CH.1 Moving
I was in Brooklyn, New York with my dad and my little brother, Jason. My dad hated it here so he decided to move to La Push, Washington. I was packing up everything wanting to leave. When I was
done packing up, I went downstairs to tell my dad I was done. He was with Jason, helping him pack up. I put all my stuff in the car. We finally got to the airport,it was really crowded with a whole bunch of people. My dad pushed his way to the front desk.
"Three tickets for La Push, Washington!" My dad said basically yelling.
He gave the man the money and gave us three tickets. We got on the plane and took our seats. I started to think about everything that happened in New York. First I thought about how my mom died in a drive by shooting while she was with my little brother [Thank god he didn't get hurt]. I thought about how my dad almost got stabbed. When I was done thinking I fell asleep. When I woke up I heard my dad talking to my little brother and making him laugh every now and then.
"Good morning sunshine."My dad said.
I looked around and the speaker went off and said "WERE LANDING". We got off the plane and we saw a crowd of people surrounding the plane. We got threw the crowd of people and dad rented a car for us. Then we started to drive around the city looking for a house. My dad found one and bought it. We started to put furniture in the house. My room was right by my brothers room, which sucks because he screams every time he hears something. By the time we were done it was midnight. I looked over were my brother was and he was passed out on the couch. I told my dad I was gonna bring him up and he nodded. I picked him up and brought him up. Then I got into a pair of shorts and a t-shirt then went up to bed. In the morning I got dressed and went to a little restaurant and went in. I went to the counter and ordered some food. When I was done I threw out my trash. I walked out when my phone was vibrating. My dad said to get back home. When I was reading and walking I bumped into someone.
"Watch where your going bitch!"The girl said. I muttered slut and she heard it.
"Hey Leah wait up!" the guy said out of breathe. He finally caught up to her.
"Oh hi i'm Seth."
"Mia." I said.
"This is Leah." he said.
"Oh."
"Do you want to hang out with us?" he asked.
"Can't my dad needs me."
I caught Leah just staring at me. I said bye to them and left. I got home and asked my dad what he needed me for. He said I had to watch Jason. My dad is going out with a girl named Mary he met her online. He left and I got Jason out to feed him. He eventually fell asleep. I put him in his crib and left. I started to watch TV. I watched TV for a hour until my brother woke up. I got up and got him. I fed him. I sat down with my brother watching some baby show. My dad walked in with his girlfriend Mary. I got up and went to the kitchen where they were.
"Did you have fun?" my dad asked.
"Why would you even ask that?"
"To annoy you." he said with a grin.
"Shut up." I heard Mary laugh a little.
"Go take Jason up."
I went to get Jason, I took him upstairs and put him in his crib. I went back downstairs. I walked
into the kitchen. I saw them making out.
"You know there's kids here." They both looked at me.
Mary blushed while my dad looked embarrassed.
I said "awkward". Then Mary gave my dad a kiss and left. I went in the living and changed the channel to mtv. Silent library was on. My dad looked at me like I was stupid. I looked at him like he doesn't like guys who get their balls hit with something.
"Lets watch something else." dad said. He must be crazy, he knew I wasn't gonna give it up.
"No." He said fine because he knew I was gonna win so he went upstairs.
I got tired and went upstairs. I got on my shorts and tank top. I fell asleep. I woke up in the night. It was hard to go back to sleep. I finally fell asleep. It was hard to fall back asleep in a new place. I remember I always heard screaming and gun shots. Nothing was going on, all I could hear were crickets and the sound of rain and thunder. I could tell I was gonna like it here.
