The Whats Of Saturn

Stars Pov

My name is Star Fischer. I’m not like any ordinary human, I look like a human but, with powers. There are more like me, but we’re all in hiding. I never knew that I had powers, or that I was adopted. I was just a normal teenage girl when my friends started to notice weird things about me. My eyes changing different colors, reading minds, talkingto other people with my mind. I also found out that my friends were keeping secrets from me. Who knew that vampires, werewolves, fairies, ogres, and all of the mythical creatures were real and finding out that my friends were those things. I wasn’t mad or anything, but they did tell me everything. But first, let’s get to the part where I’m just plain and boring.

It was dark outside. I was in my room just laying on my bed. “Time for bed Star!” my mom said from the hallway. “Mom, I’m sixteen years old. I don’t have to go to bed right now.” “You have school in the morning,” she said coming into my room and turning my light off. After when my mom went downstairs I got out of bed and closed my door.I walked to my window and looked outside, the stars were out and it was windy a little. I love looking out my window to see the stars twinkle. I went back to bed, I laid there for awhile until I fell asleep.

My alarm on my phone woke me up, it was only five, but, I got up anyways. I put my favorite black jeans on, along with my white shirt. I was putting on my makeup, when my friend Katherine called me. Katherine has long brown hair, hazelnut eyes, and she loves to wear her black boot heels. Katherine and I met in seventh grade choir. We have gotten along really well since then. Katherine was always there for me when my dad left and when my mom started to drink. “I have news, about a really cute boy,” Katherine said over the phone. I rolled my eyes when I was fixing my hair. “Blake Taylor’s GramPix is blowing up!” Katherine said. Blake Taylor, super hot senior, has short brown hair, brown eyes, and has a really nice smile. I’ve bumped into him a couple of times, he’s really polite. “Blake Taylor is going to ask out a girl to homecoming, but, he’s too scared.”

Katherine picked me up and we went to school. I looked outside my window to see the football players acting like idiots, like always. When I got out of the car, Katherine said my name, “Star watch out, the idiots are pulling up.” “I hope they crash,” I said walking to the front of the school. The football players were standing in front of the school doors. “Hold up! The Queen is back and she is looking more hot than ever!” Jacob said blocking mine and Katherine’s way.

Jacob, has black hair, green eyes. He’s on the football team. He has a really huge crush on my, he acts tough when he’s around me, but, we all know that he’s weak. “I’m not a Queen,” I said looking at Jacob. “Move we’ll be late for class,” Katherine said. “What’s the password,” Jacob said. “Get the fuck out of my way..., please,” I said walking towards him.Jacob put his hands up and moved to the side. The rest of the football team moved with him.

“Did you put contacts in?” Katherine said trying to look at my eyes. “No, why?” I said opening my locker. Katherine’s dumb friends were yelling and pushing people out of their way. “You guys need to chill out,” I said closing my locker to face them. “I’m sorry my Queen,” Alex said. “Stop calling me ‘Queen’ before I kick your ass!” I said.

I hate learning but, I love to write. My teachers made me take a bunch of notes, but, I didn’t really care.

Katherine came up to me with a big smile on her face. “Blake and his friends were talking about you.” “So I don’t care,” I said walking through the gym doors. “Good morning everyone, my name is Mr. Keith, I will be your gym teacher. Starting tomorrow, we will get started on football, make sure you bring your gym clothes. Today is a free day,” Mr. Keith said.

Katherine got a volleyball, and I got a soccer ball. “So, are you going to the homecoming this year?” Jacob said trying to get the soccer ball away from me. “Why do you care if I go or not?” I said. “Watch out!” someone said. I looked up to see a volleyball in the air coming towards me.

Someone caught it, thank god! But that someone was Blake Taylor, he turned around and smiled. “Hey Star,” he said. “Hi,” I said smiling. Katherine shouldered me. “Aren’t you going to answer the question?” she said looking at me. I rolled my eyes. “Now what kind of girl plays soccer in heels,” Tyler said. Tyler has blonde hair and blue eyes. Tyler had a crush on me in second grade. His hair was really long back then, but now, it’s cut and spiked up. He also hangs around with Blake Taylor.

I stopped the ball with my foot and turned around. “Let’s soccer and find out,” I said grinning. Katherine took me by the arm.

“Ask her out Blake,” Tyler said whispering in Blake’s ear.

“Hey Star!” Blake said running up to me. “Can I talk to you before lunch starts?” “Sure.” The bell rang. “Meet me at my locker,” I said turning to leave the gym.

“Did you ask her out?” Tyler said. “All I said was if I could talk to her before lunch starts ,” Blake said walking out of the gym. “And what did she say?” “I’m meeting her at her locker before lunch starts.” “Good luck, tell us everything at lunch.”

