Forever United Chapter 1- Unreal.
I walk a lonely road, the only one that I have ever known.
I sigh as I listen to the music flowing through the speakers of my cd player as I get dressed for school. The same school that Derek went to... The one I'm about to go to. I choose light blue skinny jeans with one knee ripped, black converse boots, a dark grey fitting t-shirt, and a neon purple studded belt. I straighten my dark hair and push my bangs to one side of my face, and they almost hang into my eye. I look at myself and apply a light layer of makeup, dark eyeliner, and put on my glasses. I put my cherry chapstick on my lips (cause shes gonna kiss Derek and shes gonna like it! lol) and I fake a smile at the mirror.
"Maybe I can make it through the day." I say, noticing how believable my fake my smiles have become. I walk out of my bathroom and find Allison waiting on my bed, dressed and ready to go.
"I'm nervous." She confesses as she stands up. I smile at her.
"Me too. But we have each other." I say as we lock arms and go down the stairs to the kitchen for breakfast. After breakfast, Allison and I go to the red SUV and wait for our father to take us to hell-er I mean uh, school.
As we stop at the parking lot, I rush out of the car, not wanting to be anywhere around anyone right now, and begin walking towards the school. A hand on my arm stops me as I turn to see Allison.
"Sorry, I just wanted to get the hell outta there." I say honestly. She nods, but a suspicious look comes upon her face.
"Nerves, I'm guessing?" She asks. I nod. "About the new school, well old one?" asks. I feel the sting of tears in my eyes.
"Yeah." I say, my voice cracking. She hugs me.
"It'll be ok. Just dont think about it." She says. I nod as we begin walking again. We get our schedules and I go to my first period. I only have to take two classes until I re-graduate. Yes, regraduate. I already have my diploma but somehow the school I got it from fucked up something and now I have to go back and take two classes. I knock on the door and the teacher opens it.
"Ah, you must be Annabelle. Class, this is our new student, Annabelle Argent." The teacher says and everybody stops and stares, some gasp.
"Oh my God, shes emo!" One whispers loudly. I sigh loudly.
"You mind shuttin your suck hole?" I say loudly and rudely to the girl and boy who were gossiping about me. The boy with an almost buzz haircut laughs but tries to cover it up. I turn to the teacher who looks at me.
"You're first day so I'll let it slide, and it was a bit deserved at their end. Please take a seat next to mr. Stilinski." He says.
"Who is that?" I ask. The teacher points to the guy with the almost buzz Haircut. I smile at him as pumps his fists in the air while mouthing 'Hell yeah!' I sit next to him and he high fives me, which turns into a multi-step handshake.
"I'm Stiles Stilinski. You're names um, Annabelle, right?" He asks quietly. I nod.
"Yeah. Annabelle, Annie, Bell, Elle, whatever suits you." I say honestly. He nods.
"I like Annie for right now." He says, waiting for my approval. I smile and nod at him, which he nods in return. We make small talk during the whole class, and when the bell rang, I got up and Stiles followed me through the hallway.
"Hey uh, I was wondering if you'd wanna you know.. see me outside of school sometime?" He asks nervously. I smile at him.
"I'm sure I will whether I want to or not but um.." I say, not knowing what to say to this kid. Hes nice and all but..
"Not like a date." He clarifies. I sigh and nod, thankful.
"Ok, then totally." I say. He smiles.
"I just saw that you had a bunch of werewolf drawings and I'm totally into werewolves right now and with the animal attacks and stuff, I just kinda wanted somebody to talk to other than the therapists." He says seriously. I study him for a moment, a smile wanting to break out. He laughs. "I dont see therapists." He says and we laugh.
"Um Ok, but yeah, we can hang out. I gotta go tho, so I'll see you around?" I ask as I begin to walk off with a wave. I go to my second and last class. I go talk to the teacher and notice that these kids look older, probably an all senior class. It went by quick enough and as the bell rang, I was left wondering where to go and what to do. I dont wanna go home, but I dont know where else to go. I begin to walk through the parking lot, the wind blows slightly. I glance over at the edge of the woods near the Lacrosse field. I do a double take, seeing someone standing there in all black with dark hair staring at me. As I walk towards them, moving between cars, they disappear. I continue walking to the edge of the woods until I reach it. I glance around, seeing no one. I take a step into the forest, not looking back at the school. I begin walking, having on real destination. I look around, seeing no one, but feeling something watching me. I jump a bit as I hear music.
In this farewell, Theres no blood. Theres no Alibi.
I realize its my cell phone and begin looking through my backpack.
Cause I've drawn regret from the truth, of a thousand lies. So let mercy come, and wash away..
Not in my backpack.
"Where is it?" I mutter to myself as I zip my backpack and let it fall to the ground.
What I've done, I'll face myself. To cross out-
The song cuts off as I answer my cell phone.
"Hello?" I ask, not expecting anyone to call me.
"Hey, what took you so long? Not with your little pet I hope.." I hear Kate's voice on the other end. I sigh.
"I couldnt find my phone and no.. hes not even here. He never has been ever since he left." I say, sadness hiding my voice.
"Aw sweetie, hes a dog, literally! And besides, we kill the flea-infested mutts to make the world a better place, you know that." Kate says. I scoff.
"What you and your little fucktard buddies did to him and his family wasnt making anything better for anyone!" I argue, turning around and glancing as I hear a twig break somewhere, but seeing no one and nothing.
"You cant prove who it was, sweetie. I know it hurts that you liked him, and he was your first, and he was using you for information-" I cut her off.
