3 Better Day, maybe

My mom came and got me that day.

I went straight to the hospital to be examined

"I'm at the Doctor Cullen." He spoke calmly with his his soothing voice.

I told him my issue. He seemed to expect it. I broke down. I told Doctor Cullen I've been dreaming of a guy named Bryant since elementary school. How I just saw someone from my dreams appear in front of me. So, I wanted to know whether or not I should check myself into the psych ward.

Dr. Cullen chuckled at me. Then he said "No, I do have an adopted son named Bryant. You probably met him today. You're not having a mental breakdown. If he might look familiar to your dream. Don't let it bother you. Your in a new town and unexpected things are happening around you. Just take a breath. If you think you things are overwhelming you, come and talk to me. Or Maybe you should talk to my son. He might be just as confused as to why you think he is an imagination. Either way take your time."

After that i was discharged from the hospital.

Dr. Cullen has been rooting for Brian to find his wife for a while. He wasn't about to let her think she had a mental breakdown. Technically Bryant is almost as old as Dr. Cullens but they have tactfull agreement from the time they met that Brian would be one of His adopted children. He was the first in the family.

Dr Cullens did prescribed Mireya some anxiety medicine to help her rest at night. Beyond that it was nothing wrong with her. She went home uncertain. But she wanted to trust a handsome doctor that had given her a listening ear and some anxiety medicine. Her problems weren't solved but every little bit helps.

Mireya mom went to the market that evening and they talked about the day. Mireya mention how she still fades into the background. While her mom wished she wouldn't go ninja disappearing at home.

I know doing sometimes she just forgets I'm there. It's never on purpose. I know she feels guilty about forgetting me. I wish she wouldn't feel guilty, it not her fault.

The next day I woke up and it wasn't raining, although, it looked like it would be rain later. I don't know what to expect out of a day but hopefully I wouldn't feel like I'm having a mental breakdown. And now that I know that the guy I met yesterday is not my imagination imma just shrug off my discomfort of telling him that he was a dream guy and hopefully he'll be okay with me shrugging It Off and let it be.

I woke up this morning and had Captain Crunch with milk. (Mom had went to the market yesterday after she got me from the doctors.) As we sat down to breakfast mom wanted to make sure I was okay with going to school today. I wasn't the type to run from my issues. Seeing him might be an issue but I'm going to get over it. I'm afraid of how I feel when I look at him and I realize there's a lot of feelings there.

I didn't have a feeling of dread instead I had a slight feeling of anticipation. Also, I was going to try to make friends today.

I had looked over at Bella, she looked exhausted. she must not be sleeping well at night. Maybe she needs some anxiety medicine too. I walked over to her and introduced myself and she seemed a bit surprised.

"You're new too. She doesn't remember hearing about me or seeing me."

"I started school the same day you did. I wanted to talk to you cuz you were new like me but you had already made friends, so, I was kind of nervous about approaching you."

"No, no it's it's okay, I'm glad you did. It's hard being new and not knowing anyone. You were approached by Bryant Cullen yesterday." That was the only reason she remembered me...Go figure.

[That was a complete bust.]

"I thought he was a figment of my imagination." I said out loud.

"Really."

She held in her giggles and rub my shoulder at an gesture to say it's okay. Then she seem to surprised herself by doing it. Usually she understood her own personal awkwardness. It's good when you know yourself, but when people can make you come out your bubble. Now, that's even more surprising. I guess she felt okay the communicating with me. She felt relaxed enough to talk with me. I felt relaxed talking with her too. Just two awkward new people

she seemed to be she seemed to be afraid of something. as if she didn't want to face something and when I asked her she said she was kind of feeling like the Cowardly Lion that stepped on the tail of the king of the jungle. That's the best way she could explain it. a slight idea of what it was for some reason I kind of remember her and the situation wasn't about to tell her that though.

Jessica saw her with me and she had an annoyed look about her. even though I hadn't met or talked with her yesterday she made me wonder what that look was for something's wrong with her. and then the day seemed to flow easy until we got to lunch where Mike steered us towards his table with the group and even started to see me

I saw that Bryant and Edward weren't here today.

