Abrupt Beginning

Chapter 4: Pinning It Down

After my little mini date with Aidan, me and Anna went shopping. We went to almost every store in the building. We went to American Eagle, Hollister, Forever 21, and Michael Kohrs. I studied all the mannequins in every window. Looking at each one depicting what was wrong, what could have made it better, or if it was beautiful, just stare in awe. "You like fashion, don't you," Anna said smirking. "I guess so, do you?" I responded. " Duh, clothes are my life. You and I need to go to Paris sometime, you would really like it." My jaw dropped and I didn't have the strength to pull it back to my face. "YAS!" I could barely utter. OMG. Paris. If I could live in clothes I would. It was just so beautiful, wether it flowed or hugged the body, it just made my heart sore. Okay, maybe not clothes in an average mall, but real art on our bodies. It was canvas for 3D magnificence, a glorious phenomenon that always spoke to me. You may think I'm crazy, that my words are too strong, however my word choice seems to fit quite accurately.

"Hey, Anna, we need to talk about something," I had to mention school at some point, and now was as good a time as ever. "I need to start going to school, soon, my medical permit expires in couple weeks." Anna sighed, instantly depressed by the idea. "Yeah, i know, I was trying to avoid it. Trust me, once u start you are gonna wish you didn't. Do you have any idea where you want to go? Of course you don't...ummmmm-" "Actually," i intercepted, "I do." "Oh?" "Yeah, it's called South Shore, do you know anything about it?" "Wow, that's an amazing school. It's private, no religion, just really academic focused. You could go to a great college if u wanted to. Not that you would have to or anything," Anna explained. "Could I go there?" I almost begged, the thought of getting on my knees occurred. "My brother went there, he really like it. He went to college though, I dropped out because I'm not all that smart. I'm also not one of those bad girls who pretends to be dumb, school just wasn't my thing," she said with a little too much certainty, as if I had told she was a bad girl. But I know she doesn't have a bad bone in her body, I bet she can't lie either. "Well, I still wanna go," i persisted. "Yeah, yeah, I'll start doing the registration stuff tomorrow," she laughed, but I could tell she wouldn't have had any intention of sending me off to school if I hadn't asked. "On a less depressing note, do you wanna go home?" She asked. "Yea I'm pooped, let's go," I replied.

When we got home she showed me my room. Up the marble staircase, and it was the last one at the end of the hallway. It was extremely large, and quite plain actually, nothing extraordinary. "Now that I know you love fashion, I will decorate your room accordingly," she said with such excitement in her eyes it made the room a little brighter. "I'll hire the designer tomorrow, it's gonna be amazing!!! Sorry for the boring one you have to sleep in for a while," she said like it was actually a problem. "Are you kidding me? This is amazing!" I gasped. I ran up to her and gave her a big hug. "Thank you," I whispered in her ear, all though I'm not sure why, it's not like anyone was listening.

By the time I crawled into bed, my first day with Anna spread out in my head. I accepted where I belonged, and it just felt right. Then Aidan filled the rest of my thoughts, he was there even when I closed my eyes. It seemed unrealistic how it happened. Seriously he had no idea who I was and he went on a shirt date with me. We could have been axe murderers, but we both knew we weren't. Everything today just seemed to click. Like I had lived my whole life, like none of it was missing. The missing piece of the puzzle didn't need to be found.
