Splashes could barely be heard over the loud pitter patter of rain as a pale girl with ash brown hair that went just past her shoulders ran down the street. She was soaking wet but she couldn’t stop, she had to be as far as she could from him right now. The girls name was Echo Lavelle and she was trying to get away from her stubborn, arrogant, and selfish twin Raven Lavelle. She wasn’t going anywhere in particular just running as far and fast as she could. She stopped under a street light panting, trying to catch her breath. Echo new she would have to go home soon or she’d catch a cold but she had gotten into another fight with Raven. He had said he hated her and wished she never come back when she ran out the door. It was now that Echo decided to look around her to see where she was. She was standing in the middle of a foreign street lined with unfamiliar houses; it was raining harder than it had when she left the house. She sighed and turned around hoping she could retrace her tracks and eventually get back home and take a shower before going to bed. When Echo finally got home it was around 1:30 am. She looked up at the small house. It was white and gray-blue with long windows on the left side of the door and a wood garage on the right, a rock path with a garden by the driveway and a small yard area on the left. She walked up to the door and unlocked it thankful for the warmth that surrounded her as she walked in. All the lights were off so she assumed that raven had already gone to bed. Echo took a shower and was getting ready to climb into bed when she heard a light knock at her door. She opened it to find Raven standing there with his almost shoulder length ash brown hair cover his green eyes that matched hers almost exactly. He just stood there awkwardly for a moment before he sighed and looked at her, he was five or six inches taller than her so he had to ok down somewhat then finally started talking. “I’m sorry for yelling at you,” Raven mumbled and looked way from her stare as he continued “ I know it wasn’t fair bring Mom and dad into our argument over something so simple.” Their parents had died in a hose fire last year and neither of them had really gotten over it. Because both were 18 almost 19 they were allowed to move and lived together in a new town. “Why did you do that though?” Echo asked as her eyes started tearing up. ”I had just wanted to go with some friends to the beach for one or two weeks, it is summer you know.” Raven ran his hand though his hair as a nervous habit and looked at the floor still avoiding eye contact with Echo’s deep green eyes, ‘I don’t want you to go we always spend summer together in Colorado on the mountains.” Echo’s face showed surprise when Raven finally looked up with dejected look on his own face. Echo smiled when she realized Raven had been upset that she was going to leave him alone, after all they were almost always together and surrounded by other people. “Actually I was thinking about having you come with us to the beach, if you wanted” Echo said smiling and tilting her head questionably. It was Ravens turn to have a surprised expression, “I don’t know.” He said uncertainly. They had gone to the mountains every summer sense they were kids, it was practically a tradition he wasn’t sure he wanted to break and they had just enough money for one trip. “Please” Echo begged and pouted slightly and raven had to give in. he sighed and nodded his head. Echo shouted in joy and hugged him as herd as she could. “But if it’s too hot were going home immediately you know I hate humid weather.” Raven said that calm commanding voice of his. Echo pouted as raven walked out of her room and yelled “It’s the beach in the middle of summer it won’t be anything but humid” but he ignored her and went to his own room. Stubborn, arrogant, and selfish she thought to herself.
