Hey, sorry it took a while. I was working on my other story. Well I hope this was worth the wait.
During the flight, the flight attendant, named Teresa, asked my at least five times if I was alright. That was all before we took off. I pulled out my IPod nano and turn it on shuffle. I put my head back on the seat and just wanted to fall asleep.
The seat beside me moved slightly. I just ignored it. It was probably just another overworked husband in the middle of another affair or filing for another divorce. That is who it always was.
I guess the person thought I was sleeping because he didn't bother me at all. Not even a tap on the shoulder to turn down the music.
I cracked one of my eyes open to see two people hunched over me talking to each other. I turned my IPod down without making any sudden movements.
They both turned their heads to look at me.
It was a boy and a girl. The girl had black hair that didn't reach her shoulders, but it suited her well. This was true only because she had a small pixie like figure. I think the smile on her face was permanent. Her eyes were a deep brown. Usually brown eyes were flat, but she had deep brown. The guy had rich brown hair. Like the color of dark chocolate that I can only eat in small amounts because it's too rich. It was long, but it wasn't long enough to get in the way of his eyes. He had a muscular shape but not like a six pack muscular. It was more like a runner's body. His eyes were a shocking emerald green. They were almost like a crystal with a strong green tint. It was way too easy to get lost in them.
"Hi." I didn't know what to say.
They both sat back to their seats. The girl turned towards me sticking her hand out and saying, "Hi, my name is Alice and this is my brother, Edward." I swear if her voice were a car she would be going 200 miles per hour. I shook her hand and turned to meet the greened eyed, Edward.
"Hello. It's nice to meet you." His voice was as smooth as silk like in one of those old black and white movies.
I realized I was staring. "Oh...um…same here," I stammered.
Alice grabbed my shoulder and turned me around to talk to me.
She talked to me for ten minutes straight, and I'm not even sure if she took a breath. Did I mention that all I got out of the conversation was something about shopping? Yeah, I was scared.
After another good half hour, I finally got a good fifteen words in. "I'm going to take a nap. Please wake me up before we land."
"No problem"
"Thank You."
I dreamt a really long time. Or so it seemed. I had this strange dream that I was Cinderella and Alice was a step-sister, but she was not evil. Can you guess who Prince Charming was? Yes, it was none other than, thee Edward.
I woke up by the sound of two people laughing their heads off. When I opened my eyes I realized that it was Alice and Edward hunched over me again, but this time, they were staring straight at me. They had an amused look on their face like they were waiting for more to come. As soon as they saw my eyes open, their expressions turned to disappointment. They quickly sat back straight up into their seats.
I blinked a few times trying to understand what just happened. I was totally confused so I turned to Alice. She, of course, had her hand on her mouth trying to muffle a chuckle.
I ignored her and asked anyway. "Alice, what is so funny?"
She went still for a second, but then burst out into another hysterical laughter.
I turned to Edward who was calmly looking out the window. He was too calm, but I didn't want to talk to him unless I absolutely had too. So, I just laid back into my seat, crossing my arms, and waited for Alice to calm down.
It took her a good 5 minutes to settle down to a low chuckle.
I made the mistake of asking her, "Are you done now?" Well, that set her off again.
I resumed my position in my seat and was shutting out any sound.
I couldn't shut it out though. I sat there wondering why I felt alone in a plane of over 100 people. Alice's laughing made me feel worse. At that moment it felt like the loneliest sound in existence. So, I let my mind wonder on that particular subject for awhile.
I hadn't realized I had fallen asleep AGAIN!
This time, a slept dreamlessly. I was glad because I had a feeling that Alice and Edward earlier laughter was because of my dream.
Anyway, I woke up to Alice ambushing me with questions. I swear that girl had had an overdose of something because she was, pretty much, jumping up and down in her seat.
"Oh, Bella, I was just about to wake you up. If you don't mind me asking, where are you going once you get off of this plane?" She was starting to get on my nerves. "I would really like to know." She glanced over in Edwards direction for only a second then continued. "Please will you tell me? Because if you were staying I was wondering if you would want to go shopping with Edward and myself?" This girl never would shut up for one second would she?
"I'll be staying and attending Ceajere College. And yes, I would like to go shopping you and Edward." Just saying his name made me feel funny knowing that he was half a foot away from me, that is… or so I'm guessing.
Alice starting jumping up and down more, (if that's possible.) "Oh. My. Gosh. We're going to Ceajere College too! I'm SOOOOOOOOO excited now!" Wow, I really didn't want to know what she's like when she's ecstatic, especially is this is her excited. Maybe when she's mad she acts like a normal person would on a good day. Hum, who knows?
Just then the speaker was turned on and made a crackling noise, kind of like when someone steps on bubble wrap. "Passengers, please fasten your seat belts we are preparing to land."
This was going to be a long and painful college experience with all of this shopping and all of this excited Alice.
I hope you liked it. I promise more exciting events will happen in the next chapter. Please be patient. Also, please review I only had one.
