2 Chapter Two - Abnormal

As per usual school was simply that..school.

It went on as normal, me wanting to go home before we even got there, Jordyn complaining to me about complaining, Nate being an idiot. Us parting ways as the bell rings, work on stuff in class, the other bell rings and so on so forth until lunch.

Now, this is when the day started to get weird, and well... not normal. Right after the bell rang for class to end and lunch to start, I packed up like Speedy McFly and got out of there as fast as I could, as per usual. I practically bolted to my locker to put my books away and get my food. Bumping into quite a few people on the way.

As I opened my locker an all too familiar white envelope fluttered out. And no this was not the unusual thing I was talking about, I am getting to that in my own time.

I bent down and picked it up from the floor. Upon seeing the familiar

I gently opened the seal, making sure not to damage it

Pulling out the soft yet smooth paper, I unfold it and start to read the delicate words.

Dear Beautiful,

Have you ever wondered why people lie, or why they cheat, maybe even why they leave? I have. But, I keep coming to on simple conclusion either they are really stupid, or they have a reason, they may even be scared. I guess I will never really know because I can't be in the minds of those people or be them.

What I do understand though, is that it is in our human nature to make mistakes, and without them, we wouldn't be human. Without mistakes, there wouldn't be consequences and we wouldn't be able to learn from them, we wouldn't have anything to strive for either. Because without mistakes there is no progress and without progress, there is no reason for life, all you would be doing is staying in the same place, in the same time, not achieving a single thing. Not having something you are trying your hardest to achieve.

Sometimes I look to the stars and start to wonder. Sometimes I wonder of life, sometimes of love, but most of all I wonder of you.

The stars are beautiful chaos, and without that chaos, there would be no beauty. The stars are spontaneous, bright and captivating. But, they are also mysterious, radiant and truly wondrous.

Whenever I look to the stars, I think of you. Because you are all of that but so much more, and whenever I am bestowed the gift to be able to look into your eyes, even from afar, I see them dancing and shining brighter than ever before.

Love,

Anonymous

Smiling I carefully fold the letter and slide it back into the packaging, placing is in the bag in my locker so it does not get ruined or creased.

After closing the locker I look around to find the halls almost completely empty except for a few other students.

Waking down the hall I see a small group of people, no more than three, and as I get slightly closer I realize it is Daniel Taylor, Noah Walker and none other than Rosen Jacobs.

I quickly look away and continue on my way to the lunch room. Okay, let me fill you in a little about the school's princes, and of course their king.

Daniel Taylor is the newest member of the group and if my memory serves me right he transferred in last year. Gifted with dark brown hair and Chestnut brown eyes he is the most innocent looking out of the three. Trust me though he is not, he breaks just as many hearts as the others.

Then you have Noah Walker, watch out for this one he looks like the ultimate beach boy, pleased with sandy blond hair and blue almost grey eyes. Total player, but he also holds the title for the one I dislike least in the group. He has been best friends with Rosen sense about Freshman year. Which brings me to my final introduction.

Rosen Jacobs, ultimate bad boy with rich brown, almost black, hair and the most electric ocean blue eyes I have ever seen. This boy is the ultimate heartbreaker with a new flavor almost every week. He is tall too standing at roughly 6'1 - 6'2 much taller than most of the boys, and all of the girls, especially me with my 5'5 frame. Along with that, he is chiseled to perfection, making him the living definition of a Greek God. But, never, ever, never ever, never, tell him I said that capisce, even if it was in my head.

Finally, the place where the animals play, code for lunch room, I walk through the set of double doors and over to where I spot Nate and Jordyn seated.

"Hey, my favorite people."I grin, sitting down.

Nate grins back while Jordyn just rolls her eyes and scowls.

"Hey yourself," she replies, looking extremely annoyed.

I then turn to Nate and ask not so covertly, " What crawled up her a** and died."

He chuckles and answers," I have no idea but she has been snippy ever since last period."

I look back to Jordyn and just stare at her for a second.

She turns her head to me and growls out, "What?"

"Oh, nothing I was just waiting for you to tell me what the f*cking is up since you are being a crazy mean a** b*tch right now." I shrug.

"Did you just call me a f*cking b*tch?" She questions, and as you may be able to tell she is getting angrier by the second, but guess what.. I have a plan, and it has never failed me before.

"Yes Jordyn, I did because your acting like a mean a** f*cking b*tch right now." I very calmly inform her.

She just scoffs and looks away from me for a second. I look at Nate for a second, he makes a weird face questioning "why the f*ck" I did that. I shrug my shoulder and turn back to Jordyn. She looks much calmer now and a thoughtful expression makes its way to her face.

She then turns up to look at me, "I'm sorry I just... ugh." Pausing for a moment she signs then looks back down towards the table," My mom called me right before the fourth period. She said that she was me to go visit my father this weekend, that she was going to also." Her voice cracks slightly at the end, as a stray tear makes its way down her face.

