Chapter. 1 Getting Ready (The Dream)
When I woke up, I looked beside me and all I saw was Elle, my sister.
“Five more minutes,” I groaned.
“No, it’s the first day and you’re getting up.”
“I was up practicing my cheer, please just five.”
“Fine.” She left, and I knew I was being annoying so I got up.
I had gone shopping last week for a new wardrobe, just for school. While going through my clothes my mind wandered to my dream, so far I’ve had it every night and couldn’t get over it.
It was sunny outside and I was out in my new Old Navy Sundress, I’m at the lake sitting on a bench with my sister. I hear guys laughing, and self-conscious as I am, I look up to make sure it wasn’t at me. I look up and a blond guy looks at me and our eyes lock. The second they do my body feels like millions of bolts of electricity have been sent through me. Then I look down trying to deceiver this feeling, but I regret it. When I look up again and see him, he’s looking away talking to some brunette guy. My heart is still beating fast from the pain until Elle looked over with her perfect, tan complexion and concern in her eyes which are framed with perfect lashes, that I am jealous of, and I want to slap her for having them, but that goes away when she starts speaking.
“Aqua what’s wrong?” I didn’t even respond because I was in a trance staring at his perfected blonde hair. Stupid me, I thought to love someone I didn’t know that was probably laughing at how I blushed when he looked at me, though I was wearing some blush so he couldn’t pin it on that. “Aqua what’s wrong?!?!” She said it so loud; I knew she must have yelled it out because he turned to look.
I recover fast, as always and lie, “Nothing.” I realize I’m still looking at him as he walks over. I look down and hear him get down on the ground. He gently and very slowly grabs my chin, and lifts my face.
“You okay?” his eyes are full of concern, and my heart flutters wildly. I was moved by how he cared for me. I looked at him and we locked eyes, my blush concealing the real one I could feel warming my cheeks, and then I felt a smile break over my face.
“Umm.” I tried to find my voice as fast as possible. “I’m fine. I just scraped my hand getting my purse, I do that sometimes.” I, still smiling, laughed a bit at its truth. He lifted my hand, and there was an actual cut there. I frowned at it, knowing that it must have done it when all my stress and fears came back, he was frowning to. I hated seeing him frown, it looked wrong on his face. I want; no I needed him to smile.
“What’s your name? I’m Oskan,” Oskan said interrupting my thoughts.
“I’m Aqua.” I mumbled his name, though he didn’t hear, I was uncharacteristically having a lot of luck. He took my hand and led me to his car while I followed. While I waited, he got into it thrusting another glance at me emerged with a coat and a Band-Aid. He put the Band-Aid on my hand and handed me the coat, he must have seen me shivering. I couldn’t break the smile on my face and didn’t realize I’d stopped breathing until I got dizzy. I loved that the last thing I saw was his smile, the one that matched his angelic features.
My review of the dream and my thoughts of it stopped as I found my first day outfit, remarkably only taking a few minutes to find. It was a beautiful Max Azria dress a teal-blue color with a black tie around the back; I paired it with my new three quarter sleeve shrug, and a cute pair of flats, my friend Jenna was bringing my earrings. I was walking to the kitchen for breakfast, when I saw my sister going to the bathroom with some putrid looking clothing on her arm.
I grabbed her arm, “What are you doing?” I questioned.
“Taking a shower and then getting dressed,” I looked at the sweats and the plain tee on her arm as I rolled my eyes and sighed, I just bought her beautiful new clothes for school. I took them away and shushed her as she began to protest. I grabbed a better outfit while she went into her bathroom for a shower and put the disgusting one where it should go, in the trash. When she got out and I knew she had a towel on I knocked lightly.
“I’ve got your clothes.” I told her as I walked into our small, yet going to be expanded bathroom. I gave her a very cute blue and black plaid skirt with black lace around the bottom, but gave her black tights to wear underneath to make her more comfortable. I also gave her identical flats and a plain blue shirt with a black undershirt for her.
“Ten minutes to get dressed then I’m doing something about your hair.” I smiled and pushed back a loose lock of my golden blonde hair out of my face. I left and took down the hot curlers while she dressed and sprayed a bit of my hairspray into my hair. Then, of course, I walked back.
“I like it. You look nice except for the curly hair.” She said jokingly, but smiling letting me know I looked good.
