Just Another Beauty {~Sequel to Sleeping Beauty~}

Just Another Beauty Chapter 12

I woken up to the sound of glass shattered on the floor. Gazing around to see what the whole problem was. 

"How could you?! You think this is funny? Bringing a strange girl into your house........? What about me?!" I heard a door slam. 

I rethought and hid behind the covers. 

"It's not what you thing Helen, please understand that I whacked this girl with a shovel and I let her sleep on the couch." Spencer's voice was weak and tired, but this girl Helen kept on taking it to a next level.

"No,it's over. You won't even let me spend the night, instead I find a girl sleeping........ ON YOUR COUCH? What am I to you?" I heard tapping,

"What no?! I assure you that nothing is going on with me and Julie. Julie isn't even twice as beautiful as you." 

Ouch, great way to start in the morning. A good looking guy doesn't find you attractive. 

I took a heavy breath and decided to end this madness, before it got any worse. 

"Helen-

"Morning." I had taken the covers off my face expecting to see an angry looking young Helen, instead I found a tree. 

"Can I ask why your yelling at a tree?" I asked, confused

Spencer was making hand signals with his hands. 

The tree started to move. Curving it's self into a person. 

I froze as a girl stood before me. Eyes red with furry. 

She was beautiful, breath taking. Spencer was right. I gulped recalling the second I said if she was a tree. Is that insulting? Maybe for a nymph. 

"Julie right?" her movements were swift and smooth as she walked towards me, "How was your sleep?"

I stood there with a dumb expression printed on my face. From the corner of my eye I saw Spencer slapping his forehead a couple of times,

"Well?" Helen's eyes pierced through mine, "I asked you a question, or are you to shocked that a tree like me came into this." she made a swift presentation of herself.

"Um, it was okay I guess." I shrugged my shoulders.

"Oh, I was just telling my boyfriend here that it's really unfair how he doesn't let me sleep over, but walla there you are. Standing before me. Spencer." her sharp edge caught both Spencer and I attention.

"Yes." Spencer asked, appeased,

"I don't mean to sound rude or anything." she was talking to me, before she went straight to Spencer, "Is it me or her." she was tracing her finger all over Spencer's chest, 

Spencer coughed a bit making it a bit awkward then it needed it to be,

"It's okay, I was just leaving." I slipped on my shoes and started to walk over to the door,

"Wait, Julie. Don't you want something to eat?" Spencer asked, 

Helen slapped Spencer's arm, "You heard her, she's leaving." she glared at Spencer before returning a smile back to me, "It was nice meeting you Jennifer."

"It's Julie." I told her,

"Whatever, have a nice trip."

I could swear that I heard her that it would be better for me to just jump in a hole and die.

"Bye, thanks Spencer."

"Yeah yeah, we've said are goodbyes." Helen pushed me out the door slamming it right in my face.

Rude much.

It was better for me to just come back to Alex and Hannah, but fate had other things planned.

~..~

There she was.

She was dancing, reciting words I didn't understand. She had long black hair. She was wearing a green gown with black sequences around her dress.She turned around, smiling showing her crooked teeth.

~..~

"Darling, how long has it been since I've seen your mother." she was standing in front of me,

I stayed there. Motionless.

"Ah, don't be that way. Your mother was much of a talker. Now, let me hear that pretty voice of yours."

This couldn't be her? Could it?

No, that's insane. The swamp fairy was short, chubby and had green eyes. This women here had dark brown eyes.

"I've lost my way. You don't mind if you tell me were I should go do you?"

"Of course, but please come with me. You look dirty and smell kind of funky." she pinched her nose.

I couldn't resist. I followed her down to a cabin. Somehow I felt dizzy and relaxed.

"Please come in." she showed me around her house before we sat down in her living room.

"How rude of me not to tell you my name. It's Lucinda."
