Chapter Three:
"Well well well. Isn't it Omar. I'm curious. How was your trip to Alvarado? You know, Alvarado is a small town. Everyone knows everyone. Funny thing is, my friend Tressa has never seen you there. I think I just caught you in the middle of a lie." Omar's smile dropped. "Why don't you go back to your table with all of your little clones." He just glared at me.
"This isn't over yet freak." With that he walked away. I hope his threats aren't supposed to scare me because they don't. I looked down at my so called food and picked at it. The bell rang and the four of us headed to our next class. I went to my locker and grabbed my physics books and made my way to my class. I looked around to see who was all in my class. I noticed Tristan was sitting my himself at the back table.
I went over and sat down across from him. He looked up at me and smiled. I noticed that he had perfectly white teeth and when he smiled, his green eyes semed to sparkle. He was perfect in every way. I pulled myself out of the trance that I was in and looked away. The teacher walks in and starts to teach. He's the only teacher today who didn't go over class rules and expectations. We went straight into electricity. Physics is an interesting subject. Everything in life ties into physics. We continued to take notes and watch the demonstrations. The teacher finished his lesson plans early and gave us the rest of the class to do whatever. I was going to use this time to get to know Tristan a little better.
"Do you miss Germany?" He looked up from his drawing. I could see it in his eyes. The loneliness and sadness. He nodded and stared off into space. "Not to be nosey or anything, but I'm curious. What are you drawing?" He looked down and smiled.
"I'm drawing something beautiful. It truely is something inspiring." He smiled again and continued to draw. Deciding to leave him alone to draw, I opened my book and continued to read. In some kind of trance, I read page after page When the book was about to get intense, the bell rang. I closed my book and went to my locker. I grabbed my gym clothes and went to gym. I walked into the gym and sat down next to Jessica, who was talking to her athletic buddies.
I sat there anxiously waiting for the wretched class to begin. I looked around and noticed that Jess was the only one that I can get along with. The teacher walked in and started to hand out some papers. A tall girl walked in to the gym and looked around. She had blonde hair and vibrant green eyes. I could tell by a couple of her features that she was related to Tristan. She looked at me and walked over. She smiled and sat down. I smiled back and continued to pretend that I was paying attention to the gym coach.
After what seemed like hours, the bell finally rang. While I was gathering up my stuff, the new girl tapped me on the shoulder. I looked up and she smiled. "Your Ana, right? I'm Violet. Tristan has told me about you. About how welcoming you and your friends are." I smiled at her. It was nice that she introduced herself.
"That would be me. I'm Ana Jefferson. Tristan is an amazing guy. Its my honor to know him." We both smiled and we walked out of the gym and went to our lockers. I played with the lock until I was able to get the locker opened. When the locker opened, a piece of paper fell out. I caught it before it hit the floor and unfolded it. It was a well drawn picture. It was a picture of me. I flipped it over to see if it said who it was from. Nothing was on the back. Someone came up behind me and grabbed my shoulders. I gasped and turned around to see a curious Elaine standing behind me. I quickly hid the picture behind me. Elaine, being Elaine, tried to take it from behind my back.
"What do ya got? Let me see!" I finally gave in. I can't hide things from her. I handed her the picture. She just stared at it. "Holy Hannah! Who drew this? It's gorgeous! They really did a nice job." I laughed and took the picture away from her. I grabbed the tape at the top of my locker and hung the picture up next to my pictures of Marilyn Manson.
"The thing is, I don't know who drew it. And I don't know why they chose me. I'm not that nice to look at." Elaine Snorted. We exchanged a look and started laughing. We walked out to our cars. We exchanged our "Goodbyes" and our "See ya tomorrows" and took off. . On our way home, Jessica talked about how excited she was for volleyball to start and what classes she was looking forword to.I sat there and listened. We finally made it home. I parked my car in the garage next to my parent's cars. I shut the garage door and walked into the house.
I went to the kitchen table and sorted through the mail. I handed Jessica her mail and took mine up to my room. I turned my stero on and listened to the steady beat of the bass in Mudvayne's newest album. I sat down at my desk and put my bookbag down on the floor next to me. I put all my junk mail in the paper shredder and pulled my homework out of my bag. I worked through my physics without any trouble. I read past my English assignment. I felt my phone vibrate next to me. I read the number but didn't recognized it. I flipped open my phone and read the message.
Elaine gave me your number. I hope you don't mind. -Tristan-
I smiled and quickly replied. I went on to my math and spanish homework. When I finished, I took out my book and continued to read. The book is getting intense. I love how the author keeps you on your toes. Just as my book was getting good, my phone vibrated again. It was Elaine.
I gave Tristan your number. I knew you wouldn't mind.
Elaine was insane but I love her. I opened my book and finished the chapter. My mom called us down for dinner. I turned off my stero and went down stairs. Mom was moving the food from the kitchen to the table. Dad was sitting in his usual chair reading the news paper. Mom and I sat down in our usual spots and waited for Jessica. After mom yelled for her a few times, Jess finally came down. Her eyes were all red and puffy. She's been crying.
"Someone found Amanda dead on the football field. Someone killed her. They said her blood was completly drained from her body. Like a vampire." Jess broke down and started crying. Who would do something like that? And why would anyone want to kill Amanda?
