I had been here before. A small cottage hid between the giant tree trunks. I had been here before, but how? I slowly thought back. Crap, it was from my dream with the crazy ball of light. Ok, this isn't possible. I followed Liz to the brown wooden door. And she lifted the hatch. She lowered her head and disappeared through the door, I followed. Ok, from the outside this place looked as though it hadn't been lived in for centuries but on the inside it was totally different. It felt warm and homey. The carpets were Brown and 2 cream couches filled the open planed space. A Big TV hung on the wall. The Stone Fireplace was the main source of light compared to the dime wall-lights that filtered only their surroundings.
"Harper, Your room is the Master bedroom. My son usually stays here but he is on... a trip. You shall stay here until we compromise with him. He will be back in a week but until then i shall think you should get settled in and what not. I'm going to go hunt- i mean hunt for those dogs, i wonder where they are. Bye!" Liz quickly waved and let herself out. I wandered down the long hall. Jees, this cottage was bigger on the inside. I walked past 4 doors. They all were locked. I opened the 4th one and it opened without a spooky squeak or a whine. Wow. This room is amazing. The carpets were red. The Curtains were red. The bed was red and black and in the middle of the room a black chandler hung. Are these people rich or what. This must of been there sons room. Posters of Rock Bands Lined the walls. There was almost a sexy feel coming off the room. I walked over to the already open closet door. So much for un-packing. All my clothes were hung up and Everything packed into compartments. Now what? I walked over to my bed and fell onto it and went into a calming sleep.
I woke-up to no light shining through the windows. This cottage had some serious black-out curtains. Oohh. I looked at the clock on the wall. 3.56pm. Great. I felt really hungry so i started to make my way to the kitchen. I walked blindly through the house trying to find light switch's. I couldn't find my jammies last night so i was only in my underwear when i all of a sudden i heard the front door open. Crap. I was half way down the hallway. WHERE COULD I GO. I looked around for a weapon. I noticed a umbrella leaning against a table. I grabbed it a pointed it the door. I was trembling. The lights slowly flicked on. My heart began to race as i quickly took cover in the shadow of the door.
I heard things being put down and keys being chucked onto a table. The footsteps stopped then moved down the hall. Heading for me. I peered out from the door. A cloaked figure turned round the corner. He let his hood fall. Alex Shifter. His clothes clung to his body obviously soaked from the wild rain. Music blared out from his headphones. He stood opposite me, back to me as he reached into his pocket and pulled out a set of keys. He grabbed one then shoved it into the lock. The door opened. Inside was a library with shelves of books. The room was dime and it had a small sofa in the middle of the room. I took my chance. I tiptoed into the room and hide behind another leather couch that was hidden in a darkened corner. At that moment Alex stopped. His Body became ridged as he sniffed the air. He took his headphones out and sat the on a shelf. What was i going to do. He obviously had heard me come in the room. What could i do? Well... Bolt it!
I ran from the room have scared half filled with excitement. I must of only been out the door by 9 centimetres when a firm hand grabbed my shoulder and spun me around. I felt myself being shoved against the wall.
"WHY ARE YOU HEAR!" Alex's voice echoed round the whole house.
"well, ermm , i" he put his hand to my cheek. A sudden shiver went through my whole body. I closed my eyes. I could feel him. I could hear him and see what he was thinking. Flashes of images went through my mind. The first was when i first moved hear, the hills and the rain. That slowly was filled with others. My mum and the house. My friends. Alex. The Images floated round my head then paused on one. I felt numb. The body on my carpet at home. The puddle of blood running out of the body. My mother lying lifeless. I sobbed underneath Alex's shadow. He quickly filtered that memory out my head. The next memory was of the women. The women who attacked me and probably killed me mother. Alex jerked away from me. His face looked sorry and angry. He wasn't angry at me. He was angry at something i had seen. He looked at me once more then ran out the cottage.
I shuffled over to the library and lay down on a sofa. What had he just done to me? Ok, he had somehow read my mind and i could somehow possibly, maybe do the same to him? My mind hurt as i rolled the thoughts through my mind. The storm outside became more hurricane like. I drifted off as the rain pelted off the roof.
I awoke screaming and breathing fast. " It was just a dream. Only a dream" but i couldn't help but feel angry at myself. It was the dream i had been having for at least a month now. It would start in deep woods and i was alone. Then i would see someone and i felt hope. I would try to get to them but people would appear and block my way. The would grab my arms and pull me back as the figure began to walk away. I would always wake up when the figure would realise i was screaming for him and he would turn around and begin to walk towards me. The feeling of need would wash through me. This person was my life support and i needed it to live. The person would get taken by this crowd and be pulled back and sucked into a deep dark hole. My breathing slowed down and i began to clam.
"Bad dream again?"Alex said. I jumped out my skin and fell off a bed? A bed???? Ok what !! i looked around, i was in a large room that was all white. I felt dirty with my all black underwear. WHAT!!!!
"its ok i found one of my tops and boxers and got a maid to change you" He smirked "your quite a deep sleeper." He laughed at himself as i sat there shocked. I looked under the covers. I was wearing a Large black top with designer boxers.
"where am i?"
"we're in the cottage, in one of the other rooms" he smiled a crocked smile at me. I blushed and hide my face.
"how many rooms are there in this Oohh-so-small cottage?"
"Oohh just about 20, not that big." We both laughed. My smile faded. Alex had alot of explaining to do. This boys personality changed every 5 seconds. He ether Hated or loved me.
"Alex, We need to talk. I really need some answers right now." His face faded. His expression changed (see what i mean about every 5 seconds!!)
"what do you need answers for?" his voice cracked. He knew everything i was going to ask him.
"Ok, What did you do to me last night? Why do you change what you think of me every 5 seconds a-and there is something else but i-i don't know what t-that is just yet." He smirked again.
"and you think you will figure that out?" he started to smile then became annoyed. He had just gave that away. There was something wrong. He wasn't like me. He could share thoughts, he was impossibly fast. His eyes changed colour and he was in-humanly beautiful. He interrupted my trail of thought "well, Last night is hard to explain. I think you will figure that out when you figure the rest out. I don't change what i think about you every couple of seconds, i just, well, i think i like you-" he started playing with his fingers. " and i have been trying to shut these feelings out and now i have just decided that i should give up the battle but i will not lie to you. Harper, things are not safe right now. This town is not safe. People are watching and trying to keep me away from you. Everything that has happened is my fault. What happened to you, your mum and now I'm scared that she will get you-" he trailed off then moved closer to me. " i want you to know that nothing will harm you. She will not get to you." I froze.
"who?"
"Dana Stake. My ex girlfriend and the girl who murdered your mother.
I sat back on the bed and fainted!! (OMG what's with all this fainting shit!)
