Losing Your Mind

Chapter 2

BEEP BEEP BEEP!! “Oh my god really!?” I yelled into my pillow annoyed. “Ugh!” I grunted getting up lazily to turn off my alarm clock which was on my dresser. I slammed my hand on it and yawned loudly going straight to my bathroom still half asleep. I stripped lazily in the bathroom attached to my room surprisingly. But this was only a two bedroom house so two rooms with a bathroom isn’t too surprising. I turned on the shower and started to wash myself  surprised I got out of bed instead of sleeping in and getting up to rush and get ready at the last minute. I shrugged at that then quickly got out the shower after washing myself and hair. I blow dried my hair brushing it out then going to my clothes I laid out last night. I hung them back up and decided to go with something else for my first day. “Hmm… What should I wear…” I muttered looking around my walk-in closet. “Got it!”

            I pulled out some black underwear and matching bra and pulled it on then put on some light colored skinny jeans with a wide black belt. I put on some black ankle high, high heeled boots then pulled a white shirt with black sleeves over my head. The shirt stopped right below my belly button showing a little midriff. I smiled at my reflection before going to open my curtains to let the bright light in. I looked at my street seeing that I wasn’t too far from Bonnie’s place. I gasped to myself jumping up and down quickly running to my bathroom to straighten my waist length chestnut brown hair leaving a side part. I smiled and put on some light make up, lip gloss eyeliner and mascara. ‘Oh my God! If I hurry I scan surprise her!!’ I yelled in my head. I checked the time as I finished up, oh shit! It was 7:40 and school started at 8:30am. “Knowing BonBon she’ll want to get there early with Elena and Care-Bear...” I said to myself as I walked to my closet pulling out my black leather jacket with the opening bent to the sides, not meant to close. I ran a hand through my hair and smiled before leaving my room and picking up my brown shoulder bag on the way out the door saying a quick ‘bye’ to the two in the kitchen cooking.

 I walked out past the driveway looking longingly at my black Chrysler 200. Yeah, I know its old but I love that car and I keep it looking brand new and shiny 24/7. I strutted a block down to Bonnie’s house and knocked eagerly.

 I had only told Matt I was coming here to Mystic Falls before hand to surprise everyone on the first day. I couldn’t fight my mischievous grin as I awaited the look on her face when she saw me.  Her grandmother opened the door and I smiled at her, “HI Ms. Bennett! I missed you! Is BonBon here?” I said fast and eagerly. She laughed at me and gave me a hug, “I missed you too, child. Bonnie’s-“ She started, but when I hugged her back she stopped and pulled away quickly looking at me with wide curious eyes.

 I furrowed my eye brows, “You okay Ms.Bennett?” I said nervously wandering what I did wrong. She shook her head about to say something when Bonnie came down stairs, “Hey Gran, is someone at the doo-“ She started until she saw me. I quickly forgot about grandma and squealed happily, “BONNIEE!!!” I yelled running into the house meeting her halfway as she ran as well, “MELANIEE!!” She screamed and we ran into eachother’s arms squeezing the life out of eachother.

“OMG! Mel! Where have you been? I missed you so much!? What happened? How’d you come back? Wh-“, I cut her off putting a hand over her mouth letting a warm smile that I’ve missed come across my face. “I’ll explain it all to you on the way BonBon.” I laughed out. She nodded out of breath. We both stared at eachother for a second then busted out laughing. Her grandmother seemed to snap out of whatever trance she was in and smiled at the two of us.”Okay, Okay, Now you two. Don’t be late, go on to school!” She said with a grandmotherly smile that I missed.  We smiled at eachother and linked arms going to her car. “Shotgun!” I called out hopping in front giggling. Bonnie laughed, “Well, seeing as there’s no one else to say otherwise…” She said looking at me weird.
