THE LOOKING GLASS

Jennifer's P.O.V

Waking up the following morning I recalled last nights memories-Vlad,yuck! I got up and did my morning routine. The house was pretty boring and creepy. Unlike other fairytales I dont have any action.Well while that thought ran through my mind I decided it was time to do something.It has been weeks since I actually trained and Caleb keeps making up excuses to keep me out of his private affairs. The house,once again was empty. Caleb was M.I.A, Alica has Thamus keeping her busy(yeah they're like together), Vlad got kicked out for being a gay bum and Calebs older brother never bothers to stay when he comes home. So yeah guess that leaves me and Wilma,which I forgot to mention, Wilma is my 'babysitter'. Caleb hired her so that I wouldn't burn the house down or find out anything I'm not supposed to. So I go creeping through the house,Wilma was pre-occupied with one of those spanish sopes she keeps watching,lets just say Wilma wasn't that vigilent.A monsoon could hit the house and she wouldn't notice,she'd be too busy watchin' 'Roberto the spanish Hunk dump Lora'.So back to me I creep through the house into Caleb's 'office'.DAMN...that room was huge it had millions of paintings and portraits of himself all over the room,I admit that's hot. While drooling over the self-portraits I noticed a book-case against the wall.I walked over to it and grabbed onto a book. All of a sudden the book-case moves and Im trapped in another room. Now this room was different, you could see it was meant to be kept in secret but it looked quite unused. Dust gathered over every object in the room. I saw a large looking object draped with sheets. I carefully walked over to it,eyes glued to it,ready to attack if I needed to. I lifted up the sheets and discovered what looked like a telescope or...looking glass. I bent down studying the foreign,outdated piece of technology. I dusted off the front and in fine writing read the date 1800. I jumped back,startled at this antique peice. I dusted off the lens with my sleeve and looked through the glass. All of a sudden I felt like my soul was being ripped out of my body,like I floated of to some other place. When my head felt like it stteled down I noticed I wasn't in the secret room anymore. I wasn't looking through the lens. The scenery around me was totally different. It was old-fashioned. I noticed a young lady and man standing alone across a pond. Somehow this felt all too familiar. Than the guy faced me.Unbelievable! That's what I thought when I caught a glimpse of the young mans face. It was Caleb, only he looked younger. The conversation he was having with the young girl seemed serious. She was utterly breath-taking. One of the most beautiful girls you would ever see. She seemed nervous when talking to him,like she didn't want to be that close to him. I noticed I could stand there,listen in there conversation and they wouldn't even notice. The girl turned around leaving Caleb in the dark, she seemed to run far away leaving him pained and in silence. Just than I felt myself being sucked back, and just than I was standing in the secret room next to the looking glass. What was that? I'mnot sure but I'm sure it must enable me to look into the past. Ileft the room and got out of the office. As soon as I made my way down the hall I froze, feeling two cold hands wrapped around my waist I knew who it could be-Caleb. He greeted me and Told me about his whereabouts I could hear the sincerity in his voice but I could not tell him the truth about what I had been doing, he would freak knowing my latest discovery(The secret Room, lookin glass) So I just stood there in his icy embrace hoping he couldn't read my thoughts.Well it will have to be a secret kept secret ---For now.
