Unforeseen Secrets - Chapter 1
Evie's family is descended from angels. In most ways she's like every other teen except for one thing that makes her the topic of books and movies, she's a half angel. And now she has a guardian angel to protect her but what happens when she begins to fall for him?
It was nine in the night, tomorrow I would be going back to school. I couldn't believe summer vacation had gone by so fast. So many things have changed since my mom died. Seven years ago, when I was five my mom was killed in the woods by a supposed Animal attack but that's not what really happened and only few people knew the truth.
My moms family is descended by angels but because she married my dad who's human, their children, me and my younger sister Haley were born half angels. We're weaker and have less power's than angels but we're still not completely human.
When my mom, Alisa Porter died my dad left me and Haley with my Aunt Jaime from my mom's side of the family then he left. The only contact I've had with him since are a few birthday cards and some money sent once in a while.
That was my weird life that you would only expect to hear about in books and movies. With so many secrets and mysteries. Sometimes I wished I would have been born normal. I sat up on my bed which I had been laying down on, helplessly trying to fall asleep.
There was a light breeze coming in through my open window. My room was on the second story as was Haley's, Aunt Jamie's and her husband, and her 1 year old daughter. I got off the bed and quietly walked towards my window and looked out at the night sky.
When I was younger I would climb out my window and step onto the tree to the side of the window and climb down. Then I would sit down against the tree and look at the stars. I would count them until I grew tired and climbed back up.
I hadn't done it in a while but I was restless so I propped myself up on the window sill and stepped onto the tree, but as I started to climb down my foot slipped on a tree branch. I tried to grab on to one of the branches but my hands caught on nothing but the cold night air. I couldn't even scream all I could do was think of falling on the hard dirt grass. The wind smothered me making it impossible to breathe. My skin stung from being scraped against the trunk and branches of the tree.
Just as I thought I would hit the floor someone caught me in their arms. I knew it was a guy, I could feel his muscles pressed against my chest. A small part of me felt like screaming and pushing away but it felt safe being in his arms. When he finally let go of me I looked up to see who he was but there was no one. A shiver ran through me and I looked around again but still saw no one. As quietly and quickly as possible I opened the front door and ran upstairs to my bedroom. I closed the door behind me and curled up on my bed trying to forget what had happened.
This was one of the times when I wished I would be taught how to use my powers. If I knew how to use them I wouldn't have to climb down that tree and risk falling, I could just fly down. My heart was still pounding from what had happened. Who had that guy or man who caught me been? I was even starting to think I might have imagined it.
I woke up to my stupid alarm clock ringing like crazy. I forced my eyes open and hit the snooze button of the alarm clock. I kicked the covers off me and lazily got out of bed. A second later Aunt Jaime barged in holding Melody, my one year old niece and also her daughter.
"Evie, can you take care of Melody while I run down to the store to buy some cereal, Daryl's at work and Haley's still asleep."
"Of course I'll take care of my adorable little niece, come with auntie sweetie." I said holding my hands so Aunt Jaime could put her in my arms.
"Here you go." She placed her in my arms and I held her close to me.
"I'll be back before your finished getting ready, have Haley take care of her while your taking a shower."
"Okay, don't worry we'll take care of her, just go."
"Okay, okay." She quickly left the room and soon after I heard the front door close.
