Torn In Between
Chapter One:
"Mom, this is gonna suck!", I said as we drove up the long gravel driveway to Linch Highschool. This school was going to be the death of me, with it seperating me from the world and everything I had once and always wanted to do. I had done this to myself though, considering that only kids that needed help got put in here. My mom was going to miss me. I hope my Dad did too..
"It's a boarding school", I mumbled to my mother and myself. I watched sadly as the tiny droplets of rain water trickled down the tinted car window. "Kassidy, I'll keep in touch. And besides, you'll get to see me during Holidays and on the days they let me come visit. As soon as I get the schedule and that day comes, I'll be right up here", she said squeezing my hand, clearly holding back the painful tears she wasn't letting out, and smiled.
The school came into view. It was a huge brick building engulfed in the dark forestry behind it. The school didn't look all that bad, and for some reason it looked like a happy place to be. To the right of the monstrous structure was a beach with crystal clear water so pure you could see each little fish swimming along. To the stood tall brick buildings with numbers, clearly indicating that they were the dorms in which one, I'd be staying.
We parked in front of the lobby and swung open the glass doors. A way too perky blond lady smiled at me. "Well, Goodmorning sweetheart!!!!! Mrs. Smith, here's your paperwork we didn't send in the mail. Sorry for that by the way", she said, still smiling. She smiled at me like she was constipated. I half smiled back, and sat down in the brown recliners that lined the lobby wall. The large lobby looked more like a hospital than it did a school lobby.
The door to the lobby swung open and I swear I started drooling, when I saw the most beautiful human being walk through the doors. "Ahh. Hello Kassidy. I'm Blake, and today, I will be showing you around the school", he said, his deep voice, and blue eyes hypnotized me.
His eyes and voice weren't the only thing pefect about him. His smile revealed pearly white teeth, and his lips were the kind everyone wanted, but only he was lucky enough to have. He flipped his thick dark brown hair, and I smiled.
I was going to ask him how old he was but the school bell chimed and he said, "Ah Lunch. You hungry?", he asked. I nodded and followed him out the door after saying my goodbyes to my Mother. "Don't be scared to talk to me. You'll have to get used to me sometime since I'll basically be your tour guide today", he said, then he laughed.
I coughed. "Is the food good?", I asked. "It's a rich boarding school. It's amazing! Lobster and butter, steak, japanese, sushi, burgers.." He said, smiling. He reached for my hand, and I pulled mine away quickly. "Sorry, I couldn't resist.. You are very pretty, you know that right?", he asked. I smiled.
We strowed down the long dark hallways, past many students, and finally we made it to the mess hall. "Better not be vegetarian.." he said. "Oh believe me, I'm not"
A mouth watering aroma flushed through my nostrils as he swung the doors to the mess hall open. It was steak. I grabbed a blue tray and the lunch ladies placed the delicious looking food onto my plate.
The steak stared at me, and it drove me to the point I wanted to cry. No. Kassidy. Not now.. I got up and ran out the door. I sat outside in the beach's sand. I couldn't eat steak anymore since David had died. "You need to move on.." I said to myself.
"From what?", Blake asked, sitting beside me. "David. He's all I can think about. I loved him. Why did he have to leave me?!" I cried, burrying my head in between my knees. Blake played with my hair and then put his arm around me. "He shouldn't have dumped you.. He was a very lucky guy to have you"
"He didn't dump me. He died.."
