Dreams

Chapter 1: Best Friends Ever

My aunt rolled me into the classroom. She kissed me on my forehead. “lunny if you need anything you know teddy will be here any second. And he will start driving you to school next week ok hunny?”

“Ok auntie thank you.” I told my aunt as she walked into the hallway. I’ve been living with my aunt for the past few years and she can be a little overprotective. I cant blame her though I mean I’m in a wheelchair. I start to think about the past events in my life and get lost in my thoughts. The teacher walks into the room and greets me. I say hello back. A familiar smell fills my nose and I feel a pair of hands cover my eyes. I instantly know who it is, but I play along and act shocked and terrified.

“Come with me or else I will kill you, steal your ears and give them to a prostitute.” Says mystery man in an unusual deep voice.

“Ok, I will play along but Teddy I know it’s you. By the way please stop watching the history channel special on artist” I joked as teddy took his hands away from my closed eyes. The raw disappointment rolled into his aura but quickly disappeared as he helped me get situated for class. Teddy has been my best friend since I can’t even remember because we met when we were babies. My mom told me we were inseparable and had play dates every two days. Our families even had to trade off relatives to take care of us when they went on vacations.

“Aww Lunny that’s not playing along.” Chimed in dawn as she struggled to walk into the class room with her heavy and noise book bag.

“Speaking of not playing along, I don’t think a girl should be handling such a heavy book bag.” Slugged in Jules right behind her before he threw dawns book bag on the floor. Kurt walked in behind him and said hey to me.

“Come on Jules we all know dawn has unusual manly strength” teased teddy.

“No it’s called motherly strength” retorted dawn as she kissed me on my forehead.

“Thanks mama” I joked with dawn as she sat down next to me. Dawn has been there for me since I’ve been in a wheel chair or was it before that. I can’t really remember but she is probably my only adolescent female friend I have. Since I tend to attract guys a lot most girls don’t want me around. Air go I’m an outcast and probably the reason my friends are outcasts too. I got sad at the thought of me bringing down my friends but I couldn’t indulge myself into my pitty party because as soon as I wanted to I felt a pair of arms wrap around me. I smelt sweet strawberry/lilly perfume so I figured out it was dawn.

“now, Lunny how do you feel about me taking you out shopping. You need a new wardrobe I mean look at you.” She let go of me and started walking around me and analyizing me. “ I mean I love your aunt but she needs to let you wear what I pick out for you. Your shirt is the cute blue and white stripes tanktop I got you last week. And I agree with the jean jacket but the pink fluffy layered and short skirt, I really discourage. Even though you have the cute long legs she does not always have to show them off. And who is she trying to impress with the light pink blush and lip gloss. Also how dare she curl your hair after I spent the whole weekend straightening your back length hair. Man the thought of her doing this angers the crap out of me.” She semi screamed as she rubbed her teeth together trying to calm herself down. I know its wrong to lie but I cant have dawn and my aunt arguing again on what I wear.

“um,dawn actually I um asked her to curl it. the strands kept messing with me and I wanted to seem more girly today.” I stuttered trying to sound as apologetic and adorable as I could.

“Well its fine then. I mean it is your body you can control the way you look. I just don’t want you to look too fragile. I don’t want to have to beat up anyone for you again.” At that her mood softened and her voice lowered. I squealed because I defused the situation. Finally the bell rang and class started.

… After class

As dawn and Jules talked Kurt moved me from my class seat to my wheel chair and Teddy obviously monitored how well Kurt handled me. I insisted on getting out the seat on my own but teddy forced me to wait to be helped. It was Kurt’s turn to do it because all of them (including dawn) take turns on who changes my chairs each class period. Teddy wants to do it every class period but his teachers kept getting annoyed by his lateness to their class. Dawn walked back over to us informed us that we need to go to study hall. Because I need special studying I have to go to special places to study. Its usually Kurt’s or Jule’s job to take me there since they don’t even go to their designated areas. Jules goes behind the school to smoke. Kurt on the other hand practices his soccer outside. Its really weird they are like this because they are twins identical at that and in ways the exact same person. They can even finish each other’s sentences and think in similar way. Twin telepathy they call it. i hear what they look like too from the girls in the hall as one of them push me down it. Kurt has dirty  blonde hair and jules is black. Both are shaggy but Jules is longer. Kurt has a slimmer and more angler face than Jules though. And Jules eyes are wider than Kurt's with a more drowsy look because he's tired alot. Both eyes are brown but Kurt has green contacts. Its funny how these girls can give such a detailed analysis of each of them when they only see them in the halls.  The really messed up about them though is Kurt. He acts as if he does not want to be the same as Jules. The instant Jules shows interest in something Kurt turns it down for himself. I remember when Kurt started playing the guitar back in 8th grade. His fingers flowed through the strings like an angle on a harp. I could tell he loved it but when Jules started singing Kurt just stopped. I haven’t heard Kurt’s angelic hands hit the strings since. I started trying to figure out why things are this way between them. I got too deep in thought though. I could tell because my face started to hurt after being contoured into my thinking face"Ugh I gotta stop doing that" I mumbled to myself. I distinctly remember my mom showing me my thinking face in the mirror back when I was a little kid and could see. That face surprised and scared me so much that I still have nightmares about it. Suddenly my heart started to ache as thoughts of my mom fluttered into my mind. Then to make it worse I started thinking about my dad nearly making me want to cry. suddely everything started to spin and i got dizzy. after it stopped something told me that was not just in my head.

"what the crap was..." I wasn't asking anyone of course cause no one is- "wait Kurt did you just spin me?"

"nope its jules." i mentally slap myself for not noticing the difference. "and you shouldn't let your brain wonder too much and dawn teddy and Kurt have already went to their study hall" I could hear the struggle in his voice not to smile. "You know Lune you should try and not be misses' space cadet for once. I poked your face like three times and spun you while you were in thinky mode or whatever you call it. Teddy gets annoying when he is worried about you and the rest of us cant keep a solid conversation without him getting distracted"

"Jules I know teddy is one of your best friends wait scratch that your best friend. So keeping him from worrying about me has stopped being an issue a while ago. What's wrong?"

"Hmm you know for a girl who is too blind to see your eyes are pretty open. But since you want to get straight to the point, here is a little teaser." I feel him yank my chair and start moving me through the hallway.

"You know for one of the most popular guys in school you're not that mysterious and cool!" He ignored my insult, of course, and I feel a pair of doors approaching us.
