I let out a pained groan as my head throbs from a sudden loud and frightening squeal followed by a heavy thud.I turn over and look to see my clumsy younger sister on the ground wincing.
"What the heck Del?! I asked, irritation and tiredness pumping through my veins.
Delilah frowns shamefully and looks at the ground, a heap of limbs and clothes.
She finally let out a defeated sigh as she fiddled with the sleeves of her oversized long sleeve. "I'm sorry Frey, I slipped while getting out of bed."
"Again?" I ask, the annoyance now gone and replaced by grogginess.
She stares at me apologetically and just slightly nods her head in response.
I sighed before lifting myself off the bed and walking over to her, checking for any brusies. Once I see she had none I heaved her off the floor with ease.She thanked me and quickly rushing out of our room bathroom.
I now stand looking around me and Delilah's large room, the one we've had ever since we were small children.
I glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that since it was 5 I had about two hours to kill knew I before I had to get ready for school.
I definitely wasn't gonna fall back asleep so instead I snagged a sketch book and some pencils, plopping down at my desk and laying everything in a neat array.I open to a fresh page and just let my hands do their thing while my mind wanders aimlessly.
I hear my 6:00 am alarm go off and I let out a heavy sigh as I continue drawing and a little while later I look down at the page and admire what I drew.
I had managed to draw a beautiful bouquet that held assortment of purple and pink lilies, my favorite flower. Content with what I drew and I shut my book in satisfaction before stuffing it in my backpack.
I grab my phone and check the time it was already 6:15 so I decided to not work out and do something else.I sit for a few moments pondering about what to do when I remember I have a history test that I hadn't studied for.
I walk over to my book bag that's slumped against the wall and lift it with a pained groan.I set it down by my desk finally with a harsh thud and pull out my humongous history book.
I hated lugging the gigantic thing anywhere but it was a rare occasion so I couldn't complain to much I thought as I opened the book and flip to the chapter I needed.
An hour or so had passed when my school alarm started to ring and I quickly packed my school books away and head to the shower.
I glance in the mirror and catch the sigh of a bewildered red head with greenish blue eyes as I run my fingers through my wild hair. I sighed and peel my clothes off before gleefully hopping in the shower and relishing in the feel the hot water cascading down my back,
I hurriedly wash up before stepping out the shower, putting on a robe as I headed back to me and Delilah's room.
I sat down at our shared vanity before slapping foundation down to cover my violently ill raccoon eyes that had spawned from not getting enough sleep.I put on some mascara and light blush before deciding to call it a day with makeup.
I rummage through my drawers for a few minutes until I had managed to come up with a half decent outfit.
My outfit consisted of a plain black long sleeve that I decided to wear alongside a pair of beige cargo pants.I added some earrings and a cute necklace Del had gotten me a few months ago before slinging my backup over my shoulder.
I double checked I had everything I needed before hurrying downstairs to the kitchen where Delilah was already chowing down on a chocolate granola bar.She stands up and dusts herself off before throwing the wrapper in the trash.
Reaching in the fridge I grab my lunch and an orange before making my way to my car, Delilah follows suit, sitting in the passenger side.I wait for her to put on her seat belt before peeling out of the driveway and down the street.
<------->
It was now a few hours into the school day and it was finally lunchtime where students were allowed to leave the premises of the school to get food. Annoyingly we had to be back 10 minutes before the end of lunch or else we'd get detention.
So when lunch began I decided on walking instead of driving to chic fil a because it's only a 20 minutes walk from the school.
I start walking and halfway there I hear approaching footsteps and groan, not wanting to interact withanyone.
I turn around to see a man wearing a black mask alongside a plain white s shirt and baggy jeans heading towards me,choclate colored curls peeking out the edges of his dark red beanie.
He walked toward me with his head down until coming to a stop in front of me, as he slowly lifts his eyes I'm frozen within them.
Our eyes connected and I felt something on my neck tingle but I forced myself not to touch it so the odd sensation would hopefully go away.
His eyes were an electrifying blue that made me shiver just looking into them and he was certainly one of the most attractive men I had ever seen.He stands there as if hes thinking about something for a moment and I clear my throat gesturing for him to begin.
"Hello Miss are you Freya Larson?" He asked, his voice sent a shiver through me as I noticed how deep it was.
"Why?" I asked and the man looked around awkwardly as though uncomfortable.
Hm.
"I was assigned by my boss to inform you that our agency would like to recruit you."
I stare at him blankly and he takes this as a sign to continue.
"We've been watching you for the last week or so to see if you would be qualified for the job." He mutters, shifting his weight likely knowing how creepy that would seem.
I shiver as I look around to see if the supposed people he talked about were watching me now and I almost flinched when a cat ran out of an alley, knocking over a metal trashcan.
Way to add to my paranoia.
When I really thought about it, although I didn't see anyone watching me the atmosphere around me had become what felt like a lot more tense and ever so often I swear I'd see random men just waking, glancing at me with something in their eyes.
Every time I just brushed it off as intrigue or attraction so I wouldn't think about it again and could focus on providing for me and Delilah.
How could I not see that someone had been watching me?
I had to keep Delilah safe but couldn't even tell when dudes in black we're following me? I mean the man before me had managed to sneak sneak up to me and was only a feet meters from me when I noticed him
Whos know or say they aren't following her too.
I sighed, running a stressful hand through my wild locks as I shoved a hand into my pocket and hoped the man would finish up.
He seemed to notice my shift in mood and rummaged in his pocket before pulling out a business card.
"If you would like to find out more about the job please come to this address tomorrow afternoon." He says, putting his hand out to hand me the business card.
I take it and when I look down to read the few details it gives the guy is already gone and I squint, looking for him.
"Dude you couldn't even give me your name." I exclaim loudly, glancing down at the business card and then back up as though he'd just magically appear.
I hear a soft chuckle from the nearby alleyway and the sound of retreating footsteps and I squint my eyes at the strange encounter.
I check my watch and groan realizing I'm already too late to go and get my lunch.Today was gonna be a long day but I can't even imagine tomorrow.
