If I ever [ON HOLD]

Chapter 1: To real

I began to run into the blackness of the dark forest in front of me. The trees stood strongly but they seemed delicate and frail with no leaves on them.

                I wasn’t able to talk, and if I wanted to scream I knew it wouldn’t matter because there was absolutely no one around me to hear my cries. Not another thing in these never ending rows of trees. No birds chirped and no crickets sang their songs. I was alone, that I was sure of.

                All my thoughts vanished in an instant when I almost ran into a tree, and I decided that there was no point in thinking of anything. Because obviously I had no plans to leave this forest since there seemed to be no end. But the only thing I thought of was one word, something that might help me;

Run.

My hair whipped in my face and surely I knew it was in a tangled mess by now. I kept running until in an instant I stopped almost tripping, but couldn’t because of something grabbing my leg holding me in place. I looked down to see the roots of the trees climbing my leg, trying to engulf me in its wood to hold me still.

                It was then that a fierce wind blew and finally someone was there, a boy my age stood a little ways in front of me. He had shaggy brown hair that came to his eyes, which were and emerald color. He looked about 6’3” with a white shirt and dark blue jeans. When his eyes came in sight of me he vanished; then appearing in front of me.

                I gawked at him for a moment, and if something could come out of my mouth I wouldn’t be able to say anything anyway. The bot still looked at me then closed his eyes. When his eyes opened instead of being the emerald green they were before, they were a blood red. He smirked at me and then whispered into my ear, “Boo”

            My voice finally came to me, and I screamed.

~~~~~~~~~~

            I woke up with a jolt sending the covers tumbling off my bed onto my shag carpeting ocean blue floor. The dream I had just had seemed so surreal. I could still feel my heart pounding up against my chest, and then remembered the boy’s face that had literally scared me half to death.

            I took a deep breath getting up and sauntering over to my dresser where I picked up my mirror and looked in it. My usually gleaming hazel eyes were now hallow, expressing no emotion, my dark brown curly hair which was just a few inches past my shoulder stuck out in all directions. I huffed knowing what a pain it would be to brush but quickly set down the mirror and headed toward the shower.

            When I was done I picked up a pair of blue skinny jeans and a plain beige t-shirt with matching knee high boots out of a packing box. We had just moved in to the little place of cast town. Ok, actually it was pretty big but still compared to some places it was small.

            My boxes were placed at random in my room saying things like ‘clothes’ or ‘books’.

            Sighing, I brushed my hair and shuffled down stairs, still quite tired from my dream. My new house, I admit was kind of big, and I hadn’t looked through all of it since we just moved in two days ago. The living room was finished, beige carpeting, a large brown couch sat in the corner with most of it turned and running along the wall like a sideways letter L. a 50 inch flat screen hung proudly up on the wall, where my brother and dad would watch the NFL or anything that has a sport involved. A glass coffee table was in front of the TV and a lamp sat lonely in another corner. Pictures were placed on the wall behind the couch but that was really it. I continued walking, seeing another living room, dining room, kitchen and a front room where the door was.

            Upstairs on the right had the bathroom my brothers room and my parents room. On the left side consisted of my room, a guest room, and a closet. That was really it for the house plus a basement.

            I looked in my room, Dark oak wood flooring, one radiating purple wall (just because the other three aren’t painted yet) though, I may keep it like that. A bed laid on the right wall in the corner a large window was by it and on the other side a small walk in closet. It was too big for my liking, I liked small, but there wasn’t much in this town most for sale had one floor, and we couldn’t do that. I guess this was nice though.

            “Tala!” my mom called from downstairs, most likely the kitchen. I ran downstairs to see my mom with batter on her face and a hand print of a flour hand on her pants.

            “Yes mom?” I asked raising an eyebrow.

      “Could you please take these brownies to the neighbors? Maybe there will be someone your age.”

             I took the slightly hot pan of brownies making my way to the door. “Highly doubt it mom!” I yelled as a walked out the door closing it with my foot.

            I rang the doorbell and impatiently waited for someone to open the door. Finally, I heard shuffling from the other side and the door opened with a click. A girl that actually did look about my age stood in front of me, golden blonde hair with brown highlights, and chocolate brown eyes. She wore blue skinny jeans and a shirt that said ‘ninja stealth’ with a picture of a glow in the dark ninja peering to the side.

            “Hey” I said to her.

            “Hi? Uh…um sorry I don’t know your name.” She cocked her head and stared at me.

            “I’m Tala I just moved in next door to your house so my mom told me to bring these.” I said holding out the brownies. She immediately smiled when she saw them.

            “OH! So you’re one of the people that moved into that house. Cool, there aren’t any more kids our age here so I’m glad to meet you, I’m Kasey come in!” she practically squealed.

            I moved into her house and she closed the door. “So are you gonna go to cast high?”

“Yeah starting Monday”

“Lucky you get to skip tomorrow” she sagged her shoulders.

“Hey but I’ll see you there Monday so it’s ok” I beamed at her and she smiled.

“Yeah I’ll show you around; anyway what got you to move to this place?”

            “We just had to, I don’t really know why a job or something.” And that’s how it went on for a while; we talked and talked while eating the awesome brownies until dark.

“K, well see ya” I said to Kasey, “you too!!!” she said back

Turns out she’s pretty cool, we didn’t talk much at first but then we found out we had a lot of the same interests.

            I walked into the house and saw my brother Sam and dad none other than, OMG the TV! Walking into the kitchen I got dinner and headed upstairs. Today was defiantly long, though I feel me and Kasey will be real good friends. I slipped on my purple and green pajamas and got on my bed closing my eyes until I was engulfed into a dream until morning.
