Chapter: 1
The moist ground felt good against my bare feet. I was in the woods and the air was cool blowing around me. The trees surrounded me and it was so quiet; it was peaceful. Feeling relaxed, I laid on the ground and closed my eyes. I inhaled and exhaled taking in everything around me. But when I heard foot steps, which seemed to be getting closer, I shot my eyes open and sat up to see a set of glowing eyes looking right at me. I couldn't really see what it was, but when I did I got to my feet in horror. It was a wolf. I backed up as the wolf continued to walk in my direction. I stopped when my back hit a tree. By now the wolf was right at my feet; I was terrified. For some reason that changed when I made eye contact with it; I was at peace again. The wolf was beautiful. I sat back down on the ground and was face to face with it.
"I will be with you." When I heard those words, in my head, my eyes shot open and I was looking at my bedroom's ceiling instead of the beautiful wolf that was stood in front of me. I turned my head to look at my clock: 5 o'clock .
"Fuck, not again." I'd been having the same dream for almost a week now and it woke me up at the same time every morning. I was exhausted everyday because of it. I couldn't get enough sleep and it was killing me.
"Think God it's summer." Was all I could think. With that in mind I got up and headed to my bathroom to get washed. I grabbed some Epsom salt, alcohol, and bubblebath soap. I turned the water on. I put all I grabbed into my bath water, striped my night clothes and got in. The water was nice and hot on my skin. I could feel all the tension my body had(over this dream)just melt away. I stayed in the bathtub for about thirty minutes, pretty much until I was a raisin. I pulled a fresh towel around my body and headed back to my room. I sat on my bed and turned on my TV. It was about 5:30a.m. now and there would most likely be nothing on, but I flicked through the stations anyway. I stopped when a saw two wolfs in the woods on the screen. It made me feel at peace, like I was there in the woods, like I was a wolf. Wait what. What the hell was I thinking. I turned the TV off and leaned back on my bed. There was something really strange going on with me. I was on my way back to sleep until I realized I was still naked. I got up and put on a bra and some underwear and got back in my bed, hoping I'd fall back to sleep; my thoughts finally helped me drift to sleep after ten minutes. When I got back up it was only 9 o'clock, and I knew if I tried to go back to sleep I wouldn't be able to. So I got up. I put on some pajamas then went to the bathroom. I wash my face and brushed my teeth before going down stairs to get some breakfast.
"Good morning honey, Your up early." My mother was always surprised when I got up early when I didn't need to. Even though it's been kind of a routine for the past week.
"Good morning." I said walking over to the refrigerator and getting an apple and a coke.
"Do you have any plans tonight. It is Friday." When she said that I remembered that I actually did have plans; I was going to a party tonight.
"Well, I do actually" I said turning to look at her.
"What are you doing?"
"Going to a party."
"Finally!" She said with a big smile on her face. I was kind of confused now. My mother was happy. No, overjoyed that I was going to a party.
"Are you okay mom?"
"Yes, im just happy your okay Armonie ... I thought something was wrong with you. You haven't been to a party in almost a week, and it's summer time. It's not like you to not be at a party for almost over a week."
"Wow, I would never think you would be happy I was going to a party but ok. If your happy, I'm happy." She smiled at me then went to sit at the kitchen island. She started to read her newspaper so I left her to be alone. I went back up to my room to get dressed now that I remembered about the party. I had to go get an outfit for tonight. After I got dressed, I told my mom that I was going to the mall and would be back later. She gave me a kiss goodbye, as did I, and was on my way. The mall was surprisingly not crowded and I was happy I could get in and out. I walked past a lot of stores tell I found PacSun. When I walked in, there was so many cute things that could of been the outfit for tonight. With me having bright red hair and diamond blue eyes, it was hard to not look like a complete clown. I saw some cute things, really cute things, but they were either too bright with too many colors or not enough. I settled on a light blue pair of skinny jeans with cuts in the front and a black half shirt that read 'FüçK Yøü' in floral writing. I'd wear this with my floral Doc Martens. I payed for my stuff and was on my way home in less then a hour. When I was almost home I decided I didn't want to be in the house. I pulled my phone out and called my best friend, Brittany. It rang twice before she picked up.
