Dusk ch4

AN: Yes! I just got some of my first hatemail, which was flipping awesome! Those of you that actually take this as a joke, a joke from an Anti nonetheless, may continue reading……

And another quick note…. Jasper is officially Heyspar now, because I was getting annoyed doing accents.

Ella's day began normally enough. She fell twice on the way to the shower, and cut her finger when she was brushing her teeth. Wandering downstairs dressed in two coats, ski pants, and mismatched wellies, Ralph looked at her strangely. "It's only 60 degrees in Sporks, Ella."

Ella glared at her father, then turned to make bacon for herself. Which obviously wasn't going to turn out well because of her clumsiness. She turned on the flame and turned to get a pan to cook her bacon in. "Ella!" her father yelled suddenly. Her jacket whipped around in front of the flame and dangled there, threatening to catch on fire.

"Oh." A thank you refused to pass between her lips and as she put the bacon in the pan, her thoughts turned once again to Edvard Schmullen. His bruised and perfectly incandescently angelic face with his seraphic voice made her want to swoon. Her knees became weak and her heart literally stopped as she thought of his beautiful self.

"Ella!" her dad called once more. She glanced up quickly, then looked back down at the bacon just as some of the grease flew upward. It splattered across her face and Ella screamed like she was dying.

"It burns! I'm dying! Tell Mom I love her! Ahhh!"

Ralph grabbed a paper towel and wiped the minimal bacon grease off her face, but Ella continued screaming like she had been shot with a Glock in the gut. "Honey are you okay?" Ralph attempted to yell over her. Her wailing got louder so as to cover his, making it seem as if she had instead been shot with a sawed off shotgun filled with BB's.

Ralph looked around confused, trying to discern what was causing her bawling. Nothing was. He sat down, leaned his head upon his hand and waited for her to stop. 6 minutes later, Ella had eventually calmed down enough to shut her mouth. "I'm just going to go to school now."

Ella walked out of the door, and Ralph stared after her a look of utter misunderstanding on his face. "I guess she's a primadonna," he muttered. Ella headed off to car in POS, and excitedly waited for Edvard in the parking lot. As a surprise, Ella had showered last night, and applied 5 coats (count 'em, 5!) coats of deodorant along with some of her father's Fierce cologne, as a surprise for the man she loved.

After waiting for a while, Ella headed off to class, saddened by not seeing him. Her soul felt as if it had been crushed and demolished. Ella was so distressed she got a math problem wrong in class. The teacher was disappointed after expecting so much more after yesterday, that Ella was given an immediate F.

Finally, lunch arrived, and Ella attempted to run to the cafeteria in excitement to see Edvard, but she ran head on into a pole. Her head smacked into it, and made a hollow sound as she collapsed to the ground. Mick was the first to help her get up. "Are you okay?" his concerned voice asked.

"Fine. Where's Edvard?" they walked into the cafeteria together, but Ella felt tears come to her eyes as she only counted 4 at the Schmullen's table. Her appetite was lost, but it wasn't from the Schmullen's strange feeding rituals. It was from the lack of Edvard. So Ella went the anorexic way and had a lemonade.

As she rejoined the jock table, everyone reintroduced themselves but Ella's attention was on the only speshul people in the room. AliSHAH was the first to turn and look quickly at her but Heyspar quickly followed AliSHAH's lead.

Ella blushed profusely as she met their eyes and Heyspar leapt up from his chair, a predatory look on his face. She immediately looked away. Edvard must have told them how bad I smelled yesterday. But I can't believe he wouldn't show up, and that his family would be that offended.

Lunch passed through well enough, except for Ella tripping 6 times on her way to the trash can and 8 times back. Mick offered to lead her to Biology class, but Ella was so depressed about Edvard's absence, she couldn't hear him speak. Depression had consumed her, and it seemed impossible that she would ever retain any of her liveliness again in this lifetime if Edvard didn't return and fulfill their love for each other. After a Biology class that was spent by Ella softly caressing the seat of Edvard's chair, Ella headed out to go grocery shopping.

She once again used her SSOD to navigate through Sporks, and bought everything she needed from the grocery store: peanut butter, guavas, tampons, toilet paper, bandages in many sizes, a massive bottle of Advil, bleu cheese crumbles, only dark green lettuce, jicama, a large steak, tortillas, chow mein, frozen queso soup, quiche, and a massive bowl of ice cream for pouting at home, and lastly, the entire deodorant display, along with the free gifts that came with it. Ella then returned home, and began preparing the massive steak, guava, and tortilla dinner she had planned for her father.
