It began with a Fortune Cookie
Chapter 1: Watched
Angel was at Oriental Inn with her best friends celebrating her 16th birthday 2 weeks late.
"I want Chicken Curry." Rick, her long time crush whined.
"Well I want the Chicken Chowmein." She retorted.
"Nick and Samantha weren't kidding when they said that you two argue like a married couple." Rose, Angel's best friend in the whole world, said.
Angel blushed at Rose's statement but just continued on with her argument. The two squabbled like a married couple for 5 minutes over what she was going to order for everyone.
"Ready to order?" The waitress asked.
"Yes, we'd like to have Shrimp Fried Rice, Sweet and Sour Pork, and your Chicken Chowmein." Angel said while giving Rick the 'I win' look.
The friends ate their food and were opening their fortune cookies.
Angel's read 'Someone new will come and love you'
Rose's read 'Watch out you have much work to do'
Edgar's read 'Something will happen that will lighten your spirits
and Rick's read 'Time is the important essence'
Later that night Angel told Rick that she liked him. After that she was depressed for a reason and went into her anime collection and watched Yu Yu Hakusho for 6 whole days.
1 Month later . . . .
It was the night before the first day of school. She was putting out her school clothes when she heard her mother walk into the house with Oriental Inn. Her and her 2 younger sisters sat down and ate with chopsticks happily. When it came to the fortune cookie she just grabbed it and placed on her dresser to eat later. When it came to 2AM she got out of her bed, for she couldn't sleep, and ate her fortune cookie as well as the left over rice. She looked at her fortune and 'Hmph' in a 'I wish it were true manner'.
It read 'Someone from an unusual place that you admire will sweep you off your feet'
When it came to 5 in the morning she woke up and noticed that her parents and sisters were gone. But then remembered that they were taking her sisters to Wal-Mart for some school supplies they forgot to get the night before.
"Good I can get ready and not get a headache. Hello Junior year of high school." She said happily while grabbing her clothes and heading towards the shower not knowing that someone was watching.
After showering she noticed that she forgot her bra and was walking back to her room with her towel around her, but when she saw what time it was she freaked.
"5:55!!!!! SHIT!!!!! I'm going to be late for the bus!!!!" She yelled before stepping on the gas and running to her room and getting dressed.
She was now in the bathroom brushing her teeth and brushing her hair.
"No one better call me a nerd this year. If anyone calls me one I'm going to kill them." She said to the mirror before spitting.
"Oh yeah talking about beating up I have to kill Tom for what he did to Edgar. Maybe that'll put my temper at ease." She said to herself while putting her mid-back length brownish/black hair into a ponytail.
"Then when I get home I can watch the new Yu Yu Hakusho boxset I bought. What a day. I can't wait to come home." She said to herself as she grabbed her housekey and her bookbag.
"Meow." A cute black and white kitty said.
"No Patch you're an indoor cat. Plus I have to go to school. Be good ok? Bye" She said after kissing the cute cat on the bridge of its nose.
As soon as the door closed and locked the person watching her jumped down from the ceiling and startled the cat. His red eyes looked at the cat that was hissing for a moment but then came up to his leg and rubbed against it. He looked back at the door and was wondering how he ended up here. He went to the door opened it and locked it behind him as he closed it. He saw a school bus stopping and got on top of it and watched his new surroundings pass by him. He heard Angel's voice and listened.
"He moved? You poor baby." Rose said.
"I know. You know what's strange though? Look at this fortune I opened last night." Angel said handing her best friend the fortune.
"Someone from an unusual place that you admire will sweep you off your feet?" that sounds romantic but you're trying to get over Rick still." Rose said.
"He was my best friend. And although he said that he liked me I know that it wouldn't work anyway. I can't believe I'm saying that. Erk! I'm going to cry again." She said.
"Hey crying isn't all bad." Rose said giving her friend a tissue.
"I don't need it. I hate it when I cry. It makes me feel weak." Angel said.
"Hey Angel? What's wrong?" David, another friend of Angel's asked.
"Nothing David. It's nothing." Angel lied.
"Where's your glasses?" Rose asked.
"Right here. I'm putting them on now. I was in such a hurry today. I was daydreaming while I was taking my shower and didn't snap out until I almost have taken an hour long shower." She moaned while her head hit the seat in front of her.
"Couldn't sleep huh?" Rose asked.
