Disclaimer: I don't own anything, but the plot.
So here is chapter 2 of Unexpected Life. I finally edited it, after having it sit on my desktop for two days or so. Anyways hope you enjoy.
Waking the next morning Alex took a quick shower, dressing in a pair of hip hugger jeans and blue tank top. She threw on a different pair of sandals and applied a little make up.
Downstairs Christy and Cam were already up, Cameron talking excitedly as he sat eating his breakfast.
Hearing a car honk, Alex bade a quick goodbye and walked out the front door. Only she stopped dead in her tracks and gaped at the yellow camero sitting in her driveway.
"This is your car?" she squeaked coming a little closer to it.
A grin came upon Sam's face. "Yep, it's my car." Patting the steering wheel.
Alex tilted her head inspecting it carefully. "Oh, you lucky bastard." He continued grinning as he got out and allowed her to climb into the back seat.
Alex was too interested in inspecting the inside of the car to notice where they were going. She ran her hands along the back seat, loving the feel of the leather beneath her fingers as Sam continued to drive.
They arrived at Mikaela's house ten minutes later, who was waiting for them outside as she jumped. Both her and Sam kissing quickly.
"Mikaela, I envy you," Alex spoke up as Sam continued driving.
"Whys that?" she asked turning to look at her.
"You have a boyfriend, who drives this totally wicked car," Alex grinned continuing to inspect the vehicle.
"Yeah, it can be real cool sometimes." Mikaela said looking over at Sam as they shared a knowing look. Alex to absorb in her inspection still didn't see it as they finally arrived at the school.
Mikaela let her out and Alex looked around noticing some of the odd looks that were turning her way. She walked next to her new friends as they led the way to the office, to pick up Alex's schedule.
"Is she going to be okay?" asked Alex as they left the receptionist behind.
The two nodded, looking at the piece of paper in Alex hands. "Oh, you have the same classes as me!" exclaimed Mikaela as she dragged Alex to their first class leaving Sam to make his own way to his.
Math was their first subject and by the time it was over Alex was ready for a nap. "Wow," she yawned stretching, not noticing the stares she was getting. "I didn't think I could ever find someone so boring after Mrs. Johnson back home. But he takes the cake."
"Yeah, I know what you mean and we still have almost a whole year to sit through his lectures," Mikaela said stopping at her locker.
"Remind me to bring a pillow next time," the two laughed as they made a quick stop at Alex's locker.
They then made their way to their next class which was history, Sam already in there saving two seat for them, one on either side of him.
"Sorry, I couldn't get any other seat but Trent took the one over there," pointing towards a rather built guy who was looking at the three of them.
The table sat four people and unfortunately Alex got the one next to Trent and boy was she going to regret it before the class was over.
They were only a quarter of the way through the class, Alex carefully taking down notes from the board when a note landed on her paper. She looked at the boy next to her, who was looking at her then down at the note. Opening it carefully her eyebrows rising in question.
'Would you like to go out with me?'
Alex regarded him carefully, before writing a big NO on the paper and giving it back to him. He gave a small snort before the scratching of his pencil could be heard. He once again gave the note back to her.
Rolling her eyes Alex read the note taking a glance at Mikaela. Her friend had warned her about Trent the night before and knew some of the tricks he would use. He was a jock and jock's had to have pretty girlfriends to keep up their reputation.
Mikaela was frowning at her, but Alex only gave her a smile as she wrote back to him, slamming the paper down in front of him.
"Trent, is there a problem?" the teacher asked as all eyes turned to him.
He cleared his throat. "No sir, no problem." When the teacher turned back to the board he gave her a glare, which she contently ignored, going back to her notes.
The paper found it's way to her a third time and she grabbed it and threw it across the room, where it landed on the back of the teacher's head. Stopping in his lecture, snickers were heard as he picked it up and read through the contents.
"Trent see me after class." He said turning back around.
Alex stifled a giggle as she returned to her notes and waited for the class to end to get as far away from the guy as possible.
