My Life As Me

chapter 3- to choose or not to choose

My first day at forks high school was a huge blur and went by slowly. I was waiting for my dad to pick me up but then I got a text that said I was riding the bus.. How could this be happening. I walked towards bus 24 and started to get on when all of a sudden the worst thing happened I saw Vance waving at me and I started to wave back when I missed a step.. I fell down the stairs and hit my head on the concrete. Vance was running towards me. "SOPHIA!" He said frantically. He helped me sit up and rested my head on his muscular chest. "Owe. Owe!" I said trying to stand up. "Are you okay?!" he said calmer, but still worried. "Yeah of course I'm fine!" I said, pretty much just lying my butt off but he will never know that. "Okay well thank you for helping me, I'll see you later!" I said quick so because I was in so much pain. I have gave him a quick hug and hopped on the bus. I can't wait till I get my car back. Once I was home I went straight to the shower and felt better afterwards. I figured a nice calming hot shower would help me wash the day off me. When I got out the shower I heard a knock on the door. My dad wasn't home so I had to answer the door. I threw my hair into a messy bun, I put on some spandex and a v-neck. I answered the door and was surprised at who I saw it was Vance. "How did you find my address?" I said curiously and a bit nervous. "OKAY, here's the thing!" He said as he was walking into my house. "Okaay? come on in I guess!" I said a bit sarcastically. "I'm gonna tell you the thing.. this Is the thing.. here's the thing.." he said over and over again. "WHATS THE THING VANCE!" I said irritated. "I'm sorry.. I'm just nervous because, well... I really like you Sophia.. like a lot.. I just didn't know whether to tell you now or later. I was gonna tell you later cause I only just met you but I couldn't take it anymore. It was eating me alive. I just needed to know I whether you felt the same way.. which if you need to time to get to know me better that's fine but I just wanted you to know... Sooo I guess I'll let you settle that in your brain. I'll see you later Sophia!" and he left... not before hugging me and kissing me on the cheek first.. but after saying all that how could you just leave.. I stood there for a minute kind of in shock but other than that I was pretty happy. A totally gorgeous guy actually legitimately likes me. I mean who wouldn't be happy about that?! Later that evening when I was laying in bed I got to thinking about Vance, and all the things he said and I couldn't help but think about Clark too.. which is weird and probably stupid, because he's way too attractive and sophisticated for me.. Clark is a different kind of guy, it's hard to describe, Clark Cullin. He is broad shouldered, he's pale as if he was a vampire. Wouldn't that be something. He has longish hair that's short on the sides and is pushed over and spiked to the right, it's very attractive on him. He isn't as muscular as Vance.. but his body build fits his personality better as skinnier and not as buff. But let me tell you, he is very strong. That's no lie, he's very hard to comprehend. When I'm around him I'm nervous, he's very intimidating, and sophisticated. Its like he's from a different time era or something. Vance on the other hand is the complete opposite of Clark. He's out going and goofy. He likes to make you laugh and blush as much as possible. Which I'm not complaining about, I find it cute. The next day I woke up in the morning to a clicking on my window. I look outside and surprising enough it was the person I was least expecting to see... Clark was outside my window.. throwing rocks.. he had a huge grin on his face like he knew I would love this, and I did, so I'll have to give him credit for that. I opened my window to tell him "I'll be down in about 15 minutes you can come in if you'd like!?" I said hoping he would take me up on the offer. "Alright beautiful whatever you want, I'll do." And now I'm blushing, again. About 15 minutes later I went down in the kitchen to find my dad was talking to Clark. I grabbed an apple kissed my dad on the cheek bye and left with Clark to go to school. As soon as we got there, everyone stared at us as if we had lobsters crawling out of our ears. He opened my car door for me and walked me into school. It was first period, me and Clark walked in together and as soon as Vance saw us he tensed up, as did Clark. I didn't know what happened between these two but it had to be bad. I could tell they hated each other.. and I intended to find out one way or another. I took my seat and Vance reached stroked my cheek and said "Good Morning beautiful, did you think about what I said last night?" I looked over at Clark who wasn't looking at us but was intently listening and his hand was in a tight fist. I started talking quieter and said to Vance "Of course I thought about and I think..." I paused because our teacher walked in and interrupted my sentence. "HELLO CLASS! Did you all sleep well?" I looked at Vance who was devastated because I couldn't finish, but I looked at Clark who was amused at the scene. Vance was called out class so I never got to finish what I was saying, so I walked with Clark instead. As we walked together Clark put his hand around my waist as pulled me out of way of two idiots running down the hallway. I almost fell when Clark caught me and looked into my eyes and said "Glad I caught you, wouldn't want you to hurt yourself.." Yeah you'd think I'd have the best life ever but soon comes the hard part.. the choice... Clark or Vance. Decisions, Decisions.
