Chapter 2: Mystery Girl
Izzy's POV:
"I'll GET IT!" I scream behind me as I make my way out of my room and walk along the corridor to the front door. I hope I wasn't imagining the knocks, it sounded as if the person behind the door didn't want to be heard…if there was anyone. I check my make-up in the large mirror just before the door. You never know who it could be!
"God your so conceited Isabelle, you know not everything involves you." Shut up. I really need to stop talking to myself…I hope I didn't say any of that out loud. Now that I'm looking at it, I could use a new layer of lip-gloss…I should also get my hair trimmed, it's getting pretty long. Oh right! The door! Should probably get that. I finally open the door, only to find a dripping wet figure, draped in a black hood that covered up their whole body and most of their hair. Looking up I knew it was a girl, judging by the few strands of red curls hanging out from the dark hood. I still couldn't see her face.
"Are you okay?" I ask "you're soaking wet!" I exclaim, gesturing to the soaked cloth clinging to the young girl. She looks up at me, revealing a set of stunning green eyes. They remind me of Jonathon's eyes. He moved in a couple of months ago, when he said he needed to get away from his father, we don't really know what happened. Since we knew Jonathon from our first years of high school, we said he could move in with us till he finished high school and could move into his own place. Knowing how close Jace and Jon are, they'll probably move in somewhere together…. Back to the mystery girl on the doorstep; I could tell she was around my age looking at her pale, thin face and wide eyes. She was short though, and I felt out of proportion standing in front of her while she was crouched over shivering on the steps. Wait, shivering?
"Please come inside" I say, speaking before thinking. She could be an axe murderer for all I know! Let's hope not.
"I-I'm just here to see Jonathon." She says, speaking for the first time. Her voice is quiet but firm. Stuttering, not as if unsure, but deep in thought, and not really focusing on what she was saying at present.
"Well come in, can I get you anything warm to drink?" Deciding to follow through on the friendly approach. She shakes her head so I tell her I will be right back and I back out of the hallway, pivoting around and leaping up the steps to get to Jon's room.
"JON!" I shout through the door after knocking four times. I always knock more than three times, just to change it up a bit… I'm so weird.
"I'm doing... homework," He shouts back at me.
"Then how come I can hear music playing and your drumsticks hitting your desk? Is that the new homework or-" But he knows I'm being sarcastic and he doesn't give me the chance to continue.
"Fine, fine, I'm coming out"
"He opens the door and sticks his blonde head out, giving me a glimpse of his desk covered in sheet music and his drumsticks splayed out on top of the papers.
"Yeeeah, 'homework'… anyway, someone is at the door and they want to see you." I tell him as he looks at me, grinning like the Cheshire Cat.
"Well since you interrupted my daydream of being a world famous rock star, you owe me. I bet this person can wait." He says, wrapping a hand around my waist and pulling me into his chest so that I have to look up at him. I am considered pretty tall for a girl, but with Jon I still have to crane my neck without my high heels on. I smile and shake my head at his usual antics.
"No, she really can't" I tell him, putting my hands on his chest and giving him an apologetic kiss on the cheek.
"She?" he asks, confused. He probably thought it was one of his and Jace's idiotic friends wanting homework answers or something.
"Yes, 'she', and 'she' is waiting, so lets go" and with that I spin out of his grip and start trotting back down the stairs.
