I awoke from the same dream that kept piercing my mind for a week now It always confused me but every night I could swear it was real almost like a memory. I looked outside my bedroom window at the clear blue sky that blanketed my neighbourhood .My heart started to race and it was like there was a voice in my head telling me to jump.That was when I noticed the guy across the street.He was absolutely gorgeous just looking at him made my eyes hurt but I couldn't look away.It was like we were having a conversation and the look in our eyes were doing the talking.Just as I realized that it was awkward having a staring competition with a guy I didnt know ,he abruptly ended the conversation and closed the blinds.
I sank down in the wall and finally let out the breath I didn't know I was holding.My heart was racing even faster now from holding my breath and I closed my eyes in an attempt to steady my breathing .I rose and went to the mirror to do my hair , I nearly cried at the sight that unfolded before me.My long curly black hair was matted down on one side of my face and the other side looked like a bird's nest.My green eyes were bloodshot .I looked like a monster and I just realized why the guy was staring at me for so long.
"Mhmm the guy"I said inwardly.I couldn't make out his face clearly but I could tell he was gorgeous.He was probably my father's height and had black or dark brown hair.He had a light brown tint to his skin lighter than my caramel complexion but certainly not white probably from a deep tan.His body was built and I guessed that he had abs because a guy with that type of looks must have abs .It was weird however how I felt pulled to him and even though I didn't know him I felt like I could just run to him and cry on his chest.
"Whoa I really need to stop watching the Young and the Restless so late in the night " I grumbled and I started to comb my hair for school,daydreaming about what I would do if I saw that guy again.I was shaken out of my daydream by a soft knock on my door.I opened it to see my father will a bowl of strawberries in his hand.
"Good Morning "my father said cheerfully.
Everyone loved my father and even though I was sure he was well in his 40's he had always managed to look young.His blonde hair was cut a little short and he had blue eyes ,a straight nose and full lips.He was tall and stood at about 6'5 and always looked fit.My father was gorgeous and I always felt average beside him.I didn't know my mother and I had no idea how my mother looked but my dad said that she was Spanish and very beautiful so I guess that explained my Hispanic looks.Even though most people would say I have the most perfect father it kind of have it downfalls because who wants to have a parent that is always right?And not to mention the constant numbers being shoved in my lockers saying they are my father's soul mate.
I was slowly getting annoyed and I realized I could'nt find any flaw in my father .It was then that he flashed me his killer smiles.
"Alice ,are you okay honey you look a little red?'he asked concerned.
"I am fine dad"i said coldly.My father didn't deserve it but everyone and everything are upsetting me today.I thought back to the guy in the window and how he shut the blinds on me and I began stabbing my strawberries with my spoon.
I looked up to see my dad looking at me with a worried expression and down at my crushed up strawberries.
"OK I'm off to school"I said hurriedly and I hurried down the stairs and into my yellow mini ,trying to get a hold on my emotions.My hands were shaking and I knocked my head on the steering wheel.I started to drive to school.I didn't think my time of the month was coming anytime soon so I knew something was wrong.I was the nice girl of my school and as a result I had many friends.Most of the time however it was like that was the outer me .I went around being the perfect goody two shoes.I always did my homework and I was never late.
Sometimes my friend Sammi would tell me that because I never got angry one day I would burst.I tried explaining that it wasn't my fault I never got angry it's just that I didn't have anything to be angry about.
I was stuck in the normal 15 minute traffic that I had to go through to head to school.Today was just another day of waiting .I would normally listen to some Katy Perry but today I was not in the mood.My anger was subsiding and as the traffic started to move a pick up truck overtook my car ,knocking off my headlight.Now nice Alice would just let it slide and would understand that this person probably has a job interview or somewhere seriously important that he had to go.However,nice Alice took a vacation and was replaced with someone I could'nt identify
My eye started to twitch and my hands started to shake .I was reaching in the back for the hammer I promised to give the woodwork shop and was turning the door handle when a bird pooped on my window.That made me even more upset but I was instantly calmed when I looked up at the clear,blue sky.I started to name the clouds and even sing a song in my head .
Instantly ,I calmed down.I looked up at the sky one more time before trying to remember the song I was singing.I could'nt remember it but I felt like I knew i for a while.I turned off the interstate catching a view of the driver of the pickup truck',a buff biker with bleached hair who smirked at me as I drove by.
I started to feel angry again but I looked up at the sky once more and willed myself to calm down.
"Alice something is definitely wrong" I mumbled and I started my drive to school.There were so many things that have never bothered me before and it was weird how I got peace by looking up at the sky.When I finally arrived at school I was greeted by her usual crowd of people.I suddenly realized how fake these people were and I began my search for Sammi and Andy.I saw them talking to Alice and Alie,the blonde twins who had slept with every boy in the school by the time they were 15 and the fakest people I had ever met.
They both looked at me and smiled a little too sweetly,"Hey Alibaba"they chimed.I winced at the awful nickname they gave me before muttering a quick hi and going to class.The twins just shrugged and continued talking but Sammi and Andi looked very confused .
For the rest of the day I was in a funk ,I didn't talk to Sammi or Andy.I didn't raise my hand in class or greet any of the teachers.Most of my friends were confused but I was confused as well and so I left right after school.
I was driving back when I saw a car crash near the intersection.The car was completely destroyed and a man's body was lying about 40 feet from the site .His neck was twisted in an awkward position and his body was bloodied beyond recognition. Near the site I swore that I saw the same gorgeous guy from this morning. I watched as he backed behind a store that would'nt recognize if I didn't see him go there.I followed him blindly all the way to the back. My heart was threatening to break out of my chest as I stepped behind a box in the dark alley.I saw the guy but this time he was holding a body bag on his shoulders.He looked so mesmerizing up close and soon I was trapped in another trance.
He was even more gorgeous up close.He had a chiseled jaw,a straight nose and beautiful full lips .His hair was definitely jet black and he had a type of exotic look that I could'nt put my finger on.His body definitely was definitely muscled and though he looked 17 he looked mature.
I was about to approach him when the most amazing thing happened.A pair of translucent golden wings soon formed and the man started to rise into a white swirl of clouds that reminded her of dream. .I inched closer and knocked over a nearby can causing a loud thud .His eyes flashed to me and a grim expression took over his face.The last thing I remembered before slipping away was that his eyes were definitely hazel.....
AN : SO FOR ALL THE READERS THAT READ THIS BEFORE AS YOU HAVE NOTICED THE EVNTS OF THIS CHAPTER ARE THE SAME.ALL I DID WAS PUT IT IN FIRST PERSON.
If you are wondering why I put it in first person it is because a lot of events in the book is going to be based on her internal battle and the way in which my story is going to go she needs to be in first person.Feel free to criticize I don't mind but umm..I don't really need to see any comments if you hate the book or not because I don't think by saying that you are helping the author
Also chapter 2 is still in third person so please don't get mad but it took me an hour to write this over in first person so chapter 2 will have to wait a while.You guys can share ideas but know that I already know where this book is heading.Oh and also dont expect a lot of authors notes.
