Chap 2

Unpleasant meeting

She could not concentrate during Biology, even though it was never my favorite class I didn't really have a hard time understanding it.

Today was different. I felt like I was going too miss everything. The smell, Mr. Spiese's nasal voice, sitting next too Caroline always talking about what was going on. No more of that. I was moving and there was absolutely nothing I could do about it.

"Earth too Aimee! Are you even listening too what I'm saying?" Caroline asked, with a hint of an irritated sigh.

"Ehm... I was actually trying too understand what the heck Mr. S was saying." I answered

"Sure sure," She said not believing a word I said

So that was it! They were all gonna question me in the lunch break and there was nothing I could do about it.

"... That was it for today class. See you tomorrow!" Mr. S finally said

I stood up too collect my stuff but Monica was at my desk at the speed of light.

"Lunch. Table. 3 minutes!" Was all she said

"Shoot!" I muttered under my breath this could not be good.

I hurried and got my stuff and rushed down the hall, but of course I dropped it all. As I bent down too pick them up somebody was ahead of me, already kneeling beside my books and started collecting them. I was lost at breath.

This beautiful young guy was breathtaking. His piercing blue eyes with a shade of purple was nothing like I had ever seen. His skin perfect without a flaw. Luckily there wasn't anybody else in the hall too see my shameless staring.

His lips were just perfectly shaped his upper lip reminded me of a heart, though not as round. They looked so soft and the urge too touch them were overruling everything else right at that moment. That was until I saw his hair. It was a color I had never seen before it was a mixture of silver and honey brown. His curls embraced his beautiful head and some of his neck.

His eye lashed were long and silvery. Like nothing my own fantasy could imagine. His skin had a pale olive tone to it again like something she had ever seen. 'He looks like a Greek God,' she thought too herself 'Why on earth would he want too help me?'

"Here you go..."he said in a singing voice his voice ended like a question

"Uh... em I'm..." she stuttered "My name Aimee," she had cleared her voice but she didn't fool him. She thought she heard him chuckle.

"Alex, Alex Waterfield." he said in a perfectly clear voice

"Waterfield," she whispered too herself.

"Yes, Waterfield." He said in his angel like voice

'This is so unfair,' she thought too herself. 'When I'm here every day there are no interesting guys, but when I move this total hottie. No, that cannot even describe him. This fairytale looking boy shows up. Now tell me how that is fair!'

"Uhm... Thanks." She muttered nodding towards the books.

"Pardon me?" He asked

"The books? Thank you for picking them up Alex."

"Oh, uhm yeah sure. No biggie." He said with a smile that would make girls envy Aimee

"So are you new at school," Aimee finally managed too say " Or just accidentally saw me dropping my books?"

He chuckled and said, "The last option." And then he turned around and by the time she turned too look after him he was gone.

"Oh this can not be good," she muttered to herself too stunned to actually care about Caroline

She went too her locker and put her stuff in the back. But just men she was about to close it a beautiful flower fell out.

A flower she had never seen a flower that smelled like something familiar, something she could not explain.

It smelled like home! She wondered why that was. She had never seen this flower neither smelled it before.

She picked it up and one of the torn's made a little hole in her index finger. But it was enough that a drop of blood fell onto one of the flowers leaves. She felt a urge too take a leaf and rap it around her finger even though it did not bleed anymore.

And she did and when she did she felt the tiniest of tiniest tingle in her finger. She hurried up and looked and there was nothing to see!

The little hole was gone. She felt dizzy and had a enormous urge too sit down. So she hurried too the cafeteria were to her big disappointment they were all there. Everybody, and they did not look happy. At all.

"Hey guys," she said trying to sound like she didn't notice the negative mode she failed. Again.

"Come over here sweetie we need too talk too you," Daisy said and Aimee thought she could see an apologetic look in her eyes.

Aimee tried to smile back but failed she probably just looked like somebody with cramps she thought too herself.

'Here it goes,' she thought to herself

"What's up?" she asked and tried to sound innocent and unknowing

"Why didn't you just tell us it in person?" Monica asked

'Did I already tell them?' Aimee thought to herself 'No. No I didn't what do they mean?'

"What do you mean?" Aimee asked out loud

"What do I mean?" Monica snapped with tears in her eyes " This is what I mean!" And at that note she tossed an envelope across the table.

Aimee picked it up and looked suspiciously at them all.

She opened the envelope and started reading:

'Dear Monica.

You know that I love you very much so it pains me too write this down. But I can simply not face you when I tell you this!

It will hurt to much. All the great times we have had together you were my first real friend. You were the one that introduced me too the other. And for that I am forever grateful. The sad news is that we will probably not see each other very much for a very long time.

I am moving...' the rest was all blurred out from tears and makeup

'What is this?' Aimee thought ' I haven't written this! Who has done this and why? How did this person know?'

"Aimee!" Monica almost shouted "please explain it." She almost begged

" I... I... I don't know," She stuttered " I mean I didn't write this. I don't know who did. I don't understand,"

"So does that mean that it isn't true?" Taylor asked "You are not moving? Oh man I was worried for a..." Aimee cut him off.

"No yes..." she tripped over her words "I don't know who wrote that letter. But it is true. I am moving," Her voice broke and she had to fight to keep her tears back. " I didn't know how too tell you so I guess I waited until I felt the time was right. But it never was!"

'But now it is' she thought to herself.

"Guys! I love you all so much and it hurts me that you found out this way. But you are better off knowing the truth and the whole story."

After she had told them the whole story she really started crying. And even though she tried she couldn't stop.

Daisy, Caroline, And Monica cried as well and all three for a long time. Taylor had to give in at last and shade a few tears

They all decided to ditch school the rest of the day. " Can't you stay," Caroline asked for the 100 th time.

"I wish I could, I wish I could." Her answer was again

"You know we are gonna visit you right?" Taylor said for the first time

'Don't make a promise you can't keep Taylor. Please!' She thought and he must have read it in her eyes because he took her whole body and almost crushed it against his. "I'll miss you Aimee! I really will. You are my best friend and I will always love you." He whispered into her ear, so low that even Aimee could barley hear it.

"I know. I love you too Taylor," and then she started crying again

She heard something behind her and when she turned around she saw Alex. She blinked and he was gone.

A Shiver went down her spine was she just imagining or was she really there? It must have been the heat

"Are you freezing?" Daisy asked Aimee thought she must have noticed her shiver

"No," she answered "But actually I'm a bit tired,"

"Oh" Monica said "Well we can go with you home."

"No!" Aimee answered maybe a bit too soon " I mean I think I just need some time to think."
