As I walked threw the door, I placed my coat on the coat hanger and ran upstairs to my bedroom. I threw my car keys on my nightstand, sat on my bed and cracked open the book. I planned to scan the book and check to see if it was published by the actual author of the twilight series.
After a few minutes I realized it had Stephenie Meyers name spelled correctly and that it has the copyright written in the book just like in all the other series.
So what does this mean? That the book was actually written by Stephenie Meyer and was accidentally put on a shelve in the book store? But that would mean that the quote that stated that Stephenie said the book was a true story would mean that…. IT'S A TRUE STORY! Holy crow this can not be, it's impossible, or is it?
This was just all too much for me to take in. It is almost 12 at night. So I decided to go to sleep and try and not think about today. As I fell in to unconsciousness I drifted into a dream.
It was dark. I couldn't see anything. There was a faint whisper that continued to increase every second. It was the sound of a male. He kept saying my name.
"Zoey" it called from a distance.
Then there was a light glowing far ahead. I was able to see my features now and the feature of the boy calling my name. As the light started to increase the facial features of the rather taller boy were becoming clear. He looked familiar. He smiled this crooked smile and these topaz colored eyes that just bore into you .I had come to realize that this was Edward Cullen. The handsome vampire from the novel Twilight. He was so much more beautiful than I had ever imagined. He continued to smile. But at what? I turned to see what was behind me, but it was just darkness. I turned around and Edward's face was about 3 cm away from mine. I felt his cool breath against my cheeks that were on fire from blushing so hard. Slowly he was coming in closer. He said my name once more almost against my lip.
"ZOOEYY, you are going to be late for school. Wake up." Said my mother while she tried to wrestle the cover away from me.
"I'm going, calm down." I scolded at my mother.
She left the room. I got up and faced the mirror so I could tame the mess that was atop of my head. I saw the black circle under my green gray eyes and started to remember the events that took place in my dream.
"That was superb. Darn you mother" I whispered to myself.
I walked to bathroom and started the shower and cleaned myself quickly. I stepped out of the shower dried myself, put my under garments on and ran across the hallway to my room and locked the door. I stood in front of my closet and started at my lifeless clothes. I grabbed my favorite band T- shirt with my favorite band on it Muse and I grabbed a pair of jeans and slipped on a pair of converse. I looked at the
mirror and made sure that my hair was down in loose curls and not one big mess and headed down stair for breakfast.
"Hey Zoey, who is Edward?" My little brother said curiously.
"I do not have a clue. Why do you ask?" I said worried.
"Because you kept saying his name last night. I ran to your room but no one was in there and you were dead a sleep. So it must have been a dream."
"I have no clue what you are talking about" I said blushing.
"Well maybe this will refresh your memory."
Just then my little brother took out his video camera that my parents got him for his birthday and hand it to me. On the small screen I saw me dead asleep and I listened to what I was saying.
"Ed-d-d-ward" I heard my shocked voice from the camera.
"Why you little twit come here" I jumped out of my chair and ran after my little brother. He already knew so he was on the run before me and got to his room in time and locked the door.
"Come on out you little nerd" I screamed out in the top of my lungs.
"Zoey, stop trying to kill your little brother now get going before you get yourself and Elena late to school." My mom screamed from downstairs.
I went down stairs, grabbed my coat and entered my car. As I sat in my beat up truck a shiny car went zooming by way to fast that I couldn't even make out the model of the car. There was a sense of mystery in the air, but I ignored it a drove off to Elena's house. After a few minutes I got to Elena's house and saw her sitting at the steps of her house with an aggravated face.
"You're late" said Elena while getting in the car.
"Yeah I know. I had to take care of my little brother"
Meanwhile back home
Zoey's mom finds her little brother Trevor being hung by his underwear behind his bedroom door. :
Back to Zoey and Elena.
"That is very nice of you" Elena said smiling
"I know" I flashed a crooked smile, nothing compared to the beautiful crooked smile I saw in my dreams last night and speed off in the car making Elena jump nervously off her seat.
