The A girl - Hope (interesting novels in english .TXT) 📗

I said walking into the sunshine. “Wow daytime already.”
“Yeah, well we all visited you. It obviously has to be for us to be up.” Chris said ruffling my hair.
“Shut up.” I muttered, and I spotted Elle who glanced my way glaring at me.
“Hey you.” Rose called marching towards her. She tromped ahead of me, and I rushed to ketch up with her.
“What do you want?” Elle asked putting a hand on her hip.
“How dare you? You want to call Allie a slut? Honestly Elle your act is getting old. You’re the only slut around here. You flirt with every guy, and get with your sister’s best friend behind her back; yet somehow she’s the slut? I don’t think so. You better watch your mouth or the slap that’s going to leave a mark will be the least of your worries.” Rose threatened and I stood there gaping at her stupidly.
“First off it’s not your place. Secondly you don’t know the whole story. And lastly, if you ever threaten me again I will make your life a living hell. So get out of my face and move along.” She said like she was talking to an annoying little kid.
“Oh you’re going to pay for that.” Rose said, but I grabbed her arm.
“Rose no.” I said, and she glared at Elle.
“Go along now.” Elle said, and I pulled Rose away from her.
“Oh I want to hit her.” She muttered.
“I know.” I said as we walked in silence.
“Well, that was terrible.” Chris said after a minute, and I smiled.
“Yeah, I know. Thanks though. I wish I could say that to her, and get away with it. I get the feeling next time I won’t get a free one.” I said and Rose smiled elbowing me.
“Hey if she tries to fight you she’ll be killing herself. She wouldn’t have a chance against you.” Rose said and I smiled sadly.
“Yeah that’s what I’m afraid of.” I said and we walked in silence each of us in our own thoughts. I kept revolving around the moment that I slapped Elle. I hadn’t done it because she called me a slut. It was because of everything she’d done up to that point. No it wasn’t just that. I took all the anger I had at my dad, Adrian, everyone and focused it into that one hit. I had the feeling that it was one of those moments that would change everything. I felt bad about it, but I didn’t regret it. She deserved it. It still shouldn’t have happened.
“Allie.” A voice behind me sighed. I turned, and smiled as Aaron stood there smiling at me. Strong, dependable, brave, and breath taking just like always. I knew I was staring and swooning, but I couldn’t help it. Aaron was as near to perfect as you could get. Adrian had a lot more issues. He was protective, irrational, shady, but he was perfect for me. I could feel it when I looked at him. He filled the longing I never knew I had.
I shifted my attention back on Aaron noticing that he wasn’t alone. The voice I heard had been Krista. I hadn’t seen her in months.
“Krista.” I said hugging her, and turning to wink at Aaron.
“How are you girl? I heard about the fight between Mr. hot shot himself, and Mr. deadly handsome man.” She said and we both busted into a giggling fit. Krista had that effect on me. She was charming and outrageously funny.
“You chopped your hair off.” I noticed changing the subject as I nodded at her short, light brown hair.
“Yeah,” She said running her fingers through her hair and tugging at the end self-consciously. “but we’re talking about you.”
“I’m fine Krista.” I sighed and she narrowed her eyes.
“Do you have contacts in?” She asked, and everyone came around to squint at my eyes.
“Uh, yeah. Red right? I thought it looked cool.” I covered and Krista rolled her eyes.
“Now you look like the ferocious demon you are.” Rose said sarcastically and I smiled.
“Rawr.” I said baring my teeth, and lifting a hand to look like a claw. We all cracked up laughing, and I looked at the lake. It was day time, and even if it was slightly cold nothing would happen.
“Who’s up for a swim?” I suggested and they all looked at me. Some were excited others looked at me like I was crazy.
“Not in these clothes.” Rose said crossing her arms, and I rolled my eyes.
“We could change first. C’mon Krista you know you want to. It’s our last break day before we go back to our crazy schedule.” I said and she smiled.
“Alright, but only because you never come visit. This might be the last time I get to see you for a while.” She said and I forced myself to smile because only I knew that this probably was the last time she would ever see me.
“That’s the spirit. So meet back here in ten. Invite friends if you want. The more the merrier.” I said with a smile.
“So can a teacher get in on this?” Adrian’s voice called out, and I turned beaming at him.
“Hell yes as long as you act cool.” I said and he grinned.
“Wait vampires can be out in the sunlight?” Krista asked and I turned to her.
“Born vampires can’t, and even ones that are made can’t for long. An hour with sunscreen won’t kill a made vampire.” I explained, and I turned to Adrian whose lips were pursed.
“Now who’s the teacher?” He teased and I bit my tongue to keep from laughing.