Katherine was walking with me to my locker. “Hey Kath,” I said. “Yeah.” “I can...um...” I said stuttering. We stopped at my locker. “I can...listen to other people from afar.” Katherine gave me a plain look and shrugged her shoulders. I seen Blake walk my way. “I’ll see you at lunch,” Katherine said leaving.

I smiled at Blake when he walked up to me. “I know we don’t know each other, but, I was wondering if you wanted to go on a date with me,” Blake said looking into my eyes. I didn’t know what to say to him but, I think I did say something. “I’d love to go on a date with you,” I said smiling. “Good, can I pick you up tonight at seven?” Blake said letting go of my hand. “Sure,” I said trying not to blush. “I’ll see you tonight then,” Blake said leaving. “Bye,” I said smiling.

Oh my god! I can’t believe that Blake Taylor asked me out! On a date! With him! I can’t believe that Blake Taylor was holding my hand until he let go! Oh my god! Why am I so happy about Blake Taylor?!?! I said in my head.

When I walked in to the cafeteria, I seen Katherine waiting in line for her food. Alex looked up at me when I sat down at the table. “Don’t even say it or think about it,” I said glancing at Blake. We both made eye contact, when he smiled, it made me smile.

Oh my god! I just remembered that I didn’t tell you guys about Alex. So, Alex has black hair, green eyes, and is freakishly strong. I met Alex two years ago at lunch when he scared the living shit out of me. Alex knew who I was because Katherine would always talk about me to him. He would always forget my name, so, I told him that I was out of this world.

“So what happened?” Katherine said sitting next to me. I looked at her. “Between you and Blake.” “Oh! Right. He asked me out, no big deal,” I said. “Actually it is a big deal. A junior like you, and a senior like him. Damn Star!” All the boys are going to be jealous,” Alex said. “Who are the boys going to be jealous of?” I said. “You.” “Why me?” “Your fucking sexy!” “So what is he picking you up and when are guys going?” Katherine said. “Tonight at seven. Why are you asking?” I said.

The day went by fast for last few hours of school.

When I got home, I didn’t check my phone at all when I was at school. So, when I checked my phone, I had a couple of text messages. One was from Jacob, he still wanted an answer about the homecoming, but I didn’t answer him. The other text message was from Blake, he was just letting me know that we were going to a carnival. I was surprised that Blake was taking me to a carnival. I’m kind of glad because, I don’t want to call up Katherine to help me find an outfit.

I sat on the front porch waiting for my little sister Cece’s school bus.

Cece has long brown hair, brown eyes, and she can be sassy at times, but, I still love her. I don’t know what I’m going to do about Cece. I could either take her with me or ask Jacob to watch her because, my mom will be working late tonight.

When Cece came home, she had her hair in a ponytail, she wore her favorite pink jacket. “How was your day?” I said opening the door for her. She ran inside the house and went upstairs and into her room. Cece hasn’t talked to me since I got into fight with our dad, and I ended up slapping him in the face. The reason why I was fighting him, was that I found him and one of his secretaries in his snoodling around with each other. So, he left us three girls on our own.

it was only six-thirty when I went into my room to get ready. I kept my black jeans on and I kept my tank top on while I was curling my hair. “Is it a bad thing or a good thing?” Jacob said coming into my room. I looked at him. “Cece opened the door for me, then she went upstairs.” I just shrugged my shoulders. “Why Blake?” Jacob said. “Why Blake what?” “Why did you choose him?” “Why do you care who I choose?” I said turning around to face him. “Blake Taylor is a player, he just wants to get into your pants Star. He doesn’t know how to treat a girl.” “How would you know.” Jacob came towards me. “You should’ve said no.” “Why.” He looked at me, and he turned away and left my room.

When I went downstairs, Jacob was in the kitchen, he looked at me when I walked in. The doorbell rang. I left the kitchen to open the door to see Blake Taylor standing on my front porch. He was wearing his black shoes, blue jeans, and a white t-shirt. I smiled, “Hey.” “Hey...um, you look nice,” Blake said stuttering. Jacob cleared his throat. “Thanks, and Jacob is only here to watch my sister.” “Oh. I got you a rose,” Blake said giving me a rose. When I took the rose from him, I blushed.

He opened his car door for me. What a gentleman, I thought. On the way to the carnival neither of us spoke to each other. The only thing that Blake did do was put his left hand on my left leg.

When we got to the carnival, Blake held my hand. We played ring toss. I won. I picked out a stuffed tiger and I gave it to Blake. We played a bunch of games. “That was fun beating you,” I said. “Alright, enough with the games, let’s go on the ferris wheel,” Blake said spinning me to the line.

When it was our turn to go on the ferris wheel, Blake put his arm around me when we sat down. When we got to the top, Blake and I both looked at each other. “I like you Star,” Blake said leaning in close to me. I didn’t know what to do but we both kissed each other.
