My first day at school didn't go as expected but I hoped for a new beginning as time goes on....
For the first two weeks, school was going smoothly and I thought everything was alright. Even those two seniors at cheerleading were out of my hair or should I say they ignored me.
*****Two and half weeks past****
One sunny thursday after recess as usual I felt really weird and decided to go to the bathroom..
As soon as I got in I washed my face and leaned on the wall, trying to catch my breath because I was breathing really fast and I had no idea why. I was still there when those two seniors walked in they looked in my direction but I wasn't sure of that because they ignored me, but I became curious when they stood right beside me and started talking about me...it felt funny....I didn't want to believe that my dream was becoming a reality.....but I just brushed it off....it can't be true..."they were just ignoring me right??" I asked myself but I wasn't sure of the answer. The two seniors left and I walked out of the bathroom and went straight to class...although I was still thinking of what had happened but I wasn't really bothered...it was just a dream.....
I went home as usual and my aunt was out doing some random shopping...I didn't sleee in the afternoon again for the fear of having nightmares or should I say afternoon mares, of course I slept at night but the dreams were less disturbing then...I wonder why....or maybe because when I sleep at night I think of nothing else but my favorite movies. That afternoon I tried to do a lot of things and by the time I was done I was exhausted....so I gave sleep a chance.....well I had my afternoon mare but it was something different entirely.....
I have always seen my friends talking to me but I wouldn't know why or what they were saying but that afternoon I heard it clearly.
"Hay.....you have to find the killer....the killer...and save your....."that was all and I jumped up from my sleep....I didn't even know what they meant by the killer.....they died in that accident right? it wasn't planned right? I asked myself over and over again.
But no one was there to give me any answers, I couldn't even tell my aunt because I didn't want her to start worrying about me.
So I just kept it to myself and prayed that things will fall into place.
I am not really a religious person but my parents always made me pray because they were really religious.....now that I think about it I wonder why God didn't save them from the car crash and surprisingly I only started praying after my parents death.
The dream only came once in a while but the words were not as clear as that afternoon, so I had some sleep full nights and I try to appear as happy as I can, so that my aunt won't have to worry about me.
I went to school as usual but this time we were practicing to cheer for the upcoming football match between our school and another school. I went to the practice spot as usual and I was told something that left me speechless.
"Hayden, you will be leading the cheerleaders in next week game.....you really have a talent, so this is your chance to prove your leadership..." The leading senior told me and for a minute, I couldn't talk, I just stared at her, they used to hate me, so why the sudden change. I just shrugged it off, but I had a bad feeling about whatever was going to happen.
Days went into weeks and the day for the match finally came.
We were all excited.
I was even more excited because I got to be the leader, the match was about to start and we had to go out, I took a deep breath and called the rest of the cheerleaders, I had no idea those seniors were with us...
We started off pretty well with our cartwheels and all sorts but half way someone suddenly pushed me and I fell flat faced on the ground and I was surprised because the others were still standing firm....so I knew it was no mistake, I became a laughing stock to the whole school but I managed to run to the locker room and I cried my eyes out...I had sustain some injury when I fell....so I Cleaned it and kept a bandage on it.
I was on my way out when I met these really good looking guy.....he was coming from the boys locker room which was opposite ours, he looked familiar but I couldn't point out where I have seen him....
"Hey, there cutie"he said and I tried to look around for someone else but I was the only one standing there.
"I was talking to you, why are you looking back?....well I am Noah and you?"he said and smiled.
That name rang a bell, then I remembered, he was the prom king back in high school.....what was he doing in Australia. He started giving me funny faces and I realized that I haven't told him my name.
"Ooh, sorry, I zoned off a bit, my name is hayden...jones"I said and I watched his reaction to see if he remembered me but he was so cool with it like he had never seen me before. I wonder why...
"So, I was thinking if you want to talk about what happened on the field, I am all hears.....and before you think I was stalking you, you just looked like you needed help". He said and stared at me as if he was Reading my mind.
"Thank for the offer but I am doing just fine" I said and walked off, I took my bag and headed home. But one thing was on my mind"why did he pretend not to know me, I might not be good with boys but FCOL I was his prom queen"...wait did I say his.....oh no!
P.s: FCOL: for crying out loud.
