Chapter 2 - Memories
Ella's POV:
I wake up to my alarm going off. I yawn and shut it off and see the sunlight hitting me straight on my face and entire bed, I groan realizing I forgot to shut the curtains and my bedroom window. I run over and quickly shut the window, making a chilly breeze to come through one last time. I head out to the kitchen to make me and Tigerlilly, my cat, some breakfast.
I find her back on the sink/counter top waking up and streching out. As she opens her bright green and blue eyes, she meows cutely at me, wanting me to get her food.
The day I got her, about 2 months ago, was an eventful day. I found her in the pound.
~~~~Flashback~~~~
"Hello, how may I help you?" The lady at the front desk asks me politely.
"Hi, um, I'm looking for a new pet, and I figured why not save one from here." I ramble nervously. I was quite nervous and shy back then.
"Ah, come with me, we have cats, dogs, birds, puppies, kittens, ferrets, and one rat." She says nonchantedly like she's said this thousands of times, which I'm sure she has.
I think about the rat for a quick second before deciding I definitely don't want a rat. Ugg. As she leads me behind her desk, into a doorway, she stops infront of it.
"So, you can look around... see anything you like, I'll be out here...." she says sounding annoyed with my presence. She then closes the door behind her and I'm left alone with all the lonely animals as they cry out for help.
I look around seeing, dogs, a couple ferrets, and a lot of other animals.
As I try to find one that seems special to me, I go all the way to the back of the pound area. As I go head back, none of the animals seem to care that I was here. Almost as if they've just given up on their lives. As I see many, many cats and dogs and other older animals, I see no younger ones.
As I go by a frail, old dogs cell block, I hear a tiny mew. I turn around and see a black kitten sitting all alone in a cell. The only kitten here. It looks so small and helpless, and its without a mother! Who would leave a defenseless kitten in a cruel place like this!?
I bend over and call out to it.
"Hey little guy, you're pretty scared aren't you?" I say scratching its tiny chin through the bars. It purrs loudly, my whole hand vibrates from its pur.
"How young are you?" I mutter to myself. "You must be at least a couple months old..."
As I look closer at the adorable kitten, it looks me in the eye. I gasp with aweness. It has one green eye... mixed with blue.
"You're coming home with me." I say looking at the number on the cell block. #34.
I head back out to the lady remembering the kittens cell block number.
"Hi, I would like number 34."
"That one? Okay..."
~~~~ Flashback over ~~~~
As she rubs against my leg, I move towards a box with her stuff in it. I pour her food and then make an omlet with bacon and cheese in it, with an apple for myself.
As I finish eating, I sigh, knowing its gone. I smile remembering that I'm gonna go on a date with Zack tomorrow.
Eh, I might as well go buy an outfit.... or two... okay, a couple, and some food.
I go back to my room and grab a pair of black shorts, a baby blue tank-top that has an island in the middle of the ocean, while I put my hair in a pony tail. I put on some mascara and leave it like that. I don't use that much makeup. I also put on my blue heart necklace along with a blue ring on my index finger. Can't you tell I like blue?
I pick up my turquoise colored sunglasses, my phone, also with a blue case that has a blue Hawaiian flower on it, my wallet, and my earbuds. I get in my car and turn on the radio as I drive off. As I go down the road, prepared for the longish drive to the mall, I begin to think of Zack. Of course still paying attention to the road.
I had alot of fun times with Zack. Hes so sweet and caring.
(Sorry for all the flashbacks :) )
~~~Flashback~~~
As I walked around the festival, I felt pretty lonely. There's alot of couples holding hands and all that crap. But hey, I don't really need that!
Who am I kidding? So many bad boyfriends, and not enough good ones that I've had...
CRASH!
I fall on my butt along with the other person I ran into.
"I am so sorry, I wasn't paying attention infront of me, its all my fau-" I get cut off by another voice talking.
"No no, it was clearly my fault, I could have easily avoided you but I wasn't really focusing. I'm sorry.... uh, whats your name?" He says smiling a little at me. He. Oh my god was he cute. He had this cute ascent too!
"Oh, um, Ellanna. Ellanna Rose. You can call me Ella, and you are?" I said smiling as he helped me up.
"Beautiful name for a beautiful girl. I'm Zach Hillman." He said kissing my hand, while I blush a deep shade of red.
~~Flashback over~~
Thats when we first met. The next day, which the festival was still going on, he asked me out to dinner. Which lead to another and another, which then he asked me out. We're really happy that we crashed into each other. Literally.
Although, before that, my life was pretty tough and lonely. I had lived in LA at the time, in a large house. My parents were really rich, and were gone most of the time on business trips and vacations I couldn't go to anyways, other wise I was pretty much ignored. Except that they'd give me like $200 for a pizza for dinner. A fricken pizza. I never spent any of the extra money. I didn't even want it. I wanted to earn my own. Yet I still kept it. I earned enough money to go live somewhere more... secluded. With less 'higher ranked' people. But yet with other people so its not as lonely as my childhood was.
Then with the saved up money I got from food leftovers I bought some necessities for a living environment plus some more decor for my living place. Thats how I got here.
I didn't want to be 'famous' for my parents doings, but my own.
Then, I start thinking about other unnecessary things, like where did my fridge come from and how it got here even if it said 'made from China' or dolls that have that logo and more random and weird stuff.
As I'm still driving towards the mall, I look at the time in my car. 7:18. This is going to be a looong morning.... I sigh heavily gripping the steering wheel tighter.