We finally reached the school and I parked in student parking and I noticed that same shiny car that went flying past my house earlier this morning. The windows were tinted pitch black so I couldn't see who the owner of the car was. The engine was then revived and the car took off back toward my house and still I wasn't able to see what make the car was. But something in my gut told me it was a shiny Volvo just like Edward Cullen. Me and Elena stepped out of the car and headed for the entrance were Elena meet up with her boyfriend and walked to the north wing of the school together, while I walked towards the east wing of the school by myself. I kept looking around thinking that something was just going to happen or that I was going to meet someone. But I reached my class already and nothing happened. I had Italian, the class I am doing the worst in. I sat in my seat next to the window were you could see the entrance of the school. Then Mr. Cruz stood in front of his desk and discussed the class work that he made one of the "teachers pet" pass out. As I received my handout, I saw a familiar figure walking from the entrance of the school. It looked like ….. But it couldn't be. I looked back down at my work and waited for the bell to ring.
The rest of the day was cold and boring. Not much to remember. It is lunch time and I had to go to the main office and switch out of my P.E class, because I had "medical problems". Well, not really I was just getting hurt a lot. But I made my mom sign a slip to drop the class. I was about 10 feet away from the office door when that same familiar figure walked out of the office, I could tell it was a younger man from the clothes he was wearing. But I couldn't see his face which he was blocking with the hood of his sweater. I tried quickening my pace to see if I could get a closer look. Something told me to do so. I was going to fast and I bummed in to a student and new what was coming next. I was about to hit my head against the cool marble floor below me. I closed my eyes in preparation and waited for the impact. After a few seconds I was wondering why my head wasn't throbbing in pain, and I realized I was being held by someone. I opened my eyes to look at the person that caught me and I saw his eyes, those topaz eyes. But they disappeared just as I looked into them. He was gone. Edward Just left.
I sat on the floor in front of the office door dazed. I couldn't believe what just happened. Just in time Elena came and helped me up.
"What happened? Why were you on the floor? Are you ok? Can you speak to me?" She said worried
"Huh, sorry I just fell."
"Oh, what are you doing here?"
"I have to go and give this paper to get out of P.E" I said almost zombified.
"Typical you, have to get yourself out of P.E just because you're not as athletic as other people." She chuckled while leading me into the main office." Now hurry up before we get stuck eating the leftovers rather than that yummy warm pizza."
I gave my paper to the curly red headed lady that sat in front of the desk with her eyes glued to the computer. She seemed a little dazed too. This just made me think of doing the unthinkable.
"Uh Ms….. New berry" I said glancing at her name plate placed atop her desk." Did you see a boy wearing a sweater just walk in here?" I had to ask.
"Uhh yes he is a new student but he won't be attending till tomorrow. Why do you ask?"
"Uhh...no reason, can you give me his name?"
"That's classified information sweetheart" she said with a smile on her face
"Oh no it's just that my…. COUSIN is coming here and told me he was signing up today."
"Oh well what's your cousin's name and ill tell you if that was him"
"Uhh…. Edward?"
"Yes, that was him name"
My heart just skipped a beat.
"Thanks for your help" I said stuttering.
"No problem."
Elena and I walked out of the office. She seemed a little confused.
"Wait a minute, you don't have a cousin. What was that all about?" Elena said curiously.
"I do too have a cousin, and don't worry about it."
"Zoey, the only cousin, which you have never meet in your life, you have lives in Spain and speaks nothing but Spanish. There is no way your cousin could possibly live her and understand a word."
"Uhh… ok I just wanted the name of the person because he saved me from doing a face plant on the floor and I wanted to say thank you by getting his name." I smiled innocently hoping she would buy it.
Elena narrowed her eyes."Ok Zoey, whatever you say."
We continued to walk back to the patio area to join are other friends for lunch. Elena got mad at me because she ended up eating leftovers rather than a nice hot pizza. I apologized to her and told her that she could come to my place for dinner and I will cook a nice hot pizza. She smiled and walked away to her class. It was time for P.E and the usual will happen. We will play volleyball, I will suck and I will fall in my face. So I faked that I was feeling sick to Coach Brandy and sat on the bleachers and watched the game.
The bell finally rung and it was time to go home. Elena meet me at my car and we started to leave. Before I backed up I glared at the empty parking spot that used to have that beautiful shiny car, which could possibly be a shiny Volvo that belonged to the most beautiful creature that I have ever laid my eyes on .Elena blasted my radio, waking me from my day dream and screamed at me to back up already.
So I back up and I started to head for my house so I could make Elena her stupid hot pizza she has been nagging to me about since we got to lunch.
