A/N: Um sorry for the wait, but I have another story, history day, school, violin, soccer and a few other things that I would rather not share details about. Notice the mood swings, it isn't all his fault. And um oh dang I forgot.

"Forgive my insanity. I think it is temporary." –Bindy Mackenzie

I woke up to a bright sunny day. I sighed; that wasn't my mood, but at least I knew some people would be gone today. Well, they both countered each other, so I think I will be living for another day.

I started getting dressed, just throwing on whatever. I barely ever looked at what I was wearing because it was all plain, and I no matter what I threw on I wouldn't look like a complete ass.

I was opening the door to go to the bathroom when Eleanor passed by. That was the one thing I never got. Why would any parent allow a kid to name someone Eleanor Elaine? But my parents did and I am afraid that I forever scarred her. She on the other hand, thinks it is an interesting name.

"You better hurry up because I have to drive you to school today." She was still at the middle school, but she would be at the high school next year.

"Eric, calm down, and breathe. You know it only take me like ten seconds to get ready." It was true; she was very fast and efficient about everything.

"I know but if you decide to putts we'll be late." I took her arm and looked at her drawn on watch for exaggeration.

Ellie was truly one of a kind. She was one of the only true good things in this world, and one of the very few people that could make me smile for real. I wondered where I would be without her. I knew I would be dead, or at the very least soulless.

"Good morning Eric."

"Morning mother." She used to be such a good mom. It is sad to known that something happened to her.

"What would you like to eat?"

"I'll get it myself." I knew I was rude, but I had to wonder when she would stop treating me like a baby. I also had to wonder when I would stop giving into my baby tendencies.

"Fine, but please eat good; I can't remember the last time I saw you eat." She did have a point but she couldn't win. Wait, isn't that a baby tendency? Damnit, I guess all I can do is roll my eyes, so roll my eyes I did.

I was looking for something to eat when Ellie came out in a superstar pose.

"Blim blam; Mr. Heap is a playa!"

"Ellie you really have to stop watching, reading and listening to things. Every time you do you end up with some crazy, new catch phrase."

"Yah, but that's why I am so cool." She said as she walked over to the cupboard that held her favorite cereal and grabbed a handful.

"Very true." She really did have me there.

"That would be my middle name or my middle name isn't very true." I rolled my eyes for the second time in a half hour; that must be a new record.

"Are you ready to go?"

"Yep, just let me grab my coat and I'll meet you out there."

I went out to my car (which was pretty nice for Forks) and turned the key in the admission. While I was out there I realized that Ellie had no need for a coat today because not only was it not raining, but it was a nice spring day. I hoped this wasn't one of those days when she dressed up as a certain character (Ellie plans to be an actress when she is older) because the last time she did she came out in full cow uniform, utters and everything. I'm not so sure how that went over with her teachers, but she came home happy.

Sure enough, out came Ellie in an Eskimo outfit. She had it wrapped around her as if it was freezing with her dark black braids sticking out. The only thing she needed was a tan.

"Do you like it?" She asked as she hopped into the car."

"It's amazingly almost perfect."

"I know it needs something but I can't figure it out."

"You need darker skin." She snapped her fingers in realization at that.

"Of course! Goodness, why couldn't I think of that? Geesh Eric, what would I be without you?"

"An Eskimo without a clue."

"See! You did it again."

"Wow this must be the one day a year my brain actually works."

"No that was last Wednesday."

"Oh yeah." I remembered last Wednesday when I took the SAT's. I swear to god nobody had a better sister than I did. She studied every second she could with me. I think she might have been more ready for the tests than I was.

We continued our playful banter all the way to the middle school which was only five minutes away from the high school.

"Have a good day triple E." Eleanor Elaine Eskimo, say that ten times fast.

"Same to you single E." Eric sounds like Garrett when you say it ten times fast.

I pulled out of one parking lot to go to the other. Sure enough, wow I say that a lot. Well anyways, sure enough, the silver Volvo was missing. There was however, a very old, red, Chevy truck. I blanched, today just didn't send off good vibrations for me even though luck was on my sides.

I was right. I had to sit next to Katie again. Every time I tried to break up with her she made it unbelievably impossible. Where girls learn this stuff, I do not know.

After lunch I had two tests which I am pretty sure I failed, then I almost forgot to pick up Ellie, which would have gone horribly if I did. Then of course Ellie had to call Katie over to help her with "some things" so I couldn't escape her there either. My night was spent hiding in various places around the house trying to get my homework done.

When Katie finally went home Ellie cornered me and gave me a huge "talkin' to about not blowing off your girlfriend." I assured her I would talk to Katie tomorrow at school. She finally gave up and went to bed. I did the same wondering what I would be doing to do tomorrow.

A/N: Like I said before sorry this is really late. The next chapter (or rather five) is (are all) half written. The plot for the- well I'll tell you next chapter! Haha! Oh and Michelle I still used your name! I went there girlfriend snap, snap, snap! Anyways I would have to go with…
