Chapter 1
I opened my eyes to another boring dreary day, to the sound of my alarm clock. I reached over and turned the alarm clock off. The time read 6:30. I groaned and got up and walked sleepily down the stairs, tripping twice. God did I hate Mondays! I walked over to the fridge, and got the milk out, then I went to go get the cereal and a bowl and spoon. After I was done I rinsed the bowl and spoon off and put them in the dishwasher.
My mom, Amy, owned her own bakery, and normally left around 5:00am to open up. So most mornings it was just me, except on weekends.
I glanced at the clock again and it said 6:45. I only wasted fifteen minutes. Mornings were always slow for me. I walked back upstairs and went to my closet to decide on what I should wear. I finally decided on a royal blue top and jeans. After about ten minutes of failed hair options, I ended up leaving my hair down. It normally didn't take me long to get ready for school. I glanced at the clock again and it said 7:05. I still had a whole hour and a half before I would leave for school. So I settled on working on some unfinished calculus homework.
Finally at 8:30, I got my books, jacket, and keys, and went to my car. I drove a black 2002 Honda Civic. It was a good reliable car.
When I got to school, my best friend Caity was waiting for me at the front of the building. She had been my best friend since first grade. We knew everything about each other, and told each other everything, so there were no secrets.
"Hi! You're here?" Caity said
"Of course I'm here," I said, "It is a school day."
"Yea, but we have presentations in history Sarah" she said.
"Crap"
"Don't worry you'll do fine" she said
"Thanks."
Then the bell started to ring that told us we had 10 minutes to get to class.
"Looks like we should get going" she said "See you at lunch."
"See you later" I said walking towards my first class of the day.
My first class of the day, Science, went by in a blur. That's one of the things that I hated. Whenever I was dreading something, time always seemed to speed up. But whenever something
good was going to happen, time seemed to always slow down. My second class was P.E. I hated it. I was uncoordinated, and clumsy. I was also horrible at any sport known to man.
When P.E was over, I was one of the last people leaving the gym to go change. Just as I was about to walk out the door of the gym, Coach May asked if I could pick up the equipment that was used today. And being me, I said yes because I am one of those people that would just say yes and agree. When I was done, I looked at the clock and realized I had five minutes to get changed out of my P.E uniform, and get to calculus, which was on the other side of the school.
I got dressed so fast that it was probably the fastest I have ever dressed in my life. I decided to use the hallway behind the gym that nobody ever used. It was the fastest route to get to class on time. That's when I saw them.
There were two boys standing at the end of the unused hallway, quietly discussing something. I had never seen either of them before. They were facing away from me, but as soon as I walked nearer to them they turned around, and smiled at me. Suddenly I stopped. Both of them were breathtakingly beautiful.
The taller one, who was at least 6'6", because he looked to be a little more than a foot taller than me at 5'4", had golden blonde hair. The shorter one, who looked to be about 6'3", maybe 6'4", had dark brown hair. They both looked to be about 17 or 18, close to my age. The both had beautiful faces, with perfect features. Their skin was a snowy pale colour. They were paler than I was. They both had dark, crimson red eyes, and dark circles under their eyes, like they hadn't slept in a while. There was something about their eyes that was just weird though.
After about thirty seconds, I realized I was staring at them. I smiled back at them. My smile was nowhere near as perfect as theirs. I kept walking. As I got closer to them, they didn't stop looking at me, and the taller one said something to the shorter one that I couldn't hear.
"Shouldn't you be getting to class?" I asked as I got closer, still to them.
"Well actually we were waiting for you Sarah." the taller one said. His voice was beautiful, and mesmerizing.
I stopped again. How did they know my name? I had never seen them before in my life!
"H-how did you know my name? And why were you waiting for me?" I stuttered "D-do I know you?"
The shorter one chuckled and said "No, you don't know us, but we know you Sarah. My name is Alex, and this is my brother Daniel." he gestured to the tall blonde, "and we've been watching you for the past couple of weeks."
"Why" It was the only thing I could manage to say.
I should be happy about this. I mean what kind of girl wouldn't want two breathtakingly gorgeous guys watching her right? But I was scared stiff. There was something about them that told me I should run away from them.
They smiled at me again. Then Alex said something to Daniel that, again, I couldn't hear. And they smiled at me again for the third time. Then I just turned and started to run the other way. I didn't get very far before I felt two cold, strong arms grab me to keep me from running. Then one hand was placed over my mouth, probably so I wouldn't scream.
I realized it was Alex who had grabbed me, because when he turned us around I could see Daniel walking towards us.
"Do it very easily Daniel, we don't want to hurt her." Alex said.
"I know" Daniel said, sounding a bit annoyed. He then walked over to us, and touched my shoulder. Everything suddenly went quiet and dark.
