Waking Up In Forks
I Sat down on the big brown couch and flipped to chapter 10 in Twilight.
I loved this book so much I think it was my tenth time reading it. Ever since I saw it in the bookstore I was in love. I got addicted just like every other Twilight Fan.
"Edward in the sunlight was shocking. I couldn't get used to it , though I'd been staring at him all afternoon. His skin , white despite the faint flush from yesterday's hunting trip , literally sparkled, like thousands of tiny diamonds were embedded in the surface."
I Stopped Reading and pictured the infamous Edward Cullen as Bella Had described him, pale and beautiful like a god.
A guy who would only exist in our minds.
I sighed.
Yeah , it's sad that no guy like that exists.
What I give to be Bella, I thought dreamily.
To be Bella would be a dream come true to every fan girl out there. If they were Bella they could have Edward , Jacob , the Cullens, everything that was a fantasy in real life.
"Your reading that thing again?" My mom asked with a tone filled with disgust that I was actually reading it again.
"Yes"
I gritted my teeth annoyed that she would ask a stupid question like that. Of Course I was reading it what else did It look like I was doing? Looking at the pretty print?
"Well , I'm going out for a while, could you watch Emily?"
Emily was my little six year old sister , and I knew I would have to watch her even if I didn't want to.
"Sure."
"Okay ,well are you going to be alright?" My mom asked trying to come up with words to fill the empty conversation.
"Nope."
"Okay, I guess I'll go now."
"Bye."
I truly sounded uninterested in what my mom did , and that was how I felt. Bored and uncaring.
My mom made her way across our small living room to the front door and grabbed the handle. She Paused for A Moment and looked back at me.
I looked up at her feeling her gaze on me.
"Bye."
My mom said in a tone that kind of sounded sad and painful.
"Bye."
My mom locked the door behind her and went out into the dark warm night.
I sat there for a little while just looking at the blank TV screen.
I finally got up and headed up with my copy of Twilight, In My Left Hand And walked to up the stairs to my room. I sat the book down carefully on my nightstand , like it was a small child who needed to be protected. I glanced down at my alarm clock.
9:02
It read.
It was Emily's bed time.
I opened the door out into the hallway and made my way to the door covered in butterfly stickers and had big letters on it that spelled out Emily.
"Emmie?"
I asked knocking on the door using her nick name.
"Come in." My little sister's small, tiny muffled voice said reaching the door.
I opened the door to reveal a small room bathed in pink.
Emily Was In the floor propped up on her shoulders playing with two beach blond Barbie dolls.
"Bed time, Kiddo." I announced .
Emily's Curly brown head turned to face me , her green eyes filled with disappointment.
"Please, Cassie, Just A Little Bit longer."
She was so angelic it was hard to say no to her.
She Was like a Little, Innocent angel. She never did anything bad, and she did what she was told, But when she was a teenager that would all change. She would be the rebellious teenager, that all teens were.
"Sorry , Em , mom's orders."
She frowned and put her dolls in the Disney Princess toy box at the end of her bed, and crawled up in her bed with her Purple Pajamas on.
I went over to turn of the lamp beside the bed but Emily stopped me.
"Cassie , can you tell me a story?"
Emily asked with Her big Pleading green eyes.
I hadn't told her a story since she was four . I guess it would be feel good to do it again. I sat down on her Bed.
"Sure What story to you want me tell?"
"Anything."
Emily smiled , with victory.
I decided to tell her the story of Twilight.
She Might not get a lot of it but it was a story that every kid should hear.
"Once Upon time , there was a girl who moved to Forks, Washington." I began.
I was right. I did have to explain A lot of things to her like why the vampires in this story sparkled and why Bella moved to Forks, And why James chased Bella Just for her Blood. Other than those things she got it pretty well. She Stayed Quiet the whole Time until she had a nagging question that she Had to ask.
I finished the story with "they lived happily ever after", and got up and tucked her in, like a mother would do.
"Could night Cassie."
Emily's innocent voice whispered.
"Good night , Emily."
I whispered back and turned off the lights.
I made My way outside to the hallway, and closed the butterfly covered door behind me.
I Went Down Stairs and plopped down on the couch again.
I found the remote and started to flip through the channels.
There Was absolutely nothing on. I settled On Some news Channel .
I leaned Backed into the couched and tried to focus on the headlines.
I slowly Felt My eyes start to get heavy. Before I knew it I was asleep.
I woke up with surprise that I fell asleep. I rubbed my eyes and looked around. I didn't pay any attention to the headlines , but Later I wish I would have.
"There Has Been two more street killings in Seattle. The police advise people to stay off the streets at night. That's all for tonight."
I clicked the TV off , not knowing the resemblance with the killings in Eclipse.
I stumbled up to my bedroom and put on my pajamas and went to the bathroom.
I stood in front of the Large bathroom mirror staring at my Pale awkward complexion.
I was Tiny around the waist. It wasn't a supermodel tiny, it was a " I don't eat enough" tiny.
My shoulder Length dyed red hair looked awkward against my pale skin.
It actually didn't look natural. My natural Hair color was Brown Like Emily's. I dyed it to resemble the leader singer of Paramore's .
I had Green eyes like my sister but they weren't as angelic like Emily's.
I had large eyes and short eye lashes and regular sized lips. I had a few freckles sprinkled across my face.
Cassandra Katelyn Adams.
I didn't realize how much I would miss that name.
I got ready for bed then I made my way to the door that said "Caution ,Parental warning"
I climbed up in my bed and turned of My Lamp.
I lay in bed just looking up at the ceiling for a little while just thinking about how awesome it would be to live in Twilight.
But It was never going to happen so I closed my eyes to poster covered room and fell into the dull black calming sleep.
