She was fiercely independent, brilliant, beautiful, and brave. Her name is Elena Jade Davis, and this is her story.
Life in the Davis household is exceptionally hectic. My parents Trisha and Henry, older sister twins Brooke and Erin, my twin brother Alec, my brother Montgomery, my younger brother and sister twins Jeremy and Kelsea. Then there are the youngest three of the family, Layla, Lucas, and Lincoln and me. My name is Elena.
"Waking up to the feeling of three tiny humans jumping on top of me is not the greatest feeling in the world. But it's much better than Alec or Monty tickling me awake. I prefer my baby siblings, sissy, wake up. The three of them scream in my ears." I'm up. I tell them while throwing the covers off me. "Hey Lucas Lincoln, how about you both wake up Monty and Alec?" "Okay, Lenny, they both answer in their cute voices while shrugging their shoulders." Want to help me choose my outfit?" "Sure, sissy," my sister Layla replies while going over to my closet. How about this? Layla asks me while holding out a pair of light blue denim shorts distressed with a flowy casual black tank. An olive green cardigan plus my black Havaiana flip-flops. "Looks great princess, wait here while I shower and get dressed, then we will get you ready, okay?" "Got it, Lenny," Layla answers.
Once heading into Monty, Alec and I's bathroom. I lock both doors, set my clothes on the counter, and brush my teeth. I start the shower and hop in once in the shower. I use my shampoo and conditioner, summer's Eve wash, shave my legs, and wash my body. I turn the water off, wrap my hair and body into towels, and climb out.
I grab my lotion in the scent of warm sugar vanilla and rub it into my legs, stomach, arms, shoulders, and neck. Once finished, I put my black lacy bra and underwear from Victoria Secret on my clothes. I go underneath my bathroom sink and grab theBlow dryer and straightener. I ask Siri to play my morning playlist. The first song to come on is Taylor Swift's Cruel Summer, which I sing along to while blow-drying, then straightening my hair. After I finish, I place my hair tools back underneath the sink and start my make up, which only consists of my brows and mascara. I place everything back and walk out to see Layla sitting on my bed, and I pick her up and carry her. To her room to choose her outfit, which consists of black shorts and a Nike light pink tank top with her bright pink converse. Then I have her sit on her desk stool to French braid her hair.
Once finished, we head downstairs with our school bags and my volleyball duffle to eat breakfast once we get into the kitchen. We say good morning to mom then I start making everyone's lunches, since I forgot to do it last night. While waiting for the boys and Kelsea to come down, Layla and I helped mom set up the table. Put everyone's lunches into their bags and place them by the front door. Finally, we hear stomping coming down the stairs. Then we see Monty, Alec, Lucas, and Lincoln enter the kitchen and take their places at the table. Once Jeremy and Kelsea have come down and taken their seats at the table, mom finally tells us we can start eating breakfast. I helped Layla make her plate before mine. Once done, I start talking to Monty and Alec. "Hey, you both have baseball practice after school today, right?" "Yeah, why?" They ask simultaneously. "How about dinner at Aunt Karen's after?" Sure, we're down, we'll ask the others at practice today if they want to join. And I'll ask Bekah, Hannah, and Jess." Monty Alec and I stand up head to the sink and rinse our plates. "Layla, Lucas, Lincoln, let's go, we got to head to your school first." Then we can go to school.
We mention to them from the front door. "Coming sissy coming bubba's," they reply. While running towards us to get their bags while Alec holds the door for once, we have them buckled in the back, and Alec is in between. Lucas and Lincoln with Monty in the passenger seat, and me slowly driving back out of the driveway and head to their school first. While driving, Lucas asks me to play shake it off by Taylor dropping off the youngest three at school, I pull into the high school between Hannah and Bryce's cars. "Hey there they are, Bryce yells with his arm around Chloe's shoulder" Finally, you guys get here, we've been waiting for over 30 mins. Geez, sorry, Bryce, we had to drop Layla, Lucas, and Lincoln off at school.
"Let's get to first period before you both start your daily morning argument, Alec." Cuts in while slinging his arms around Scott and I's shoulders. Once in Mr. Saltzman's history class, I take my seat between Monty and Scotty and wait for class to begin. Alright, class, Mr. Saltzman announces we have a lovely pop quiz today, which in turn makes us groan with annoyance. Monty and Scotty tap me on the shoulder,
"We can copy off you right." Yeah, it's okay," I reply when the pop quiz is over. The bell rings, and we head to our lockers to switch out our books for the next period. Walking to 2nd period English with Alex and Justin, I hear the chants of the student body, I look at Alec, then Justin, and. We all start running, knowing that with Monty's temper, he's the one doing the fighting. Pushing through the crowd of our fellow students, we realize the two doing the fight are Monty and the new kid Luke Parker, with Justin holding Monty back. Alec holding Luke back, I start to get in between them. While Luke is struggling in Alec's grip, he finally gets loose to punch Monty, then everything goes black.
While Alec was driving, I snuggled into Monty's side in the back seat, and fell asleep on our way home. Once home, I wake up slightly. While Monty is carrying me to my room, he tells me to go back to sleep, which I do end up falling back to sleep. A few hours later, I wake up to shouts coming from downstairs. I hear Bryce's voice and realize all our friends must be over for the Chargers vs. Cowboys game tonight. Changing into my cheerleading sweatpants and a football sweatshirt I stole from Bryce, I walk downstairs to head to the kitchen and get an ice pack that I place on my eye. While walking to the living and sitting on Jeff's lap, "hey there, she is how was your nap. Sleeping beauty," Jeff asks me, "Fine, I reply my head and eye are killing me. "Well, that's a given since you were knocked out by an asshole," Bryce says, Shut up Bryce, I'm not in the mood, I respond while standing up as I am heading back upstairs to sleep. I hear Bryce respond when aren't you in a bad mood. As I hear this, I flip him off and hear him burst out laughing once I got to the stairs landing
Once upstairs and in my bed, I fall back to sleep after taking some Tylenol.
