In the dark: Found
Chapter one
New town, new friends, new guys.
"We are not going to change," I tried to comfort my friends.
"Well everything will be different," Hollie argued. The red head and the leader of the group never went down without a fight. She sat on the grass staring at me. I felt her green eyes fill with tears as she tried to stay strong.
"Yeah, what she said!" The other two girls joined in. I looked at them both, Jane with her long blond hair and dark blue eyes that were filled with tears that were streaming down her cheeks. Maria long shinny black hair fell to her shoulders in tight ringlets.
"Gabriella!" My Mum shouted. "Come help me with your luggage!"
"Okay!" I yelled as I got up and walked into the house. After half an hour everything was in the van and mum was ready to leave, but I wasn't sure if I was. I let out a sigh of regret. I could have stayed with my dad here, but I didn't want to. I should, but I don't want to.
"Gabriella are you ok?" Hollie asked placing her hand on my back.
"I'm fine, just sad that I'm leaving that's all," I said with a sad smile.
"We'll see each other again and soon Gabi, I promise," All four of us hugged. I got into the car, put my seatbelt on and waved at my friends through the opened window. "Bye" I yelled as we drove round the corner.
Later that night we arrived in Albuquerque. I walked up the stairs and sat in what will be from now on my bedroom. I watched the removal men walk up and down the stairs repeatedly carrying furniture and boxes. I lay on my bed and slowly closed my eyes.
I woke up to the smell of freshly baked pancakes. The sun glistened through the rain drops. 'Must have rained last night' I thought to myself. I followed the smell to fine three people sitting at the dining room table.
"Gabriella, this is Taylor and her mum, Janice," My mum said as she greeted me.
"Hello," I said with a slight wave, confused as to why they were here so early.
"Your mum and I are now working together and when she said she had a daughter I thought you should meet Taylor. She can help you get to know the village and school," Janice said.
"Yeah if you want me to that is," Taylor said with a welcoming smile.
"That would be wonderful," I said smiling back. I sat next to her at the table. "Gabriella,"
"Taylor," We shook hands and ate breakfast.
Later that day Taylor showed me around the village. We got to the centre.
"This is the park. Over there the kids play and then the sports facilities are over there," she said pointing to the play park. When she pointed to the basketball court I saw some who was beyond beautiful, he was playing a two on two game and seemed to be making his team win. Who was he? And why was he so beautiful? We left the park and got lunch after two more hours we parted and went to our own houses.
"Taylor's nice," My mum said at tea time.
"Yeah she is, I think I can get through school now I know someone,"
I washed up and went to my room. I plugged in my headphones and closed my eyes. "Over there the kids play and then the sports facilities are over there," that scene from today replayed and replayed in my mind. I couldn't get his face from my head. He was so beautiful.
The next day
"Gabriella!" I heard a familiar voice shout from behind me. I turned around to find Taylor running after me. "Hey I called you like ten times,"
"Sorry I must have been in my own little world," I said smiling as Taylor caught her breath.
"Well this is Home Room so I think we should go in," We entered the room and sat down. I glanced at the window and back at the door to see him walking through. I couldn't help but stare at him. His hands held his books and car keys to what looked like an expensive car. A bold and red glass ring was placed on one of his fingers. I looked up at his face and there was the most perfect smile ever, his lips looked perfect, his hair fell over his eyes. He pushed his hair to the side to reveal crystal blue eyes. They were beautiful.
"Gabriella?" A faint voice came from behind. "Gabriella!" I turned around. "Off in your own little dream world again?"
"Yeah sorry," I said as a glanced over at him once again to find him looking in my direction. I looked behind me and to the side to see no one else there. I glanced back at him, I could feel his eyes look at me, suddenly this character went from beautiful to scary in one second.
