Scarlett days

A Chapter by Allie

Allie moves from dreary Michigan, to sunny flordia, meets new friends, and her new crush!

I opened one eye to find out it was 6:30 am. "OH MY GOD IM GONNA BE LATE FOR SCHOOL!!" I said jumping up grabbing some clothes. " SHUT UP! SOME PEOPLE ARE STILL TRYING TO SLEEP!" my little sister yelled pelting a pillow at my face. "ok im sorry for waking you, Alex." I said quietly. "Hph" She said, then shut my door. I quickly got dressed into my London shirt and black skinny jeans, then put on my black DC's. I ran down the stairs, but with my luck fell at the last one. " You've had those legs for how many years now?" My brother Jason said. "17.." I said getting up. " And yet you still trip over them." He said. "shut up" I said. I picked up my book bag and headed out the front door. I got into my 1971 Ford Mustang that belonged to my father. It was a cherry red with a black stripe down the middle.

When I stopped at a red light, I saw one of those army man handing out the little red poppies. I gave him a 5 because I had no other money in my pockets, and I was feeling generous. Then the light turned green. I drove down the street and pulled up into my schools parking lot. I jumped out of my car and walked over to the passenger side and picked up my book bag. Once I got my book bag I walked over to my friend's car. She had a 2008 Cadillac that was silver. "Oh hey Allie" she said. "Um hi" I said. "Ready for that test in science?" she asked "Uh yea" I said.

I walked into my school. Did I mention how big it is? I got lost in it 6 times this year alone. I just moved into this neighborhood 5 weeks ago. I already had 2 amazing friends. I walked to my locker and put in my combination. " 23,35,12" I said to myself, then pulled on the lock. But it wouldn’t open. "F**k, its stuck again." I said quietly. I looked at the locker next to me. It was a brunette boy. I think his name was Logan. "Um can you help me?" I asked quietly. He looked up. "Oh, sure" he said nicely. "what’s your combination? If you don’t mind me asking" He said looking at my lock. "Uh, 23, 35,12" I said. He put in the numbers and pulled at the lock. It unlocked once he pulled. "Thanks" I said. " No problem" He said then opened up his locker. I got all my books then hurried to homeroom.

Someone pushed out there chair when I walked in, which caused me to trip. A emo boy grabbed my waist so at least I didn’t hit the floor. Once I got back to my feet, the emo boy let go of me and sat back down at his seat. I sat down next to my friend Janiya. " Hey Allie, What’s up with your eyes?" She asked. "what do you mean?" I said. She pulled out her compact mirror from her purse and handed it to me. I quickly opened it up. I wanted to see what she was talking about. In the compact mirror, I looked my eyes. Instead of being a periwinkle blue, they were a golden yellow. Then back to blue. I let out a very faint squeal. What the hell was going on? "Are you alright?" she asked. "Yea. J-Just fine." I lied. She gave me one of her "your a really crazy person" smile. I gave her a halfhearted smile back. I looked at the clock. I had to go to core one. I gave Janiya back her mirror and headed out the door.

I went to science and sat down in my normal seat, in front of the class. "Hey!" A guy said. It was the dude from this morning, that helped me open up my locker. I put my books down at my desk, then walked over to him. “yes?” I asked. “want to sit back here?” he asked gesturing to the seat next to where his books were. “Uh no thanks.” I said. Then the emo boy walked in and went to the teachers desk to show her his late pass. I put my head down then quickly walked to my desk.

“Ok class.” the teacher said clapping her hands together. “Today’s the test please get out a number two pencil.” she said then walked back to her desk to get the tests. I got out my number two pencil. “No talking during the test, once you get it you may begin.” She said then handed out the tests. It may have took me maybe 30, 40 minutes to finish it. I jumped out of my chair and walked back to the teachers desk. I handed in my test to my teacher. As I walked back to my desk I looked to my right, to see the emo boy staring at me. The he shook his head then looked back at his test. I quickly scurried back to my desk.

