This Is Not Where We Belong- Chapter 1
Hayley's POV
We all sat in a tiny motel lobby while Elliot checked us in. We were somewhere in Texas, that's all I knew. We were playing go fish on a wobbly old table. Tinsley sat on Jeremy's lap. Elliot came back over then.
"Room 314." he grumbled.
"What's your problem?" asked Tinsley.
"I'm fucking tired! Let's go." he grabbed his suitcase and was gone. See, Josh, Tinsley, Jeremy, Elliot, and our cat Mocha all were from some special world-dimension type thing. I didn't really understand it, all I knew was that they could do stuff like run super super fast, and normal 'super-human' things. But everyone had one special power. Tinsley could never be killed in battle. Josh had like, a radar in his head. Jeremy could lie and never be found out. As in, he could go up to some random mortal (including me) and say the sky was falling, and they had to believe it. Elliot could sense things from far away, and see scenes in is head of whatever was happening in that moment somewhere. And Mocha could go invisible. Not very useful though, considering he was a cat. I blinked and everyone was gone except Josh. He held my hand and walked at a normal pace with me. Josh and I were kind of best friends, and kind of boyfriend and girlfriend. We entered the room to see everything already unpacked, and Elliot setting up a Nintendo Wii.
"Where'd that come from?" I asked. Tinsley pointed to Jeremy. I rolled my eyes. He was always stealing stuff.
"How long are we staying here?" Jeremy asked.
"Just a day. We can't be here long; Josh says the Clouds are coming." Elliot replied, stifling a yawn. Jeremy nodded.
"Ell, if you're so damn tired than go to bed." Josh muttered. In a flash the Wii was off and Elliot laying on his sleeping bag.
"Who's taking what bed?" Asked Tinsley.
"Me and Hayley'll take the right, you and Jerms the left." Josh responded, folding down the blankets. We all got into bed and the lights went out. I was almost asleep when Josh started talking to me.
"I wonder what happened to Kasey?" he asked. Kasey was a boy who used to travel with us, but left. I shrugged.
"Josh, I'm tired. Go to sleep." I mumbled. My dreams that night were filled with the horrible Clouds, more witch creatures. 5 years ago I wouldn't have believed any of this. I had been 11 at the time. My family had moved to a depressig Florida swamp from Meridan, Mississippi. I went exploring one day a few months after we got there. That day I met Josh and Jeremy. I also met their mother, who was a witch. Literally. She swore to kill us all. Well, that's kind o already her job. Apparently witches are trained at a young age to kill any of Josh's kind. But their mother, who had once been very kind and beautiful, had taken them in. Now she was more evil than ever. I was 16, Jeremy and Josh were 19, Tinsley was 18, and Elliot was 21. We were always on the move from witches.
Tinsley's POV
"Sweetie, get up. We need to leave." Jeremy whispered, shaking me gently. I rubbed my eyes and looked at the clock. 3:57. I got out of bed and ran around, gathering my things. The only one still asleep was Hayley. We always woke her up last because, honestly, she never really helped us get ready or anything. She tried, but it's kind of hard to match us when you're mortal. Josh woke her up and carried her on his back. We snuck downstairs and out the front entrance easily. The boy at the counter was too busy reading Playboy to notice. We got into our black minivan and looked at the map.
"Where to?" asked Josh. The boys looked at that while I sat with Hayley.
"So, how are things between you and Josh? Are you..." I let my voice trail off, knowing she knew what my question would be.
"We're more going out now than friends." she whispered. I gave her a thumbs up.
"How many babies on the way this time?" I asked. Hayley laughed. It was our joke because the first time her and Josh had had sex, we thought she was pregnant. Hayley fell back asleep with her head on my shoulder. I looked out the window at the passing stars and thought about how much I could really use a wish right now.
Haha notice how I kinda put the lyrics from Airplaines in?? I'm so cheesy haha. Feedback is always nice!! Comments are goinggg wayyyyyyyy down and that makes me sad :( oh well I'll keep writing even if you don't read it!!! Haha ~~~ Cassie (:
