I couldn't believe how childish she was. Yes, I again got in an argument with the drama queen Mrs. Lovett. It's not my fault she keeps being so nosy all the time. I fell in my bed and let out an annoyed sigh.
,, I just wish I could get away from her far, far away… I need a break from her.'' I mumbled, while staring at the ceiling.
I closed my eyes and fell in a deep sleep.
I woke up again and it was morning. I opened my eyes and realized that the ceiling's different. The bed seemed softer too. I sat up in the bed and took a look around the room I was in.
It wasn't my barbershop anymore.
I was in a light room, with sandy wallpapers and a lamp, but I couldn't see the candle. There was a glass bubble with metal wires in it. I furrowed my brows and rose up. My feet met soft velvet like carpet instead of the old wooden plank floor I remembered.
I looked out the window and saw people, rushing around the streets, but they were dressed differently.
I couldn't see any puffy dresses, suits, or carriages anymore. The people here were dressed such revealing clothing. They men were wearing shirts with short sleeves and pants, that looked like the legs were cut off. The girls were wearing the same style shirts, short, revealing skirts, dresses in many lengths and sneakers, sandals some wore high heels, but these were a different style, height and all of them revealed the feet.
I was convinced that I was dreaming, when I saw her; it was a girl.
But she was so beautiful.
She had golden yellow hair, friendly blue eyes, a sweet smile and she was wearing a peachy pink dress to her knees and matching pink high heels. She looked just like my Lucy. She was walking with two more girls.
One to her right was a bit taller than her and her fire red curls shined in the sun. She had friendly warm, chocolate brown eyes and a friendly smile too. She was wearing a light grey, shirt, that looked like it was a bit too big for her, blue shorts and black sneakers.
The other girl was a brunet. She had greenish blue eyes and freckles. She was wearing a white dress with red and pink roses on it and flip-flops.
They all were heading down to a small park.
I don't know why, but something made me want to speak to the girl, who looked like Lucy. I got dressed and headed out the door.
I was a bit confused.
I was in the middle of a long hallway with many doors, which had numbers on them. Mine had number 14 on it. I looked around and saw the numbers going down to zero, so I followed that direction until I came to big stairs.
I went down and I was greeted by smiling women and men in same color uniforms and a big waiting room. I started to think, that this is a hotel or something, but I was feeling so lost here I couldn't tell what was what.
I headed out the big glass door and was greeted by a big heat wave.
No wonder the people here were dressing so revealing and plain. I looked around and saw them going down stone staircase in the park. I followed them and hoped not to lose them out if my sight so I can ask where the hell I am.
I noticed that the people here were giving me strange looks and whispering something to each other. I ignored that and went down the next stairs.
I saw them stopping at the fountain so the redhead could tie her shoe. I started to walk a bit faster to catch up.
I was almost there, when the waved to someone in the distance and started running.
I cursed under my breath and kept walking.
I stopped at a large bush and saw them running to a plot with ramps and guys on some weird vehicles.
The girls ran to a gang of guys and hugged them, but three of them even got a kiss. They must be their boyfriends apparently.
,, Bunny rabbit!'' The redhead kissed the paler, black haired guy.
,, Hey, cupcake. What's new?'' He smiled offering a seat next to him.
,, Nothing much. You?''
,, The same.'' He sighed.
She smiled and leaned against his side.
The brunette walked over to the tallest guy and rose on her tip toes and kissed him.
,, Hey Nauri!'' She smiled widely at him.
,, Hey, babe. You coming to the BMX tournament this Friday?''
She frowned a little:,, Oh, I would love to, but I promised the girls to got to the dance competition. When does it start?''
,, At three.''
She smiled again:,, Well, then I'll be there and after that I'll go to the dance competition.''
They all nodded and the blonde noticed the blond guy on the ramps and waved:,, Hey, Horen!''
The guy noticed the girl when he was flying in the air with this so called BMX and forgot to hold on to the steer and fell.
They all gasped and the blonde ran to him:,, Omg, Horen, are you alright?''
She kneeled on the ground and let him rest his head on her knee. She looked down at him and kissed him.
