Now, Never in Reach
Chapter 1
The first good thing.
"Rosalie Hale, get out of bed this instant! If your late again today, there wont be an excuse. Wait, yes there will be. It's called laziness, and it'll be your own fault! No more sympathy from me." Mom screamed at me from down the hall. It was five thirty in the morning! How was I going to get up? School didn't even start til' eight!
"Wait," I whispered to myself, "she used by middle name. Either she's really angry, or she was hiding something." But the problem was she only got angry if we did something like disrespect to our guests or something. She was definatly hiding something. I got out of bed and walked over to my dresser. In the mirror I saw something so horible, I thought I was hullucinating. Except there were some small problems with that theroy. First, I was standing in front of the mirror so I know that it was me, second the thing in the mirror had the same eyes, full lips, and regular sized nose. The one thing I didn't recognize was that stuff sticking out in every direction! It looked like yarn or string of some kind. "Oh my gosh!!! I can't belive this! I look like...like...like the bride of Frankenstein!" I meant to talk to myself.
"You always have and just now you notice? You really must have really been blind up to this day." My younger brother Felix said. What a pain younger brothers
could be!
"Felix! Don't," mom said in a sharp tone. "Honey, do you want help?" She asked in a lighter tone.
"Yes, but please don't pull too tight" I asked.
"Ok hun, when I'm done wash up and get on your school clothes. Felix, Krissy, Dad, and I have a suprise for you." She had this look on her face and in her eyes as if I were missing something very very obvious. Was it someones birthday? And then it dawned on me... tomorrow was MY birthday! Yikes, I absolutley hate birthdays and partys.
It was September 12th. The worst day ever! It seems to me that I've been a clutz since I was old enough to walk. Normally nothing special happens on my birthday. I ask most people to not say anything at all. But mom said there was a suprise waiting down stairs. Oh, no! What could they possibly be thinking?! They know that if I had
been just a bit bigger of a clutz when I first started walking, that I would have been crippled.
She finished and I got dressed. All the while I was thinking about what horror lurked down stairs. Could it be a gathering of people? At six in the morning? Get real. Like anyone is going to agree to that. So what was this big suprise down stairs? And who even gets a present before her birthday? It just doesn't make sense!!!
I walked into the hallway, cautious. Looking for any sign of indication that would hint something about this big horrible suprise that awaited downstairs. I was so paranoid I could hear it mocking me all the way from down there, preying on my fear and distrust. I braced myself for the worst party/surprise thing ever!
