Chapter 5: Lonely

A few weeks later~

Its nights like this that I hate; the wind whistling through the old cracks around the window and doors, while the rain battered the glass non-stop. I even hate such mornings! The clouds act as a giant grey quilt that covers up the blue sky and shining sun.

I got out of bed to the annoying beeping sound of my alarm clock and realized my room mate; Isobel, is once again no where to be seen. She must have woken up really early or once again crashed at someone else's layer.

I let out a low sigh and got dressed for the day ahead.

This school's academic properties were excellent and the teachers here were nice, it was like the perfect school, I made friends here almost as soon as I walked into my first class and I was always surrounded by them. But…no matter how many people surrounded me, I felt alone, so very alone and what I found odd was that nearly everyone here has no parents or grandparents, only their sisters and brothers who also attend here.

Breakfast passed by very slowly and I rarely paid attention to Isobel and Rya whom talked the whole time, it was surprising they even ate anything.

My group of friends; Isobel, Jace, Kat, Matt and Rya. We sit together at breakfast, lunch and sometimes dinner. Sometimes meaning they would go clubbing. I was always invited, but clubbing wasn't my… "thing". So I would just grab a good book and read till I was tired enough to sleep.

Renee and Charlie tried to email or call me every night as they had promise, but I would receive a email from them once a week or so, not that I minded. I knew they were busy.

I had English first and that went by slowly as well, it was like the teacher was talking in slow motion. The rest of the day went by similarly; the only fun subject was History.

I absolutely loved the way my teacher; Mr. Walker talked about Edwardian times, the way he described it was as if he'd actually been there. From the way people dressed to the way people walked, and finally the Spanish influenza that unfortunately killed much of the populace.

After my classes, Matt and Rya caught up to me and tried to convince me to go out with them tonight. "Aw come on Bells! Come with us, it'll be great fun!" said a excited Rya; she is so energetic you'd think she didn't ever need sleep…actually, I don't know if she does sleep.

"Ya Bells, come with us!" Matt followed Rya everywhere, maybe because they are twins but Matt is always so calm and collected, he was the exact opposite to his twin sister.

What they do share in common are their looks and that famous pout of theirs that can guilt anyone into doing anything they wanted. It wasn't everyday they used it, so they must really want me with them.

I gave in, "Fine, but I dress my self." By now, the others had joined us and I stared at Isobel as I said this. She was a very fashionable person and her wardrobe was filled with clubbing clothes. She liked to dress people for such occasions.

"Alice, is there a reason that you guys are all dressed for clubbing?" I tried to read the thoughts of all my siblings that stood in front of me but found them reciting Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. At once I knew this was Alice's doing.

"Alice Mary Cullen! If you do not want all your clothes burnt then you will tell me this instant! I am losing my patience." But all she did was rush upstairs and come back down. I found myself holding a pile of clothes.

It's not like you had any patience to begin with, just wear the damn clothes before I destroy your piano! I sighed at her thoughts and went to my room to get dressed.

This was going to be a very long night.

HAPPY NEW YEARS PEOPLE! Hope you have a nice Holiday before school starts ;D