,, Well, I am now.'' He smiled.
She giggled and kissed him again, helping him get up. He limped a little back to the bench and sat down.
,, Dude, you should be more careful next time.'' The dark haired guy said, lightly patting his shoulder.
,, I know, I know…'' He sighed.
I was amazed by the beauty of this young blonde, when I noticed the last moment that the redhead was looking at me or at least this direction and hid behind the bushes.
,, Is it just me or did I actually saw Sweeney Todd behind those bushes…'' She quietly said.
,, What? You really have to stop watching that movie and writing stories, girl.'' The blonde shook her head patting her shoulder.
,, Oh, I gotta go. See you later?'' The redhead asked, looking at her watch in a black thin box with no buttons or anything (phone).
The dark haired boy frowned:,, Aw… Shame you're going so soon, but I'll drop by your house later?''
She nodded and kissed him and rose up waving goodbyes and went my direction.
I started to run out of time to find a new hiding spot, but I just couldn't find any.
I started to think of a plan, when I felt a hand on my shoulder and a soft:,, Excuse me, sir, but…'' behind me.
I turned around and saw her. She looked scared yet exited to see me.
,, It's really you…'' She whispered.
I raised an eyebrow:,, You know me?''
She giggled:,, Who does not know the famous Sweeney Todd also know as… Mr. Benjamin Barker…''
I froze in my spot.
She knew everything about me, but how?
She reminded me of Mrs. Lovett for a second. That red hair, brown eyes, warm smile… What was I doing?!
I snapped out of it and asked quietly:,, Where am I anyways?''
She giggled and smiled widely as she proudly pronounced:,, You, my dear friend are in Cesis, Latvia…''
Latvia?!
How far from London was I?
,, And what date it is?'' I was so unsure of this place.
,, Wednesday, June 26, 2013, why ya' askin'?'' She smiled.
Wait… 2013?!
That's a completely different century! I paled just thinking how far in the future I am.
,, You okay?'' She softly asked, taking my hand.
I looked at her hand and then back at her.
She blushed and let go my hand.
,, I'm fine, thank you.'' I quietly mumbled trying to keep a cool mind.
She cleared her throat and said:,, Well, I must get going…''
She turned around and started walking, when I took her hand and stopped her:,, Will I ever see you again?''
She turned around and looked at me with a light pink shade on her cheeks:,, You might find me if you like. Around May Street I wouldn't wonder…''
And with that she left.
Suddenly the blonde nor Lucy wasn't on my mind.
I was amazed by this girl. I looked after her until she disappeared from my sight.
I sighed and rewind everything she said to me until I remembered what she said:,, You might find me if you like. Around May Street I wouldn't wonder…''
She sounded like me, only… cuter.
I shook my head and went back to the hotel and fell in my bed, thinking where the heck this May Street is. I really needed to know more about this town and while I'm at it, know this girl's name.
I couldn't sleep so I did the usual, paced around the room, looking out the window. I looked at the clock on the wall and it was 2:53, but there still were people walking around, living their nightlife.
I couldn't take the heat that went through my head to my spine and then spread all over my body, so I decided to take a walk around town.
I noticed another shadow behind me, when I heard a man's voice:,, Give me your money and no one gets hurt.''
I didn't say anything, but look at the shop's window and saw him; a tall, muscular man with a knife.
I smirked and reached for my friends and sharply turned around, wearing my maniac's smirk as I swung them open in a single swing.
The thief paled and dropped the sack, attacking me, but I predicted that and moved out of the way, so I pressed him against the wall by his throat.
,, Look, dude, I'm sorry. Just don't kill me…'' He pleaded.
I chuckled and took a big swing and slit his throat.
I let him go and watched as he collapsed on the pavement, lifeless.
I cleaned my razors in his shirt and said to them:,, Good work, my friends…''
I went back to the hotel and went to my room, where I fell in the bed and slept like that till 12 'o clock.
To be continued...
So I had this idea, last night and I said to myself:,, Hey, why not put in a story?'' So I did :) Tell me what do you think and stay tuned for the next chapter! ^_^
