Forever a Fan (Johnny Depp fanfic)

Chapter 1

~ 1998 ~

I woke up to the sound of birds chirping and tapping on my window. I sat up in my bed, rubbing my eyes in order to fully awaken. I looked over to the window above my queen sized bed and saw tiny little birds singing and chirping as the flowers blossomed outside indicating that it was spring. I stretched, smiling as I walked into the kitchen and grabbed a little plate and some bread before opening my window and placing the plate on the windowsill for the birds. I closed the window and walked into the bathroom, looking at myself in the mirror. My naturally curly blonde hair all over the place...

I changed into a green, skin-tight dress and threw on a black jumper before walking over to my bedside table and pulling out my box of treasured possessions...

I stared at it for a moment before opening it slowly, pulling out my chain with a key attached to it as a symbol of the key to my heart... I smiled softly before looking over at the grandfather clock standing in the corner of the room...

It read 7:00 am, perfect! Just enough time to run to college. I packed my bag before throwing it over my shoulder, grabbing my keys and walking out of my apartment, locking it.

In a few minutes, I was in the college yard. I walked into the enormous structure, pacing myself to class before opening the door and sitting down in the back of the room. There were only about 7 other students in the classroom already, all minding their own business and waiting for the professor's arrival. I sighed as I grabbed the novel I was reading out of my bag and opened it up.

The door to the classroom suddenly opened and in came the group of stuck-ups... Otherwise known as, the "cool kids"... Yes, you still have those in college...

They all sat down in the front row where they could slaughter the teacher to death with stupid, unrelated questions in class. I continued reading and noticed a guy walk into class... A guy I have liked for the past year I've been here... Ethan...

He sat down with the "cool kids" in the front row and my smile faded as he kissed his girlfriend Samantha, who I am surprised even made it into college seeing as she did have to repeat quite a few years of high school...

Suddenly, the professor, Mr. Davis, sat down at his desk out of nowhere and I jumped at his sudden appearance...

"Good morning class! How are we all doing?", he asked.

"Good!", everyone shouted.

My eyes were glued to the book I was reading and I couldn't look up... That is, until I heard him talking again...

"So, as you all know, this college will send a student from this class to write about the experience of actors and performers when they are on a set for a movie... Now, who is our first volunteer?!", he asked enthusiastically.

As soon as I heard that last sentence, I pulled out of the conversation and my eyes slowly ran after the words in my book again...
