~Keep Dreaming Alexa~
Chapter 1: before the change
I looked at myself in the mirror, my copper hair was flat, my green eyes dull with black circles under. I made a face in the mirror. I was wearing my blue pajama shorts and the blue tank top that went with them. Smiling at myself in the mirror I went to the bathroom to do my business. When I got out Brady, my little brother, rolled his eyes at me before pushing me out of the way. I stuck my tongue out at him and walked back to my room. Shutting the door after myself I went to the closet and found my black skinny jeans, gray striped knit tunic with my dog tags and some silver bangles. My phone started to buzz so I grabbed it off the nightstand to checked who sent me a message. It was Kim Connweller, my best friend.
Be outside my house in 15 minutes. kay? xx-Kim
I rolled my eyes and grabbed my school bag. Running down the stairs I grabbed my keys off the hook and rushed into the kitchen "BRADY COME GET SOMETHING TO EAT!" I yelled.
Brady came down the stairs wearing a plain black shirt, with ripped levi jeans. I smiled at him, he smiled back and ran to the fridge, looking through it. I glared at the back of his head "I don't have time Brady. move, move, move!" I said to him.
He said something under his breath and I just rolled my eyes. We went to the garage and got into my Hummer. Brady got into the back seat knowing I would be picking Kim up. we drove down the block stopping after 2 blocks. Kim stood in front of her two story house. I smiled at my best friend, she had long black hair that reached just to her elbows. her russet skin was a normal Quileute skin color, she stood at a good 5"6'. Anyone who looked at her for the first time usually saw her as a thin, plain, shy girl.
She was wearing a green V-neck with a gray sweater over it, with straight faded jeans. Kim climbed into my car and shook her head at me. I raised an eyebrow at her, but before i could ask anything Brady kicked my seat. I turned around and glared at him before driving off again.
I stopped in front of Brady's best friend's house Collin Littlesea. I honked the horn to get his attention. Collin rushed out of his house with a sandwich in his mouth and his backpack slung over his shoulder while he tried to put on his sneaker. his black hair was still a little wet from his morning shower. His brown eyes twinkled when he saw me "hey Alex, how are you? looking good as always," he commented as he got into the back of the car. Brady smacked him in the back of the head. I laughed and zoomed down to the school.
Once in front of the school with the car fully parked we got out and Brady and Collin rushed to the school. I looked at Kim and she smiled at me before she turned her head and looked at the guy she has been in love with since elementary school. The boy she's in love with is none other than Jared Cameron. Jared is cute, he has a Quileute black hair, russet skin color. And he was tall. Today Jared was wearing a tight blue t-shirt, with faded jeans and white nike sneakers. Next to him stood his friend Paul Lahote. Ugh how much that cocky idiot gets me mad. He was laughing showing his white teeth. His hair just like Jared long and black. he was just as tall as Jared and he was wearing a tight black shirt that made his muscles stand out. he wore some black jeans and black jordans. Paul looked my way and winked, I pretended to barf. He laughed some more and then went on to talk to Jared.
Kim looked at me and smiled. I rolled my eyes, from the day Paul started to flirt with me Kim thought he liked me and I would like him, so not the case. I grabbed her hand and we headed inside. I dropped her off at her first class and went to English. In English we were reading Romeo and Juliet already halfway through with the book.
After class ended I walked out only to bump into Paul. My books fell to the floor causing Paul laughed, I rolled my eyes and bent down to pick me books up. Standing up I noticed him smiling at me. "me and you movies? friday?" he asked.
I raised an eyebrow at him"Uh...No," I replied and pushed past him.
I met up with Kim for lunch, we both had classes together after lunch. I smiled at her and she rolled her eyes at me. "Math?" I asked, and she nodded.
Kim was a smart girl but she hated math. I laughed and dragged her to the lunch room. We both took some pizza and a salad and went to our table. As we started to eat I felt someone tap me on my back. I looked up to see Jason, my ex.
I groaned, "hey babe," he said with a large smile.
I glared at him, "I'm not your babe Jason."
"Oh come on, you know you still love me," he chuckled.
"Oh you wish. Now if you don't mind, me and Kim would love to eat. I don't feel like throwing up."
Kim laughed at my comment but Jason leaned close to my face. I tried to move back but he was faster then me and grabbed my face pressing his lips against mine. He pulled back and smirked at me.
I stood up, "Alexa!" Kim said in surprise.
I shook my head at her and turned to Jason. "What the fuck was that!" I yelled.
"Well baby, that was a kiss for you to remember what you can have," he laughed.
I clenched my fist and drew it back before punching him in the face. "Now thats what you have to remember me by," I spat grabbing my tray and throw it out, and with that I left the lunchroom.
I sat on the hood of my Hummer waiting for Brady and Collin. I was glaring at my sneakers as Kim tried to calm me down. I couldn't calm down, Jason just couldn't take a hint and leave me alone. Our relationship was just lust on his part. He had me wrapped around his little finger and I was too blind to see that.
