"That if you talk enough sense then you lose your mind"

Nyra's POV

_____________

Moving to a new place is hard, but I'm used to it.

Honestly, I'm kinda excited, cause this town is covered and surrounded by woods. We usually move around urban areas.

I actually haven't seen my immediate family in about 3 months or so.

I was in a 'business' trip with my aunt Kate, and now I'm back in my hometown.

I'm going to start my junior year at Beacon Hills with my twin sister Allison.

She is a sophomore but is supposed to be a junior.

I'm a junior because I took very advanced classes in my freshman year, and my teachers offered me to skip grade But, unfortunately, I would've been a senior already but moving around holds you back a bit.

I remember the last time I was here. The only reason I left Beacon Hills was because my friend, who was my music tutor and was like a big sister to me, died when I was in middle school.

I couldn't handle Paige dying or the pain that followed.

As we arrived at our new house I immediately ran to pick out my room and I noticed Allison was right behind me.

I opened the first door and I loved the detailed windows. I just knew this was the room for me. I ran inside with Allison behind me.

"Dibs on this room" I yelled out loud at the same moment Allison tackled me on the bed. My glasses started to fall off my face but I quickly held them in place while bracing the weight of my sister.

"No fair" she pouted. I just smirked back at her and pushed my glasses farther up the bridge of my nose.

"I was here first so..."

She just shot me a fake glare and left to pick her new room.

I just looked around in awe. I had a bay window, a huge walk-in closet, and a restroom.

"NYRA, ALLISON COME HERE" My beautiful redheaded mom yelled.

I quickly ran down the stairs with my sister in tow.

"I'm going to the store to buy some groceries, do both of you want to come?" She grabbed the car keys my dad left on the counter and swung them.

Both Allison and I looked at each other and in unison, said yes.

My mom looked a little creeped out but she just shrugged. She started to make her way to the car with us trailing behind her.

"Mom, can we get some snacks?" I asked.

I was jumping up and down by this point.

I just love eating junk food when I can. I'm not allowed when my dad is in sight.

"Sure, I know you can't survive without your Oreos" She answered with a small smile.

"Yay!" I opened the car door for her so that I could earn a bit of extra points.

"I call Shotgun" Allison ran to the passenger seat. This bitch took advantage of my 'politeness'.

I just fake glared at her and shook my head.

"How could you?" I put my hand over my heart and my face started to portray the betrayal instilled in my heart.

My fellow women decided to laugh as I sluggishly sat in the back seat. I then decided to recline my seat down, so that I could watch the scenery in a comfortable position.

All I could see were light posts until they turned into trees. Then it started to rain and a few strikes of lightning flashed across the sky.

"Where did his rain come from?" I was genuinely curious because this rain came out of nowhere. I checked the weather earlier in case I wanted to go on my morning run tomorrow.

"Clouds, Duh!" Allison answered laughing. She was still in her innocent phase and I didn't want it to end.

I smiled a bit, appreciating my sister a bit more with her innocence.

All of a sudden a figure jumped out of the woods and stood in the middle of the road.

My mom was quick at pushing the breaks, causing Allison to scream. "Crap" I spouted as the seatbelt dug into my collarbone.

The figure just ran off the other side of the road. It looked like a guy I'm not gonna lie.

"What the hell was that?!" Allison breathed out still in shock.

"Whatever it was it's crazy" I scrunched my face up and started to ponder.

Everyone knows a deer would stop because of the lights, but that didn't look like one.

The figure looked human.

They would at least have some instinct or reflex to make a move.

(Next day)

In the morning I immediately went straight to the shower.

After I got out I dried my hair and straightened my hair like I usually do.

Then I quickly changed into a white long-sleeved shirt, black jeans and a red velvet jacket.

I run downstairs and hear my mom and dad talking.

"Good morning, Mom and Dad," I say with a cheeky smile.

I run to the kitchen counter and quickly eat some Cereal we bought last night.

I want to get there before Allison.

Before we went to sleep last night we made a deal that whoever arrives at the school first gets 10 dollars.

I heard loud footsteps running down the stairs and I knew that it was Allison.

I went jogging towards the door and into my black BMW. I slammed on the gas like my life depended on it.

I looked in my rearview mirror and saw Allison far from me.

As I entered the parking lot I got out quickly and waited for Allison.

She must have gotten lost. Oops, I forgot to give her the address like my mom told me to do. I quickly grab my phone and send it to her with a smiley face on the end. I know I'm gonna get it when I get home.

A blue jeep then started to park right next to me, I just stood there standing like an idiot.

The driver got out and he was an extremely cute boy with a buzz cut.

He glanced at me and hurriedly ran to a boy who was on his bike.

I saw from afar that a guy in a Porsche hit the boy with a bike using his car door.

What a douche.

I felt bad for Allison so I just got back in my car and waited for her. While playing games on my phone. There was no way I was going to do this alone.

I heard a knock on my car window and noticed it was Allison.

"Oops, I'm so sorry for sending you the school address so late" I winced, prepared for the attack that was going to come, but surprisingly she just laughed.

"It's okay at least you waited for me" I got out of my car, locked it, and linked our arms before pulling her towards the bench we were told to wait at.

"The principal said to wait at one of these benches," I told her with a small smile.

I'm still excited that Allison will go here with me.

I visited the school for the basketball games when Kate attended and I enjoyed it but what hurts about this place is that this was the last place I saw my closest friend.

A phone rings and I look at Allison as she scurries through her bag.

She looks at the screen and then she shows me that mom was calling.

"Mom, three calls on our first day is a little overdoing it........ everything except a pen uh, omg I did not just forget a pen"

"Okay I got to go, love ya "

I felt kinda bad cause she was in a hurry because of me. So I pulled out my lucky pen. Because how am I supposed to survive without it?

"Here, this is my only one but you can have it" I hand it to her. She just looks at me with relief

"Thanks, but what are u going to use?"

"I'll just ask someone if I can borrow something to write with. We know I got the most courage between the two of us... when it counts" I poked her shoulder and she sent me an annoyed look.

I heard footsteps and who I assume is the principal, approached us with a friendly smile. "Sorry to keep you waiting"

We both then got up and followed him

"So you were saying San Francisco is where you grew up?" He looked at us and I decided to let Allison answer.

"No we lived there for over a year and that's a bit unusual for our family," she responded while we were entering the school.

"Well, hopefully, Beacon Hills will be your last stop for a while" We just smiled at him. I honestly didn't want to say anything. I was bored.

We reached a classroom door and the principal opened it while we trailed behind him.

"Class this is our new students Allison and Nyra Argent, please do your best to make them feel welcome"

I saw Allison sit behind a boy in a buzz cut and I sat in front of a boy with floppy hair.

The boy behind me tapped my shoulder. When I turned around I saw that he was giving me a pen.

"Thank you" I looked at him and smiled.

When I turned back around I was just thinking about how he knew I needed a pen.