“Alright let’s go.” I said walking towards my dorm, and Adrian caught up with me.
“I’ll walk you?” Aaron suggested and I shook my head.
“Nah your dorms the other direction besides I’ve got Adrian.” I said, and Aaron eyed us together.
“Okay.” He said finally and I turned away walking to my dorm again.
“Three days of being out in public together.” Adrian said with a smile, and I smiled a little in return.
‘Yeah, but only one was as a couple. Now we’re just friends.” I said and he shrugged.
“Good enough for me.” He said and I pursed my lips.
“Not for me.” I said with a mischievous grin, and he smiled back as we approached our building. We got to my room first since we went in the back entrance, and I yanked him into my room kissing him as I pushed him up against the wall.
“What was that for?” He asked once I pulled away.
“Not kissing you wasn’t working for me. I’m tired of having to hide this from everyone.” I said with a sigh, and his hand ran up my side past my arms to rest on my face.
“I know this must get old, but it really isn’t that much longer now. We’re so close to freedom I can taste it.” He said and I smiled.
“Does it taste like my pina colada Chap Stick?” I asked and he nodded.
“And it smells like sweet pea body lotion mixed with coconut vanilla perfume.” He said and I grinned.
“It looks like us sitting on a porch holding hands.” I said and he looked at a piece of my hair putting it behind my ear.
“It looks like you smiling as you meet your dad, your lips crashing down on mine, your eyes deep as ever staring into mine.” He said softly, and I kissed him again.
“I can’t wait for everything to work out.” I said, but I felt a twinge of guilt. If everything worked out for us than I would be crushing Aaron. I’d be leaving my best friends behind to fend for themselves.
“Well, I have to get dressed. You do too.” I said walking over to my dresser not looking up to meet his eyes. I knew he was probably torn about what had just happened, but I heard the door open and softly close. I grabbed my bikini from the beach, and I threw the cover up on over it. I grabbed a towel before walking out of the dorm, and took off outside to the lake. I stopped once I reached the others panting and out of breath. Aaron, Rose, and Chris were there, but no one else had made it back yet. I walked to the water’s edge taking a deep breath before pulling the cover up over my head, and throwing it aside with my towel. I turned around to see Adrian staring at me as he walked up as well as Chris and Aaron.
“Dang Ahnallie. Why didn’t you tell me you were this hot?” Rose teased and I rolled my eyes. She was wearing a pink and gold bikini. The ties were gold, and the edging was gold as well as the word Angel written on one side of the bikini top.
“What about you? You could melt the whole beach.” I teased back, and she rolled her eyes.
“Well, are you coming?” She called back to the boys as Krista appeared with her boyfriend of two years, Jagger. They all walked towards the water while Rose and I hopped in. The water was colder than the air, but it felt nice. I waded out until the water started lapping up at my belly button. I stopped and turned around to see the others just getting in. Rose was underwater, and on cue she came up for air next to me.
“They are pathetic.” I murmured and she giggled.
“C’mon guys every second you waste is a second we’re getting older.” She called out to them, and Chris started walking towards us quicker. I looked beside me, and Adrian rose up out of the water.
“Hey.” He said with a hesitant smile, and I smiled back.
“Hi.” I mumbled turning back in front of me only to see Aaron hovering in front of me with his wings expanded. He had bandages on his chest, and I looked at him worriedly.
“Wings heal faster than bones Allie. How about that ride?” He asked leaning down to extend his hand toward me. My heart was pumping, and my hand shook as I held it out to him. He gripped my hand tightly grabbing my other hand with his other hand. He lifted me out of the water, and let go with one hand to grab my middle and boost me up.
“Be careful Aaron. She can’t fly.” Adrian warned.
“Yeah break my sis, and I’ll break your face.” Chris said to which Aaron responded by flipping him off behind my back.
“I know what you did.” I teased, and he rested my feet on top of his.
“Wrap your arms around me.” He instructed, and I did feeling shaky but excited as my hands locked around his neck. He wrapped his hands around my waist, and slowly lifted us higher into the sky.
“Oh my god.” I squealed.
“Are you scared?” He asked mistaking my excitement for fear.
“No, this is so cool. I would never get tired of this.” I said breathing in the air as I dared a look down. My friends already looked like ants.
“Oh you do after a while. The view starts getting old.” He said shrugging and I looked up at him.
“I like the view from here.” I teased and he kissed me.
“Tell me when, and we’ll go back.” He whispered his face a few inches from mine, and I nodded kissing him again.
“You don’t seem too scared.” He noticed.
“I trust you.” I answered easily before hesitantly touching his wing, and pulling back when the feathers reacted to my touch.
“Then can you tell me why you invited Adrian?” He asked and I shrugged.
“He wanted to
