Hola!
I just wanted to say Thank you to the people who reviewed, it means alot :)
Chapter 2
i gasped as i woke up and started coughing, i could taste something metallic in my mouth, as i sat up i looked around my vision was sort of blurry, i blinked a couple of times. I looked around the room, it was fairly simple a bed, a small wooden wardrobe, vanity table, there was also a window blowing in fresh air. i got up and found my legs were shaky, as i walked up towards it something was nagging at the back of my mind telling me not to go there... oh shut up inner me.
I poked my head out the window sill and took a deep breath and looked down, I felt my eyes go wide, so it wasn't just a dream, everything looked so old but looked so beautiful at the same time.
As i backed away from the window I heard the door open.
"Tessa! what are you doing?" I heard a familiar voice say to me.
I turned and saw who it was. Charlotte.
" relax, i was just looking out the window," I don't know how I was being so calm telling her to relax when I'm the one freaking out inside.
She just gave me a look but I didn't care, I needed answers and I needed them now.
" ok so lemme get this straight... were are in 1876, London and I have somehow time travelled to the past?" She nodded.
" But how, how is this even possible?" I breathed out.
" Tessa I'm sorry be we don't know right now but do not worry we have a friend coming over he will be able to tell us," she said.
I nodded but I was still confused "How come he can tell us?"
"Tessa don't worry, we will everything when he comes," she said, I could tell from he tone that she didn't really want me asking anymore questions.
I nodded and looked around once more mostly to avoid Charlotte's gaze, I gasped as I spotted my suit case and ran over there- i didn't realize it came with me.
"Tessa is everything ok?" asked Charlotte worriedly.
"Yes Charlotte I'm fine thanks," I said " Uh Charlotte? is there anywhere I can clean up?"
"Oh yes of course, I'll just call Sophie to run you a bath,"
" run me a-" Oh riiighht they didn't have showers " Uhh of course, thank you"
"It isn't a bother" she smiled
After she left to go find Sophie who apparently is their servant/maid person I sank down on the bed I kept wondering who was their friend and how can he give me the answers that I'm looking for?
I looked up as i heard the door creaked open and in came a very pretty girl -she looks very petite and delicate, she must be Sophie.
"Good morning miss, Charlotte told me to come in and prepare a bath for you?"
she asked
"please,don't call me miss, call me Tessa, and yes please do prepare the bath... I really do need a bath, my hair is getting disgusting" I muttered the last part to myself. I was about to step forward when I saw her whole face, I had to blink a couple times to see if my vision wasn't messed up, she had a scar on the left side of her face (A/N i don't know if it was right or left) running from the corner of her mouth to her temple, even though it scarred her i still thought she was very pretty, but I felt sorry for her. She turned around to face me as if she could feel me staring at her but said nothing of it except telling me that the bath was ready and it was warm.
"Thank you Sophie" I really appreciated it, maybe because back in 2013 you could hardly ask anyone for a favor without being asked something in return, though i knew Charlotte had asked her before hand.
" It's fine mi- Tessa" She remembered quickly.
By the time i finished my bath and scrubbed all of the dirt from my body and hair my fingers were all pruney.
Sophie had waited till i finished getting ready to dress me, but i insisted that i dress myself, I took out a cream colored shorts and a black tank top with some flip flops -well it wasn't like I was going to visit the Queen and brushed out my hair, put on some lip balm and some eyeliner.
Sophie looked at my outfit " how can you not feel exposed?"
I shrugged " You adapt to the fashion changes"
she nodded " Now come on we must get a move on if you want to be in time for breakfast and meet everyone,"
"Alright" I thought about everyone I had seen before, I only know Charlotte by her first name- but the others i didn't- Silver, Blondie, Ginger and Gorgeous . My heart skipped a beat at the thought of seeing him No Tessa, you don't fall for guys like that my mind kept telling me but my heart was saying otherwise.
