I woke up with sweat beads on my forehead. I felt clammy and cold at the same time, not a good combination. Beside my bed was an unusual yellow line. I followed the mysterious yellow with my eyes and it took me to the window. It suddenly clicked in my mind and I jumped up. I looked out the curtains and sure enough there was bright yellow circle in the sky I had missed. I could feel the warmth off the glass of the window. There were still too many clouds in the sky for the weather reporters to guarantee no rain and it certainly wasn't hot enough for shorts.
Charlie was eating breakfast when I went downstairs. "You seem happy today." Apparently my good mood was visible as well.
"It's a nice day." I said. I looked at the clock and realised I still had an hour until school. "I'll cook up some lasagne for you and put it in the fridge. You just have to heat it in the microwave for two minutes. Charlie nodded and left for work. I sat down and ate my bowl of cereal. I left for school straight away wanting to soak up the sun.
Once I got to school, I sat at one of the wooden picnic tables. No one was at school yet except for the teachers. I rested my head on the table and felt the sun warm me up. I thought about Edward, which was no surprise. His note was in my pocket. He was right. I was so involved with him, he had the right to be rude to keep me away. Well I will stay away from now on so he won't have to put up with me. My good mood was flattened a bit but not enough to put me in a bad mood. Suddenly my warmth was cut off but I sudden cool and I was able to look up without the sun blinding me. Angela was standing shyly at the end of the table. I smiled up at her.
"Angela, hi! You're early." She bit her lip and nodded awkwardly. The voices around me floated to my ears and I looked at the students around me. "Oh I guess you're not early." I laughed. Angela sat on the other side of the table.
"So you're coming tonight?" Angela asked.
"Yeah I'm looking forward to it." I replied and it was one hundred per cent true. I was surprisingly excited to go out. Maybe it was just the thought of getting out of Forks.
"Oh that's good, um can I tell you something." She asked and bit her lip again. She was worried about something by the looks.
"Sure, anything." I replied.
"Okay well I don't mean to be a... gossip or anything but I feel you have a right to know. Jess has been talking about you to Lauren. She doesn't really... like you." She bit her lips again. "Wow that sounded really bad... I'm sorry!"
"No no, it's okay I don't mind. Really. I kind of got that feeling anyway." I smiled in return though Angela's unsure expression didn't fade. I began looking around and I knew who I was looking for. Edward. I don't why I'm bothering since I'm avoiding him anyway.
"The Cullen's don't come to school on sunny days, they go hiking and other outdoorsy stuff." Angela nodded and looked away. We went to class in quiet.
At lunch I looked at the empty table where they usually sat hoping they would be there but no luck came my way for the rest of the day.
That afternoon Angela and Jessica followed me home in Jess's car so I could quickly grab my purse.
I took five minutes to snatch up some money from my box and I was out the door ready for a good night out.
