Chapter 8

I'm really sorry that I didn't update earlier, I'm getting really busy, so its kinda hard to find sometime and write, this might not be that good since I haven't updated in so long but just hear me out.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

Ring, Ring

Can somebody get that stupid phone?

I sat up.

Why the heck I'm I wearing my jacket, and what time is it?

"Hi, you've reached the Austin Family, we can't reach the phone right now so leave a message and we might get back to you."

Beep.

Claudia's voice on that answering machine she is so perky sometimes.

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Austin, this is Mrs. Conwell I'm the principal at La Push High, I wanted to inform you that Kimberly wasn't in any of her afternoon classes, I just wanted to inform you that this might affect her in the future. Thank you."

She never liked me, she just wants me to be just like my older sister.

I walked over to the machine, played the message and pressed delete.

I glanced at the kitchen clock.

2:30pm

Then I remembered why I was so exhausted.

There is something wrong with those wolfs in the forest.

I can't tell anybody about it either, they might think I'm a complete lunatic.

X*X*XX*X*X*XX*X*X*X*X*X

I made myself a grilled cheese sandwich .

After I was done eating it I washed the dishes I dirtied.

I sat on the couch.

Going through my jumbled thoughts.

I felt like I was reliving it all over again, my breathing became labored.

That beautiful creature growled at me, but for some reason I wanted to protect it somehow if though he could shred me into confetti it just a few seconds.

But the thing is, is that the wolf never came after me, I mean if he did I would be dead and pretty much decomposing in the forest right now. I shivered with that thought.

Trying to figure out why he didn't chase me, he could have done it but-

"KIM!" Claudia yelled at me when she walked through the door. Her hair was wet and she was bare foot holding her heels in her hands.

"WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU! WHEN THE BELL RANG I BASICALLY EMPTIED MY LOCKER LOOKING FOR THE CAR KEYS, THEN CHOSE TO WALK HOME SINCE NOBODY WAS AT SCHOOL ANYMORE! LOOK AT ME! I LOOK LIKE I GOT HIT BY A CAR!" She was mad.

Then she finally looked at me, I'm pretty sure I looked pretty bad.

"What happened to you? Your make-up is smudge, your hair is a mess you look almost as bad as I do."

Taking it in I walk up to the mirror right next to the door.

"Frankenstein's wife looks more appealing than I do right now." I said more to myself, than her.

Claudia was looking at me she looked truly worried, she knew for sure that I wouldn't ruin my outfit on purpose, and even though she wants to be a drama queen and saying that she looks worse but in reality I looked like I was dead for awhile.

Maybe I was dead, I might have died than came back to life. Oh please Kim! You sound worse than a 7 year old, that's impossible. Okay that voice did have a point.

"Kim? What happened?" Claudia asked me.

"Nothing Claudia, I just got freaked that's all. I'm going to take a shower." She just nodded her head, she seemed like she was trying to figure it out, but I'm sure as hell not going to tell her what freaked me out.

X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X

"Claudia, Kim! Dinner!" my mom called

Claudia took a shower right after me so my mom wouldn't ask any questions.

Before my mom came back from work I was in the laundry room trying to clean my shoes but it didn't work so me and Claudia threw out our shoes.

At dinner Claudia kept on looking at me, she was trying to figure out what freaked me out.

I just looked down at my food.

It was like the first time in forever that we didn't have fish we had some chicken with some mash potatoes.

After we all were done dinner I helped my mom with the dishes.

"Thank you Kim, I feel like we have been so distant."

"Hey mom it's no problem I just wanted to help for once."

"Kim remember that boy Bradley? The one who moved to California?"

"Yeah mom I remember him." How could I forget in grade 7 and 8 he was head over heels for me.

"One time when you were at a sleepover at Anna's house back in the beginning of grade 8." Yeah I remember that, when our biggest worries were if that boy would be there tomorrow, now our worries are is that boy going to be there tomorrow, looking good, and our stupid exams, I just nodded at her.

She just laughed at the memory which I'm so totally clueless about.

"Sorry Kim, well he came here, and was determined to talk to your father."

"Mom why did he want to talk to dad?" I asked while drying the plates and putting them away.

"Well Kim he wanted to take you out on a date right there and now, thinking you were in your room, your father told him if you desired to go out with him you would have just told me and I would have let you go , and then your father told him that you weren't even home. His face was priceless." My mom just started to laugh.

Then I pictured little Bradley Henderson with his glasses, braces, pimples and he was pretty short, he got the shortest straw out of the whole grade, and his face while he was talking to my dad, I couldn't help but start to laugh.

After we both stopped laughing I said " To bad he moved just a few months later, I wonder how he looks now, you never know puberty could have hit him hard."

After me and my mom were done I went up to my room even with my nap today I feel exhausted.

When I was just about to walk in to my room Claudia pulled my arm and took me to her room.

"Kim did something happened at school? I mean if Samantha or Brittney laid one hand on you I would snap them in half or get Cameron to do it for me." Sammy and Brittney look up to Claudia, she's like their goddess.

"Well they prefer to be call Sammy and Britt now, and no they did nothing to me today."

"Well I don't care what they want to be called. Their still bitches I just act nice to them."

I went to my room and got out my laptop.

I went on Facebook , damn 100 notifications. And most of it is just crap

I went to go look at my cousin Lizzy's pictures she lives in Florida I love visiting there its always sunny.

Well it looks like she has a new boyfriend, and what's with her and posting pictures of them kissing. I remember when I went there last year and she seemed shocked for some reason that I haven't had a boyfriend before well at least not a real one.

I miss her so much, she is for sure one of my best friends
