It was Tuesday, and I was getting ready for my afternoon run. I walked over to my cream colored dresser and pulled open the drawer. I picked out a blue crop top and my black Adidas shorts. I walked into my bathroom and looked into the mirror. Light streamed out from the window and made my green eyes glow. I pulled my hair back in a long wavy blonde ponytail. I looked at my figure.
I disapprovingly take a look at my height. I'm short for my age. I'm 5'0 and 16 years old.
I'm tan and my body had a nice curve to it.
My phone buzzed . I looked down at it. Emily was texting me."Hey I'm outside." It read.
I simply texted back "Ok." and headed downstairs.
I went through the hallway of packaged boxes, and opened the glass door.
Emily stood there with her blue eyes sparkling with excitement.
"Ready to go?" She asked.
"Yeah I'm ready!" I laughed.
We bounded down the brick steps and jogged across the grass onto the road, and started running.
We started sprints after we ran about two blocks.
We rounded a few corners. Emily slowed down to a stop. I slowed down and jogged in place.
"You ok Em?" I asked. "I'm fine." She answered. I turn and started jogging again until I didn't here footsteps behind me.
"You go ahead! I'm going to wait back home for you!"
"Okay!" I yell back.
I turn around and started running again. I slow down to an abrupt stop when I saw a wooded area.
I peer through the thick trees. I walked through the woods. I looked around and smiled. It was beautiful. I looked around again. I had to shake myself out of the trance.
My legs feel heavy. But I decide to keep going. I continue again through the woods. After a while my legs start to give out, and I felt a sharp pain in my left thigh.I look behind me. The trail was bending and winding as if it were chasing me.
Before I could fully turn around I clash into someone.
I fall to the ground hard.
"Ugh!" I say through clenched teeth.
I stand up and dust myself off. I widened my eyes in concern when I saw the person that I ran into, on the ground.
"Oh my God!" I say quickly. "Are you okay?!" I ask.
The boy looked up at me.
His eyes...
"Y-yeah! I'm fine!" He says quickly.
He started staring at me.
I examined every detail of him.
His dark hair.
His high cheek bones.
The shadows on his face.
His sharp jawline.
His lips.I found myself studying the color in his eyes again. They were brown with green circling his pupils. Hazel. I could feel myself blush.
Stop staring and do something.
I quickly tear myself from his eyes, that seem to be taking control of me. I awkwardly try to avoid looking into his eyes again.
I broke the silence by saying
"Here let me help you!"
I say holding out my hand to him. He looked at me again and took my hand. When our hands touched I felt a spark.
