New Home
"Wow! It's Beautiful, Dad!" I was standing in front of our brand new home in Forks, Washington. The house was a small, two bedroom two bath home, which is great. I never was comfortable with more than that. The front lawn was the brightest green I'd ever seen and went well with the stark white house.
"Ayzlin, are you going to stand there all day or are you going to come in and see your room??" My dad, Xavier, was standing in the doorway with one of my suitcases. He had spent the past few weeks driving here with the movers and making it a home while i stayed in Texas with a friend. He got all of our furniture and belongings and everything. After everything was set up, I said goodbye to the brown grass and uncomfortably hot humid weather of Texas and took a plane to my new home.
Walking into the family room, i could see pretty much where everything was. The kitchen was hidden behind a half wall with a hallway leading to the two bedrooms. I followed my dad to what was said to be my room. I couldn't help but laugh. So this is what he was doing with that camera! My room looked exactly as it had in Texas. Apparently he had taken pictures of how it looked so i wouldnt have to do anything. A small gift for being asked to say goodbye to all my friends.
After bringing all my things into the house, I unpacked and rearranged some things my dad had gotten wrong. I layed on my bed and stared up at the new ceiling. I didn't mind leaving Texas. I don't like the weather there much. to humid and hot. To busy. I've always wanted to live in a small town where everyone knows your name. My friends, though. That's what my dad was so worried about. But I'm okay. I didn't mind leaving. I wasn't antisocial or anything, i had plenty of friends. But I didn't have very many close friends. No friends that I could tell anything and everything to. Moving felt right. I felt that maybe if I moved, I could find that friend who could see into my soul. I wanted that.
My friends were divided into two categories; Those who knew and those who would never find out. I'm a witch. Nothing I can do about it. And normally that wouldn't be a bad thing. my Friends Who Knew would be great. I'd have so many I wouldn't know what to do with them. But I'm not a normal witch. Oh no. Not only do I have to be magical but I have to be a magical weirdo. My appearance is intimidating, but inviting. I'm very beautiful, which is the intimidating part. I'm not being conceited, i swear. I can change my appearance to whatever I like, so I know I'm beautiful. But I'm also very nice. I always wear a smile and I try to be kind to everyone. Normal people can't get enough of me. However, my 'special' schoolmates, who go to the 'special' school in Italy, are terrified of me.
--Flashback--
"Ms. Amhurst.. I think we need to talk." I followed my headmaster to his office. What had I done wrong? "Headmaster, If this is about what happened to that Matt kid, I didn't do it! And even if I did he deserved it! How could he say such things to her! that little--" "Calm down, Miss Amhurst, you re not in trouble." My headmaster chuckled as i was stammering about my previous "performance". "Then.. why am I here, sir? No one else got called in, so I can't assume it's just an average greeting." We walked into his office and he motioned to a very comfortable looking chair for me to sit and offered me some chocolates. "Miss Amhurst --" "Ayzlin, please" I interrupted. Miss Amhurst was to formal for me. "Very well. Ayzlin, I wished to inform you that, although this is a school for the magically gifted, I've noticed you happen to be more gifted than others." I stopped munching on the chocolate and stared at him, utterly confused. "More gifted, sir? All I did was get Matt wet.. I mean! All I DIDN'T do was.. oh forget it. I'm a terrible liar." i sighed and looked down, expecting to be scolded. "It's not that you got him wet, Ayzlin. It's that you made the river get him wet. And without a charm or something for you magic to travel through. I have never met a student who could manipulate the elements. As very excited as I am to have come across one, I must ask you to please refrain from doing so. Try not to make yourself stand out. Things like that are not common. It makes other students very uncomfortable. If you feel the need to do something above average, please come here to do so." I figured looking normal would help, so i quickly changed the bright pink color of my hair to a more normal strawberry blond. the Headmaster stared at me, shocked. "Brilliant!" he finally stated. "Ahem. yes, please refrain from drawing attention to yourself." Absolutely brilliant! She can change your appearance? How delightful! I couldn't help but smile when I heard his thoughts. I had a feeling I would get along with this headmaster very well. I decided not to mention the fact I can hear the minds of others.
After leaving the office, happy that I would get along with the headmaster but sad that I had to hide myself, I felt the eyes of my peers on me. Why did she just come from the headmaster's office?
Is she famous?
Oh, It's that girl who soaked Matt.. how weird.
What did she do?
She's pretty hot, even if she is weird.. Maybe I should get to know her better...
"Uhm.. excuse me?"
I stopped walking to find where the voice was coming from. Next to me was a girl. She had rather long chestnut hair and a very angular face with soft brown eyes hidden underneath a pair of glasses. It was the girl from earlier. The one that Matt kid was messing with. "Yes?" I gave her a wide grin to show her I wasn't someone to be nervous around. "Uh. Hi. Uhm. My names Rachel. I just really wanted to thank you for earlier today..." She smiled and looked up at me. She had a lovely smile. If she had some confidence and a little fashion skills, her beauty could easily outrank mine. "It's no problem. He deserved it. Saying such things is inexcusable. Especially to a girl, not to demean the gender or anything." She just stared at me. Rachel is talking to that weird girl? Figures. Freaks. I turned to that malicious tone and noticed a girl with long red hair and blue eyes. The way she stood and thought easily described her. Snobby. Arrogant. she caught me looking and glared at us. What the hell is SHE looking at?! She must be jealous. Of course. Who Isn't jealous of me? I walked over to her, a little annoyed by her thoughts. "Excuse me. I couldn't help noticing that expression your wearing." She amplified the disgusted look she was wearing. "Be careful now" I said to her "you wouldn't want your face to get stuck that way, sir" As I smiled and walked away I saw her mouth hanging open and her thoughts were blank and confused. I grabbed Rachel by the arm. "So! Wanna come to study hall with me?" She stared at me and then smiled. "Su.. sure!"
--End of Flashback--
I stared at my ceiling for a few minutes more then decided I needed to be outside and enjoy this beautiful place. I just couldn't be still. It was barely noon so i could be out for a while.
I looked out my window to the backyard and saw the inviting forest edge. pulling on a jacket and bringing a small backpack with some food, my iPod, and my phone, I walked out our backdoor. "I'm going to go explore some, dad. I'll be back later!" "okay, be safe, honey. and I'm making dinner at 6 so be back near then." With that I headed off into the unknown forest.
A/N: I wont know if you like it if you don't tell me!
Review, please!
