Chapter 2
      "Lilah. Lilah. Lilah baby, we're here."Janice says as she shakes lilah awake.
      "What? Where are we?" She questionaly looks around the ouside window with droopy eyes.
      "We're here in North Carolina."
      "Oh..." Lilah says to tired to be mad.
     Lilah walks inside passing her dad that said hello. She ignored him and went and put her stuff down.
      "Mom where is my bed room?" She asked because she wanted to get away from them. They did betray her, by moving.
      "Oh we gave you the biggest room because we thought it would make you a little more happy about being here" her mom yelled from outside the door carrying a lamp in.
      "It's upstairs, we put your name on your door with tape. You can take it down tomorrow if you want."
      Lilah just rolled her eyes as she picked up her backpack and her phone and stomp upstairs with additude. She walked into her bedroom looking sad until she saw the painting on the wall. It was sky blue with a tree filled with real letters that were tacked on the wall and were forgotten. She looks up and amazement flowed all over her face. The ceiling was black but one part of her knew it was a chalk board. She found a box of new chalk in the corner of the room, she picked it up took the green one out and looked around for something to climb. She walked over to her dresser, cleared it off and climb on top of it. She was about to draw something on it when the doorbell rung.
         "Lilah honey can you get that please were trying to fix the back door."
"Yeah I'll be right down"
      She jumped down from her dresser and ran downstairs. She opened the door to a really cute boy. He had short hair that was jelled up. He was tall and had really dreamy eyes. Plus he had really cool clothes on.
      "Hi my name is Brookston. But you call me Brooks. My mom wanted me to give these to you, because your new and all."
      All of a sudden you have brownies in your hands. He smiles and pulls his hand throughout his hair.
      "Oh silly me. What your name"
      "Lilian. But everyone calls me lilah."
      "Im guessing you'll be going to j.j.h." he asks while smiling.
      "Umm I don't think so. I'm going to Jacks Jr high."
       He chuckles before he says "That's what j.j.h. means."
       "Oh..." she feels dumb but giggles.
        "So maybe tomorrow we can sit on the bus together. Is that ok?"
         "Yeah totally your the only person I know around here."
         "Alright then I'll see you tomorrow. Oh and hey I'll give you my number tomorrow too so if your in trouble I'll come and help ok?"
      "Ok!" She smiles with no hesitation.
       "Alright I'm going to go bye"
      "Bye" she waves.
      About two hours later Lilah finds herself drawing all over her chalkboard. She finishes when she looks at the clock and sees it's ten thirty at night. She walks downstairs with her pillow and blanket in her hand. Because she has no bed right now she lays on the couch and instantly she falls into her dreams.
