Chapter one
"" I wake up early in the morning round the crack of dawn and-"my alarm blares waking me up out of my peaceful sleep it was the first one id had in months." Knock knock are you up Caela" my sister asked stepping into my room with a wrapped gift in her hands it was sea green my favorite color. "No Nichole but you can come in, you too Luke I know you're out there in the hall." I replied as my brother came In after Nichole a sheepish look and small smile on his face. "happy birthday C" Luke replied throwing a wrapped present my way "thanks guys" I said while catching the shiny green present "umm do you mind giving me a few moments to myself?" I asked running my hands through my long silky red curls " sure" Nichole whispered quietly carefully placing the blue gift on the edge of my bed that she had previously had in her hands and silently left the room. As soon as the door clicked shut a sob broke out of my mouth it was supposed to be a good day, it was my birthday after all but the day would forever be marred as the day my parents died in a horrible car accident. That day was the day I kept dreaming of, I still remember it as if it had happened an hour ago. It was raining and I was upset I had just come back from camp my parents were supposed to pick me up from the airport. Instead when I had stepped of the terminal I saw Luke he was seventeen at the time we were just one year apart. "Sorry mom told me to tell you her car broke down and that dad is stuck in a meeting I got stuck picking you up "he grumbled as he picked up my humongous suitcase and placing it carefully in the trunk of his car. "God this can't be happening they were supposed to meet me so that they could take me Laragia's is pizza" I huffed I was so angry. I jumped into Luke's passenger seat he had just gotten a jaguar f-type for his birthday the car I had always wanted and told mom and dad about since I was twelve I thought maybe I would get a car for my birthday this year instead my crappy parents couldn't even show up "there's no place id-"my phone rang " mom" I yelled into the receiver " what the heck happened I can't believe you guys aren't here right now" " I'm sorry honey well be there at the house when you and Luke get home I'm sorry your father had to work and my Volvo broke down" "whatever I can't believe this I'm really pissed off at you guys right now both of you" I hissed my hand gripping my seatbelt Luke had been speeding ever since we left the airport parking lot apparently he had some band practice thing he had to get to after football practice that he was late to. "I know doll but we love you and happy birthday we have to go the rain is getting heavier bye baby" then I heard the dial tone of a disconnected phone call that was the last thing my mom had ever said to me. About an hour after Luke and I had gotten home and my parents still weren't home we started to worry and it seems we had the right to be on the way across new hills bridge my mom lost control of the wheel of her car and ended up driving of the bridge landing in the ravine underneath it, mom was killed instantly and my dad died in the ambulance on its way to the hospital. That was the worst day of my life and one I hadn't stopped dreaming about since, that was until last night.
