Ch. 10
A New Day
"Haha very funny , ok i'm gonna go get dressed i'll meet you downstairs." he replies.
"K see ya." I reply. "Right?"
"Ya......" he says and walks out.
“Knock, knock.” A boy said but I didn’t recognize his voice.
“Come in.” I say, forgeting that i'm still in my pajamas.
“Get dressed and meet us down stairs in the dining hall, by the way I haven’t officially introduced myself, I’m Alex.” he said.
“Ok?” I question. “I’m Alice” He holds his hand out and I shake it. He leaves the room.
Do, I know an Alex?, who is he?, oh wait wasn’t that the name of the guy on the streets trying to protect me from that Brandon guy or whoever he was. He looked strangely odd because he looked like me. Yeah I think he is Alex.
I open my closet. All I saw was dresses and fancy clothes like what those little girls and boys wore. Ughhhh...... do I have to wear it. No jeans and no t-shirts.
I picked out a pretty blue sparkly dress that sparkles at every turn. It flowed out and was really fluffy!
I’ve always wanted to wear an elegant dress, but we could never afford it.
I picked the blue one to go with my dark hair. I wonder why Jared didn’t come up to tell me to come down, and Alex did. I put my hair up in a really cute curly hair style. I put on these 5 in. heels, so high that my mom would kill me if she saw me in them. I walk to the door trying not to fall. I open the door to see Jared about the knock on it. I feel weird because i’m a lot taller than him.
“No, jeans?” I say.
“Yah, I don’t know why?” He replied. “Come on.” He holds out his arm.
I’m supposed to grab it and lock arms with him but its awkward. I cough, trying not to fall.
“What?” I ask.
“Okay then?” he says. “Let’s go.”
We walk down the stairs to the long table.
“I can see Charlotte and Brenda are having a fun time with their dresses and new wardrobe.” I say.
“Yep, that’s my brother Drake and my sister Kimmy down their too.” he said pointing to Drake and Kimmy.
Oh Drake..... lol Charlotte uh ok.
"Kimmy?" I ask. I see my best friend Kimmy! I take off my heels and hold them in my hand and run to Kimmy! Kimmy runs to me.
"Kimmy!" I say.
"Allie!" she replies.
"What are you doing here?, How, What?, Why?" I ask.
"Wait did I tell you Jared's my brother?" she says.
"No?, I think you left that out." I say. " Oh my gosh. Your Jared's sister? That's why he is cute!"
"Ya. Why? and haha" she says.
"Your brother was like um... never mind, but he is you know." I whisper.
"Haha." She says. "K i got to go sit down, see ya later!"
I put back on my shoes and walk toward my seat and see Char.
“Hey Char.... I mean Charlotte.” I say.
“Hey, nice dress.” she said.
“Thanks, you too.” I say.
Then we hear Madame Micheal tap on a glass with her spoon. Jared put his arm on my back and led me to go sit down.
The seating arrangement was lame. We had to sit boy, girl, boy, girl. I sat between Jared and Alex.
We see our own personally waiters come in. They all put some kind of omelet in front of us. It had cheese and herbs in it. Char sat by Drake, Jared’s brother, and Kimmy sat in between Jared and Drake
“How are you enjoying your time here?” Alex asked me.
“Good.” I say. “A whole new wardrobe though.”
“Yah, Jared I helped pick them out” he said. “There’s 3 pairs of jeans in 3B” he whispered.
“Really?, thanks, I was looking all over for some, but I couldn’t find any?” I said.
Then I see a waitor take my half eaten omelet away and put I think what is Crème Brûlée.
I try some and it's really creamy, but I only eat some of it.
Then, Madame dismisses us to go back to our rooms. I walk up the stairs, open my door, and I see this creature in my room.
"No, no, no um, uh I won't hurt you ummmm." I say and hesitate to move.
Then, I hear a gunshot, one just like on the bus. I look and see the creature melting into green thick slime all over my rug.
“Ughhh erggg ewwww!” I say. “What is that, it smells?”
“Just slime from the creature.” Alex says walking by then leaves like it was not a big deal.
I wanna know where the jeans are so I can get this big dress off me!?
I take my remote from my bed and press 3B. I walk up to the drawer. No jeans only a picture of my family. My mom, dad, me, Char, Da, and Nick, but someone else was in it. I put on my glasses to see who it was. Alex was in it too.