"Oh my god, that was just unbelievable." Sam gushed for what felt like the hundredth time since history had been over.
The three of them were currently sitting on the grass before the parking lot, eating lunch and talking about what had occurred.
Mikaela sighed having had about enough of it. "Yes Sam, it was. Now shut up." Both girls giggled as he grumbled and ate his sandwich. "I'm actually glad I warned you about Trent."
"I'm kind of glad you did too, because it save me the hassle." Said Alex as she looked around. "Speak of the devil." Spotting him making his way over to the three.
Sam and Mikaela instantly stood up, while Alex did slower then the others. All three watched as the boy stood before them with three of his friends behind him. "You got me in detention. I never get detention," he growled pointing at Alex.
Alex placed a hand on her chest and looked around as if searching for someone else. "I'm sorry, were you talking to me."
He sneered taking a step forward, Mikaela placing a hand on his chest. "Back off Trent, you were the one that started it."
"No I wasn't, this little bitch did."
SMACK
Trent stepped back a few steps holding a hand to his stinging check looking at Alex who was practically glaring daggers at him. "Get the fuck out of here before I cut your balls off," she sneered.
He narrowed his eyes at her before turning and stomping away, the other three following glaring back over their shoulders.
Alex looked down at her hand then up to her friends face. "What a great day to start the first day of school," she sulked sitting down.
The rest of the day she kept to herself only talking to the two of them, who tried to cheer her up a little. By the time school ended she was rather happy to be out of the school and on her way to Sam's car.
"I hate school sometimes," she complained depositing her mounds of books on the seat next to her.
"Yeah, it can be that way," said Mikaela as Sam drove down unfamiliar paths to Alex.
"Where are we going?" she asked looking out the front windshield.
"There's a little area the both of us go to when we don't want to go home right away." Explained Sam.
They continued driving for a while in silence, Alex just enjoying the car ride when Sam turned and pulled into a big field with a single tree. It stood looking over the mountains.
All three teens got out, Alex taking her books so she could begin on her massive pile of homework if she wanted to get through the school year.
She was currently leaning back against the lone tree working on her math homework, while Sam and Mikaela had their alone time. So immersed in her homework that she didn't hear three other vehicles drive up until a pair of shoes stepped in front of her.
Looking up her eyes widening, as she looked into the face of a muscular man in his late thirties with deep green eyes. Letting out a squeak she got up and all but sprinted away from the man who seemed startled, before running after hers. His long legs catching up with her quickly.
Looking over her shoulder Alex ducked as the man tried to tackle her. She turned and ran back to Sam and Mikaela who seemed to be amused by the cat and mouse game. Alex saw three other men standing next to the two teens with smiles on their face. She made her way over and ducked behind her friends.
"What does he want?" she breathed heavily after her run.
The man was coming closer looking quite angry as he dusted himself. Sam was busy laughing as Mikaela answered her. "Don't worry he's harmless really." Alex shot her a skeptical look as the man continued coming closer, his sites set on her. "He's just making sure you're not a threat to us."
Alex scooted backwards away from the man only to bump into a man behind her. She glanced up to see a man in his late thirties, early forties looking down at her.
The man that had chased her first was almost upon her when Alex got up and ran again, missing the man's hands by inches. She ran over to the tree and began climbing up it. The man below her grumbled since she was out of his reach as the others came over and tried to get him to back down.
Another guy who looked no older then her or her friends began making his way up the tree after her. Alex continued to climb until she was at the top and realized there was nowhere to go.
"Don't worry Alex, they won't hurt you," Sam called up to her.
"Says you, he," pointing at the man who was glaring up at her. "Is the one who's chasing me looking like he wants to kill me." She stopped clinging desperately to the tree branch, just now realizing how high up she was. "I think, I'm stuck."
Sam fell to the ground laughing as Mikaela shook her head at him, scolding him for laying and saying that he could switch places with.
