I awoke in my bedroom to see Lance sleeping next to me. I jumped out of my bed, startled, but ended up falling to the floor. My knees were bandaged and in pain. Lance woke up from the thud of me falling. I glanced at him, and my heart stopped. He even looks stunning with messy bed hair. My heart fluttered.
"Are you alright?" He asked, and he looked like he was going to laugh.
"Ye...Yeah." I said mumbling. He burst out laughing. Why was he laughing? I than looked to the left to find my body mirror there. I saw my reflection. My make-up was smudged and my hair looked like a afro. I screamed and rushed to the bathroom.
I took a shower and changed into a pair of shorts with a T-shirt. I slowly creek the door open. I didn't see Lance in sight, so I thought he was gone. I crept to the kitchen to see Lance making pancakes.
"Hello!" He said smiling, as he put the pancakes on the kitchen table.
"Uhm..." I said slowly pointing at the pancakes.
"I made you breakfast. I thought you'd be hungry. Plus your hurt so I made it for you." He said setting the table. I looked at him and walked over to him and poked his shoulder. He jumped back, covering his shoulder with his hand. I looked at him worried.
"Are...Are you hurt?" I asked looking at his shoulder.
"No...No, you just startled me, that's all." He said and gave me a reassuring smile. I knew he was lying, but didn't say anything.
After we got done eating, he plopped the book of Forgotten tales onto the table. He opened the first page of the book and spun it around so I could see it. One of the pages was filled! I grabbed the book and looked closely to see the Wicked Witch of the West painted onto the page.
"We...We got one fairy tale! Or I should say, you got one fairy tale!" I said smiling at him, and he smiled back.
"Now only 49 more to go." He said
"49...that's not to far..." I said frowning. Lance put his hand on the book and closed it. Than the door bell rang.
"Trisha!" I heard Lola yelling. I opened the door as Lola practically ran over me and went into the kitchen. Oh no! What about Lance! She will find him! My body froze.
"Trisha!" Lola yelled again. She must of found him. "Where is all your food?" Lola said peeking out from the kitchen door. I sighed in relief.
"My mother is out grocery shopping, but if you want we can go somewhere." I said acting as like nobody was over.
We walked out the door, and closed the door and before I closed it, I glanced at the book of Forgotten Tales on the kitchen table. I smiled and laughed.
"What's so funny Trisha?" Lola wondered.
"Oh, nothing." I said smirking.
This Forgotten Tales thing isn't so bad after all. It might turn out to be some fun adventure. Lets see where this leads me.
"Hurry!" Lola said, I laughed and ran past her and yelled.
"I will race you to town!"
This is going to be one exciting adventure.
