Invisible Strings

Chapter 2

"I have always loved you, I secretly wrote letters that I wanted to give you. I only wanted you. That's why I didn't acknowledge all those other girls, I only wanted you." He said softly, while his eyes look directly at mines. He caresses my face and I couldn't help but close my eyes. I held his hands on mine, then looked at him smiling. "I know, I have always known, I... I love you too." I feel my face flush and turn hotter every second I could feel his eyes on me. He put his index and thumb to raise my chin to his level , then he smiled. I almost melted when he smiled, and he's smiling at me, me!

As we were about to kiss I already felt his breath on mine, so close... he's so close to me. That's when I heard it, that loud and blaring sound, it was deafening, I looked around to find where the sound came from, but the football field of our school was empty. When I turned back to look at him, he... was gone.

I gasped and immediately sat up from my bed, I was out of breath. I looked around and saw the source. I glared and growled at it angrily. I immediately pounced to it, and turned it off, forever. I still have 45 mins before class, I'll sleep for just 5 mins then Ill be up. Don't want to be late today!

I was counting to 5 mins so I wouldn't fall back to sleep, but it's like the soft mattress is caressingly my skin, it's like its made for me, the pillow is a nest for my head, the duvet is protecting me from the cold cold world outside. I stretched the my muscles and bones and moaned, stretching is the best thing after a long nights sleep.I sat up after 5 mins, okay maybe it was more than five minutes I honestly forgot. I looked at my phone and I felt it. The panic, my heart is beating fast and my mind is slowly turning into a mess. I'm definitely going to need to use my phone instead of the clock as alarm and create like 10 alarms.

15 more minutes. I did my routine and put on my school uniform. It was a black plaided skirt that has a zipper on the side, then a white button up shirt, a black tie plus a black blazer with the Ivywood patch and gold lining at the ends of the folded flaps, and some socks and black heels shoes. I grabbed my peach colored back pack. I put on some lip gloss, light foundation, added some blush, and then mascara. I looked at myself at the mirror and smiled, my hair is cooperative today, I just brushed it some more, fixed my bed and I closed the door to my room.I slid down the railing of our stairs, I'm bad-ass like that.

I ran to the kitchen and saw my dad drinking coffee and watching last night's news on the living room. "Morning" I heard him call from the other room. "Yep, morning." I made some toast. I already hear my dad calling so I rushed out the front door, he's already inside our jeep cherokee, I rushed to the car and opened the door, but I felt like I forgot something."Hurry up honey! We don't have all day, It's first day of school remember?" I looked at him and tapped my feet on the ground, thinking. What did I forget? I brushed my teeth, i checked my breath and it's not bad so check, Am I wearing panties?... yep, check. Ugh it's the first day of school I can't be late. Wait, that's it!

I ran to back to the house and I opened the front door. I heard my dad calling out for me, " Annalise Belle Irvin! I will leave you in... 2 minutes if you're ass is not seated on this car!" My eyes widened and I ran faster than when I'm in gym glass. When I opened the door to my room, I was breathless, my hands were supporting my knees. I need to be more active. I saw it sparkling beneath the sun that was hitting my window, it looked so pretty. I gabbed it from my nightstand and looked at the vanity mirror. I parted my hair in the middle and pined it on the right side of my hair. I smiled at the mirror, but then I saw the clock at my peripheral view and I only have a few seconds. I already heard the cat start and it just increased the panic that was forming in my chest.

I rushed out of my room, locked the door, slid down the railings, then out to the front door. My dad was backing out of the garage. And I have to shout and flail my hands around for him to notice me. "Wait!" I shouted breathlessly. My dad stopped the car and I can already feel the anger and sermon that's about to come.
