AN: So I'm really into this again, so hopefully I'll be able to update often.
Blah, Blah, Blah (Ke$ha)
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
Coming out your mouth with your blah blah blah
Just zip your lips like a padlock
I don't really care where you live at
Just turn around boy and let me hit that
Don't be a little bitch with your chit chat…
Music's up
Listen hot stuff
I'm in love
With this song
So just hush
Baby shut up
Heard enough
Stop ta-ta-talking that
Blah blah blah
Think you'll be getting this
Nah-nah-nah
I woke up after the most amazing dream. Josh was so sweet, wait. That wasn't a dream. That actually happened yesterday. I dragged myself out of bed with a smile plastered on my face. I was ecstatic. I hadn't even thought to check the time. When I did, I realized I was up almost 2 hours early. It was pointless to go back to bed now though, I was much too happy. I decided I might as well go shower before I got distracted and ended up waiting in line. I gathered everything I would need to get ready for the day, taking my time. I could take all the time I wanted, I had an hour and a half before anyone would even consider getting up.
Even after taking the longest shower I had taken since I got to Easton, and taken more than enough time to choose my clothes for the day, I was still way too early. I still hadn't really taken a good look at the campus, so I decided since I have the time I might as well explore the things I had not yet seen.
I had planned on seeing all the things on the outskirts of campus, but ended up standing in the centre of campus, staring at the marble angel fountain as it sprouted a constant stream of crystal water. I had heard rumors, that this fountain, like every other fountain in the world, granted wishes when you threw in a coin. What the hell? I thought. what could it hurt?
I had so many things I could wish for, but most of all, I wished I could have one day away from everything, just one drama-free, school-free day with my friends. I tossed in the one coin in my pocket.
"Your wish just came true, I'm here!" I heard Thomas yell at me.
What was he doing up so early, then again, I really didn't care.
I rolled my eyes and replied with as much sarcasm as I could muster "Oh yes Thomas, my one and only wish is for you to continue stalking me."
"You say that now, but you'll come around, they always do." Thomas replied, thankfully picking up on the sarcasm for once.
I ignored him and began walking away from all of the dorms, toward some of the less used class buildings. Thomas wasn't worth the time it would take to make a comment of any kind, especially beginning an argument.
"Aw, come on, Reed. Just come over here and do what we both know you're aching to do." Thomas yelled after me.
Thomas assumed I was going to go over there and kiss him. I shrugged my shoulders and turned around. What the Hell? I might as well go for it. I walked right back to him, and stood directly in front of him. Rather than kissing him, I pulled my arm back and let it fly forward with more force than I thought I was capable of. I smiled slightly when I heard a satisfying smack on his face, meaning I had done at least a little damage. I didn't think there was anything more to say, so I simply walked away.
I continued my personal tour, and saw an old building attached to Hell Hall I hadn't noticed before. The door was left slightly open, so I let my curiosity get the best of me and slipped in. Unfortunately, there was a small puddle on the floor right by the door, and I slipped. My entrance turned out much less stealthy and smooth than I'd intended, and I nearly fell, but managed to just catch myself mid-fall.
"Reed Brennan, what, pray tell, are you doing falling into rooms where you do not belong?" Josh asked me with a smile and a slight laugh in his voice.
AN: Ta-da! It's done! I've decided that, when possible, I will quote the books, because nothing is better in these situations than Kate's brilliance. The next chapter is long, I've already finished the rough draft, but I still have to type it up, so it may take a while to go up. I was hoping to post this over the weekend, but I was at my figure skating competition all weekend. Hope you are enjoying my story, please tell me if you are, or even if you aren't. I want to hear opinions!
