ANGELIC, AMBER WELLS [guided reading books txt] 📗

Summer

I ran down the long never-ending path of darkness. Peering behind me, I couldn’t help but sense that someone, no, something was chasing me as the unknown creature closed in on me. And I knew it was adamant to catch me. The flutter of wings caught my attention, as I stepped toward a gaping hole. Summer, summer, I heard it call in an almost shout and as it did I jumped in forgetting the consequences it might bring.
I awoke screaming, my mouth agape. “Good, your awake then Miss. Hays, glad you could join us although I would appreciate it if you could keep the level down in my classroom” My English teacher Mr. Evans exclaimed as I jolt to life. The whole class burst into laughter at my misfortune, whilst my face turned a rather crimson colour.” Umm-uh-well-I-uh” I stuttered struggling for words but I was luckily saved by my teacher. ”Never mind but next lesson I expect you to participate for the whole lesson, and that involves staying awake” he demanded as he set a text book on the table before me. “ Oh, and by the way your homework is on page 98 and I expect to see it tomorrow morning before Am registration seeing as you think it is acceptable to hand your homework in late” He added reminding me of the 2 page writing I was meant to hand in at the beginning of the lesson. Looking at the back of the classroom, bringing eye contact with Pac my boyfriend, the most mysterious and intelligent guy in class, just sniggered at me. I was on my own with this one.
Sitting around wasn’t going to get me anywhere with this homework but Pac had promised to call with some tips, although I hadn’t heard from him all day since that class stunt. Just as I had decided to walk away from the phone and start my homework, the phone started to ring. I launched toward the receiver and wrapped my hands around it, as if I was some sort of wild animal. ”Pac, finally it took you long enough li-“I answered but I was interrupted in the middle. “Stay away from Pac, He’s dangerous, stay away, you will stay away” a deep voice ordered from the other end of the phone. “Wait wha-““Stay away or else” the deep voice of a stranger warned. The phone went dead. That was the night that summer would always regret.

Pac

As summer talked I couldn’t help but wonder who this mystery caller was but I was adamant that I would find out. After all anything that bothered summer, bothered me, and today she seemed very distracted as she explained the events of the night before. “I’m telling you, there was this deep voiced guy who was like ‘stay away from Pac he’s dangerous’ and then hung up” she insisted and by the look she had on her face, she wasn’t going to give up until I said that I believed her. It wasn’t that I didn’t believe her , I 100 per cent believed her it was just that I was scared that if I did admit that I believed her, My past would come back and haunt me, and I wasn’t ready for that just yet. “I need to make an appearance at math and when I say I, I mean we” I exclaimed and dragged a surprised looking summer towards the next classroom we were assigned to. If only summer knew he thought to himself.


Summer

When I saw Pac at the doorstep, I knew something was different about him. He looked run down, as if he hadn’t had any sleep for days. The look on his face gave him away. All of the worst possibilities ran through my head, until I remembered Monday night’s phone call. ”come in” I requested.

Pac

I didn’t know what I was exactly going to say, I just knew I had to say it. And I had to think fast, as summer held the door open for me, with a confused look spread on her face. A voice in my head urged me to tell, confess all. My pulse raced. Taking a step inside, I looked around taking in the glamorous, well organised surroundings of the Hays household. As I reached the dining room, my head began to spin and my stomach dropped. ”So?” Summer began shaking, with the cold I guessed. “So what?” I replied in a harsh tone, forgetting the reason that I had come here. ”What?!You come to my house at 1:00 am and all you can say is so what? What has gotten into you recently, you are always so distant with me. Is there something you need to tell me Pac? Because I am all ears” summer raged. So summer had noticed, even if I had tried to hide it. The longer I stayed quiet, the angrier she grew until she reached boiling point. Summer blinked at me with a puzzled look on her face. “Leave” she whispered. ”But sum” Leave” she ordered getting louder. “Leave now!” she screamed this time, tears filling her eyes.” I am fed up of you lying to me, Can’t you tell me the truth it is killing me just don’t come back until you can tell me the truth” she cried. Pulling her into an embrace I stroked her head, knowing what I had to do next. “You should sit down” I suggested. I started to begin to feel uneasy as she ran her fingers down my back circling her hand in one particular area. “Pac, what is this on your back? They feel like slits” she stuttered backing away. Looking at my watch I announced “oh, is that the time better be off” and ran out the door and jumped into my shiny black car before summer had a chance to call after me.
as I paced back and forth in my room, thoughts ran through my head not knowing the solution to my problem. Sooner or later it would all spill but I wasn’t ready for it just yet.

