Hey! Sorry it took so long to post this chapter. (For those who like this fanfic!) One word: Homework. No need for disclaimer. Everything's mine, except for the whole vampire concept. ;) Still no French words/phrases yet!
Celui et seul ;;

The Window
I woke up in a cold sweat, shivering.
What the heck is wrong with me? Why do I keep having that dream? I used the corner of my sheets to mop up my forehead, and then shivered again. I looked around for the source of the icy breeze.
"No wonder…" I murmured sleepily. My window was open. I gotta ask mom to fix my window sometime. I thought shuffling over to close my window.
The moon was high up in the sky, stars twinkling madly around it. A cool breeze was coming off of the forest of trees a few meters away from my window, but also one story down. Instead of closing my window I leaned against the sill. This is why I moved here, it's so beautiful. I breathed in the crisp air, and then shut my window.
My name is Laurie Cahrrey and my parents are divorced. I rolled my eyes. Most people would think I'd be devastated. But actually, I'm not. I just want my parents to be happy, and I guess they are happy without each other. At least my mom seems to be over it, well, she should be since she moved all the way to a small little town near Paris! And of course I moved with her, because, well Paris beats New York, where my dad lives, any day in my opinion.
I got here three days ago. My mom was so happy that I picked her to live with; she let me pick any room I wanted to stay in. There were about 6 different bedrooms to pick out of. I ended up picking the plainest room; the other ones were too glitzy for me. The walls were a soft gold color, with dark wood paneling. There was a small turret type part of the room where my window was. My comforter was off-white suede with a ribbon that was the same gold color as the walls lining the edges of it. Of course I added my own touch to it with my fuzzy pink Squish pillow and a couple Victorias Secret pink and green polka dot and Pink pillows I got in New York. I had a mini walk-in closet that had sliding-wood doors and a desk in one corner that was dark wood with intricate floral designs etched into the top and legs of it. Lastly, there was an off-white suede love seat tucked in one corner.
I guess you can call that plain.
My mom got all this money from my dad when they divorced, and also because she was a top-surgeon at the hospital fifteen minutes away from here. My dad is just some big-shot lawyer back in New York.
My mind wandered back to my dream. I shivered again, but not because of being cold. The red eyes creeped me out, especially the fangs. I haven't had a nightmare like that since the 5th grade, and even then they were never about vampires. I've had that dream every night since I got here three days ago. In addition to the dream, every time I woke up, my window was open like tonight. I couldn't tell my mom, she would freak about the whole window part. Yawning, I laid back down on my bed, which I had currently been sitting on.
Pushing the dream out of my head, I fell asleep.
I know this chapter is short, I just wanted to get the location and basic information out of the way, and also the dream. FYI the dream has a role in the story—its not just an 'attention grabber'. ;)
REVIEW!