I asked to sit with Bella until her table partner came to school. And we did our biology together she was okay with that because her feelings of dread wasn't there. when school was finally done she asked me if I needed a ride home and I said I do need a ride home I didn't want my mom to come get me

so she drove me to my house and she realized I was only about six doors down from her. Bella came into the house. She saw that we had stuff organized but it was still empty. She realize we really did just move in the same day she had got into town. She had confirmed that fact which was a comfort for her. She will have a friend that will offer her a home away from home. She didn't always like being in the house with her father. Bella saw his awkwardness and how much he still cared about her mom. Even through her mom had proceeded to take her away when she was months old. She even brought up that she was surprised how easy it was for her to talk to me because she usually doesn't talk too much to anyone including her family, go figure.

She went home because she wanted to get some money to go shopping. I walked her to her car and she drove 6 doors up. and then she was ran into the house to get what she wanted to the market.

My mom came home not too long after Bella had left. I told her about my day and she took a deep breath. Mom seemed to tension. Then she exhaled in relief. She was proud that I managed to make a friend today. I went to my room.

I took out one of my dusty drawing books I called it my dream drawings. And I looked threw pictures of events and things that happen between me and Bryant in my dreams. From elementary school events all the way up until we we're in high school like now but the picture that I was about to put in there wasn't of a dream but enough of an actual reality of him sitting with the colors and blending in perfectly the Cullens were all beautiful including the doctor I couldn't even imagine what his wife looks like to have gotten him But she's was awesome too. I had the pat myself on the back for having good taste cuz Brian certainly is yummy looking. I drew into my dream book until it was time for me to go to sleep.

I should have been working on my English with that withering Heights book but my mind couldn't focus on it at all so it didn't get done. I promised myself that I would work on it tomorrow and actually read it since I've never read it before.

The next day seem to go by with ease. Once Bella and I got into the cafeteria with the whole group, I could feel Bella tension going up. But she relaxed.

Edward wasn't there today and neither was Bryant. This first week seem to pass easily. well me and Bella were becoming cool friends. I was happy about my efforts paying off.

Days later, we ended up having a quiz on Withering Heights. Bella had helped me study. I just couldn't get into the book, although I tried to. Bella seem to like the book and it was fun for her to read. That made it easier for Bella to help me study it. The quiz was easier than I expected, thanks to Bella helping me to study. I wouldn't have passed that quiz without her help.

She shared with me her worries about Edward and their first meeting. How she thinks that it was her fault that he was absent. But I told her "His absences are on him. They don't have anything to do with you. Sometimes you just need to take a break to get yourself together. Maybe that's what he was doing" Bella gave me a look of doubt but she also didn't fully push the thought away.

It snowed after our first week there had passed. I watched people hurled snowballs. Bella was holding her notebook as a shield just in case some snowballs came flying over towards her One hit me and I saw the direction that it had came from. Even though it was an accident, I didnt like that it hit me. I'm not the type to take certain things sitting down. So I just kind of did my fade out thing. I notice it doesn't affect Bella as much because she's used to my presence. she followed me with her eyes as I proceeded to put together snowballs and throw them at the guy that had hit me by accident. He couldn't figure out where they were coming from. Bella chuckled as she watched me snowball assassinate his butt. Then I walk back over to her. She shook her head at me. she thought it was the most amazing thing along with wondering why no one notice me or my presence. She shrugged it off. I used to wonder about that too. Sometimes you just got to accept yourself. I'm me 24/7

While Bella proceeded to sneak peeks at Edward I rolled my eyes at her. I proceeded to turn my head away from looking at my dream boat that was seated next to Edward.

She proceeded to talk with Jessica about Edward. I however I ignore the conversation. Mike interrupted them to warn the of the impending snow war. I definitely did not want to be involved in this dang snow fight I don't mean to brag but they all can be snowball assassinated and never know who did it. So those that didn't want to be involved left.

Edward would take his seat next to Bella and I was sitting at a table by myself close to the back. All this seemed to come pretty easily as I have memories of doing stuff like this biology from my dreams, it felt like I was cheating. I wasn't technically.

While Bella was nervously navigating her conversation with Edward. At the end of class Bella came over to my table and Mike pop up at the door to come get us to go to gym I didn't have anything to say on this subject they would discuss and so I didn't talk I just listen.

Bella was nervously looking towards Edward who was standing by his Volvo I proceeded to get her to be calm because this is snowy weather and I want to live so she took her deep breaths and then turned on the car the truck roared to life. While i was thinking I wanna live. Bryant had walked over to Edward who was laughing and slapped him on the back of the head. Bella and I both looked up into the rearview mirror to see those two standing there and she pulled off neatly from the parking lot without incident.
