She had to sit through the whole entire movie, frustrated that all her friends were just drooling over Murtagh. She was angry for two reasons, no one really paid attention to the main characters, and second Melody had lectured her. Melody didnt even like Eragon, none of them had even ever read the book so whats the point. She only wanted to watch it to make her seem cool so that when people asked her if she had read Eragon she could just pretend that she knew everything from the movie. But what she didntt know was that the movie chops everything up. Oh...this will be fun. I could tell her..but I dont feel like it at the moment, She schemed in her head. That should teach her to yell at Shayy.
This was a little harsh, but she didnt care. Another thing, she doesnt take jokes or attitude very well. This is where her big mouth came in, she usually spat things out without thinking about it.
"Hey Melody?" She glanced into the lone living room with the lights turned down where she saw her friend kneeling to the floor, just about to remove the CD from the DVD player. All her other friends had went home, turns out her girls night out wasnt going to be a late one after all.
"yeah," She looked up.
"I-I was wondering if I could borrow the Eragon movie." She twiddled her fingers getting nervous.
"Why?" She stood up straight.
"Umm well because someone was talking through the movie." She lied.
"Who?" Her face showed pure confusion and she was sure that melody hadnt bought her lie.
"ME-" She said quickly, remembering stupidly that Melody had been in the same room with her.
"You?" She surveryed her.
"yes me. I-I was talking to myself while the movie was on..I got a little side tracked, you know me-crazy." She shook her head and gulped hard.
"Fine." She said as the little disk spot of the movie popped out. Melody just used her leg to push it back in. "its in there," She nodded and walked past Shayy and out the door. She wasnt offended, she would see her again in a few days, no need to say any soppy goodbyes now.
Her parents would be home anytime soon. Shayys parents were udnerstanding and had apprently been 'experienced' with days like this in their younger times. While her parents had been explaining how they had 'raised the roof with their partying' she had sat, grimacing and waiting for them to finish. They all agreed to take her little brother Dash around town untill they felt like it was an appropriate time to come back so Shayy would have her privacy. once again, Shayy didnt treat this once ina lifetime fact to its advantage.
She crept up to her room and shut the door. For some reason she kind of felt dirty looking at the movie twice, as if she was looking through it just to watch Eragon. She wasnt...just yet.
She popped the cd into the DVD player above her dresser. She glanced around her room at the numerous teen posters and jewelery. Her room seemed really weird when people werent in. She was so used to having either a friend sleepover or just hangout. That would explain why she was always tired.
Her colour scheme for her walls were a light green; her favourite colour. It reminded her of autumn. her walls were Green but all her acessories were either brown, lighter shade of brown, and either white or black. It is very weird colours but the way her mom obssessed over every little detail her room always had to be clean and proper.
She jumped onto her bed hugging a pillow and lay flat on her stomache with the remote. She hesitated, staring at the blank tv. Did she really want to see who that person was? She ahd always been afraid of things that she didnt understand. Maybe she should call someone? She reached for the phone but put it down immediately,
No chicken, just play the stupid thing, She lectured herself and pressed the play button. This wasnt the time to be watching movie and playing around so she quickly held up the remote and pressed the fast forward button. She watched carefully, peering at the whizzing sceens passing by looking for the exacte moment. There, She pressed pause a little to fast.
She slowly got out of the bed, afraid, grabbing the pillow. She hesitantly started walking towards the tv. Putting her face lose to the screen she kept jerking back almost like somethine was going to jump out at her any moment. Finally, she had to put her nose so close that she felt the static electricity and her hair starting to stick up.
She saw her breath form tiny circles on the dusty surface. She stared at stared. All of a sudden she jumped back as the sound came on and the tape started to play. She screamed like a little girl and flew back, landing on her behind. She looked up at her bed, to see the remote untouched; sitting exactly where she out put. She breathed heavily, staying on the ground. The scene played out infront of her and all she could do was stare.
She finally got the guts to get up and check the remote. She picked it up and peered at it. None of the buttons were stuck, like she had predicted. None of the buttons were flashing as she had hoped. She also crossed her fingers that the remote had somehow crashed and needed to restart so it had to replay the previous actions. She still beleived this, even though she knew it could never be true.
She stared, confused at the remote then without furthur ado, she started pounding it, smacking it like that would help. Then she point it at the tv with grace and pressed the pause button. She gave a gasp of excitement.It worked. She lowered the remote, but just as she did, the movie went to play once again. This time she marched furiously, smile wiped off her face, up to the tv. She glanced the remote with the utmost anger. She started banging the tv now. Hitting the side with open palms. The weirdest thing happened. The volume bar, started raising and falling. She glared at the remote, her fingers were no where near the source. She dropped it on the hardwood floor, not caring if it chipped of anything and started pulling on the tv. It slide with ease and she turned it around. She checked all the cables and satisfied, she turned the tv back around.
She was staring at a face, she didnt know wheter to cry or to scream, so she did both. As her tears slid to the back of the tv, where the electrical cords were, they sparked. She ceased and looked at the tv. Nothing, blank. She did the stupidest thing possible and went to touch on of the control buttons. With every second as her finger got closer and closer, she kept telling herself, Dont touch it, dont touch it, But her body kept easing her on. It was her like her brain was saying no, but her hand was saying yes. She eased closer, the power button was so close. At the moment that her fingers touch the power button, nothing happened, she sighed with releif. But as her finger left the button there was a few sparks and she felt a shock go through her. She couldnt let go of the button! The hairs on her back of her neck stood up. She couldnt even move. Help, I dont want to die like this! She meant to say on the outside, but it came out in the inside instead. She closed her eyes, ready to accept death, but it never came, just the horrible pain. She felt the tears stream down her cheek and everything blanked out.
Theres the update, hope you liked it. I tried to make it not seem like one of those corny ways for her to end up in The story with Eragon. So here we go. Please review :) THANK YOU -3
