Secrets (Vampire s&Werewolves)

Happy Birthday

I awoke to the alarm on my phone flashing 6:15 am. My first instinct was to push the ignore button. I caught myself before my eager fingers could reach the button; Pushing that button meant I would've just rolled over and went back to sleep. I couldn't though because today was my seventeenth birthday. Which meant I had to look my best. So, I slowly opened my eyes and the first thing I saw was my mahogany ceiling fan with gold trim and glass goblets. My window was still open from last night, light blue curtains blowing with the morning breeze. I forced myself to get up from the bed and get ready for school.

Ahour later I stood in front of the bus stop. Drenched in the pouring rain. If I'd only remembered to bring my uumbrella. Well so much for looking beautiful today. I didn't hear any foot steps but yet I knew she was behind me. '' The bus is officially late and so are you. What took you so long?'' I turned around and my breath almost stopped. I mentally shook it off. My best friend was beautiful, otherworldly, and stunning even. She stood there with her full lips in a perfect smirk. She has long caramel hair that cascades down her back with skin a few shades lighter. Her hazel green eyes seem to some how enhance her beauty. She's curvy in the all the right places. Ugh some people get all the luck. '' Beauty can't be rushed.'' Isabella said while lifting her umbrella higher. I scooted under her umbrella even though it was too little too late. '' Plus it doesn't look like I missed much. The bus is a no show, we're going to be late.'' Isabella stated while tossing her hair behind her shoulders. '' Not on my birthday! How am I going to get Trevor's attention today if I'm soaked and rideless.'' I whined '' There there'' Isabella crooned, '' We can just call my boyfriend he'll give us a ride.'' If I hadn't been desperate I would have screamed NO at the top of my lungs but instead I just tried not to think about Izzy's weird but hot older boyfriend.

The ride to school wasn't as bad as I feared. Atleast they weren't lip locking or anything but I didn't know if the hand holding and googly eyes was any better. Looking out the window all I could see was trees green and leafy. The trees seemed endless, it was hard to believe that a town was just beyond the bend.As the car sped down the street the trees started to kind of blurr together. The farther we drove i started to see familar buildings and i knew we were almost there. As soon as Zander pulled into the student parking lot I unbuckled my seat belt and bolted as fast as i could from the car. The final bell hadn't rang yet but it was only a matter of minutes before it did. I ran to the girls bathroom with Izzy right behind me. Looking through my bag i pulled out my brush to try and tame my drying frizzy hair. Aarg! I spent all morning flat ironing out my naturally curly hair. " Here let me do it. I don't know why you didn't just wear it curly you have pretty curls." Isbella said.I handed her the brush. "Thanks but my curls never got Trevor to spare a glance in my direction before." Isbella rolled her eyes but kept brushing. It didn't help much my hair ended up curling right back up.So we just left it alone and started walking toward our seperate classes. Despite izzy's reassures that it looked good curly i still felt uncomfortable with my appearance. Soon as i reached my desk the final bell rang i was relieved to have made it in time. The feeling didn't last long when i turned to my left and saw that trevor hadn't even looked up from his phone that he was hiding under his desk. I sank ungracefully to my seat and pulled out my math homework that i didn't finsh. Home room was pretty much boring but I was hopeing today would be different. Mr.Crowsby entered the room looking up tight as ever.Appearantly he took his job alittle too seriously and would quickly send you to the office no questions asked if he caught you talking or passing notes. Trevor looked up from his phone when Mr.Crowsby began talking. I wanted to stare at him directly but i didn't for fear that he would see i was looking. Instead i just watched him from the corner of my eyes. I wanted so badly to touch his black hair that was constantly falling in his eyes. His eyes a beautiful peircing blue made him seem intense like he had depth to him that no other teenage boy could have. He was amensly beautiful in fact so beautiful that it was hard to believe he was real. After homeroom was over and everyone started to leave i tryed walking in front of him so he would have to look at me. But it didn't work out the way I planned.As i turned to walk towards the door at the same time he did i tripped (over i don't know what) and almost fell forward. He caught my elbow just in time and saved me from the embrassment of the century. I looked up and his eyes found mine. I became lost in his eyes and for a moment i thought he was going to say something by the way he opened but closed his mouth. He broke the trance i was in by looking away."becareful" he said barely above a whisper. He looked back at me as if he expected me to say something. I couldn't speak all i could do is stare. My arm was tingling as he held it and he must have noticed that he was still holding it because he quickly let go. I could still feel the tingly sensation from were he had touched me. I tryed to concentrate so i could form sentences but before i could pull myself together he simply turned and walked out the door. Even though i basically blew the biggest chance I've ever had to talk to him, i still thought of our encounter as a sucess.