Summer

“Stay away from Pac, He is not safe” The deep voice repeated over the phone, sending a shiver down summer’s spine. “Please, Just stop, stop calling me, leave me alone, please” I begged. “Stay away from Pac he is dangerous” the stranger chorused and continued to repeat itself until I hung up. I had to face Pac tomorrow; how I didn’t know but one thing I did know was that I wasn’t going to give in to him that easily. And he was in trouble when I next got my hands on him. How dare he run out on me like that, as well as thinking that he would get away with it. Well he was wrong, I wouldn’t leave this alone without an explanation, no matter what it took.

Pac

I was shaking as summer strode towards me, with a serious look on her face.

Summer

At first I thought Pac was in love with another girl after all I wasn’t the first girl he had ever liked before when we became a couple. Another possibility I had considered was that he had been involved in crime in the past but that had been another incorrect accusation. The day I had walked up to him and demanded to know what had got into him he had 45replied with “a fallen angel” not able to bring eye contact with me. “What do you mean by that?” I had stuttered worried about what would come next. Surely he was joking, did Angels really exist after all? I didn’t believe it at the time. “Summer you have got to listen okay, when I tell you this I need you to listen to me. I am not normal; In fact I am not even human. I am an angel, well a fallen one that is but those phone calls you keep receiving, they are from someone like me but just a bad kind. I am not the bad kind” He had assured me but I wasn’t yet convinced. “The slits in your back, why are they there?” I had questioned scared of what his reply might be. “Wings” He’d claimed unfazed.

Pac

She was staring at me in disbelief. I was sure that she didn’t believe me but I had to convince her. “Wings” I claimed without thinking, but I guess I would have to think about that later. There was a long moment of silence before summer said anything. “But why didn’t you tell me any of this before, you would have told me I am sure of it. You are making this up and just to make me look stupid. We are done Pac” She declared and I watched her run away until I couldn’t see her anymore.
That night I cried myself to sleep trying to wish all my fears away which appeared impossible. Summer would believe me and she would love me. I hadn’t given up my life in the sky for nothing. I just had to prove myself. I loved her too much to just let her walk away without a fight. I just needed a plan and I was set. First I needed to convince myself that she loved me.


Summer

The next few weeks went by quickly, with me receiving many apologies from Pac begging for another chance. He knew he wouldn’t get one so why was he trying so hard for something that didn’t exist. I was almost over him my mates had said, telling me that I was almost through with the ‘Break up’ stages but deep down I knew I was far off it. The only reason I was throwing insults in Pac’s way was because I was hurt and still desperately in love. I had been set up on endless dates by my mates, like Jake nice the most popular guy in our year, Daniel may the kindest guy that ever existed and the smartest guy in our year, Leo Williams but there was one thing wrong with all of them. They weren’t Pac. That was until new boy Cole Evans came on to the scene. He was just like Pac, Mysterious and Daring. Everything about him was alluring and I couldn’t help but stare at him. I missed Pac though and this might be what I needed to help me get over him even if it wasn’t right. He was the ultimate Break up help.

Pac

Jealousy overtook me as I watched Summer Drawl over Cole Evans the new boy. Although he wasn’t exactly new to me. Cole was a fallen angel, just like me with one exception. He wasn’t here for good reasons and he was out to get me, but he had stepped over the line. Summer didn’t know what she was getting herself into. I saw summer stand up and walk in Cole’s direction. Cole used to be good, we used to be a team however that all changed when he took a sudden turn and now he was messing with me. Rage took over the jealousy. I will get you back Cole Evans, yes I will I promised myself.

Summer

“summer, Your date is here” Mum called up the stairs. As I finished applying my final touch of lip-gloss, I smiled into the mirror. Perfect, I thought to myself. “Coming mum, be right there” I shouted back, straightening my clothes as I stood up. I ran down the stairs and glanced around, my eyes meeting Cole’s. “Sh-Should we go then Cole?” I asked flashing