“Well I know that you don’t like curly hair, but I do. I’ll straighten yours though, you’re going to wear a black bow and I’m wearing a blue one. So just hold still, so I don’t burn you while I fix your hair. After I was done, I did both of our makeup. Black eye-liner, all around with simple blue shadow for her but mine was a beautiful blue smoky eye emphasizing my eyes. I also put on foundation and mascara, even though Elle says I look better without foundation, I think it gives me a beautiful photo-finish. We grabbed our binders and left. We didn’t talk though; we never did during school and waiting for the bus counted as school.
Chapter 2 My first day of the torture they call school
When I got on the bus, I immediately smiled at my friends in the back of bus. “I’m back!” I shouted happily at them.
“Hey girl!” of course was their response, I was the leader of our hive, our girl mafia.
I noticed that Sapphire was back. I couldn’t be mean, that wasn’t me, but Elle would be peeved if I wasn’t. I guess we’ll have to be friends for now, besides it was Elle’s fault in a way.
“So who here is trying out for cheerleading with me?”, I asked, knowing they would all raise their hands and shout “Duh!”, it was kind of a ritual, and they followed through.
“Where are my earrings Jenna?” I asked suspicious that she threw them away for the more pretty real pair.
“Well… I couldn’t stand it! I had to buy you the real diamonds! They look the same though!!”
“That’s fine. I knew you would. So who here has the latest fashions, makeup, and perfume in their room right now?”
“We all do Aqua, why do you ask us still?” asked Brooke.
“Because, it’s like a clique ritual, duh”, I said. I glanced at my sister who was talking to some guys. Good for her, she’s making friends. And a cute one to, wait I couldn’t think that, I didn’t know them, and Elle needed them.
“So who is dating who?” I asked, curious, but not just about them, about Elle’s friends to.
“I’m dating Zach.” Jenna said. Of course you are, all last year you were in love and then you hated him for cheating, off and on like a switch.
“I’m dating Nick.” Brenna said.
“And I’m dating Cody. Who are you dating?” asked Brooke.
“I’m dating Jake, I finally said yes to the movies last Friday.”
“Then why is he talking to your sister, and some new guy instead of being over here with you?” Sapphire asked.
“I let him talk to others freely; no one wants to be clingy, besides its girl time right now.” I lied, though I knew it hurt to see that, and how I didn’t have anyone else to date if he dumped me. No one else interested me at the moment. The rest of our conversation was stuff just like that, but a bit different. Then we were at school and I pushed the thoughts away as Jake carried my stuff for me and I made my entrance, the last off, shouting my signature line as I got off to my friends, who had already arrived.
“I’m back!” I was greeted with many squeals, hugs, and guys staring at my beauty as usual. Then because I felt bad for excluding her I walked over to my sister.
“Who’s this?” I asked teasing her as I got closer.
“This is … Rye.” She seemed hesitant, but I assume that that was just her being nervous, because all of my friends were there. He nodded to me, and stepped closer to my sister as if I was going to steal her or something which bugged me but I just put it off as nerves.
“I’m guessing this is the famous Aqua I’ve heard so much about.” He said, while my sister proceeded to nod and smile at his joke. Little does he know that really is the truth around here. Everyone talks about me like I’m a celebrity, he hung around Jake so he probably heard about me when I said yes to him.
“Not from her, I’m guessing.” I said, nodding towards Elle. My friends started to whisper and giggle behind me, I frowned knowing that they were talking about her.
“Nope. She doesn’t talk too much when other people come around. And when we do talk it’s never about herself.” He said, this bugged me who does he thinks he is trying to fill me in on my own sister, and who is he trying to impress knowing a bunch of crap about my sister?
“I’m standing right here! I’m so sick of everyone talking about me! Get a life, and stop bugging me about mine! I’m fine! You want to know about me? I’m 15, my favorite colors green, when I’m in the water you can’t get me out, I love it outside, I sing to escape reality, I haven’t had a boyfriend for three years, my last friend stopped talking to me a year and a half ago, everyone thinks I’m crazy and I don’t care, and I wish everyone would just leave me alone!” My sister exploded, and she had started to cry half way in but I don’t think she noticed. Her new friend Rye was staring at her with his mouth open, and some feeling that looked like pain in his eyes that bugged me. It’s not like they’re dating, why does he care, besides what? Does he think that he can just waltz right in and freaking knows what she’s like? I’m the one who has to help her not him.
She took a calming breath as I hugged her and whispered over and over, “It’s going to be ok.” Her breathing slowly became more even and I knew she was calm now, plus she got out of the hug, and wiped her eyes, a
