inmortal by Sullen Brakedown (free novels .TXT) 📖

Have you ever felt inhuman, or like a monster? Its starting to get that way with me, I have only two friends, I'm not what you call pretty, and I have no interest in guys. I can't be like your average teen girl.
My father walked away from our family. Mother died earlier than she needed, she left before she died. She left me and my sister and brother alone. Me and my brother get along. He is a year older than me. My sister is younger and mom left when she was only a baby. So she calls me mom.
So school is okay, until I saw him at my locker. He was waiting there. I just walked to my locker and opened it as I usually do. Then he had the nerve to talk to me.
“ Hey, are you Talia Sanders?” his voice deep but humble.
“ Yes. May I ask who you are?” I asked?
I realized he was starring at me. His blond hair tousled, he had deep sea green eyes that made you want to look in to forever. I found myself staring as well. Then someone slammed a locker door.
“How in the world do you know my name?” I asked?
“ Well, I am your friends brother who just got back from moving away from my mom and he said that you could help me,” he explained.
Camry, you're gonna pay for this. You know I hate boys!
“ Fine, come with me,” I said.
I showed him around. I took him too his first class. When I see Camry, oh there’s gonna be a world of hurt when I see him ,if this goes well, I guess I will take mercy on him.
“ Camry, don't run from me,” I yelled.
“ Fine, what did I do now to make you upset?” he asked?
“ Don't try to play those boyish charms on me! You know full well. Why didn't you tell me you had a brother?” I asked?
“ Whoa, did you just call me charming? Oh, looks like someone likes me,” he played off my question.
I heard girls gasp.
“ Please answer me,” I said.
“ Fine, I didn't tell you because you don't have interest in those things,”he said.
“ Well, when he comes to my locker saying you sent him, I kinda want to know,” I said.
“ Oh, you're charmed by him too, aren't you?” he asked in one of his silly voices, poking me in the chest.
“ Stop, stop,” I said, laughing.
He stopped after Sally came by. She gave me the dirtiest look she could.
“ What crawled up her but?” Camry asked?
“ Love. She likes you,” I said.
“ Well, she can dream on,” he said plainly.
As the school day flew by, driving me nuts, I focused the hardiest I could. And at the end of the day, the last period, there he was.
“ Need help walking home as well?” I asked, rudely?
“ No, Camry wanted to know if all of us could go out tonight?” he asked?
“ Not if its going to be us three,” I said.
“ He said you could bring someone else,” he said.
“ Fine,” I said.
“ Eight ,” he said as he walked away.
7:30 that night...
Well, I have to take sis, and brother because there is a guy he has never met before. I can under stand that. But I hope Camry doesn't get mad because I am taking more than one.
At 7:40 everyone was ready, so we had to wait. But as usual, he came earlier than said. He was per-paired for more than one. We put the little girl ( Galia)by my brother Xavier. Galia means god shall redeem. My name, Talia, meaning dew of heaven. And , well Xavier means owns a new house. Well I think mom was drunk at the time.

“ Oh, by the way I didn't get your name,” Xavier said to Camry’s brother.
“ Its Dakota, it means friend in native,” he said, I could tell he was smiling.
Sometimes he made me so mad.
“ Well, mine means owns new house,” Xavier said.
“ What dose your name mean Talia,” Camry asked?
“ Well, mine means dew of heaven and Galia means god shall redeem,” I said.
“ And Camry has no meaning,” Camry laughed.
It got quiet after a while. Then I heard Galia laugh. She carried on having fun. I finally turned to see what had made her so happy. To my surprise, it was Dakota, he was playing with Galia. He was making faces. She laughed and smiled. It was cute to see Galia and Dakota smile. It reminded me of a father and child. Like if I had my dad at that age.
I became sick. My stomach felt in a knot. I turned around again. This time, not caring what happened back there I wasn't going to look.
“ So, do you guys want to get a milk shake? Oh, Talia are you okay?” Camry asked?
“ I feel a little sick but I'll be okay,” I said, not looking at him so he couldn't see that I was ling.
“ Okay,” Camry said.
We ended up going to the milk shake place. They carried on talking. I felt so sick I didn't get any thing. I didn't talk.
“ I'll be back,” I said.
I walked into the bathroom. I did get sick. I washed out my mouth, I did every thing to make it look like I hadn't been sick. I walked out of the bathroom. I saw that they were waiting on me. As I walked closer to the the table, Dakota stood. I was frozen in fear. His big hand went to my forehead.
“ Well, you don't feel like you have a fever. But I take it that you need rest because you were in the bathroom a long time,” he said.
I was scared of him, but he was only caring. I thought he was going to hurt me. Why was I so scared?
As we all piled in the car. I had to sit with Dakota. It was silent the way home. When we did reach the house, everyone got out. Dakota got out too. When I got out to go inside, Dakota grabbed my wrist. I turned around to face him. He looked at ease.
“ Please get rest,” he said, smiling.
“ So you knew I got sick in the bathroom don't you?” I asked?
He gave my hand a gentle kiss, then letting go he said,
“ Only if you want me to,” he said, in the way he said it I knew he knew.
I went inside, his voice in my head. With only that one day, I felt close to him, like I knew everything about him. And I was okay with it. But, when I was around him I got nervous, sometimes I even froze.
The house was quiet, all was at ease. When I put Galia to bed...
“ Mamma, do you like Dakota?” she asked?
“ Why?” I asked?
“ He likes you, do you like him?”
I froze, did he say that?
“ Maybe a little. Love you night,” I said, walking out the door.

Why would she bring some thing up like that? Did he say he liked me? And what was the whole if you want me to? Who is Dakota?
Down stairs I found Xavier, he was in the kitchen. He gave me a look.
“ So, what happened,” he asked?
“ With Galia? Oh, she just asked me if I liked Dakota. That's all,” I said.
“ Hmmm, is that why you have that big smile on your face?” he asked?
“ Well, he said something to me before leaving,” I said.
“ Good night,” he said.
“ Good night,” I said.
Chapter 2

As two or three weeks passed, I didn't hear from Dakota. Witch made me mad after what he said. He didn't even explain what he meant. He kissed my hand. Oh my name means friend, some friend not even talking to me. Its all ready Tuesday! How in the world could he hide? Maybe English class will help. English was after lunch and since I don’t eat lunch I guess I will just doodle.
So, I sat an empty table by the door that leads out side. When Dakota showed up.
“ So why are you hiding from me?” he asked?
“ I'm not. If I do remember, you're the one who doesn't talk to me for three weeks after saying some stupid crap that only you can understand,” I said not yelling.
“ What I meant was, I won't tell any one as if I didn't know,” he said.
“ Well, I still don't understand. But okay,” I said.
“ Well, I was wondering if some time we could hang out,” he said.
“ Uh, I guess, when?” I asked?
“ Today, I need a hand with my stuff, if you want to help,” he said.
Help him move in, is that bad? Well, we can only find out.
“ Yeah, I will,” I said.

So, we walked to his house.
