Rowan sighed as she watched the street lights flicker as they drove past, the dark shadows of the night swallowing up what was behind them. She closed her eyes trying to concentrate on the music that was being pumped into her ears by her shabby headphones. She gripped her phone tight as the car jolted forward, this not being the first time, she didn't bother to even look up. She felt the car pull to a stop and glanced up only long enough to watch her father climb out of the car. Sighing she looked back at her phone and checked for any messages, knowing there would be none. Apparently her sigh had let her mother know, that there was still an occupant of the car that was still awake.
"You talk to your friends to day babe?" she faintly heard this and grumbled as she yanked her left headphone out of her ear..
"What?" her voice dripped with bitterness as she looked up at her mother. Earning a sigh from the older woman who shifted in her seat to get a better look at her only daughter.
"I asked if Karla or Donna or one of your other friends had talked to you since last time." Rowan looked down at her hands before folding her arms over her chest.
"Mom, it's 2 in the morning back home, why would they be up?"
Grabbing her headphone she stuffed it back in her ear and turned her gaze back out the window. Minutes later she felt a gust of cold air as the driver side door opened and her father slid back into the seat. She turned her gaze to him and watched him, according to most, she was her father's daughter through and through, from her dark brown hair to her tan complexion. As most people said, she was nothing like her pale and princess like mother. Unlike her, her mother was light in skin tone with sapphire blue eyes. But unlike both parents and her two younger siblings, she had entrancing eyes. Yes blue, but a defining electric blue that shinned slightly in the dark.
Rowan glanced away from her parents and to her left to where her 10 year old twin brothers were sprawled out in their seats. The two boys were a perfect mix of their mother and father, both boys gained their mother's hair but with a slightly lighter tone of skin then their father. Their eyes well each boy had a different pair then the other, Fletcher with his others blue eyes and Lawson with his father's brown.
Sighing once more she shifted her pillow back against the window and closed her eyes letting her music wash over her, softly humming she drifted off to sleep, hoping when she woke this was all just a bad dream.
….
She was woken by a strong pain in her neck and sudden wetness on her jeans. Jerking awake she slammed forward looking down at her now soaked pants. Growling softly she jerked her head to the left and glared at the culprit. She saw a baby faced Lawson with a now half empty bottle of water. He smiled sheepishly and batted his eyes trying to weasel his way out of being pummeled by his older sister.
"Damnit Law'!" She screamed causing her mother to jerk awake and look over her shoulder to the back seat.
"Rowan Phoenix Alexandra Grace! Watch your language!" Her mother shouted, Rowan jerked her head to look at her mother, and rolled her eyes.
"Like you haven't said worse momma." Her southern accent now dripping with attitude. As she closed her mouth she came to regret the words she had spoken, her father who in most circumstances was a calm collected man, was know looking at her as if she had committed all 7 deadly sins.
"Sorry momma, I didn't mean it." With a nod from her father as he turned back around her mother smiled slightly and nodded now letting her gaze look for the problem that had caused the outburst. Frowning when she saw both her boys looking desperately around.
"What did ya'll lose now, and what did you do to your poor sister?"
"We're sorry momma." they said simultaneously. "Laws' spilled some of the water on 'er when the car jerked." Frowning she looked over at Rowan who was patting her pants dry, looking slightly less upset as she did previously.
"Don't worry hun, your daddy said we would be to the new house in just a few minutes." with this last statement she earned an irritated sigh from the girl. Rowan crossed her arms again and rolled her neck trying to get the kink out. Rowan then gazed out the window wincing as her eyes came into direct contact with bright sunshine. As she gazed out the window they passed the high school. Hearing her mother's excitement she rolled her eyes but kept her gaze locked as they drove passed. Her eyes caught on a green motor bike. As they stopped at the light she watched as the boy slide his helmet off. He was rather cute in the lost boy sorta way. She watched as he went still and suddenly turned his gaze over his shoulder. Her eyes went wide as he did, to her it felt like he was looking right at her. She squared her shoulders and turned back around straight in her seat.
"I want to go home." She muttered.
