_ Get up! says that sweet and familiar but harsh voice however I am still not ready to face the light of a new day.
_ ....
_ I. Said. Get. Up. Then she takes off the blanket violently.
_ Ouch! I yell as I fall on the floor. Can't you wake me up more gently?!
_ You'll never wake up that way. Hurry! Or else you'll be late to your first day at school. Urges mom while opening the curtains.
_ Ugh, too bright.
_ Breakfast is ready. Prepare yourself and then come down. It's your first day at school and you get up so late. continues mom Ignoring my complaints as she leaves the room.
_ That's EXACTLY why I didn't have enough sleep.
_ You sure are excited. Well you better hurry then, or else you won't make it on time. Then she smiles gently before closing the door.
Yeah, she's right. I gotta hurry.
*Well, HI! I'm Elisabeth, "Eli" is enough actually. This year I'm turning 15 and finally starting my high school life. I hope this year will bring new colors to my life. I'm so excited to return to school. I had enough of my lazy holidays (well I'm gonna regret what I just said later, especially when exams will be coming °-°). I really miss my friends. Not like we didn't see each other from time to time but well it's been a moment already since we last met.
OK. I'm ready. Wonder what's for breakfast today? I should go down quickly. I'm starving.
_ Waaaaaa!? Ouch! (>o<)
And of course as clumsy as I am, I trip over nothing and head first into the floor. These damned stairs! Really!
_ Still alive, Big sis? yells sarcastically my devilish little brother from the kitchen.
_ YOU....
_ Stop quarreling! Emiel don't talk to your sister like that and Eli come sit with us.
_ Coming! I reply to my mother as I get up from the floor.
Oh! Such tasty looking food as expected from mom!
As I bite into my chocolate toast a big and gentle hand caresses me and a grave caring voice greets me.
_ Good morning, dear.
# _ Oh, No!! I forgot the USB on the desk! What should I do now? l don't think anyone's home at this hour.
_ Are you serious? If we don't submit the data today we'll be in real trouble#
_ Eli? asks dad with a worried face.
_ Oh, good morning dad! I just spaced out for a moment.
_ Of course, your head's always in the clouds. That's why you always fall without any obvious reason. Interrupts my annoying little brother.
_ You better watch what you say young man, that's impolite towards your sister. warns him dad while glaring.
hehehe! He deserves it .
_ Oh, yeah dad you should be careful as to not forget anything important such as a USB in which there's important data or anything like that.
_ Ah! Now that you say it I think the USB is still on the desk. Thanks for reminding me I'll go get it.
_ You're welcome. I answer with a big smile even thought I know it won't change anything even if I help you.
Well I should finish my breakfast quickly and go to school. I don't wanna be late the first day, right?
_ I'm going!
_ Come back safely! replies mom.
*So you must be curious right, to know how I was able to see dad's future. Actually I am even more curious than you. It really is a mystery how I got these "incredibles" powers. Maybe there's even more but all I know for now is that...
Oh, great I am just on time for the opening ceremony. I hope it's not going to be a long one, because they're really boring those kinds of things.
*...Firstly, I see the future only by direct contact like earlier when dad pated me.
Secondly, I only see fragments from the future I mean it's only little parts of a big picture so it's not always clear predictions. And finally....
It's finally over! The director sure talks a lot. Ok now I wonder in which class I am? I hope I'm in the same one as Laura, Celess and Jack. I came in too late to have the time to search for them. Well it's not a problem we'll meet eventually.
Ah! there they are!
_ Hey guys!
_ Oh! Hi Eli. greets me back Celess with a bright smile.
_ You look great in the new uniform. Says Jack as sheerfuly and happily as ever.
_Thx. You too by the way.I reply. Wonder how many hearts you'll break with that handsome face of yours this year. we all laugh as I added.
Then Laura takes my hand and says:
_ We're in the same class Eli but Celess and Jack are in a different one. So please take good care of me this time too.
#_ Oh, my god! ☆*:. o(≧▽≦)o .:*☆ Eli! Do you see that guy?! So handsome!
_ Hhhh. Yeah! I see him, I see. But don't you already have a boyfriend Laura?
_ Those are two different things!! Seriously! she replies with a half serious half annoyed expression.
_ Hhhh! Okay! Fine, I am sorry! #
_ Heeeeey!! From Erath to Elisabeth! shouts Laura loudly.
_ Mmm? oh, yeah! Take care of me too.
_ You sure never change. Always daydreaming in bright daylight! smirks Jack softly my way.
_ Yeah! that's exactly like you Eli. Adds Celess with a delicate sweet smile.
_ Well I guess that's true. As I agree with a troubled reddish face the bell rings
Ding! Dong!
_Oh! too bad it's already class time. Whimpers Laura.
_Yeah! See you after class then. Let's go Celess! announces Jack.
_ Later! adds Celess as she follows Jack to their classroom.
_Us too Eli! reminds me Laura.
_Yeah! let's go!
As we approach our new class we find a small commotion; a group of girls at the door sneaking glances and littles squeals. Then when we enter the classroom, a young handsome boy incites my interest with his black short hair and well defined features everyone's gaze would slowly be drawn to him. Especially his deep blue eyes, it's like I am being sucked in that pretty melancholic color. Now I see why the girls are so eager.
_ Oh, my god! ☆*:. o(≧▽≦)o .:*☆ Eli! Do you see that guy?! So handsome! whispers an excited Laura.
_ Hhhh. Yeah! I see him, I see. But don't you already have a boyfriend Laura?
_ Those are two different things!! Seriously! she replies with a half serious half annoyed expression.
_ Hhhh! Okay! Fine, I am sorry!
(Ah this conversation is...)
_ The teacher is here. says one of my classmates.
Well it sure was a long day. I got to know some new faces and I was able to spend a great time with my best friends. At school most of the classes were introducing sessions so I don't have any homework just things to buy. I wonder what's for dinner?
_ I'm home!
_ Welcome back honey! welcomes me mom with a warm kiss on the forehead.
#_What!? Is Eli ok?
_ Please don't worry madam, she's fine only small bruises. But it would be better if she does a complete check up at the hospital just in case.
_ Oh! I see thank god. #
_ Eli! Are you listening? asked mom with an angry tone.
_ I'm sorry! did you say something?
_ You're just like your father! So absent-minded! If not for me who was home at that time he would've lost an important client! complains mom with all her might .
(Oh! so it ended well for dad. I'm glad)
Anyways, how was your first day at school? Good? she continues.
_Yeah!
_ That's great! Now go change and then come down for dinner.
_ Right away!
*...and finally my "Incredibles" powers are useless because I can't change the future even if I predict it.
