Why cant it be a Happily Ever After case??

chapter 1

Chapter 1

My name is Aileen. My life is normal. I am blonde with blue eyes. I am average height with an average build. Overall I am average. However despite my avergeness I am happy and wouldn't change a thing

You see, I wasn't always like this. I was once apart of another world where science and magic were one in the same. They didn't have electicity or any of the luxuries that we have in our current context. Often I wish these were dreams and not memories.

Although not once have I questioned whether or not these were memories and not dreams.

I knew if I spoke of my home they would surely would put me into a crazy institution, so I've always kept quiet.

Anyway back to my life, I still go to school and I am in year 11. I have the most amazing group of friends and best friend whom I love and can't live without. They are my support group and who I am most grateful to God for.

My family also is amazing even if I am adopted, they still treat me like I am their flesh and blood. They are supportive and caring excluding the parent/teenager disagreements that are quite common

*****************************

Tomorrow is the beginning of semester two (halfway throughout the year). The first day of school after a two week break is never a good thing. Two weeks is nowhere near long enough to recover from half a year from school.

Although now I can finally drive myself to school because I got my P's a couple of days after school finished. So during the holidays I was driving everywhere enjoying the freedom of not having mum or dad in the car constantly commenting on your driving even when they follow the older road rules instead of the newer/ current ones.

I head to the station to pick up Lorie because I promised I won't make her catch the early bus so she's meeting me there, meaning she doesn't have to leave home and arrive at school at an ungodly hour.

****************

Throughout the morning I have math's and double art. It was a bit of a bludge morning because we had a sub in math's and Art..... Well arts a bludge period any day.

I had hugged all my best friends and a lot of my really good friends in the morning although as recess came and I headed to the usual sitting spot for my group, as I was hugging everyone who I had yet to see in the morning I couldn't help but notice a new guy sitting with us.

He had spiked up black hair that wasn't long but it wasn't pixy short either. I could tell he was well toned under his school shirt as the way his shirt tightened when he put his hands behind his head. He was eating an apple and staring off into space.

His expression made him seem like he felt out of place but his body language made it look as though he owned the world.

It was obvious that there were girls staring at him and already crushing on him after one day. I don't get it, hes good looking and all but for all they knew he was a complete jerk. Although knowing some of the girls in my year, they wouldn't care how he treated them; they just wanted to have him.

I decided I would go up to him and introduce myself, hopefully making him feel a little more comfortable and a little less out of place.

In the corner of my eye I see Lorie staring at me, trying to get my attention. She looks over at him then back to me and shrugs, asking what's his deal. I mouth that I have no idea. I point to myself then at him signaling I'm gonna talk to him. She motions to come join me.

We walk a brief distance of five or six steps to stand in front of him. He looks up at us. He stares at our faces instead of looking us up and down like most guys would. I like him already.

From a close up I can see that he has violet eyes which I notice is very rare among humans. A spider sense in the back of my head tingles but I ignore it and push it behind the numerous impenetrable barriers hiding my past.

'Hey I'm Aileen and this is Lorie'.

'Salutations', she gives him a welcoming smile and we both stare at him expectantly. He just stares back looking as though he has no intention of answering our expectant stares.

Right before things got really awkward, Lories boyfriend, Spencer came and joined us.

'Hey man, your names Joseph isn't it?' He looks at us, 'yeh we have woodwork together, we met this morning'. Spencer went over to Lorie and put his arm around her and pecks her on the cheek.

I look over to Joseph and say, 'Hi nice to meet you Joseph'.

He nods once and grins at me. His smile took my breath away, imagine Heath Ledgers smile. He had perfect white teeth and the cutest dimples that can just be made out, 'nice to meet you too Miss Aileen'. His voice almost sang, it was beautiful and somehow seemed familiar to me.

After his brief greeting he went back to staring off into space. Now that I could see him closer it almost looked like he was trying to figure out an extremely difficult puzzle, that and he looked slightly miserable. It seemed as though he wasn't comfortable.... If that makes any sense.

I had the strongest urge to look through his mind and find out what his deal is, but before I reached out my consciousness I forced myself to keep the promise I had once made a long time ago.

I will never again use my abilities
