My mother, father, brother, and I just moved into the farm we bought that was five miles outside of town. I stare at the old farm house till my brother Kyle tapped on my shoulder,
"Safire we need to head to town and grab some supplies" "okay let me put my stuff down and I'll grab the horses" he nodded and walked away Kyle was a giant in every meaning of the word he was seven foot five inches, and biceps eight inches tall but he was a gentleman he has been taking care of mother and me since father became sick. I walked in the house and it was cute the lavender walls brightened everything with the yellow curtains it looked so cheery but I had to focus I looked around till I found my room, put my stuff on the bed and head back out to get the horses.
Town was small so we got everything at one store but something caught my eye," Safire" I look back at Kyle and he's laughing at me I smile back ," I'll be home before dinner pinky promise" we locked pinkies and laughed at each other I turned around, as I rode toward the store I heard Kyle shout," I LOVE YOU SISTER!" so I yelled back ," I LOVE YOU TOO BROTHER!" and walked into the book store and bought ten books then walked out of the store straight into another girl my age I started picking up my books and said ," I'm sorry I didn't see you there" she started helping me ,"
It's okay your new here aren't you" I nodded and she smiled ," I'm Clare " " I'm Safire" Clare then asked if I was going to school tomorrow and explained the whole class thing to me ," Clare I got to head home I'll see you in class" she nodded and I jumped on the horse and rode home as fast as I could. I walked in not long before dinner hit the table Kyle smiled ," you barely made it Safi your slacking on us " " well if you must know I made a friend while I was in town" my mother spoke ," really what was her name sweetie" I smiled " her name is Clare and she is going to help me around the school tomorrow " " oh that's nice of her and it's nice that you made a friend so fast" I nodded in agreement.
After dinner I said my good nights and went to sleep. The next morning I race to the school to meet Clare, when she saw me she waved me over when I got over there she gave me the layout ," okay the rich girls think they run the place, the football players are dumber than a box of rocks, the smart kids think their better than everyone else, and that's about it" I look around and a tall, muscular guy with dark curly hair and blue eyes surrounded by his friends caught my eye I poke Clare and point to him,"Clare who's that" she giggles and says," that's Emmett McCarty he's the favorite guy here" " oh" he catches me looking at him winks at me, I look away and blush. " Come on Safire let's get to class" I walk away with her but I look back at Emmett and he's still looking at me. After school I was eager to leave but someone had another idea and that someone was Emmett.
He stood right beside my horse waiting for me ," hey your the new girl right " " yeah" he took my hand and kissed it," Emmett McCarty at your service...and you are" I put my hand back at my side," Safire Waters" he smiled and I then saw why all the girls liked him, he looked so innocent with his dimples that I didn't want to look away and I wouldn't have if Kyle hadn't rode up on his horse to break the starring between us," Hey sister sorry to break up this intense starring here but we need to get home it's something about father" my mind ran back to reality, I said," goodbye " to Emmett, got on my horse and we rode fast back home but it was to late mother was on the front porch crying, Kyle ran inside while I talked to mother she was covered in blood ," Mother what happened ?""something killed him" I ran inside to find Kyle and he was in father's room. Father laid in the floor covered in blood with his right arm clear across the room, Kyle was knelt beside father's body so I walked over to his right arm and there was a crucifix in his hand, "all those stories he would tell us as kids about vampires " Kyle interrupted , " Safire this is real shit not one of father's horror stories, Father was murdered and I'm going to find out by who" I picked up the crucifix from father's hand and ran to Kyle as he ran through the house looking for his hunting rifle I put the crucifix in his hand," please I'll feel better if you take it" he sighed and took it," Safire make sure father has a good funeral" I nodded and he ran out, jumped on his horse then rode off.
From then on it was me and mother I went to school slower than I did the day before," Safire" I look up and it was Clare," what's wrong" " my father was killed last night and Kyle left to find whoever did it" she kept trying to comfort me but nothing worked. After school there was a girl beside my horse she had long blonde hair, green eyes, with her arms crossed over her chest, " hello" she stared at me longer then finally said," stay away from Emmett he is mine" I shook my head confused,"he is his own man" after that she punched me in the nose and left as I looked around I saw everyone was laughing at me, everyone but two people Clare and Emmett who both looked shocked, Clare ran to me and helped me on my horse, got on her horse and rode beside me.
We got half way to my house when we heard a voice behind us," SAFIRE WAIT UP!" we both stop and look back and Emmett was riding toward us when he caught up with us he insisted that he had nothing to do with it and after twenty minutes of explaining why the girl had claimed him he stopped talking Clare told him, " It's okay but make sure it doesn't happen again" he nodded," Safire come here" I rode my horse close to his and he lightly touched my nose," it's not broken that's good."
