Lunar Eclipse Ch.1
Alexa's POV
"Ready for a new school year?" Allison asked me. "New year, new school. Pretty sure I'm used to it by now." I replied. My older sister, Allison and I were just about to start our new school year in Beacon Hills. Our family moves around a lot so we never stayed in one place too long.
Suddenly, Allison's phone started ringing. I sighed, almost certain it was our mom calling again. "Mom, three calls for our first day is a little over-doing it..." Allison said, confirming my suspicions. I shook my head and laughed. "Everything except a pen, oh my god I actually forgot a pen...Okay, okay, We gotta go. We love you." She hung up as the principal walked up to us.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." The principal said. We got up and started walking. "So you were saying San Francisco isn't where you grew up?" He asked us. "No, but we lived there for more than a year." Allison said. "Which is very unusual for our family." I added. "Well hopefully Beacon Hills will be your last stop for a while." He led us to a classroom.
"Class. These are our new students. Allison and Alexa Argent. Please do your best to make them feel welcome." The principal said. Allison took a seat behind some guy while I took a seat behind her. The guy turned around and handed her a pen. I tapped her on the shoulder and gave her a confused look. She just shrugged and turned back.
I leaned against the lockers as Allison exchanged glances with that boy that was sitting in front of her. "That jacket is totally killer." An amber-blonde girl said, suddenly standing in front of us. "And so is that top." She said to me. "Where'd you guys get it?" She asked. "Our mom was a buyer from a boutique back in San Francisco." Allison said. "And you two are my new best friends." She said.
A guy came up behind her and they started kissing. Not awkward at all... "So this weekend, there's a party." The blonde started saying. "A party?" I asked. "Yeah, Friday night, you should come." The guy said. "Oh, we can't, it's family night on Friday...but thanks for asking." Allison politely declined.
"You're sure? Everyone's going after the game." The guy said. "You mean like football?" I wondered. "Football is a joke here. The sport here is lacrosse. We won national championship last year." The guy said. "Because of the team captain." The girl said, clearly talking about the guy. "We practice in a few minutes, if you don't have anything else to do." the guy said. "Well we were going to..." I was cut off by her dragging me and Allison. "Perfect! You'll come!" And she dragged us to the field.
We sat down onto the bleachers with Lydia, which was the blonde girl's name. Her boyfriend was Jackson who was currently on the field. I caught Allison staring at the same boy from English class. "Who is that?" She asked Lydia. "Him? I'm not sure who he is. Why?" Lydia asked. "He's in my English class." Allison said.
"Awe, does Allison Argent have a little crush?" I teased her. I swear I saw a hint of a blush on her cheeks but she turned away. I smirked in victory. We watched the practice go on and the boy Allison's been eyeing was actually pretty good. After school I went home but Allison took a drive somewhere.
She came home and I noticed her wearing a different shirt. A men's shirt. And her hair was soaking wet. "Uhhh...Something I should know about?" I asked her. "Just one thing. You're going to the party on Friday." Allison stated. "What? Why?" I asked. "Because Scott asked me." She said. "And that is...?" i asked.
"The boy I talked to in English." Allison clarified. I smirked. "Allison has a date. Allison has a date." I sang. "Real mature. Anyways, I'm dragging you with me." I groaned. "Fine but you owe me." I said. She smiled and hugged me. "Thank you. Thank you." She said. "I know. I'm the best sister ever." I praised myself. "Well I wouldn't say that..." Allison said. I scoffed and narrowed my eyes. She giggled and started running. I rolled my eyes and ran after her.
I took in my appearance as I got ready. Allison and I looked very similar. We had the same build but I was a bit shorter than her. My black hair had red streaks, and it fell all the way down to my waist. I wore a simple floral blouse with a leather jacket and then black jeans. I had in my usual black high top converse and then headed down the stairs. Allison stood by the doorway, looking pretty as always.
"Why must you always look so pretty?" I sighed. "Please, you look gorgeous without even trying." Allison said. We laughed and opened the door. Scott was waiting outside with his car and they stared at each other. I was standing there awkwardly until they finally stopped and we got on the road.
At the party, I kind of separated from Allison so she could had some time alone with Scott. I was getting tired of the crowd so I walked away and bumped into someone. "Sorry, i wasn't looking." I apologized. I looked up to see a dark hair man with green eyes staring down at me. Now I felt short.
"It's ok." He said and walked off. I shrugged and just chilled for the rest of the night before going to look for Allison. I found her outside staring at Scott who just ran off with the car. "Please tell me our ride didn't just ditch us." I said to her. "Allison." A voice called out. We turned and I saw the same man I bumped into earlier. "I'm a friend of Scott's. My name's Derek." he said.
"Scott told me to give you guys a ride home." Derek continued. "Because he ditched us and ran off?" I mumbled which earned me an elbow in the ribs from Allison. "Uhh. Sure, we'd love a ride." Allison answered. I sighed and went along with what she said. We got into his black camaro.
"Okay, when I turn 16, tell Dad to buy me this car." I whispered to Allison. She smiled and shook her head, chuckling. I looked to Derek who was smirking, almost amused. We finally made it to our house and got out of the car. "Thank you for making up for Scott ditching us." I said to him. Allison sighed. "No problem." Derek said and drove off. "Scott's gonna have to make it up to you and me, big time." I stated to Allison.
At school the next day, Scott was there and he was talking with Allison while I waited for our Dad. He finally came just as Allison and Scott were about to kiss. My dad got out of the car and was staring at them. "Ugh, dad, you ruined a moment." I said. He chuckled and kissed my forehead. Allison came over and we got into the car.
