Chapter 1: What to do today?
Marie's POV
The day was hot for the early September month, and it seemed that the coolness of fall would never come. I got up slowly not wanting to face another long hot humid day like the ones that had past by so slowly the past few weeks. As I got up I looked out the window that hung above my bed. It was as I had dreaded, another excusiatingly hot day.
I groaned to myself and slowly made my way to my closet. It was another day for tank tops and shorts, so I picked out a white tank with tan shorts not wanting to attempt a dark color in the already hot day. I walked into my bathroom to change and brush my teeth and all the other necessities needed to make it through the miserible day ahead.
Even though I had the gift of having werewolf vision when I was in my wolf form I still needed contacts when I was in my human form. I had always wondered why the life changing experience of being a werewolf had only changed the good things in my life and not the bad. For example since I couldn't tell anyone except my fellow werewolfs/sisters about my transformation I was forced to lose contact with all my previous friends. But it couldn't do me any favors like fix my vision. "What a wrip off!" But I didn't mind that much, I had to make sacrifices for being what I was and I could except that.
I left the bathroom and walked downstairs as quietly as was possible, which was quite easy with my new talents. I didn't want to wake up my sisters when they needed their sleep so badly. Being werewolves, and still having to go to school, and work during the day and then do our werewolf duties at night, didn't leave alot of time for sleeping. But, as I walked down the stairs and down the hallway I could hear that the TV was on. I turned the corner and found my sisters Renae, Lee, and Maddy laying all over the living room.
"Whoa! Didn't expect to see you all up this early." I said almost laughing. "Well, It wasn't by choice!" Renae said glaring at Lee and Maddy. "Hey I couldn't sleep. Wouldn't you have done the same thing Marie?" Lee asked me while shrugging and smiling. "Probably!" I said laughing. "And then I wasn't about to let you have the pleasure of sleeping when I couldn't. Lee woke me up and wouldn't let me go back to sleep!" said Maddy with a small grin then glaring at Lee. "What, I have alot of energy?!" Lee said with a large grin. "Ok, what are you guys planning on doing today?" I asked curiously. "I don't know but I have to get out of this house before I just explode!" Lee said. "No! Not in the house! Change outside!" Renae said with a sarcatic voice of fear. "You know what I mean! Jeeez I can't even use sarcasm any more." Lee said rolling her eyes. "Ok hows about we eat breakfast before we do any exploding." said Maddy standing up. "I agree!" I said following her to the kitchen.
We all slowly made our way to the white kitchen. I turned to the left to find the pancake mix in the pantry while Maddy turned left toward the fridge to retrieve the eggs and bread. Renae went to the wooden cupboard next to the fridge to get plates and below the cupboard are the silverwear. Lee went out the front door to get the mail while we started making breakfast. We all ate in silence, I figured it was from the lack of sleep. After we had finished and cleaned up our mess Lee suggested "Why don't we go down town to the festival is today isn't it?" "Yeah that could be fun!" I said. "Yeah I've been craving a fried dough." added Renae. "Lets go!" said Maddy heading for the door.
We all walked out the door to our newly mowed front lawn. There were trees hiding the house from the road on all sides, which was good when we needed to change fast. I looked around to see the flower beds that Lee had planted over the summer and attended to the rest of the summer and right up till now. "Why have flower beds? The flowers just die anyway." I had asked when she told me about her project. She had answered "Because they are pretty! And they only die when you touch them so stay far away from them!" Lee and I are the closest among the rest of the family. We have been alone since our parents had died in an accident about two years ago , but we had each other and we all contributed to keep ourselves together physically and mentally. Renae had the toughest time with their death, she became more reserved and quiet about anything she was feeling. Maddy, Lee, and I had a hard time also, but things went somewhat normal personality wise then we were before. Maddy is more quiet but if the time is right she loves to let loose. Lee is the loud mouth, goofy, and energized one of the group. And I love to have a good time, be goofy with Lee, and love things to go my way, but don't all girls?
I got into our car and put the key in the ignition. The car roared to life and then started to quietly purr as I put it into gear. "UHG! Why did you two insist on getting this car?" Renae asked with irritation in her voice. "Yeah, and this color is awful!" added Maddy. We had recently purchased a new car after a werewolf "incident" occurred about a month ago. And get this we purchased a new PINK HUMMER! Is that not the coolest, or so Lee and I thought. "Because it's the perfect car!" I said with a huge grin. "Well next time we get to choose the car!" said Maddy frustrated.
We drove down the road in silence until Lee, my co-pilot turned on the radio. Immediately we all burst into song as the song "Irreplaceable," by Beyonce came on. "To the left, to the left..." "You must not know 'bout me, you must not know 'bout me..." "Don't you ever for a second get to thinking your irreplaceable..." As the song ended I exploded with laughter. "What's so funny?" asked Lee wanting to be in on the joke. "Nothing it's just that I haven't seen that much enthusiasm from Renae in a long time" I whispered to Lee. "Secrets don't make friends!" Renae said. "But friends make secrets. " Lee laughed back. "What? I wanna know!" Maddy said eagerly. "I was just saying how much I wanted to go to Washington this Spring." I lied. "That's a great idea!" Maddy said as we pulled into the pharmacy parking lot. "I'm not going! You wouldn't catch me dead that far from home." "Ahh come on Renae." Lee said punching her playfully on the arm as we got out of the car and started to walk around the pharmacy to Main Street.
"Lets go to the food section next to school first. I'm starved!" said Renae with a small grin . "Sure, then we can go across the street to the crafts and clothes." Lee said with great enthusiasm. We started our long walk toward the school. It was about 2 blocks, but in the crowds it seemed like it took an eternity to get there. "Hey Lee!" I whispered "Renae is having a good day today first the singing and now the smiling! Whats the world coming to?" I said to quietly for anyone but Lee to hear. "Yeah, I hope it lasts for a while. Its so hard watching her go through this and none of us can do anything about it."she answered. Then a mob of people crowded towards us to get good spots for the dunking booth. I made it to the food venders after everyone else, and I found them at a long picnic table with whom they shared with a couple and their small daughter. My sisters had saved a seat for me between the couple and Lee. We each chose which vender to go to before we actually got our food so we could share the new items that had recently been put on the menu since last year. As we got back to the table we all investigated what each other had gotten and of coarse had to try everything. But just then something touched my shoulder.