"Hey," I quietly say while walking over to her side of the table. I continue on my way and then I sit down beside her and place my arm around her and look at her. "You are going to be fine. I know this because you are Jordyn Abigail Elliot. You are one of the strongest people I know, and hey, if you decide you can't do it I will be here for you. Both me and Nate will, but the best thing you can do right now is try... try and show him that you couldn't honestly care less.

She looks up and gives me a watery smile. "Thank you," she says wrapping both of her arms around me.

"Hey J," I manage to choke out.

"Yeah?" She asks.

"I can't breath," My voice comes out choppy due to the lack of oxygen.

She gives me one more tight squeeze before completely letting go. "Sorry."

"It's fine," I say sucking in as much oxygen as I possibly can.

After recovering from my near-death experience I make my way back over to my side and spot on the bench.

I start to eat my lunch and for the next few minutes Nate, Jordyn and I eat and talk. Mostly about random things but also what we are doing for Nate's birthday next week.

"I still really think we should have a party." Nate chimes.

"Of course you do, all you ever want to do is party!" Jordyn exclaims.

Nate raises his hands in surrender, " Yeah I know, I'm just saying."

"Hey, Nate should be able to decide what we do, it is his birthday after all," I say trying to reason.

Jordyn rolls her eyes, once again, "Yeah yeah, whatever. Maybe we could do two things, the other being just for us."

"Yeah, that works," Nate replies.

We go on to talk about what we could possibly do and at that moment guess who decides to make their grand entrance.

Jordyn, Nate and I all look over to the big metal navy blue doors of hell's cafeteria and there stands the three musketeers in all of their I'm-awesome-and-I-know-it glory.

My gaze travels from Daniel over to Noah then it finally slowly makes it's way to Rosen.

Which I am not so pleasantly surprised, that he shockingly already has his eyes on me. Our gazes lock and stay that way for what feels like an eternity before I finally find the will to look away.

Turning back towards Jordyn and Nate and continuing our conversation, which weirdly has now made it's gracious way to movies, not that I'm complaining. Though the whole time, I could feel someone's gaze on me burning into the back of my head.

⧫ ⧫ ⧫

After the bell rang, signaling us to start making our way to our next class, the day continued on normally. Besides the fact that I still felt the gaze in every single one of my classes, and it lasted until I was officially out of the school parking lot.

Once I finally made my way to the driveway I speedily dashed out of my car through the front door and upstairs into my bedroom. Of course, after locking my car and the door I would hate it if I were robbed, and I would undoubtedly be slaughtered if not by the robber than by my parents.

I open my curtains, because I like natural lighting better, and collapse on my bed. That doesn't last very long because I see my backpack in the corner of my room by my desk. I contemplate doing my homework then look up to see my speaker sitting on top of the black-paint-splattered table.

As you can imagine what I did next had absolutely nothing to do with homework. I twirled around my room for I don't even know how long. Every time I went to rest a great song came on that I just had to dance to. I did pause a couple of times though to look out my window because I kept getting this strange feeling, maybe of someone watching me, I don't know though because when I looked I didn't see anyone.

After the dance party, I finally did some of my homework while also maybe watching the Originals, in my defense, I have already watched it all a bazillion times and I only paid attention at the great parts, because it is all good.

Mom had gotten home around six I think which was a little bit after I finished my homework, I wasn't really paying attention though. To consumed in the various shows I ended up watching. I did go downstairs for a second because I got hungry and wanted some snacks. I was very ninja-like too because hello I didn't want her to know I was down there.

Okay, to be honest, that was only partly the reason because I actually love sneaking around and playing ninja. Don't judge me alright.

But, when I got back to my room, I don't know it's weird but I started to get that feeling again. That feeling that I am being watched, that someone is watching me. The feeling I have been getting constantly for I don't even know how long. I do know that it has gotten much more frequent in the past couple of weeks though.

Shrugging it off I place my armful of snacks onto my desk and then walk to my bathroom for a shower. And what an amazing shower it was I tell yah. Hell five minutes of it was spent just standing under the water.

Sadly I did have to get out, out into the frigid air that always awaits behind the shower door. Stepping into the cold I grab my towel and slightly dry myself. After wrapping it around me I walk to the bathroom sink and spend two minutes brushing my teeth.

I walked out of the bathroom and straight to my closet, shivering the whole way. I came out in my bra and underwear. And I swear I heard a sound but I looked around and saw nothing. Shrugging it off I changed the song that was currently playing and walked back inside my closet dancing a little on the way.

I don't even know why I put my bra on honesty, I don't wear one to bed. I took my bra off, because I am a dumbass and put it on in the first place, and switched it out for one of my dad's old shirts. Now with it being my dads and even though it was a T Shirt it still went down to my mid-thigh and the sleeves went all the way down to my elbows.

I walk back out into my room and turn my music off, in the process of that I grabbed my snacks and make my way to my bed.

Once I was all settled I grabbed my hand dandy laptop and watched Netflix until I fell asleep. Criminal Minds, don't know why I love it so much but I do, and I am willing to admit that a small part of that has to do with the drop-dead gorgeous Agent Derek Morgan.
