Do you know that feeling you get when your going down a rollercoaster super fast and it feels like you left your stomach back at the top? Well, that's the feeling i had at this very moment.
"Sina, are you alright in there?" asked my overprotective new foster mom for the week. Her husband and her were the kind of foster parents you get sent to when they have nowhere else to keep you. I, being seventeen, wasn't likely to be adopted any time soon, or ever.
"I'm fine, good night." I called back to her. Once i couldn't hear her anymore i quickly got out from under the covers to the pink frilly bed that i was told i had to sleep in. Yuck. The whole freakin' room was pink, it made me want to barf, i hate pink.
I was already dressed do i just walked over to my window and popped it open wide enough to junp out. I was on the first floor so it wasn't even far to the ground.
Once i was out i flipped my midnight black hair out of my face and headed off down the street through the sleeping neighborhood. The Daniels lived in the nicer part of town, where all of the houses looked exactly the same and all the yards where racked and weeded. It was the end of fall and getting a little nippy outside.
After walking for a few minutes i came to a little park hidden in the woods a ways. It was cute and quiet, a perfect place to just sit and stare at the stars, which i did every night i could. It helped to calm me down.
I saw a picnic table and went over to it. It was old and needed a new paint job but it would have to do. I laid down on top of it and just stared up at the sky.
Just then i heard a stick snap from somewhere to my left. I sat straight up and started looking around. There was a tree not too far from me and someone was stading under it.
I couldn't tell who it was, not that i knew anyone around here, i just arrived three days ago. The figure started moving slowly towards me, I knew that i would be smart to scream and run, but i wasn't afraid of some perve in the dark. Actually it took a lot to scare me.
By now the figure had come into focus, but it was only a guy, an extremely good looking guy at that. He was at least 6' 2" and he had hair as dark as mine. But i had Violet eyes, while he had deep blue. I had never seen eyes like his.
He walked over to me and just stood next to me, staring at me.
"Why are you out here alone at this time?" He finally asked me, breaking the awkward silence.
I tilted me head, "Why are you?"
He seemed to accept my answer and took a seat next to me. "My name's Damion." he said staring off into nothing.
I looked back up into the sky and thought a moment, should i tell this Damion guy my name or not? Well, i wouldn't be around for very long anyways so why not.
"I'm Sina, and i'm here to think."
He turned to me then, "Me too." then he smiled, and he had a really drop-dead-gorgeous smile.
"So, what is it that you were thinking about?" I asked in an unintrusive voice. I didn't want to be rude.
"About school tomorrow, and how I'm dreading it." He said with a scowl.
"Yeah, me too, I won't be there long though."
He seemed interested now "Why won't you be there long, are you one of those people who think they're going to die on a certain day?"
I laughed at that, "No, i'm just staying with a foster family, and i'm pretty good at making them hate me. I don't expect to be here for a month." my face fell at this, i really did try sometimes, but it just felt useless now.
"Orphan?" Damion asked after a second.
I looked at him and saw that he actually wanted to know. Which most people didn't, especially when you're already seventeen. "Yup, someone found me in an abandoned apartment when i was three, can't remember anything though."
Damion looked a little uncomfortable now so I tried to switch the subject to something else. "So where are you going to school?"
"Kenedy College, and you?"
"Same, how old are you?"
"I'm eighteen, Senior."
I wish i was eighteen already. "Seventeen, Junior."
After that we talked some more, but nothing really important just stuff, Damion was easy to talk to. He didn't seem to mind that I looked a little intimidating, that's why no one would adopt me, my eyes are and icy violet color that pierces someone when they look into them. My dark hair doesn't seem to help much either.
Damion suddenly looked down at his watch, "It's almost sunrise, you should be getting home soon, before someone notices you're missing."
"Eh, they can't do anything about it, except send me back to the orphanage, again." I rolled my eyes.
"Yes, but if they did that, then I wouldn't be able to see you tomorrow at school, and i think talking to you might make it more enjoyable." I looked up at the sky then, thinking about what he had just said.
"OK, home it is then, see you tomorrow Damion."
Once i had gotten to the edge of the park i looked back and waved to Damion who was watching me leave. "See you Sina." he said waving back. then i went back to the Daniels'
