For Ever lasting by Tiffany Poubel (story read aloud .txt) 📕

I felt his ice cold finger trail down from my for head to my chin, he leaned in closer and kissed my lips softly, I couldn’t breath he ;iterally took my breath away. He looked into my eyes ,his beautiful light amber eyes just beaming back at me I couldn’t move I was to afraid if I did he would leave,that if I moved he would get distracted and realize how dumb he was for just kissing me. “love couldn’t even discribe how I feel for you Kalani, but this is too dangerous for you and I both”.
“Kalani”
“Kalani, wake up”
“its time for you to go to school, Kalani WAKE UP!!”.
“ok aunt jade im getting up!”.
As I got up to turn on the shower # 1 I was pissed that I got woken up ,#2 I was pissed that I got woken up from an amazing dream and #3 I got pissed at how the dream ended,what could that possibly mean?, “but its to dangerous for you and I both?” whats so dangerous about us being together,which brings me to #4 it was only just a dream,of course jullian would never even think about me n him together I mean c’mon hes the new kid and all the girls , the pretty,popular girls were practically throwing them selves at him.when I got out the shower I threw on the clothes I picked out last night for me to wear today for school. I was already running late so I grabed a cereal bar and ran out to my car. On my way to school all I kept thinking was about that dream I couldn’t get it out of my head. I don’t know why I kept thinking about it, its not like it will ever come true anyways. I mean ive only talked to jullian maybe once or twice before since he moved here in wicker park a month ago. I live in a small rich town in the center of conneticiut, with my jade ,ive been living wit her for about two years,my parents and I were in a tradgic accident that killed them both instantly and I survived. People don’t bother me at school,guess its cuz they feel bad for me so they just leave me alone,I like it better that way anyways.im not a people person I like to be left alone and that’s why I like living with my aunt jade she gives me my space. Shes a divorce attorney so I don’t really get to see much of her any ways ,only wen she annoyingly wakes me up in the mourning.I finally pull up to school I turn off the engine and I take a deep breath before I open my door and start my day. I gather my books and head to main double doors , and then I see him!
I head into my class which he should be following behind me as well because 1st and 6th period I have with him. I quickly take my seat and try not to make it obvious that I was just looking at him 2 seconds ago. I grab my english lititure book and flip to chapter 8 because we will begin todays assignment talking about shakespere. I knew that because I can read minds,ever since the accident ive been able too .when I woke up from surgery that day, the dr didn’t have to tell me about my parents I already knew.i guess when you lose the most important people in ur life, you gain a gift.well I really wouldn’t call it a gift its quite annoying hearing everyones thoughts,I mean I like my space and privacy so I try to give everyone just that, I recently learned how to block peoples thoughts, but some peoples thoughts are louder than others. But the only persons thought who are with held from me are jullians, and hes the only persons brain I wish I could pick at.i don’t kno wat it is exactly about the accident that I gained this power maybe it was the impact of my head smashing against the window or ive considered the surgery its self but alls I know is that sometimes I regret having the ability to read peoples thoughts. I havent told any one of course because people would think im crazy.the bell rang and mr. lombardi quickly rushed in.
We learned a little bit about shakespere and his infamous poems and playwrights. Othello,mcbeth,etc.Mr. L wanted us to pair up in partners and wright a poem. We had til Friday to finish it and we would start presenting the follwing Monday .jullian pulls his desk up to me and asks, “did you already have a partner in mind?”. I could feel my face burning up , I replied nonchalantly, “no I didn’t,did you?”. Wow how could I be so stupid to ask him that I am such an idiot! “ya actually,I had you in mind.i seen the way you already had your book turned to the exact chapter before Mr. Lombardi came in, seems like you have this english class on lock huh?”I don’t kno if I should be mad that he could possibly be using me for my great knowledge or if I should be happy that he was noticing me to begin with. “ya english is my thing”. Ohh my god really kalani english is my thing? You couldve said something better than that! “well since english is your “thing” and clearly english isnt mines,would you be my partner and maybe you can teach me how to make english my thing?”. I wish I could hear what he was thinking right now. You didn’t have to read minds to kno what I was feeling you could clearly see the shock in my face. “is that a yes or…………………” “yes , I will be you’re your partner”. He sighs. “great I cant wait to finally ace something in this class, I was just kidding i actually get really good grades in this class”. Confused I responded back “I thought you said english wasn’t your thing?” “well………….i kinda lyed about that I actually wanted you to be my partner and since you already agreed to it there is no turning back now”. I actually wanted you to be my partner;those words just kept running through my head until I got interrupted by the bell. “ill see you in 6th period art class, we will talk more about the project there”. He hadnt gave me a chance to respond back to his first statement so I just said “ok”.
