Holiday Imprinting- Chapter 1.
YAY! NEW STORY! To those of you who have read my stories will be used to my little hyper notes before and after the chapters, and those of you who have NOT read any of my stories before, well YOU SHOULD! ANYWAY…this story came to me one night and I just had to write at least ONE chapter, just in case I lost it completely to the land of FORGETFULLNESS! *God I hate that place…* ANY WHO, ENJOY! (im gonna do something now to show people that even though I am OBSESSED with twilight, I still watch stuff like Dr Who!)
GERRRONIMOOOOO!
*I don't own anything apart from the Colin's and any other characters you've never heard of before!*
"Oh, come one Nome! Cheer up!" My Dad called from the driver's seat as I flicked through one of my books moodily. Despite everything, I have to say I was acting the role of moody teenager perfectly. Dad sighed again and I could see him role his eyes at me in the rear-view mirror.
"Out of all the people here, I thought you would have been the most excited! I mean, you were the one that said, let's go to America!" He said, Peter, my younger brother, nodded annoyingly. I scoffed.
"Yeah, I meant like Disneyland, LA or Washington! DC!" I added quickly before he could point out that La Push Reservation was in the Washington state. That's were we're going, by the way. La Push, Washington, Clallam county USA, twelve miles away from the town of Forks. It was dreary, wet, nearly always raining. As if we didn't have enough of that where we live! But even Wales (where we live) doesn't rain that much! I had complained one night that I wanted to go back to America, seeing as we had had so much fun last time we were there, and we hadn't gone on holiday abroad in ages! So, after a while, Dad says, 'fine! We'll go to America, but you can't know where! That's going to be a surprise!' He teased. I let myself get excited, mulling over the possibilities with my friends at lunch in school. Florida to Disneyland? Washington DC to the white house? LA to check out Hollywood? Texas? The ideas were endless. When I saw the destination on the plane tickets I nearly screamed: WASHINGTON! I smiled when I thought how wrong I was. Dad caught this and did a mock sigh of relief.
"Praise the Lord, she smiles!" He said, gesturing towards the heavens. Mum smiled and shook her head, while Pete sang Hallelujah, clapping his hands in full son of a preacher man style. I scowled and shoved my iPod head phones in.
"Nome," Mum warned, but I just turned the volume up to high. She has this thing where if she thinks my music is too loud, she does this charade where she pretends to be turning a dial. Nearly a hundred percent of the time Peter's music is ten times louder than mine, but it's just because she sits right in font of me and hardly ever has the radio playing that she can hear my music. And another thing is that when its singers she likes, like Kelly Clarkson (but I love her as much as she does), she doesn't mind. It's only when ones like NDubz or Ke$ha come on does my music suddenly become too loud. I turned my back to them and looked out of the window as I scrolled through the songs. I picked 'If Today Was Your Last Day' by Nickelback, a to get back at them and b, well it just seemed right. After a while, I just couldn't help it any more; I fished my camera out of my bag and started taking photos. The scenery was so gorgeous, all misty and…almost fantasy-dream like.
"I knew she'd like it," I heard Dad say smugly over my music, which I had turned down to about a quarter of the way. I rolled my eyes, pausing the song that was playing.
"Did you know that she can hear you?" I said, widening my eyes at Dad who jumped slightly, obviously thinking that I couldn't hear him.
"Does she know that we're here?" Mum said, and I couldn't help but feel a little bit excited. We passed a welcome sign to the Reservation, and I quickly took a picture. I looked at one of the photos I took, and there was something in the back round…like… a pair of bright eyes.
I shivered and quickly deleted the photo, pushing scary thoughts out of my head that would give me a nightmare. I quickly played my music and focused on the music, and didn't stop playing till we pulled into a cobbled drive. I looked ahead to see the cutest little wooden house, with a circle of grass which was then almost enclosed by the huge trees of the forest. I felt as if I couldn't complain about things any more, I was completely ready to hate the house when we got there, but it was so perfect! It was not too small like some house, but small enough to be homey. I sprang out of the car and swept the key off the light above the door and ran inside.
"How did you know where the key was?" I heard Dad yell, muffled because he was still outside.
"I heard you talking on the phone!" I yelled back, half laughing as I ran up the stairs. I ran to what seemed to be the second biggest room, knowing without having to even ask that they would have the biggest room. My room (I don't care how much Peter argued, this is my room) was actually really nice! It had a big double bed, with soft cushy pillows, a nice dresser with a nice make up mirror and a fairly big wardrobe. It had a good TV with a DVD player. I gasped as I opened the curtains to find a balcony, and I almost screamed! I had always wanted a balcony, and as I ran outside I stopped and thought, Oh. My. God.
IT WAS BEAUTIFUL!
It showed the forest, but just over the tree tops you could see a beach with grey waves crashing down on the sandy shore. I sighed and rested on the bars, listening to the silence that we never seemed to get back home, there was always cars going past, or I could hear the Xbox playing. But here?
Beautiful silence.
Which was then broken by the thundering footsteps of my brother running up the stairs.
"IT'S MINE IT'S MINE IT'S-." All I could hear was a thud as I slammed the door in his face. Uh oh…
…
"MUUUUUMMMM!"