After science we went to lunch. At lunch I sat in my normal spot. When I got up to get my lunch, the emo boy was standing in front of me. “Ok Allie, be strong, just.. don’t make eye contact.” I thought to myself. I looked at the ground. He turned around. He bent down under my head so I could actually see his face. “ Why hello” he said cracking a smile. I shut my eyes tightly. “Hi” I said. “This is a very nice way to talk to someone.” He commented. “Thanks” I said. I opened up one eye. He wasn’t under me. I looked up. He was know where around me! Then there was a tap on my shoulder. I slowly turned around. It was him. I put my hand to my head. “what do you want?” I asked. “at least a thank you from saving your life this morning” he said. “ I was going to die, So how exactly did you ‘save my life’.” I asked.” from humiliation and embarrassment” he said. “ like that isn’t every day of my life already” I said

I decided I didn’t want lunch, especially with that dude bothering me, so I just walked casually back to my table. But for my luck, he just followed me back. “got any friends?” he asked. “ Just 2, but they don’t sit with me.” I answered. “Hmm, I’ll sit with you1” he said. “ No, no” I said. “what? Not a fan of the Goth group?” he asked. “No its not….” I began to say but he interrupted. “ Because im not to fond of the goody two shoes type, but I made an exception” he said. I sat there. Just took it in. “sorry” he said looking down fiddling with his hands. “I guess I’ll make an exception.” I said. He looked up. “but im not a goody two shoes damn it!” I said. “You kind of are” he said. “ And you’re a weird emo boy that just looks and follow‘s girls around!” I said. He looked shocked. “ Im sorry!” I said. He looked away then looked down. Did I really hurt him that badly? I didn’t know what to do. My instincts kicked in and out of nowhere I hugged him. He tensed up, but hugged me back. “I said I was sorry” I said. Then I broke up the hug.

After a couple more boring classes I walked back out to my car. I sat in the drivers seat. I had to think about my life. “why out of all boys, must I like the emo one?” I asked myself. Then there was a knock at my door. I slowly looked up at the person. “OH MY GOD!” I yelled. It was the emo boy. AGAIN! I opened up my door after I was done with my little freak attack. “Yes?” I said. “Can I sit in your car, its to cold out here to talk.” he asked. “Um, I, I” I said then I looked into his big blue eyes. “Uh, sure” I said. He walked his way around to the passengers side. He opened up the door. “Thanks.” he said blowing into his hands then rubbing them together. “Would you like me to turn on the heat?” I asked. He nodded. I turned my car on and made the heat come on and then I fiddled with my hands. “Im fang, I never properly introduced myself did I?” he said. “No you didn’t. but im Allie.” I said. “In my case, is it ok if I called you, Blade?” he asked. “What a cute pet name” I said sarcastically . “ I know its not usual for you, but it is for me.” he said. I nodded. I looked at his left wrist, were a tattoo took place. I grabbed his wrist and brought it over to me were I could see it better. It looked like cursive. I rolled up his jacket to see more of it. What it said was “Blades” I think. “What’s this about?” I asked. “My old girlfriend legally turned her name to blades and made me get a tattoo of it. Its nothing really” he said. “is that why you want to call me blade?” I asked. “No, well yea I guess” he said. “Blade?” he said. I looked at him. “Yes?” I said. He had thick black hair. He put one hand on the back of my neck. “Oh no! Not this please not this.” I yelled inside my head. Fang slowly leaned in. “just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight” my phone went off. “THANK HEAVEN PRAISE THE LORDS” I yelled inside my head. It was my friend Alixx. He’s been my best guy friend since 2^nd grade. “Hey Alixx!” I said happily answering my cell. “Hey. You need to come home” Alixx said. “Why?” I asked. Alixx explained to me what happened. Then and there, in front of my crush, I dropped my cell phone and busted out crying.