"Yup." Angel replied as her stomach growled loudly.
"You didn't eat either? Dang you've must have been distracted." Rose said.
"I'll just buy a bag of cheetos when we get to school. As well as a Dr. Pepper." Angel said before falling asleep.
Rose awoke Angel when the bus stopped in front of the school. He jumped off the top of the bus and landed in a nearby tree. He saw a large Mexican guy hug the seemingly smaller Angel.
"Nick!" She squealed.
"Hey. How was your summer?" Her friend asked.
"Sucked." Angel answered bluntly.
"By that my guess is that you didn't get laid." He said with a smirk.
"Ecchi!!!" Angel yelled hitting her friend.
He smirked while watching the friends exchange greetings. He jumped down from the tree and went into the front office. He tried to sign up but growled in anger when they said he needed legal documents saying he was who he was. He turned heel and just watched the whole school day for the friends. They reminded him of his friends and himself. The bell rung and they scrambled to their homerooms to get their schedules.
"Great . . . . I have Geometry honors first and it's the teacher from hell from the 9th grade." Angel muttered.
As she was walking to her first class after taking the teacher's papers to the office she spotted Tom. Taking sudden interest into the darker shade of her eyes as she walked up to the brown haired teen he watched as she slammed him into the hard wall.
"Fuck around with me or my friends again I'll kick your ass Reams." Angel growled.
"Like you can do anything." The boy retorted.
"How about I make you unable to have kids huh? I'm pissed off enough to where I want to castrate you and then burn you alive but I'll let you live so you will heed my warning." Angel said shoving the boy to her side and walking towards class.
"Bitch." tom said.
"Proud of it." Angel said waving back to him with her middle finger.
'Too much like Yusuke.' He thought as he watched Angel walk to her math class.
"Hi Mrs. Moore." She said to her math teacher.
"Oh yes Ms. Hikaru I have you this year. Hopefully you'll do better than in the 9th grade. You struggled a lot." The teacher said.
"I had a teacher last year that no one liked but I passed her class with A's." Angel said taking her seat in front of the teacher's desk.
'Bit like Keiko.' He thought while watching from the roof the two talking.
During lunch since there were so many students he walked with the crowd. He saw Angel listening to her CD player while walking towards the library. Angel was listening to her J-pop music while walking to the library when she saw something that caught her eye. A guy that looked just like a character from Yu Yu Hakusho.
'Man I'm obsessed with that show. I need to get to studying.' She thought as she walked onto the stairs.
Following her he saw her take a seat at a table and take out her Geometry book and read it. Lunch still had thirty minutes left but Angel got up and walked out of the library and put her headphones over her ears and turned the volume up loud. Her favorite cd was in.
With his good hearing he could hear the music she was listening to. Angel was walking towards her next class when she saw many couples passing by her. She felt herself tear up from this.
"Why do they always have to NOT enforce the PDA rules?" He heard her whisper with a broken voice.
Feeling alone she walked to where she couldn't be bothered. She pulled a notebook out of her bookbag and started to write. She was an Authoress on a popular fanfiction site and her stories consisted of romance and fluff.
"When all this time I've been so hollow inside. I know you're still there." She mumbled along with her cd.
When school ended he was following Angel. Angel saw that her family wasn't home and opened the door. She felt a quick breeze brush by her, which made her shiver for a moment. She went in and put her Evanescence cd into the stereo and turned the volume up as she went to change into her more comfortable clothes. As she changed a large black cat came up and rubbed itself against her leg.
"Oh Luna. Hey girl. How was your day?" Angel asked petting her fat cat.
The large cat meowed and then ran to the kitchen. Pulling her hair out of its ponytail and putting her silver chain around her neck she walked towards the kitchen and refilled the cat's food dish. He watched her come back into the livingroom in all black. She was in black jeans, a black shirt, black trench coat-like thing, and silver chain around her slightly pale neck.
"Man I still have the feeling I'm being watched." she said to herself as Patches came onto her lap.
As she petted her cat she looked up at the ceiling and saw him there. She felt herself close her eyes and scream. There was an intruder in her house. He jumped down and covered her mouth. When she opened her eyes she saw red ones looking into hers. Her scream died out as the guy removed his hand from her mouth.
Little did the 16-year-old know that this guy came from somewhere her heart wished she could go to . . . . to escape her nightmare of her life.
