Chapter 2 – New Place, New People
“The school is Mystic Falls High“ I
smiled. I don’t really know what
happened but when I said the name of the school, Elena’s face changed. She seemed .. excited ?
“It’s the
school I go too!” She smiled with excitement. “I am sure you’ll do perfectly
fine there.”
“Thanks.” I
smiled back. Something in Elena’s excitement transmitted a really positive energy
to me, making me feel reborn?
“ Let’s go
then!” Grabbed my hand as she turned me around.
I must admit that I wasn’t very safe with the friends
I used to have. Something about them didn’t give me that confidence. Elena
seemed different. Being with her, made me smile. I don’t know why, I have the
feeling we will be very good friends.
As we arrived
her house..
“Here we are!
Come with me let me show you our
room.” She ran upstairs as she expected me to follow, enfasizing the word our.
I ran upstairs with her and as she opened the door, I
saw this room. The wallpaper was a really soft pink that couldn’t almost be
spotted, a single bed, a desk with a computer and a shelf full of books. My
face changed once again. Excitement ran through my veins. I spotted something
in the girls desk that caught my attention straight away.
“You also have
diary? Seems we have a lot in common.” I smiled looking at that object that was
in my hands.
“yeah I do..
it’s kind of a place to release everything. I am sure you know how it feels.”
She told me as if she was talking to a person she knew ages ago. I nodded in agreement.
I picked up mine from my back pack. The old cover was
full with abstract images. I was the only one to see the actual meaning of
them, since I was the one drawing it. Without saying a single word, I held the
diary close to me. It was like the words inside could touch me even without me
reading it.
“ I am going to
leave you alone for a few moments.” She looked at me and back to the old diary,
as she left the room closing the door behind her.
I saw this little space right under the window where I could actually sit. I made my way and
I sat down holding the diary and running through the pages. Random words could
be seen as I changed pages. All of them matched what I was feeling now.
“…sadly…random…strange…mysterious…new…”
Were the most common words ever,
but they were messing with me so much that I was forced to close the diary and
search the page I should be writing in. As I reached there, words began to
flow.
“Dear Diary,
Everything is
so different in here. Although I miss my family and friends, I can’t say I am
not enjoying not being rejected and annoyed every time I ‘breathe’.
I am already
settled inside this girls house. Her name’s Elena. She seems to be quite
friendly and kind. We will apparently attend the same school and as we are in the
same year, possibly the same classes. Although she is kind and friendly, there
are somethings about her that make me curious. Why would she help a complete
stranger ? For kindness ? I don’t think so but yet, I don’t know her…”
I closed the diary annoyed over the fact I couldn’t
manage to write anything properly, as a
tear began to roll down my face reminding me of my old friends. Elena seemed to
sense it because she came back at that exact time!
Opening the door and looking straight at me…
“hey.. don’t
cry.” She said with a very cute tone.”You’ll be fine.” She sat by my side
holding my hands like no one ever did. “I am here ..” She hesitated.
I just nodded and wiped the tears away. As I let my
hands slip through hers, I left the diary alone next to her without realising.
Elena looked over at the diary and although she was
curious to know more about me, she didn’t touch it.
Making my way to the room again, I smiled at her.
“hey don’t
forget you start school tomorrow.. do you need anything ? clothes or else ? I
can lend you some of mine. Feel free to check the wardrobe on the bedroom next
door.”
“thanks and I
will.” I made my way to the room. Another bedroom ? Why did I need to share it
with her then ? What’s going on ?
As I entered the room, I saw this boy staring straight
at me. I shocked for a while as I started to gasp and finally closed the door
as I stood on the outside. The boy was
quite hot. Tall, slim, brown hair, brown eyes, normal lips and plus, he was
shirtless. Hot body also
fitted his description.
I felt the door slide open behind me again and he
began to talk to me.
“hey. I—I am
sorry..” he said putting his shirt on. “I didn’t know my sister had a friend
over..but I don’t know you, do I?” he questioned. It was impossible to say that
they weren’t related. Questions seemed to be their main theme! “I’m Jeremy.” He gave a very cute smile.
“No—No problem at all!” I tried to
act normal. “No you don’t .. I am new here in Mystic Falls. I’m Cristiana or Kris.” I smiled back.
CONTINUES!
