DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT, STEPHANIE MEYER DOES
Chapter One
It's been nearly a year since I've really seen him. The summer after eighth grade I went to California to stay with my mom and her fiancé, Austin. When I came back, he had completely changed. He wouldn't talk to me over the phone, in person, through letter, nothing. He got Sue and Leah to tell me he didn't want to talk to me.
All of ninth grade I tried to get him to talk to me but he still wouldn't. Every day I would talk to Leah over the phone and she would tell me about him and we would just talk. But, she always hung up when she heard Seth coming in.
It seemed that right when I lost Seth as a friend, I lost all of my other friends as well. Nessie, Claire, Kim, and Hannah. I still saw them at school but they didn't talk to me anymore and I clearly wasn't invited to sit with them at lunch anymore. I would also see Jacob, Seth, Quil, and Embry at school and they would sit with them during lunch. So I joined the track team and sat with those girls during lunch.
Every day I would try to talk to him and every day he would ignore me or avoid me completely. Then finally, on the last day of ninth grade he came up to me in front of everyone and told me how much he hated me, how he never wanted to talk to me again, and that I need to stop bothering him. I was shocked along with the rest of the school. The school was shocked because they never expected happy, cheery Seth to saw something like that. I looked in his eyes and only saw hatred and annoyance. I just quietly told him 'okay' and then walked away.
I was now in tenth grade and I had stopped trying to talk to Seth or even see him. I stopped calling his house and didn't talk to any of his friends. Over the summer the track girls and I had become very close. We did stuff together often and had a lot of classes together.
I took all the advance classes I could take which meant I had to come to school early to take AP Biology and I had to eat lunch in a classroom to take AP Algebra. I wasn't the only one who did that but then again, not many people did.
"Hey! Violette!" Amanda called, she was one of my track friends. Everyone in the cafeteria turned to look at us. I mentally groaned while I was standing in line. Usually when I didn't want to be seen no one would notice me but Amanda always noticed me. I felt a glare at the back of my head and I knew immediately whose it was.
"What's up?" I asked her calmly while moving up in line and telling the lunch lady what I wanted in my salad.
"How come you never eat lunch with us anymore?" Amanda asked, "I never see you in the café."
"Oh, during this time I take AP Algebra, this was the only was I could fit it into my schedule." I responded carefully. I took, AP Biology, AP Chemistry, AP Algebra, AP English, AP French, AP History, and AP Calculus. The school and I came to agreement that I didn't need to take gym if I did varsity track and I wouldn't need to take music if I took music lessons. I also took art lessons so I wouldn't have to take art.
"You're always so busy," Amanda complained, "You're either doing homework or studying, taking piano lessons or voice lessons."
"Sorry," I said and smiled apologetically.
"Why are you loading yourself up with all these hard classes and lessons?" Amanda asked curiously, "Give yourself a break."
"I want to get into a really good college," I said, "the college I want to go to is really hard to get into."
"Which one?" Amanda asked being nosy. I didn't mind, she was only curious.
"Harvard," I responded.
"But that's all the way on the East Coast!" she complained and her face was filled with a horrified look, "How will I ever see you?"
"I'll make it up here for the summer possibly," I responded reassuring her.
Amanda pouted, "That's if you decide not to take any extra summer classes which you probably won't."
I grimaced, she knew me too well. I was nervous about going all the way across the country for college but I had family there and I didn't need to worry about the cost of Harvard because both Eliza and Brendan (mom and dad) were going to help me pay and plus I was pretty sure I could get a scholarship with my grades and track performances.
If it wasn't obvious already, my mom, Eliza, and my dad, Brendan, were divorced. Eliza is now married to my step-dad, Austin and Brendan is currently dating a girl named Mellie.
They got divorced when I was in sixth grade and my mom got married the year of eighth grade... the same year that... Never mind.
The first bell rang right as I bought my lunch. I said goodbye to Amanda and hurried off to AP Algebra.
In Algebra the teacher droned on and on while I took notes and ate my lunch. Finally, the teacher stopped lecturing us and gave us the homework problems to do which I quickly finished. I took out my drawing book to get started on that color sketch I needed to do for art lessons by today. I just randomly made a rough sketch without thinking and looked down and saw I had drawn a girl sitting on the ground facing a forest at twilight with the moon high in the sky.
I packed up my stuff as the bell rang and quickly headed off to AP Chemistry only to find everyone standing against the walls. Mr. Moore was assigning new seats. Of course Chemistry was the only class I had with Seth, Quil AND Embry. And of course my new lab partner just HAD to be Embry.
Embry protested the new seat arrangement at the same time I did but Mr. Moore just held up his hand and said, "Sorry kids, you'll have to deal with it."
I groaned and Embry shot an apologetic look to Seth who just sighed in annoyance. Talk about feeling hated. He didn't even want me to have correspondence with my old friends who just also happened to be his friends.
"Perfect score as usual," Mr. Moore smiled at me as he handed me my test. I put my test into my binder without another glace, another 100%.
"Nerd," Embry muttered under his breath. I just ignored him.
I had to be the most unlucky person on Earth because sitting right behind me was Seth with Quil next to him. I inwardly groaned, so much for not socializing with them. In front of us sat Amanda and Chris.
Amanda claimed that Chris had a crush on me but I just rolled my eyes at her. Chris was also a sophomore and was on the boys track team. The AP classes always had a mix of grades. Embry and Quil were juniors while Seth was a sophomore. They looked odd sitting in a high school class because they looked like they should be in college.
"Hey, what are you doing later tonight?" Amanda asked me turning around in her seat.
"After school I have art lessons and then I will be doing homework and studying," I responded, "why?"
"Put your homework off until Saturday because we're having a track bonfire party tonight at First Beach. It's from 5:00-10:00," she said pleadingly.
I sighed, I've never been to one of the track parties because recently I haven't been into socializing much.
"Come on," Chris said turning around and smiling at me, "it'll be fun, you've never been to one so you won't know what it's like until you try it."
"And you're always the one saying to try everything," Amanda added chirpily knowing she had me trapped.
"Okay," I said thinking it would be nice to get out of the house for once. I took out my sketch pad and finished coloring in the sketch. When I finished I realized that the girl was now sitting on a beach facing a little path that led into the woods.
"What's this for?" Amanda asked taking the sketch from me.
"It's for art lessons," I responded, "I don't know why but this scene looks so familiar."
"Hmm..." Amanda said, "I wonder why..."
"That's the path on Second Beach," Chris said, "I don't know where it leads to though."
Amanda's eyes glinted with excitement, "Let's go exploring!"
"Through the woods?" I asked, my eyebrows raised, "I head there's a really beautiful meadow somewhere in the woods. My dad found it once and has it logged onto a map."
"Yes!" Amanda cheered and the teacher glared at her to quiet down. "We'll go hiking this Saturday," she whispered.
"Sounds good," Chris responded.
"Hmm," I just said.
"Come on," Amanda said, "it'll be fun and you're the only one who can read a map and compass well besides Chris but I don't trust him."
"Thanks," Chris retorted sarcastically.
I sighed and relented to her request. Amanda cheered excitedly and Chris grinned at me. For once I felt free but then the glare on the back of my head reminded me of everything.
