Chapter 2

Things were going as normal. Brittany and Elena got up, ate breakfast, went to school, and then went to their favorite coffee place, but today there's a lot of tension.

"hey 'Lena!" Brittany called in a hurry as she rushed to the picnic tables.

"hey Brit... whoa!" Brittany tackles her. The air suddenly filled with a fit of giggles. When the laughing subsided, they took their seats and began to eat lunch.

"so how's class?" Brittany asks. Elena scoffs.

"like you care."

"I do care. I just don't ask a lot." Elena just rolls her eyes and continues eating her bagel while Brittany proceeds, "does today feel... different to you?" Elena pauses.

"no, why?"

"I feel like someone's watching us." Elena laughs, awkwardly.

"what, can you sense people, too?"

"yes." Brittany says bluntly as she nods.

"so what else haven't you told me?" Elena questions. Brittany's about to answer, but sees a shadowy figure in the woods over Elena's shoulder. Then she blinks and it's gone.

"there's a lot of stuff I haven't told you about. Come one, lets go inside." Elena looks at her with concern, but does as she says. Brittany glances behind them a few times to see if the figure's following, just to be safe.

After their last classes, the two girls head to their favorite little coffee shop. But as they enter, they become uneasy. They slowly walk to their booth and order the usual(black coffee for Elena and a double chocolate chip muffin for Brittany).

"I wonder who our new history teacher is." Brittany wonders out loud.

"me, too. Isn't it weird how that's the only class we have that's the same?"

"kinda, I just hope he's cute." Elena slaps Brittany with her purse. "what? I was only kidding." they chuckle, but Brittany suddenly becomes on edge again.

"what's wrong with you today? Your so... tense."

"I told you why."

"because you think we got a stalker?" Elena giggles. Brittany cracks a small smile.

"yeah. But when you say it like that it sounds stupid. Are you sure there's nothing that feels wrong?"

"positive." Elena thinks about it. "well, actually..." Brittany interrupts her.

"I knew it, I knew it!" Brittany cheers. Elena chuckles.

"yeah, so at lunch, what did you mean by you didn't tell me everything?" Brittany stops. She saw the same figure again, and like before, it disappeared like it did before.

"wait. Did you see that?" Brittany asks.

"see what? Your really delusional." Brittany rubs her eyes and sighs.

"your probably right, lets go to the park." they get up, tip the waiter, and leave. As they walk to the park, a gust of wind hits their backs. They ignore it and move on. Elena looks calm as they sat on the ground by the park pond near the woods, but she was feeling weird, too. She had had this feeling since lunch.

"just wondering, what do you feel right now?" Elena questions. Brittany give a sad smile.

"probably the same as you." Brittany decides to change the subject. "has Caroline called back, yet?"

"no, but it's odd to see how close you 2 have gotten, even though you've never met in person." Brittany smirks.

"I just have a charm that's irresistible." Elena snickers.

"yeah right." Brittany hears this and evilly, she pushes Elena into the pond, laughing. Elena yelps at the cool water and decides to get even. Still laughing, Brittany never sees Elena swim over and pull her in. She screams in surprise and laughter. They splash each other for what seems like hours(it was only 10minutes). They crawl out and lay on the grass, gazing at the clouds. After about 5 minutes of silence, Brittany speaks up.

"I think we should head back to our dorm now, Elena. It's getting dark." Elena nods. They help each other off the grass and head back.

"Brittany... Elena..." a soft voice in the distance whispers. They stop suddenly and look around. Shit. Brittany thinks mentally.

"ma-maybe it's j-just the wind." Elena stutters.

"do you know how many times people have said 'oh, it's just the wind' and then they realize, it's not the wind?" Brittany sarcasticly whispers.

"crap." Elena mutters. All Brittany does is nods.

"Brittany... Elena..." the voice says again, but louder. Brittany and Elena huddle near each other and Brittany whispers,

"on the count of 3, we run. Ok?" Elena nods. "one."

"Brittany... Elena..." the voice draws nearer. Brittany is terrified.

"three!" and they turn to bolt, but run into someone and scream.

"hello, there." the now familiar man smirks.

Thank you to all of you that have stuck with me so far, even though it's only the 2nd chapter :). please review.