"Ready for this party girl?"
"Hell yeah!" I said with a little boredom. "But I'm about to come over there, okay?"
"Okay." Was all she said before she hung up. I was at her house within five minutes. I got my bag with my outfit from out the back seat and got out the car. Her door was opened when I got there so I just walked in.
"I'm home." Right as I said that Brittany walked up, smacked my butt and said, "I missed you so much baby."
All I could do was laugh. Me and Brittany were like sisters. She didn't have siblings and neither did I, so we were sisters. We knew each other for so long that it would only be right if we call one another sisters.
"Hey Brit, where's mom?"
"She's at work, but come on I wanna see what you got in that bag ... hopefully something cute." I just looked at her; I hated it when she tried to downplay my sense of style.
She had a smile on her face.
" Don't be mad. You still love me, now come on." She said walking up the steps. I followed her knowing I couldn't stay mad at her. When we got to her room I sat on the bed. She didn't even give me a chance to get settled before she snatched the bag out my hand and examined my outfit.
"Very sexy girly!" she said after looking it over. I laughed and thanked her.
"You don't think it's too much or, you know, not enough?"
"God know, just make sure your makeup and jewelry isn't too much or not enough."
"Okay."
After about three hours I decided it's time to go home.
"Okay, I'll be there at 8:30 to pick you up."
"Okay Brittany, see you later." I got in my car and headed home. When I got home I showed my mother my outfit, and even though she wasn't to keen about what my shirt read, she liked the outfit as a whole. I was surprised by how fast the time went by. Before I knew it I would be having to get ready. With that, I got up from in front of the TV and started up the steps to my bedroom. I got all my things and put it on my bed: makeup, clothes, shoes; everything I would need for the night. I went to take a shower and did my hair. I curled it; it looked real nice.
"Armonie!" My mom was calling me from down stairs.
"Yes!"
"Brittany is here!" I ran to my room and looked at the clock. 7:30. She never does what she says she going to do.
"Tell her to come up!" I hurried and put my bra and underwear on before she got to my room.
"Sexy!"
"You know you can be very lesbian sometimes?"
"Yes but I have a boyfriend so you know that couldn't be true." She said with a smirk. I got dressed and, after Brittany begged for about five minutes to do my makeup, let Brittany do my makeup.
When I was finally ready, we were on our way. We both said goodbye to my, well our mom and headed to the party. We were there in like twenty minutes and damn, the house was huge.
"Okay, so we meet back at the car at 1:30."
"And if we're not both here at that time we wait thirty minutes and then leave ... Leave the keys in the car."
Brittany just looked at me. She had a thing for setting rules but not following them. I knew she wouldn't be back here at 1:30 so I gave her till 2 o'clock. We got out the car and walked to the front door. You could hear the music from outside and when the door opened it just got louder. We walked in, looked at each other then went on our way. I went straight to the drinks. Knowing Brittany, she probably was already dancing with some guy. I grabbed a drink and sat down in a chair, bobbing my head to the beat of the music. Like my mom said, I did go to a lot of parties but I didn't really like them; Brittany always made me come. And like always, I'd end up getting drunk and having a bad hangover the next day. No guys never talked to me and I never talk to them, but tonight I had a feeling I was going to get lucky. It wasn't like I didn't want male attention; I'm a teenage girl for Jesus Christ. Just as I thought that, a boy was standing in front of me. When I looked up at him his eyes were instantly locked to mine, and I got that peace feeling. Like this morning; like I was in that dream.
"Hey, I'm Jeremy." He said holding his hand out.
"Armonie." I said and shook his hand.
electric went all through my body when our hands touched. I started to pulled away but, once again, our eyes met and I was at peace.