The three men down below were watching carefully as the other young teen continued to climb with a little more speed to reach her in time. "Alex," Mikaela called up to her. "Chase is going to help you down."
Turning her head Alex saw that the boy, Chase was about even with her, his blonde hair falling over his bright blue eyes. He looked at her and it looked like he seemed to be analyzing something. "Can you scoot back towards the trunk?" he asked.
Alex gulped before looking behind her and began inching backwards slowly until her butt touched the back of the tree. She looked back at Chase who had somehow moved to the branch underneath her and was standing up on both legs, looking undisturbed by the height.
"Swing your right leg over and I'll help you down to this branch," he instructed.
She did as she was told grabbing the branch tightly as he placed his arms around her stomach. "You can let go," he said, but she was too frightened to.
Shaking her head she gripped the branch tighter shutting her eyes. "I promise I won't drop you." Alex shook her head. She heard him sigh as he reached up and gently pried her hands from her hold. He placed her left hand around his neck and then worked on her right hand, which he also wrapped around his neck.
Alex to scared to even move, just clung to his form as he made his way awkwardly down the tree, nearly falling twice as he landed onto the ground.
Hands came and pried her arms from around Chase's neck and gently lifted her up and took her to one of the vehicles.
"Um Jack, I think she's all right," Sam spoke up as they followed behind.
The man stopped with her and turned to Sam. "But her heart rate is dangerously high."
"That's because she was up in a tree and probably frightened of the height," Mikaela pointed out.
Alex had finally calmed down enough to look up at the man who held her and quickly scrambled out of his hands, which he allowed her to do.
"I've had enough for one day. I want to go home," she said picking up her things and looking between Sam and Mikaela. They nodded their heads as she walked quickly to the camero and got in, not bothering to thank the man who helped her.
Sam and Mikaela said goodbye to their friends before climbing into the car and pulling out of the field much to Alex's relief.
No one said anything as Sam continued to drive, Alex to edgy and wanting nothing more to be home where it was safe. They pulled into her drive twenty minutes later, Alex thanking them and saying she would see them in the morning.
She closed the door behind her and made her way to the kitchen where voices were coming from, stepping in and seeing bags full of food on the counters.
"Oh Alex, thank god your home. Can you help put the food away, Cam wants me to help him with his homework." Christy said disappearing before Alex had a chance to respond.
"Yeah sure I'll put the food away," Alex grumbled darkly placing a cartoon of eggs in the fridge. She continued putting the food away until Christy came back in ten minutes later.
"So where did you go after school?"
Alex sighed grabbing a cup and getting a glass of water. "Sam and Mikaela took me to this open field where they hang out after school."
"That's good, you've made some new friends. How was school though?" Christy then asked. Alex watched as she grabbed bread and mayo, beginning to make a ham sandwich, which was one of Cam's favorite.
"It's was okay at first, then this total jock ruined it. He's an ex-boyfriend of Mikaela's and a total jerk."
Christy nodded her head. "Well, you can't win them all," she commented as she left the kitchen.
Alex grabbed an apple and made her way up to her room, intent on finishing her homework. Once in her room she threw open the windows and French doors letting in the cool summer breeze that was flowing though. She sat idly on her bed reading her history book munching on her apple as the breeze felt good against her hot skin.
A little after ten she looked up from her books having finally finished most of it. Alex rubbed at her neck, which tingled after looking down for a length of time. She placed her books by the door and stepped out onto the balcony, taking in the warm weather.
The star danced brightly in the sky, twinkling at one another in there own little dance. Taking one last look at them she headed inside content on getting a full nights rest.
Long after she had fallen asleep the sound of a car starting broke through the night and pulled quietly out of a drove and drove off into the night, leaving behind no trail.
Author Notes: Well, there you have it chapter 2. Still not a lot happening at this point, but that'll change next chapter for sure. By the way I had to give the autobot's nicknames so Alex wouldn't ask any question. So if you were wondering about the newcomers, that was them. Please review.
