Chapter 1

Evelyn POV

"Evelyn, honey, wake up!" A cheerful voice said, shaking me.
"A few more minutes, please." I grumbled, pulling the covers over my head.
"You're going to be late!" My mother dragged me out of bed. Or should I say adoptive mother. I groaned, and started my morning routine. After I brushed my teeth and hair, I chose to wear a white tank-top, blue jeans, black flats, and a black leather jacket. I put my hair in a side braid over my left shoulder, and went downstairs for breakfast.
~Tiny time skip to school~
I walked to school to meet up with my friends. I haven't trusted them with my past, and probably never will.
"Hey Evelyn!" A blonde called.
"Callie!" She was my first friend at this school. Me, Callie, and Evana make up the schools 'Popular Trio', as people call us.
"Have you seen Evana yet?"
"No, but there's a new girl coming today!"
"What?" I racked my brain for any mention of a new student in my classes, then remembered that Mr. Loan, our english teacher, had told us about a new student coming, and in our class. She could be an enemy, a friend, or just another person. At least I would find out soon, as I had english first hour. I looked at the time and jumped.
"I'm gonna be late to class!" And as the good friend I am, dragged Callie with me to english. Evana will probably be there, anyway. Running down the halls, dodging people that were crowding it was no easy feat, but we made it just moments before the bell rang. Surprisingly, Evana was late. Evana Roland was never late. I'd have to ask her later.
"Miss Roland, you are late. May I ask why?"
"Sorry Mr. Loan, I was showing Carol around." I noticed a girl, maybe a year younger than me, with wavy blond hair and bright green eyes.
"Ah, you must be the new student. Come on, introduce yourself." Mr. Loan said, motioning to the front of the room. The girl walked up. "Hi, my name is Carol Webbs, I'm thirteen years old, and I just recently moved from Indiana." I froze. Webbs...Webbs... The name repeated over and over in my head. It just can't be her. How is it possible? I put on a normal expression.
"Well then, Miss Webbs, you can take a seat next to Miss Holmes here." I raised my hand and waved, putting on a smile.

"Hi, I'm Evelyn, pleasure to meet you!" Carol smiled and took a seat.

"Nice to meet you too. You remind me of someone..." She trailed off as Mr. Loan started to teach. Does she actually remember?

Carol POV

Evelyn looked disturbingly like my sister, who ran away a few years ago. It couldn't be her, right? I mean, their names are similar, Eveline and Evelyn, but I don't think she would've changed her name. Oh well, I can worry about that later. Right now, I need to focus on class.

~at lunch (still Carol POV)~

I walked down the hallway to lunch, hoping to see Evelyn. I saw her with a group, rather small, but still a group. I waved, and one of her friends saw me, waving me over.

"Hey," I sat down next to the girl who waved me over. "Callie, was it?" She nodded.

"You're the new girl?"

"Yup." I opened up my lunchbox, revealing a sandwich. Ugh. I absolutely HATE these...even the school food is better. I forced it down, waving goodbye to my aquaintances, and headed off to the library. To be honest, it was one of the few places that made me feel safe. It also gave me time to think. Evelyn looks awfully like my sister...but it can't be her. She disappeared and no one ever saw ang trace of her. I jumped at the sound of the bell, signalling that we had five minuted to get to class. Ah, I'll ponder on this later.

Sorry about how short this is. I think each chapter is going to be short... :P Especially because I'm writing these on my phone which is an iPhone SE. It's TINY. Anyways, I'll probably be transferring my book onto my other account, -Fangirl_4Life . See ya!
