Chapter 2 - Family

As Mikaela walked downstairs from her room to the living room, she could already hear Dominique's unnaturally loud voice talking into her cell phone. Well, technically she was screaming more than talking.

"Well you can tell all those talk show hosts that I said NO TO ALL OF THEM. They've all got a serious case of the Gram-Hands!"

Mikaela rolled her eyes. That was the 3rd talk show she rejected this month. It boggled her mind on how people were still interested in this old, washed up pop-star.

Dominique had a huge hit song in the 80's. It topped all the billboards and was the #1 Hit song out there. There probably wasn't a single person out there that hasn't heard her song, and it gave Dominique the things she wanted most in life. Money, fame, Money, and MONEY. The only thing was that was her ONLY hit song. She was considered a one-hit wonder, but she still acted like everybody still knew and liked her.

Dominique took a second to see who was walking down the stairs even though she was in the middle of a conversation. When she saw it was only Mikaela, she just gave her a look that said, "It's about time you got down here! Now make breakfast!."

Mikaela resisted the urge to roll her eyes. She just gave an obedient nod and walked into the kitchen. As she ignited the stove and collected the eggs and bacon, her "sisters" walked into the kitchen talking to each other via-phone even though they were right next to each other. This time, Mikaela didn't even bother to resist the urge to roll her eyes.

Mikaela's sisters aren't really her sisters (thank god for that she would say). They were just Dominique's daughter's who were just as spoiled and bratty as she was. Their names were Morgan and Ashley, and they were the most annoying 16-year-old fraternal twins ever.

Morgan was your typical image of a popular high school girl. She had pin-straight, light brown hair and green eyes that looked like they had the power to look into your soul. She was small in height, much like Mikaela, but that was probably the only thing they had in common. Morgan was mean, nasty and basically the definition of a bitch.

Ashley... was stupid, and there's really no other word for it. The most skillful thing she knew how to do was unlocking the front door, but it still took her about 5 tries to put the key in the slot the right way. Like her sister, she had pin-straight, light brown hair, but her eyes were blue and she was a lot taller. She was just as popular in school as her sister, and they ruled the halls together.

"OMG Morgan did you hear that Jennie Kowalski got her hair cut?"

"Ugh tell me something I don't know!"

As Mikaela flipped the bacon over in the pan, she muttered under her breath, 'It would be easier to tell her what she doesn't know.'

The second those few words left Mikaela's mouth, Morgan and Ashley hung up with each other on their cell phones and turned their heads to her, finally acknowledging her presence. If looks could kill, she would probably be dead, but there was no way she was going to let them get that kind of satisfaction.

"What. Did. You. Say?" Morgan said slowly so she would sound more intimidating. But Mikaela wasn't phased.

"I think you heard what I said, but you two are just too stupid to realize," Mikaela spat back sharply. She hated their insults. Everyone would. She was used to them having receiving them for about two years now since her mom died, but some of them still stung really badly.

Morgan rose off of her chair in the dining room quickly followed by Ashley. She took small but loud steps to the kitchen once again trying to be intimidating, but failing immensely. Mikaela didn't even need to look up from putting the recently finished eggs and bacon on the plate to know that Ashley and Morgan were coming. She could already hear the annoying clack of Morgan's really tall high-heels. *clack* *clack* *clack* one after another.

After what felt like an eternity, Mikaela shifted her eyesight from the plate filled with food to the direction the twins were coming from, only to find that Morgan was standing directly right in front of her. Mikaela was startled to see her so close to her face, but Morgan, mistaking Mikaela's startled jerk for fear, smirked her evil smirk that Mikaela has come to know so well.

"Oh I heard what you said you little freak show. I just wanted to see you say it to my face."

They did this often, her and Morgan. They would throw insults, names at each other until one of them couldn't think of anything else to say, and Mikaela often won. She would probably have these types of conversations with Ashley too, but she was too dumb to think of anything clever to say.

"Okay, fine. You. Are. Stupid. You and your sister. Do you need me to say it slower so your tiny brain can comprehend it?" Mikaela said with her own signature smirk on her face.

Morgan's eyebrow twitched. "Well at least I don't dress like a whore," she said disdainfully.

Mikaela slightly looked down at her outfit. She was wearing her favorite dark, blue ripped jeans and a black, loose fitting shirt that hung off her shoulder that said SWAG on it in big letters. She was wearing a beanie on her head that had a neon green stripe around it and neon green and black Nikes. Tomboy? Yes. Whore? Uh... no.

"Oh I'm the whore?" Mikaela said back to her. "I'm not the one whose wearing the skimpy high-heels, a tank top that shows WAY too much cleavage, and a short skirt that you can't bend over in."

Morgan was outraged. Steam could have been coming out of her ears if she was a cartoon. "Well at least I'm not a stupid VIRUS."

Mikaela's face went up in shock. She took a step back and grasped on to the kitchen counter to prevent from falling. She clenched her fist hard and it took all the will power she had not to cry. 'How dare she.' She thought to herself, 'She went too far this time.'

Morgan once again gave out her signature smirk this time with arrogance knowing that she won this round. She knew she hit a nerve when she called her the nickname that she gave her 2 years ago that she hated more than anything. It was rare for her to get the last word in their arguments. So without giving Mikaela the chance to say anything else, she spun around, her hair flowing over her shoulder and walked back to her chair in the dining room with Ashley following close by.

Recovering from the shock and pain of that one word, Mikaela followed with the plate of food, put it on the table and left the dining room no longer wanting to eat. Instead she grabbed her school books, her bag, and her skateboard and headed to the front door.

She passed Dominique who was still on her phone, and she barely looked up as to wonder what she was doing. Mikaela reached the front door and left the house, slamming the door as she left. She put her skateboard down on the concrete floor, stepped on it and speedily rushed her way to school, crying the entire way there, all because of that one stupid word that she despised more than anything in the world.

Aww. Poor Mikaela :(

So what d'ya think? Was it better than the first chapter? Was it good in general? Please leave a review to let me know what I'm doing wrong or what I'm doing right. I'd really like to hear from everyone reading my story, and I hope everyone is enjoying it. Like I said before in the first chapter, the first couple of chapters are probably gunna be just fillers so the main plot won't kick in until a while :(

But don't worry! The next chapter will mention the new Dance Central competition coming up and maybe a mention of everybody's favorite Korean-Asian dancer in Hi-Def ;)

Peace, Love, and Glitches ;)
