Chapter 3: Something's off

I got into my room and literally fell on my bed, today was exhausting and I had so much homework. I'm starting to think that Ada's old history lessons were better than going to school. Don't get me wrong I found school interesting none the less and exciting but at the end of the day it just seems like such a drag.

"Arya do you want cheese and ham or just cheese on your role?" I heard Simone call up the stairs. 'At least some things don't change,' I though, getting up off my bed and heading down stairs to the kitchen.

Simone always seems to know when I'm hungry and when I'm not. It's pretty awesome really, considering I am not even his biological sister.

"Just cheese please," I say as I make my way into the kitchen. I see Simone working with the sandwiches.

"Hey I'm heading out side to let off some steam you coming?" I ask Simone as I grab my sandwich and head to the back door. "Na its ok I've got to finish that English so you go ahead." Simone says waving me off.

"Ok, suit yourself," I say already half way out the back door. The scent of freshly cut grass hit's me as I walk out the house.

'Jonas must have cut the grass this morning,' I thought whiles heading deep into the forest and up my favourite tree. I came here to let off some steam, but right now all I want to do is just let my elvish senses roam. I climb to my favourite spot, I sit and close my eyes and let go.

It feels good to let go again, feel the wind on my face and the earth beneath me.

"SNAP"

My eyes snap open and I look around. It couldn't be Simone because he would have made his presents known by now. There's no one in sight, I push the thought behind me and get up. I slowly make my way down the tree and head back to the house.

I can feel someone watching me but I shake it off and head back inside.

"Oh Arya, your back wonderful suppers almost ready, so why don't you go wash up and get ready, and don't forget to call Simone down as well," Ann says when she sees me walk into the kitchen from the back door.

"Sure no problem Ann though I would like to know what is for dinner?" I ask as I wash my hands in the kitchen sink.

"Oh we're having cottage-pie for dinner, now hurry along supper will be served in 5 minutes." Ann says whiles putting the dishes on the table.

I ran up the stairs changed my top and pans and made my way to Simone's room. "Hey," I said as I walk into his room. He looked up from his video game and paused it. "Ann said suppers almost ready you coming?" I asked as I stood leaning in the door frame.

"Yip lets go," he said as we made our way downstairs to supper.

2 hours later I climbed into bed completely and utterly exhausted. And the memory of what happened in the woods crossed my mind again but I pushed it away. And before I knew it I was asleep.
