Bella Dreams
More rain. How is it possible that it can rain so much? You think the clouds would have dried up by now! I miss Arizona. I was sitting on my bed staring out the window. My dad was downstairs undoubtedly watching the game on t.v. I had my homework scattered out on my bed but I was finding it hard to concentrate. Every time I looked down at my work, those golden honey eyes flashed through my mind. This is not good. I have a biology project due on Friday and a math test on Tuesday. I had to concentrate.
I don't know why I felt like this. I was never into boys. I always tried to fly under the radar. I just wanted to get through the day with as little injuries as possible and I certainly did not want to bring more attention to myself. Why was I so captivated by Edward Cullen? He was just like any other boy I have met, yet I felt strangely pulled to him.
I decided that I would get up and stretch my legs for a bit and then get back to my homework. As I walked downstairs I heard the TV was on. Charlie was, as I predicted, watching the game. I walked into the living room and took a seat beside my dad.
"Hi Bells." My dad said.
"Hey. What's going on." I replied.
"Hard day at work. A security guard at the mill was killed today. I spent all day there talking to people. Unfortunately, no one seemed to know anything. It looks like an animal attack though." My dad said, looking at me.
"An animal?" I repeated.
"It sure doesn't look human. Don't worry though. In the meantime, promise me you will be careful? No wondering in the forest alone until we know what we are dealing with."
"Okay." I replied. "Well, I better get back upstairs to my homework. Night."
"Night Bella." My dad said.
I turned to go upstairs. "Bella?" My dad said. I turned around and faced him. "I'm really glad you are here. I missed you." he said.
"Me too dad. Goodnight" I said, giving him a small smile.
I walked back up the stairs and I opened my door. I sat back down on the bed and sighed. I finished my homework at a snails pace and then threw it all on the floor in an unorganized mess. I pulled out my Ipod and turned it on. I laid back on my bed and stared at the ceiling, listening to the lyrics of the song play inside my head. I concentrated on the music, trying to drown out all other thoughts.
I suddenly felt like I was falling. As I fell, I descended faster and faster and I knew that the ground was close……
I woke up with a start. It was dark. I looked around the room and I saw a shadow by my rocking chair. I squinted my eyes, trying to focus. I saw the eyes. The honey golden eyes that has had me mesmerized all weekend. Is Edward Cullen was in my room?
I turned over and turned on my light and quickly looked back to my chair. It was empty. My subconscious is playing tricks on me. I don't even know why I entertained the thought that Edward was in my room. No, he's at home in his own bed. Sleeping.
I looked around my bed. I had a blanket over me that did not belong to me. I don't even remember getting this blanket out of the linen closet. My Ipod was on my nightstand and again, I had no idea how it got there. I must have turned it off and put it there when I was on the brink of falling asleep. I turned off the light, laid back down and pulled the blanket around me.
I silently hoped that I my dreams would return to Edward Cullen.
