(EDITED)
I woke up, and thank the gods, it was Saturday. I got up to brush my teeth and shower before waking up the others. Gawd, they would hate me for doing such a thing. So cross that off my list.
Um, waking Jackson and his friends? No, after what happened the past few days, never.
How about waking that dumb Clara and her friends. Awesome idea, I'm in. I shut off the shower and got dressed. I figured I would go to the park after I woke the girls up.
...
...
...
I walked into the hallway wearing a black see through shirt imprinted with flowers that exposed my black bra, short jean shorts, rainbow sneakers, mascara, eyeliner, blush, blue eye shadow, and a light pink lip gloss that brought out my lips. I don't mean to brag or anything, but dang, I looked smoking hot.
I ran down a flight of stairs before coming to a stop at a hot pink door that had a beach blue sign that said "Clara's Room". I banged on it, yelling as I did so. "Hey, Clara, it's Elizabeth!", I shouted."Wake up and welcome the sunshine!" I heard a low growl through the door, and in a second the door flew open.
"What. Do. You. WANT!?!?", an infuriated bed headed Clara yelled. I chuckled.
"Nothing.", I said simply.
Clara glared daggers at me before slamming the door in my face. I grinned as I walked to the next room. Clara's best friend, Sienna Banks, lived just behind the black and white striped door. " Eh hem, Sienna, it's Eliza, and I hate to interrupt your beauty nap, but it's time to wake up!", I shouted. I heard covers being thrown off the bed and stomping. The door nearly flew off its hinges as a shorter girl with orange hair with black streaks and dark brown eyes glared at me.
"Elizabeth!", she yelled back. "What do you think you're doing?!" I smirked and rolled my eyes. "Umm, duh, waking you up, dumbo.", I replied in a matter-of-factly voice. Sienna stomped her foot and walked to her bathroom, leaving the door wide open.
I chuckled as I closed it. Your welcome, Sienna. You're welcome. I wish I could say that out loud but I know she was on the edge. Of glory. Heh heh. Okay, next stops.
I did the same thing to Ashely Miller, Katrina Miller, Bella-Lin Chao, Ginny Paterson, and Maxina Smith. They all held the same results as Clara and Sienna, making it really funny. I was literally rolling on the floor laughing.
Oh wait! I forgot I have to go to the park! I rushed outside and into my dark green Mercedes Benz, unlocking it with my keys. I hopped inside and was quick to get out of the parking lot.
Once I reached the park, I hopped out of the car and sniffed. The playground to the right was packed with kids, so I just walked over to the soccer area. It was empty, no practice or games. I closed my eyes and walked slowly across the field. The air smelled of fresh leaves and dewy grass. No one but me, me all alone-
"Hey, Elizabeth.", a masculine voice said, forcing me to open my eyes in alarm. I looked up and into the guy's eyes. Lust filled eyes.
"Jackson?!", I shouted taking three giant steps back."What're you doing here?!" Jackson up and down my body, eyeing me with such lust. "Nothing.", he replied, still checking me out. I continued to step back, then swung myself around and ran towards my car. I just got here! Seriously?!
I heard swift footsteps behind me, but I knew who it was, there was no need to turn my head around. I quickly pulled out my keys pressing the button and hearing the "beep".
I threw the car door open and quickly slammed it shut, my foot barely making it in. I stare at Jackson as he stands in front of my car, staring at me with much hurt and lust. I shiver and begin backing out of the parking lot. Okay, change of plans. Go to the mall. All I really needed was a short while away from the pack house, my friends, and Jackson. Ever since he turned 18, he's been acting so strangely.
I pulled into the mall's parking lot, hopping out and looking around for trouble. Great, all clear!
I grinned to myself as I entered the mall, looking around at my favorite shops. Hmm, how about Forever 21? Sweet. I rode the elevator up onto the next floor, running straight and making a left turn, and there was Forever 21.
I entered the store and looked around. Oh, goodie, there was a whole bunch of pretty stuff. I want to go to Claire's next!
...
...
...
I rushed out of Claire's with about 20 shopping bags in both of my hands. "Yay!", I squealed, earning me a few odd glances from nearby people. I ride the elevator back down and turned to exit the mall when I saw him. I swung around quickly and ran the other way. You could guess who it is. Yup. Jackson. As I turned the corner, I looked through the corner of my eye to see him following me. I spotted the other exit and ran forward.
As I reached the exit, I felt two muscular arms wrap around my waist and pull me back. I yelped, punching and kicking, which earned me more glances and stares. "What do you want from me?", I spat, struggling to pull free. Jackson chucked. "I want-", he began but was interrupted by someone punching the back of his head. He fell to the ground, and I got a first glance at my hero.
He was hot, with light brown hair styled into a mohawk and these silver glittering eyes. "You okay?", he asked, and I could tell he was human. Shame." Uh, yea, I'm fine, now that you've come.", I said, blushing. The boy smiled at me and put his hand out. "I'm Shane.", he said. Oh, Shane. It rhymes with shame. Well, not really. I put my hand out and shook it. "And I'm Elizabeth, but I prefer being called Eliza.", I said.
I dropped my hand back to my waist and glanced down at the unconscious Jackson. "Um, I need to call my friends, hold on.", I said, looking back up and pulling my phone out of my pocket. I dialed Cass and right away, she picked up.
"ELIZABETH LANEY MOORE WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?", Cass shouted through the phone. I rolled my eyes.
"I'm at the mall.", I replied."Listen, I need you, Mia, and Macie to be down here in five. Meet me at the second entrance." I hung up the phone before Cass could reply then slid my phone back into my pocket. I looked up at Shane. "So...", I said.
"So...", Shane said.
...
...
...
The mall doors flew open and my friends stood there panting, all utterly bewildered. "Eliza!", Mia exclaimed as she spotted me. They all began to run towards me, but stopped when they saw Shane and an unconscious Jackson on the floor. "What the F happened here?!", Cass exclaimed, motioning to Jackson.
"He was abusing Eliza.", Shane said calmly. "Who the F are you?!", Mia exclaimed rudely, pointing at Shane.
"Shane. Shane Douglas.", Shane replied, still trying to remain calm.
Macie poked Jackson, who didn't even stir."Girls, can you carry Jackson to, er... Home?", I said, glancing at Shane.
"You live with this guy?", Shane asked sadly.
"No, no! Of course not!"
"Oh, okay then."
Shane's expression changed from sad to joyful and hopeful. Damn, he was cute! "So, I'll see you around.", I said.
"Yea, see you around." he chuckled, which was almost music to my ears. Keyword, almost. Something held me back, but I couldn't quite put my finger upon it. Yea, he was cute and all, but I felt like I already belonged to someone. Someone that I've already met. What is this feeling?
