Chapter Four
Thanks so much for all of your reviews :)
When I'd arrived home and had slouched down on my couch with a book in my hand, I decided that today would be the first day of my forget-Edward-Cullen-completely plan. I might as well not think about him until Saturday, I told myself. It was no use getting stressed over something I couldn't control, so it would be best to completely wipe him from my mind. It should be easy, I hadn't thought of him this much since High School so it should take no effort at all to keep my mind off him as I had for the last three years.
Right?
It didn't exactly work out like I'd hoped…
Monday:
Phew, that's the ironing done. I held my blue blouse up to the light and admired its creaseless state. It was my favourite shirt, and I always felt more confident when I wore it. I wonder if Edward would have liked me a lot more if I wore this shirt instead of those stupid cardigans during high school, I thought before I could stop myself.
Crap, well there's always tomorrow.
Tuesday:
I could feel the sweat gathering on my forehead as I ran at a pace faster than I usually did, on my treadmill, and wondered how long I'd been working out for. I checked my watch quickly.
Thirty minutes? Holy shit, music really did make you forget what you were doing. I pressed the stop button with a huff and was just about to turn my iPod off when a Linkin Park song started playing. Before I knew it I was singing along to the lyrics and was dancing up and down my apartment to no end, my hands flailing around me precariously as I tried to move to the beat. I wonder if Edward still likes Linkin Park, I mused.
Shit, I did it again!
Wednesday:
The images on the TV screen flickered as I kept lazily changing the stations.
"No, no, no," I muttered as I continually pressed the skip button on the remote, none of the stations interesting me at all.
'Ah hah!' I thought as one of my favourite movies of all time came on.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire never got old.
I leaned back into my comfortable lounge and smiled as one of my favourite characters in the movie, Cedric Diggory, appeared on screen.
"Hmmm," I pondered. "Is it just me or does that dude look like Edward? He kind of acts like Edward too. So noble and kind and…," I trailed off, realising what I was saying.
First talking to myself and then comparing Edward to a fictional character?
I needed therapy, or at least a roommate.
Next chapter will be up tomorrow... if people review. Come on, more than fifty people are following this story, can't you all take one second out of your time and please review? *smiles hopefully*
Please?
