Hello, so I was threatened by a certain someone to update so here it goes. So think of this as an early New Year's gift. Thank you to everyone who reviewed and I appreciate the advice. I do hope you enjoy the new chapter.
Story Begins
Anne's POV
My eyes fluttered open before closing them again due to the bright light as I lay in bed, the bed was very warm and it moved? I opened my eyes to find my head leaning on Leah's arm. Her arms were wrapped around my waist; I smiled and watched her peaceful form. I tenderly ran my hand along her narrow nose, her high cheek bones and her soft lips. Her hand lifted up and wrapped around mine. I looked up to find her brown eyes open still clouded with sleep from the night.
"Good Morning", I whispered and she gave a sleepy smile.
"Hi there", she kissed my hand and I smiled again. I sat up in bed and stretched til my back gave a satisfying crack. The light of the day peeked through the curtains. It was one of those rare days in Forks where the constant clouds and rain went on a holiday. I kicked my legs off the side of the bed and as I went to push myself up arms wrapped around my waist and I was pulled back. I grunted as I landed in between Leah's leg with my back pressed against her chest.
"Leah", I whined and she chuckled nuzzling her nose into my neck. I giggled softly and turned around kissing her. She entangled her fingers into my hair and we continued to kiss more passionately til the phone rang.
"Don't get it", Leah said between kisses. I pulled away reluctantly and patted her side.
"It might be important", I shimmed out her lap and jogged out the room. I slid down the banister and into the living room lifting up my phone. "Hello", I stated more chipper than I usually am.
"Hello is this Anne?" said the feminine voice as I twisted the phone cord in between my fingers.
"Yes this is she who might this be?" I said politely as I began leaning against the phone table.
"Hello Anne, this is Cassie", my eyes light up and I nodded forgetting I was on the phone.
"Oh Cassie, hello again I'm sorry I forgot", Cassie was a woman working at the library who needed help with the computers at the Forks library.
"Haha it's fine, well I went over your resume you sent it and I was wondering if you'd like to come in for an interview", I did a little dance and grinned.
"I'd love to", I heard her shuffle papers around in the background.
"Good, good when do you think you can come in", she asked. I looked up in thought.
"Well anytime is good actually", I admitted.
"Is today too soon", I looked at the clock behind my head. The clock glowed 10:30
"No not at all, what time?" I began to run through things I needed to do to get ready.
"How about one?" she suggested.
"That's perfect"
"Wonderful! I'll see you than Anne", she hung up before I could say goodbye. I ran up the stairs.
"LEAH, LEAH", I jumped into the bed giggling happily. She smiled at me
"What is it?" I hugged her tight.
"I got an interview! Oh I have to hurry I need to get everything ready", I didn't notice but Leah tried to kiss me but I jogged out the room. Her face turned solemn and she looked down sadly.
One o' clock
I moved the nonexistent wrinkles out of my skirt and fixed the collar on my shirt. I wore a purple button down shirt open just a little and a black skirt that was two inches down from my knee. Black heels sat on my feet and my hair was pulled into a high pony tail. I gave a shaky sigh and looked from my reflection in the library glass door to a door that creaked open.
I expected an old spinster woman with lots of frumpy sweaters and glasses as the head librarian but Cassie was much different. She had long blonde hair with bright green eyes she was in her early thirties. Her hair was pulled to one side and cute thin glasses perched on her button nose. She wore a skirt probably too short for a librarian and a baby top that was way too low cut.
She held out her well manicured hand and gave me a smile. "Hi there you must be Anne", I nodded and gave her a smile.
"Nice to meet you Cassie", I shook her hand and I turned to pick up my bag. In the reflection of the glass I swear I saw her eyes flutter over my body and lick her lips. I shook the thought thinking I was just seeing things.
"So Miss. Anne I see you're fresh out of college", I nodded and I sat down at the chair adjacent from her desk crossing my legs.
"Yes I just did, I went to Port Angeles University", she smiled and nodded intertwining her fingers and resting them under her chin.
"Yes well your references from Professors are certainly a very good incentive to give you this job", I nodded and watched her shuffle through papers. "The system here is a mess", I listened to her explain the systems slow movement and it always shutting down. "So, I think you deserve the job", I blinked and looked over at the clock behind her. It had only been twenty minutes of the interview. "You seem like a smart gal and you look like a keeper", her eyes glistened and I nodded again wondering what she meant.
"Can you start tomorrow?" I couldn't help but grin and she returned the jester.
"Definitely", she nodded and began to explain the job and my salary.
Next Day
Leah's POV
I open my eyes to a boom of lightening outside I looked around the room, it feeling colder than usual. I sat up looking around confused. Anne was nowhere to be found. I felt my hand hit something and it made a crumple noise. I lifted up a note from her.
Leah,
Morning baby! Sorry I had to go to work early. I hope you have a great day I left some coffee for you. I'll see you tonight after work. Oh! Your mom called and said she wants you to come visit her.
With all my heart,
Anne
I crumpled the paper up in my hand and shivered from the emptiness of the house. A cold, lonely feeling filled me and I bite down tears. I felt like something bad was going to happen soon. I just wasn't sure what was going to happen.
Thanks for reading! This chapter is dedicated to Shay. I hope you have an amazing time on your trip. Even if you're leaving me *tear* lol
