from its case and put it in the player. Joe left the room and went upstairs to go to bed.

"I hope this is a good movie," Jessica said and got comfy on the couch. The movie started playing and Jessica smiled. "This is pretty good so far," Jessica thought after the movie was halfway through. "I feel bad for the ghosts. They never asked for their lives to turn out that way, and they couldn't choose who their parents were," Jessica thought sadly as the thought of her parents came to her mind. It was now at the part where the torn prince was trying to hit Dennis with his baseball bat. "Duck," Jessica yelled as she was too into the movie. Dennis ducked and Jessica breathed a sigh of relief. "Quiet down there Jessica," Anne called sleepily and Jessica apologized.

Jessica laid down on the couch and yawned sleepily. The movie was at the part where Jean was saying goodbye to her family and that she loved them. Jessica fell asleep thinking, "Life in the glass house seems better than my house." The TV glowed green like Jessica's pendant started glowing green. Jessica slept undisturbed by the green light that enveloped her body. Jessica disappeared from the couch and a small green light entered the TV. The movie stopped playing and the TV went black.
