A/N: Ok so this is my first fanfic. It's not that long. Just a little teaser. I'm hoping to get a few reviews so tell me if you like it and if i should continue on with the story. My friend Amanda helped me with some of the names and my friend Rachel proofed it. Thanks!
*Disclaimer* I don't own the general idea of the soulmate principle. That all goes to the brilliant L.J Smith. I do however own all names in this chapter
Beeep Beeep Beeep
I groaned and felt around for the alarm. I slammed my hand down on the alarm button and went back to sleep.
I remember! Remember what you did to Marnie…
I woke up to the sound of "Night Surgeon" from Repo playing from my phone. I picked it up and answered it.
"What?" I asked in a deep, annoyed voice.
"Okay, Alucard much? Anyway, Alexandra! Please tell me you're up already?" said the voice of one of my best friends, Rachel. I rolled my eyes at the Alucard comment. Geesh, Rae was so paranoid.
"No! I don't even know why the hell I get up this damn early! And for the last time: DON'T CALL ME ALEXANDRA! You can call me anything but that. You of all people should know that by now!" I screamed at her. I was so not in the mood today. My parents had been fighting all night and since they had no idea what the words 'inside voices' meant, I was stuck all night having to listen to them.
"Did someone forget to take their happy pill last night?" she asked in a sarcastic voice. I growled at her. "Fine, but don't forget you're spending from now until next weekend at my house. So don't forget to pack extra clothes and stuff."
"Of course I didn't forget. I've had my bags packed for two weeks. Plus, any opportunity to get away from my parents is heaven. It's not like they pay attention to me anyway. Last night, when I asked them to stay at your house for the rest of this week and next week, they just waved me on and continued arguing about who gets the toaster in the divorce."
"I'm sorry Ally. It must suck that your parents are getting a divorce."'That's an understatement'I said in my head. "If you ever need to talk, just let me know. Anyway, we'll be in front of your house in like 45 minutes."
I groaned. "Now I remember why I have to get up so early. You insist on getting to my house like super early."
"Hey! Better 15 minutes early, then 15 minutes late. Maybe that's why you're always late to second period."
"Shut up before I sick Alucard on you."
"What?" She sounded nervous.
Click. I hung up on her and threw the phone on my bed. Yeah, sometimes Rachel's paranoia can come in handy. I proceeded into my bathroom to take by far the quickest shower in the history of shower taking which is about 15 minutes for me. I came out drying my hair and opened my closet. Not sure what to wear, I put on a short, black lace skirt, and a layered black vest with a hot pink tee.
Beep Beep
"Ally, get your butt out here!" Rachel screamed.
"Geez, I'm coming!" I screamed back.
I grabbed my black flats, put my hair into a messy bun, grabbed my hoop earrings, purse, and backpack and ran out the door. I rolled my two fat suitcases down the driveway.
"Finally!" Rachel said.
I gave her a look that she must have taken as 'Don't fuck with me today' seeing as she immediately backed off, but remained playful.
"Here I thought you might need this," she said as I dumped my suitcase in the trunk and climbed into the backseat of her brother's Audi. I once remembered her telling me it cost more than her house.
"Thanks!" I replied taking the coffee in her hands. "By the way, why is Sir Piss-a-lot driving us to school?"
In the rearview mirror, I saw Rachel's 21 year old brother, Eric, give me a look that I calmly returned. Out the corner of my eye, I see Rachel roll her eyes.
"My mom had to go into work early to redo her lesson plan. Unfortunately, Dennis already went to work so we're stuck with Mr. Jerkface over here driving us"
"Okay, seriously, I'm doing you guys a favor. Stop with the name calling," Eric pleaded.
Rachel and I looked at each other with a knowing smile.
"Dumbass," we both said. Eric rolled his eyes, but continued on driving. We pull up to the school and he drops us off in the front.
"Eric, don't forget to take my stuff back to the house. Just put it in Rachel's room. Thanks." He nodded and drove off. I walked into McKinley High School unaware that my life would soon change….for better or for worse.
A/N: Yeah i know the ending is a little dramatic but it ties into the story.
