Burn

The day it started

  The day it all started was a normal day for me. I was still just Rosemary, I was still just 16, and I was still just normal.  In case you didn't get it my name is Rosemary but everyone calls me Rose. This is me the girl above, kind of long, dark brown hair almost black and blue eyes. Nothing to extreme. Like I said it was a normal day in Ouray, Colorado. It was  Tuesday I was walking with Callie to English class. She has to most beautiful dark brown hair and big brown eyes with these gold rings around them. She so outgoing I get jealous she can talk to anyone and think it's completely fine. Unlike me I go anywhere near the guy I like and I just don't know what to do. We get to class and I see him, Austin Blake. He's this band nerd with perfect black hair and the most amazing  dark brown eyes. He talks calmly and I sit right next to him in English. He talks to me about music all the time you can just tell that he really loves  it. And for some odd reason he likes to hear about my books that I read. He's always asking about them. Sometimes I even think he might like me with the way he talks but then she comes over and the thought leves. Because who would choose me when they can have her. Who is she your thinking. I will give you a hint. 5'4, mean, dark brown eyes, hates anyone who's not popular, snakes for hair. Oh sorry I mean brown hair. Her name, is medusa. Shoot I did it again I mean Macy. And she likes him and he knows it. He's nice to her so why would he want me, her cousin. The girl who has two dead parents and blushes when he speaks. We had to do these presentations  about books we read. It was my turn and here is Macy in front of the class she says in this snotty voice  " now I  guess it's time for miss book worm and her notes of nonsense."  I look at him who grins at me with the most amazing smile. And so how I got the courage to say " notes of nonsense you say, I did three reports we had 4 weeks to do them I read 4 books. And had to help you with yours. It's not nonsense it's time and effort."  I open up my iPad hook it up to the computer to show my  presentation. She giggles and tells everyone "watch what happens next when she sees it."  It pops up and the words are everywhere I can't read any of it. I go through all my slides nothing is right she switched the names of the characters and the pictures I put of them. I was so embarrassed and angry I didnt know what to do so just thought I have two I could present. So I pull up the next one, and the exact same thing he was done to that one, and the next one. The next thing I know I'm  was so infuriated. Everyone was laughing at me and All I could do was just stand their. I see Austin and he just looks at me maybe concerned, I think I see him mouth the words "are you alright?"  I was ready to cry but the thing that pushed me over the edge was when she said in a petty voice  " alright everyone, now let's not laugh at the pumpkin, she simply can't help that she forgot to put a lock on the app. So even I could be nice enough to help her out with her presentations.  I was only repaying the favor."  I got so mad and flustered I was wishing her hair would start on fire. But that's not what happened. I just looked at her and the next thing I know her book started on fire. 

Macy started screaming and Everyone just stood there watching as she tried to put it out.  Mrs. slimter came into the room and saw the book on fire. She grabbed it through it on the floor and stomped on it unit the fire was out. She asked how it started and everyone just looked at her in aw because nobody knew what happened. I thought to myself, no that couldn't have been from me things like that don't just happen. I remember I just stood their all I could think was "couldn't have lasted maybe ten seconds longer?" And then their it happened again the book was on fire and everyone either screamed or their mouth was open, dropped down to the floor.  It stopped  exactly 10 seconds after it started. I didn't know what to think. The bell  rang and it was the end of the day. It was time to go home and I was having a panic attach. What happened? How did it happen? Is this even possible? All thing I thought to myself. Me and Macy get home and I see my Uncle Todd. Who is also Macy's dad. We sit down on the couch. I start turning on the tv and then she says it. She told him about the book thing. He was in the kitchen. He rushed in to the living room. And the first thing he says is. "We all need to have a talk about some family things."
