"Alexa, wake up" I whispered, shaking her

Her eyes fluttered open as she mumbled "What time is it?"

"6am, you have college"

She opened her eyes and stretched her arms, nearly hitting me in the face as she did

"I'm coming in a sec" she yawned, getting out of bed and going to her wardrobe to chose an outfit

I left her in peace and closed the door behind me, heading into my own room to get ready for work and get some breakfast. Elliott and I are both starting at 9am today, meaning we can take the twins and Alexa to college

As I changed into my uniform, I could hear Corey and Luke chatting about their upcoming exams and uni requirements. Luke is a smart academic kid, he wants to go to university to study geography I think - he's the type of person who will probably go to Oxford. Corey on the other hand is more sporty, he wants to take his football passion further and go into either a football career in which he plays, or to be a trainer. Whatever happens, I'll be proud of them

"Can someone help me?" Alexa called out from her room

"I'M HAVING A WEE" Elliott shouted from the bathroom

I pulled a face at his comment "TOO MUCH INFO BRO! I WILL HELP"

She was stood on her tiptoes trying to reach something from her top shelf, which made me giggle slightly; she's only 5ft bless her

"Whatcha want, shorty?" I teased, resting my arm on her head as an armrest

She pouted "Brands I cant reach my necklace, it's in the red box"

I laughed and reached down the red box, but I didn't give it to her straight away. I teased her by holding it up high, which really wound her up

"Brandssssss" she moaned, jumping and trying to reach it

A few seconds later I gave up and handed her the box, which she opened and took out a silver necklace with a small heart locket attached. She clasped it around her neck and smiled in her mirror

"It's what Mum gave me for my 13th, I felt like wearing it. She's coming back in a few days" she grinned

I nodded "You do whatever you want kiddo"

Alexa

Mum is due to come home in a few days, and I feel like I should wear the necklace, I hardly wear it really, it's not the type of thing I wear, but I feel guilty when I see the red box sitting there, with a necklace inside that should be around my neck

I didn't wear anything too extravagant for college, I only wore my black vans as per usual, my black ripped skinny jeans and a red Nike top, nothing too dressy

Corey has a game tonight, so I promised him I would go and watch, giving him the sister support he needs. They're playing a team from another college, I'm unsure of the name, but I've heard that they're really competitive

"I wish you guys could come see the game" Corey bit his lip "It's our final one"

Brandon sighed "Me too bud, we can't get it off work"

"Sorry bro" Elliott gave his brother a hug "I wish we could be there"

Corey brushed it off "No bother, it's fine, honest"

"We'll be there supporting you" Luke looked at me "You'll have your twin and your sister there at least"

I looked up at Corey and pouted "You'll have your sister and twin there! I'll show school spirit don't worry"