"I gotta go." I say and turn around, flipping my phone shut, ending the call. I turn it off completly and put it in my pocket and pick up my backpack and begin walking towards the general direction of civilization.
I reluctantly and slowly walk back home, never being able to shake the feeling of someone watching me.
Why would I still live with my parents if I hate hunting so much, and I'm legally an adult? Simple. I have no where else to go. I have nobody else to depend on. I'd be totally fucked if I left.
As I walk up the driveway, I see my mother wave at my through the window. I wave back and walk up the sidewalk and open the door.
"I'm home!.. unfortunatly." I mutter the last part to myself. I sigh and go up to my room and put my backpack down, only to be called back downstairs by my father. I sigh and fight angry and frustrated tears and calmly walk back down and stare at him.
"Kate called. She said she accidentally upset you and you hung up on her." He states. I nod.
"Yeah.. so?" I ask. He sighs.
"So don't you think you should call and apologize?" He asks. I laugh bitterly.
"Im 19, not 12! Why should I apologize her when she knows damn good and well that she said all that on purpose?" I challenge. He takes a step forwards.
"Do it at least for the sake of peace among family and a fellow hunter." He says lowly.
"Maybe later. I have homework." I say and walk up to my room without looking back. I begin doing research on the town, on the fire, and I also look in the help wanted adds. By the time I'm done, I feel tired again, so I put my laptop away and lay back and soon fall asleep into a light sleep. Memories flood my mind, some happy, and some heartbreaking. I wake up to the sound of my phone receiving a text message. I sigh and grab my phone and open it.
From: Allison :) Leaving vets cuz I hit a dog.u go 2 party l8r?-Allie 3
I look at my phone. She hit a dog, and theres a party later.. Sure.
To: Allison :) Fuck yeah, I gotta supervise u neewayz lol :)-Annie 3
I close my phone and go through my newly filled closet. Party clothes. Hmm.. I walk over to my cd player and put on 3OH!3 as i choose my party clothes. I decide on:
grey ripped skinny jeans, black converse boots and a purple shirt with a red broken heart on it. I keep my hair the same.
As I finish re-applying and fixing my make up and straightening my hair a bit more, Allison arrives home. I finish up in my bathroom and walk out into the hallway as shes walking towards me.
"Hey, let me freshen up and I'll pick an outfit then I'll be ready." She says, smiling. I smile back and nod before sitting on my bed. I look at the bracelet laying on my dresser. I dont wanna think about him. Hes not here. I dont even know if hes still alive! A simple 'Hey' breaks my outta my thoughts. I look up to see Allison looking beautiful.
"Wow, I'm guessing theres a boy whos suppose to meet you there?" I ask. She smiles and shrugs.
"Maybe.. You ready?" She asks.
"Yeah, lets go." I say and walk out of my room, shutting my door. I pause, and run back and grab the bracelet and put it on. I rush to catch up with Allison as we both say a quick goodbye to our parents before rushing outside to a waiting car with a girl with red hair and a boy in the front seat.
Lydia, the annoying bitch, and Jackson, ignorant Jackass, get out of the car and leave us behind as they join the party.
"Scott McCall, huh?" I ask as we arrive. She's been filling me in on everything that happened today. Supposedly, hes a total cutie and kicks ass at Lacrosse.
"Yeah. Please dont scare him away, I think I really like him." She confesses with a pleading smile. I hug her.
"I wouldnt do that, I promise." I say as we get out and lock our doors. She walks ahead as I pause and look at my bracelet.
"I wouldnt cause I know how it feels." I say and sigh before walking into the groups of teenagers and blending in. I stand against a wall, a safe distant away from two teens on the verge of screwing infront of everyone. I struggle to keep an eye on my sister and stay hidden. I sigh as I check my phone.
No New Messages. No Missed Calls.
"Hey, you wanna dance?" I look up at some jock looking guy with the stupidest smile on his face. I see a small group of guys watching and laughing.
"Really? You're gonna ask somebody to dance as a joke?" I say, very unimpressed and annoyed and a bit pissed off. He looks dumbfounded.
"What?" He asks, looking back to the guys.
"Its kind of obvious. And if its not a joke, then your just trying to get some, which also isnt happening. You dont have a snowballs chance in hell, so, Listen Dumbfuck, get outta my face before you get your ass handed to you." I say, my patience growing thin. He just walks back to his friends and they start laughing and looking at me. I flip them off, not caring what they're gossiping about. I spot my sister dancing with a boy. She glances and double takes, then says something to the boy. He looks and they both wave. I smile and wave back, then look down.
"Damnit I always get caught." I say to myself. A few moments pass before I feel someone watching me again.. the same feeling I got int he woods. I begin glancing around the forest line where its barely lit until I freeze as I see a person in black jeans, a black shirt, and a black jacket. With dark hair. Staring right at me. I push myself off the wall and begin walking into the crowd of people until one almost knocks me over. I look and see its Allison's date. I laugh for a moment and look back only to find that the person has walked closer and is almost at me.. and I realize who he is. I rush for Allison and grab her arm and try to drag her to the road. As I get a grip on her arm I turn around and bump into someone's chest. I look up and Derek is looking down at me. I take a few steps back and stand infront of Allison a bit. She looks between us and then speaks.
"Who are you?" She asks. I glance at her before looking at Derek. He puts on a smile and glances at Allison before staring at me again.
"My names Derek." He says, his smile never failing as he continued to stare right at me.
Chapter 2 is on the way!
