Story Excerpt: The Blacktop - Chapter 1

Completely Unedited story from 2005

Lucas Lee saw the sun shining in through his blinds waking him from his slumber. His fourteen year old stomach wanted him to eat but his body just buried himself into his bed. His clock went off alarming him that his twin brother was on his way. Lucas Damien Lee son of Kelly Jones, Damien Lee, twin brother to Nicholas Michael Lee and best guy friend to the Teenage Charlie’s Angel.

Lucas Lee had Shaggy blond hair that covered his jade color eyes and he was already 5’10 and was going to keep going growing. His twin brother Nicholas was the total opposite. Nick had dark brown hair, cerulean eyes and was 5’6 but seem to grow a little.

Lucas love basketball and football due to all the running and adrenaline. Nicholas loved basketball and baseball due to the complicated plays. Nicholas was born 20 minutes after Lucas so he was dubbed the younger brother. Kelly Jones use to be Kelly Lee but when the boys were merely seven she and Damien divorced which led to the separation.

Damien was custody of Nicholas and Kelly of Lucas which led to the brother not really liking the other parent of not choosing them. Lucas dressed in some warm-up clothes and walked onto the porch waiting patiently. He heard footstep approaching him and saw his mother Kelly walking towards him with a tray of warm drinks.

Kelly was a beautiful women she had long dark brown hair and cerulean eyes she was the girl version of Nick. “Hey Ma” He whispered tiredly sitting on the railing and grabbed a hot chocolate. “Hey sweetie waiting for Nicky and your dad” She said roughing up his shaggy hair and smiling. “Yeah Nicky and I are going to do a jog and then play some football” He said taking a sip.

Then a brunette with green streaks ran onto the porch in tears. “Guys are such jackasses” She cried into Kelly. “Whoa Sams what happened?” Luke asked. “My dad is sending me to LA to be with my Aunt Rena and she has like a million cats” She cried. Samantha was the drama queen the Charlie’s Angel and the most daring.

She dyes her hair different colors; loves to play dares and all the boys love her. She has emerald colored eyes, long dark brown hair which usually streaked with colors and was already blossoming into a woman. “Sam calm down it’s just for the summer besides Jazzy and Izzy are going away too” Luke said. “Shut up Jazz is going to New York City to freaking study art and Isabella is going to Italy to visit her Papo” Sam cried.

As on cue Nicholas, Damien, Isabella and Jasmine showed up. “Hey Nick” Jazz said passing by him to a pouting Samantha. Jasmine had long beautiful blonde hair and sapphire eyes to go with it. She was the talented one and loved art but was shy at points because she thinks boys don’t like her. Then Isabella the shortest but the smartest girl out of the Charlie angel’s.

Hey Uncle Damien, Nicky” Izzy said zooming past them and onto the porch. Isabella had light brown hair that went past her shoulders and chocolate colored eyes, she talks a lot if she knows you but she is every ones friend.
