Hi guys, this is my first ever story in wattpad, although I have been reading the books on here...I figured I would give it a try. I'm just going to write the first chapter of this story, and post it..hoping for some good comments on what ya'll think, and if I should keep going. Anyways, thank you for trying, and reading, and hope you all enjoy!!
'I just killed an innocent man, or at least that's what he seemed to be...' that's all that seems to flood into my mind as I lay in bed, sleep not wanting to over take my mind and body, so I just lay there, lost in thought, thinking of the past 2 years, and what I have caused. Not wanting to be right, I tell myself over and over that it wasn't my fault, yet the other person inside me differs with my answer. 'you were the one that did this...you ruined his life...' I tried desperately to shut the other one out, but with no use. its like this ever night, and every night it seems to get worse. As I fight back the tears that are now stinging my eyes, I think about anything else...not sure what, just making sure it wasn't him. I close my eyes, and try to dream of a future...one with no problems or worries, a future that holds many possibilities for a girl like myself, and with that I slowly give in to the sleep that was not there five minutes ago.
Dawn approachs, and I wake to the sound of my mom getting ready for work, guessing its around seven in the morning, I figured I had about another three hours of sleep...if even that much. It's summer and no school, which means nothing to do to keep myself busy. As soon as I hear the car leave, I decide to pull my sore body out of bed. Looking in my mirror, I see a girl I recognize, but not fully. same brown, dull curly hair, and life less blue eyes. 'Another day in paradise' I think to myself. As I walk inatto the living, I notice the house is quite...as always I am left alone.
Noon strikes, and I hear a knock on the back door...'odd, no one uses that door...' I think. I slowly open one of the courtains, and see a guy around the age of sixteen, tall, tan, strong build with the most exotic eyes I have ever seen...they look almose red, but with a hint of brown, 'this guy must be wearing contacts...' he looks at the curtain, and I quickly look away, worried that he saw me, I dared not to look again. When I was sure he was gone, I peeked a look, and saw no one. I sighed a relief.
3 months later...
School starts tomorrow, and I am jumping with happiness. After that whole, saw the dude thing, I decided to tell no one, my guess was he was just lost, and I had no worries. So, after a quick breakfast I decide to head off, starting my first day in tenth grade, at Trinity High School.
It's been almost three months ib school, and its moving slow, sometimes I wonder why I wanted school back, then I remember...to get away from the horrible things I caused. If only life was easier for a girl like me...but then again, who am I? Sitting in a very uncomfortable chair, I begin to think about that day, almost two years ago, when my life changed forever...
I'm walking down the side road, something I do every Saturday, just walking minding my own business, when I hear tires screeching on the pavement behind me, I take no notice because this always happens in my hometown...I keep walking with my head down, and jacket hood up, not paying attention to where I was going. Ten minutes later, I finally look up and see I'm on a street I didn't realize. I take a quick look around, and see headlights not to far. With my phone only having 10% juice left, I head to the vechical.
As I near the car, I see a man, maybe early twenties, it was to hard to tell due the darkness surrounding me. "excuse me? Sir, I understand that its late, but I got lost walking, was wondering if you could give me a lift?"
I am disrupted from the memory by the teacher smacking her ruler on my desk, " Ms. Zorn, would you like to repeat what I had just told your classmates?" I rack my brain of some sort of memory...or anything to help me with this problem. Minutes seem like hours as I can't come up with an answer..Mrs. Rhem waits patiently with a I thought so. look on her face. I look down at me desk, and Mrs. Rhem smiles, obvious that she has won. "Ms. Zorn I would like you to stay after class today..again." She adds that last part quietly, making sure I was the only one who heard, but I heard snickers behind me, knowing exactly what they were for.
