'How could this have happened?' I ask myself. I slept the whole night so I don't understand why I'm here. The police told me that my neighbor Kitty had been murdered, who lives across the street from me. She was a freshman at WMHS and had recently just joined the cheerios team. I'm so confused. I have to find true love. I can't take this any more. I don't want to be a killer because of this stupid devil inside of me. 'This isn't fair!' I yell out with anger. 'I can't take this anymore, I'd rather be dead!' the police guard runs over to talk to me. 'Please keep it quiet. I know you don't like it here, but can you please be quiet. We're releasing you later today.'
I was released later that day, with no charges. They told me that because I was unconscious when they found me lying in her blood, they thought I tried to help her after she was murdered. The police weren't't able to wake me up, and there was nothing they could do. They thought I was in a coma. Well I guess from that experienced I learned that the devil comes out at night and takes over my body. I have no control of it whatsoever. On my way home, I think to myself 'you have school tomorrow, how are you going to explain this to everyone, especially the cheerios? What if glee club won't accept me anymore?' I start crying because I hate having pressure on me. I don't want to go back to school because everyone is going to hate me. I know it already.
I get home, and my mom asks me about what happened. I told her that I would explain it to her and dad at dinner so we can go over the whole situation together. She told me there was news she wanted to share with me as well. I really do not want to ever tell them about my curse.
At Dinner, my mom brings up the conversation. 'So Santana, can you explain why in the hell you were in prison over night?' 'Mom, Dad, I really don't know why. It was a blur. I must have been having a nightmare. I don't really understand why it happened either.' My father adds on 'Santana, do we need to keep a security camera so that this doesn't't happen again?' 'Please dad, no. Don't do that. I promise this will never ever happen again.' In the back of my mind, I knew I was wrong. Our conversation about me ended right there, what a sigh of relief I thought. They bought it, they really believed me. My mom later brought up another completely different conversation just as I was about to leave. 'Santana, I have something to tell you.' 'What is it?' I ask. 'My father and I have been keeping this secret from you for a very long time.' My dad adds in 'Too long actually'. He lets my mom continue 'When we first adopted you, we knew there was something about you. You've always been really talented…' 'Yeah I know mom.' 'Okay, as your belated 16th birthday present, we're giving you an unlimited gift card to Breadstix!' 'Wow thanks!' I felt a sigh of relief that they didn't know of my curse.
The next morning on my way to school I start shaking. It's another panic attack I thought to myself. I started to panic and sat down. It must be a side effect of my curse. I started to cry. This is horrible, I can't take it, this curse is killing me, I don't want to be this person. After a while the panic warred of and I carried on walking to school. I ran to my locker to collect my books, trying to avoid eye contact with everyone. I open my locke and all my books fall to the ground, I just wanted to screem out lound. I take 3 deep breaths and I pick up my books, as I stand up I look across the corridor and I see a girl walking down. I think to myself 'wow, she is so beautiful'. She looked at me and their was some sort of connection, I smiled and she smiled back. I know this may sound clique but I think it was love at first sight, their was something special about her.
First class of the day, Glee club. Mr. Schuester, our teacher introduces the new girl, I look up and It's the girl from the corridor. Mr Schuester says ' Everyone welcome our new student Brittany who is also on the cheerios apparently.' This may sound weird, but I really think she's pretty. The way her blond hair is tied up in her ponytail, and she looks gorgeous in her cheerios uniform. I can't believe I'm thinking this way. All this is brand new to me and it's so unreal. I head on to cheerios practice. Everything was great! Nobody bothered to ask me, since coach Sue told everyone to just keep quiet about it. I guess she didn't know about Kitty. That helped me a lot; coach Sue can be really nice sometimes.
While I was in the locker room, cleaning up after Cheerios practice, Brittany ended up getting the locker right beside mine. 'Hey' she said. 'Um hi. You may remember me from Glee club, I'm Santana.' 'Yeah I know, you're so talented.' 'Oh thanks, that means a lot.' 'So you want to hang out sometimes, we seem to be interested in the same stuff, cheerios and singing' 'Yeah sure that'd be great. Um we could go to Breadstix I got this free card of my Mother.' 'Sounds awesome, should I give you my number.' 'Yeah sure, can't wait.' It was an instant connection, I just want to tell her I love her, I think. I don't even know what she's like yet…