2nd – 5th period seemed to go by so slow,the anticipation to see him again and this time knowing that I am going to have a full blown conversation with him sent chills down my spine.i got to art class and sat down where I normally do, by myself which I like because I have the whole table to myself.jullian comes and sits right across from me at my table he puts down his things along with a water bottle that’s filled with dark red juice that almost looks like blood,I flinched just at the thought of the word blood.i just cant help but look at him,his light emerald eyes,his perfect tan and his perfectly brushed back dark hair,his beauty,it amazes me everytime. “hey kalani”. “hi jullian”. Our teacher hands everybody a huge piece of paper and tells us to draw what we r thinking, it would have been a lot easier if I had just told her what eveyone was thinking but I wasn’t going to put myself out there like that.i can feel jullian staring at me but I just keep drawing at first I started drawing what I was thinking, then I bent the rules and started drawing what ever came to me.when I looked down at my paper to see what ive came up with I was a little confused at what I saw. I drew a black crystal with gold spots all over it.jullian looks at what I drew and says, “wow that’s crazy!”………… “what do you mean?” “well that looks like the same exact stone I have on my ring,how did you know that I had this ring when I never once seen you looking at my hand?” he does have a point there, out of all the times I looked at him. talked to him, or even dreamed about him I never once noticed that ring on his finger. “I didn’t know that you had that ring, I just drew wat came to mind”…. “well it seems to me like I was on your mind sweet heart”. Did he just call me sweet heart? The only time I ever get called sweet heart is normally from an adult and hes about the same age, so what does he think hes from a different time or something? To be honest I don’t even kno what to say back to that, switching the subject I say “so about that project?” “ya so about that,well I was thinking…..maybe if you weren’t busy we could start the project after school ,the sooner the better and the faster we’ll be done”….. “ya that sounds good I have nothing planned any ways”. I lied I had a couple arrands to run for my aunt since she wasn’t around a lot I did the food shopping and since I didn’t have work I told her I would go to the super market today. That would all have to wait if jullian was asking me to hangout with him outside of school even if it was school related you couldn’t pass it up even im that stupid enough to reject his invitation.he takes a swig of his juice and I cant help but ask what it was , it looked so unappetizing to me. “what is that, that your drinking?” “well it’s a home made recipe its vitamin enriched drink and it gives me a boost of energy” he quickly and sneekishly puts it in his back pack. Something tells me its not at all wat he said it was,but all that doesn’t matter the only thing that matters is that im hanging with jullian after school. I thought this day would never come. The more I talked to him the less embarrassed I felt and the more comfortable felt. He sighs then says, “I think we should go to the library to do some research on shakespere before we wright it so our poem turns out to be the best in our class”. “ok that sounds good to me”. “good, so we’ll take my car because there is no way im bein seen a lime green punch buggie , no offense”. I couldn’t help but laugh. “none taking”.
After school I was skimming through the parking lot to see if I could find him. No sign of Julian, as I turn around he’s right there in my face, I jump. “Hey, didn’t mean to scare you but are you ready?” damn was he behind me the whole time? No I would’ve seen him. I cant pin point exactly what it is, but there’s something extremely odd about him. “Yeah I’m ready”. We walk over to his car and he opens the door for me. My heart instantly melts, you can never find a guy now and days that does that anymore. He starts his car and off to the library we go. I look around the car trying to think of what to say, I see he has another water bottle in his cup holder, how could he drink something that looks so similar to blood, ewww! “I see you another
