A Time to forget
"Time does not heal all wounds, but rather it causes the mind to forget the pain of those wounds."
Skye exited her car and stole a quick glance around. For a small town it was easy to get lost in Forks! Skye had spent the better half of the morning just driving around the town, looking for the small secluded dance studio that she had applied to work for. It was a sort of industrial building. One that looked like it was a factory a long time before. She started walking towards the tall brick building, slipping on the ice in the process. Skye grumbled as she started to get up. It was cloudy in Forks!. Suddenly there was a woman hovering above her. She was short with short black hair that extended in all different directions. She offered her had towards Skye with a kind look on her face. Skye accepted her hand gratefully. "Tank-You, you have no idea how embarrassing that was" Skye said. "What was embarrassing?" asked the strange short woman, and Skye gave her a grateful smile. "My name is Alice. Alice Cullen" She said extending her hand again. " You must be new here. I would remember a pretty face like yours" Alice complimented, causing Skye to blush. It was true she was beautiful she had long black hair that reached her knees, and emerald green eyes that were clear, not cloudy like most peoples eyes were. Skye also had a very pale completion, a true green. "I'm Skye. Skye Tomadachi" Skye said shaking Alice's had. It shocked Skye to feel her hand so cold. Well it is cold out Skye thought to herself. "So what are you doing here?" asked Alice. "Well I'm a new teacher here. I teach ballet." Alice's eyes sparked with interest. "what you interested in joining?" asked Skye as the two women walked in to the dance studio. It may have been ugly on the outside but it was amazing on the inside. Actual leather chairs, a nice polished black marble top desk with top of the line computers. There were three dance studios. Each extremely large with tall mirrors and a bar that extended all the way around. "Wow" breathed Skye as she took in the site of the dance studio. Her Dance studio. Skye felt immense pleasure and pride rise up in her. It wasn't England but it WAS pretty nice. "So" said Alice "I'm thinking of signing up a few people for Ballet. When are the classes?" Asked Alice. "Hmmm…Well there is a class everyday…what age group?" "Adult" "Ok well we have classes Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights from 8-10" "That's perfect" Alice exclaimed "where do I sign?" Skye produced a clipboard from behind the desk. "Sign here and here and here, and that going to cost you $250 per semester…How many people are you signing up?" "Two" replied Alice pulling out her credit card for her purse. Skye hadn't noticed that she was wearing one, it was a Gucci hand bag, one of the new ones. One that Skye had coveted since it came out. Alice noticed Skye's hungry gaze and looked at her purse. "You like it?" Asked Alice. Skye nodded. "Here you can have it" Alice said throwing the handbag at Skye. Her eyes widened in disbelief. She was speechless. Alice laughed "I was going to donate it anyway…think it as a token of friendship" And with that Alice left gracefully out the dance studios door. Skye stood for a moment in shocked silence before she began squealing and jumping around wildly. She had never hoped to make a new Rich friend on her first day in forks. This was going to be a wonderful day.
