____________________________________
I woke up feeling rather tired and drained. I touched my eyes and felt what I was pretty sure were huge eye bags. I huffed, so much for making a good impression on the first day. I flipped my phone to check the time. It was only five-thirty in the morning and I was way ahead of schedule. I decided to give up trying to go back to sleep. Anything to avoid the nightmares that plagued me while I slept.
I moodily got off the bed and decided to plan my outfit for the day. Thank god I at least unpacked half of my luggage or else this would have been difficult. I picked out a white top that barely covered my midriff and a dark plaited short skirt that would match my new boots. I laid them out and gave them a once over before deciding on my accessories. In under an hour I was done and I still had over two hours before I needed to get ready. I was in no mood to unpack the rest of my stuff today and I was actually starting to miss Dorota or any of the housekeeping ladies. I shook my head to clear my thoughts, knowing that if I started to think along those lines I would only get homesick and worsen my mood.
A light breeze of fresh air drifted into the room and I turned around to the open window. It was still pretty dark outside with the first few rays of the sun peeking in. It was really a beautiful sight. Living in the city for so long, with skyscrapers taking up every inch of space it was hard to get a good clear view of the sky, like I did now. I smiled. I decided to go for a jog and catch as much of the sunrise as I could.
Quickly changing into a sports bra and shorts, I wrote Charlie a note saying that I went for a jog and that I would be back on time for school.
After doing a bunch of stretches, I took off along the side of the road. I was really itching to explore the forest but it seemed rather thick and dark. I decided to jog further on ahead, until there was a decent amount of light for me to make my way through the forest.
I loved feeling the wind as I ran against it, almost like a lover's caress. I closed my eyes enjoying myself as I jogged to the tune on my iPod… until I tripped over something.
Lucky for me I was a lot stronger and tougher than normal so I only had light scratches. I looked over to see what tripped me over. It was a thin pole stick. Seemed like some hiker must have dropped it on the way. As I bent to pick it up, I saw a clearing, almost like a small path, leading into the forest. I giggled. It was like a sign for me to explore it. After checking and making sure I still had time, I quickly jogged towards the path into the forest.
The forest was, beautiful, peaceful, home. That was the only feeling I could describe while I was there. I walked in further and gasped. Ahead lied a vast meadow that looked right out of a fairytale. There were many trees with their lush green leaves and blooming flowers. Little butterflies were fluttering about and I even saw one or two deer. I was in awe of the beauty.
As I was about to step into the meadow I heard a loud sound from the distance. It almost sounded like a cross between a growl and a purr. I whipped my head around and turned to find the source of the sound. My heart started to beat rapidly. It sounded like a huge cat and I was starting to chastise myself about how foolish I was to wander into a forest like this without even thinking about the dangers it could possess. The sound was starting to get closer and I was close to hyperventilating. Tears were starting to obscure my vision.
I was sure the animal was going to pounce on me. I could lightly make out bronze like colored hair from the top of the bushes. I heard another loud growl and a crash, followed by a growl that sounded like the animal was in pain. Something must have tackled it away.
I started to mutter out loud. "Thank god. I did not want to die now, especially not like this. I was not even wearing my favorite pair of underwear for crying out loud."
A light musical like laugh tinkered over as I said that. My heart skipped a beat at that sound.
"Angel," I murmured. I heard the laughter again but it was faint and I couldn't help but sigh in delight.
I stepped forward to follow the sound but a huge hand gripped my arm and stopped my movement. On a reflex I spun around and punched my attacker.
"Ow, stop that. I was only trying to help, Bells," said my attacker.
I had no idea who he was, or why he called me 'Bells.' I tightened my grip on him and demanded to know who he was.
"Jeez, Bells. It's me Jacob, Billy's son. Charlie called and asked me to bring you back in case you got lost. It's your first day of school. What are you doing here anyway? Don't you know it's dangerous out here?" He continued on without giving me a chance to talk.
He quickly overcame my strength and tugged me out towards the forest, chattering the whole way. I sighed in exasperation but made sure I was alert all the time. There was something about him that gave me the creeps and sent warning signs to get away as soon as possible.
I soon saw the outline of my house and smiled in delight. I could finally get away from this mindless chatter. Does he not get a hint that I am no way interested in him? I quickly thanked him and started to run towards my house telling him I didn't want to be late for school. As I was running towards my house, I heard his loud voice follow me. "Stay away from the forest if you know what's best for you. Some things should just be left alone".
My body shivered lightly over what seemed like a threat. I quickly bolted into the house eager to wash away the morning's excitement over a long hot shower and get ready for school. Though as much as I tried, I could not forget the musical laughter from my angel.
TBC…..
