CHAPTER ONE
"I'm Susannah Simon. I'm what's called a mediator. I'm from the future. I'm here to keep you from being murdered tonight."
"Susie! Time to go!" I sighed as I rolled over to look at my clock. 7:50. Great, I'm late again. I put my clothes on and grabbed my bag. "Susannah Simon! That poor boy has been waiting for almost half and hour!" That boy? Oh no, my boyfriend was for me and I looked like I just rolled out of bed. Which I did, but he didn't need to know that. I darted to the door trying to smooth my hair as I ran. I saw him leaning against his car. He smiled when he saw me. "Susannah." I put my arms around his neck. "Paul." He smiled again and kissed me. "We better be going."
I should have known I couldn't make it past Sister Ernestine. "Miss Simon! To Father Dominic's office now!" I groaned and turned around and followed her to Father Dom's office. He looked up at me when I came in. "Susannah. What now?" I smiled as I got a Gameboy out from his desk drawer. "I was just late is all." He shook his head. "Susannah, what's wrong? You haven't been acting like yourself lately."
"Susannah, you aren't invulnerable. However much you may think differently." I looked up into his dark eyes. Who was he? He was like someone I was trying to forget.
"Susannah, did you hear me?" I zoned back into Father Dominic."Um." He sighed as he walked over to me. "Susannah, what's wrong?" I laid the Gameboy on his desk and stood up. "Nothing. I have to go. I'm late as it is. Mr. Walden wil kill me." He nodded and I walked off. I ran down the hallway to Mr Walden's room. "Why, Miss Simon. Thank you for finally gracing us with your presence." I smiled at him as I took my seat behing Cee Cee. She looked back at me and shook her head. Mr.Walden began teaching, and my eyes wondered out the window to the ocean.
"It well, it would have never worked out." I looked up ay Father Dom, I could have sworn I saw a tear in his eye.
"I know. She was a ghost, wasn't she?" I had no idea why, but for some reason when I said that, my heart seemed to stop beating. "Susannah." I looked up and saw him coming toward us. "Susannah."
"Susannah! Suze!" I snapped out of my daydream and saw Cee staring down at me. "What has been up with you lately?" I didn't answer her. I just grabbed my books and walked off to my next class.
My day pretty much went downhill from there. Finally, after the day was over, Paul came up to me."Hey, sweetie." He kissed me. "So,Suze. I was wondering if you had any plans for tonight."
"Sorry, Paul. Slee-I mean Jake has this friend he so desperate for us to meet. He's bringing him to dinner tonight. You know how Andy is." He smiled. "Okay. Tomorrow then?" I nodded and he kissed me one last time before he walked off. I made my way down to my car, yes MY car. My gaze fell on the graveyard that was beside the Mission.
"Jesse, that kiss- that kiss was the best thing that's ever happened to me." And then he kissed me.
I drove home to find everyone already at the table. Andy glared at me. "Sorry. I got held up at school." Dopey snorted. "Dentention again, Suze?" My mom shot a very disapproving look at me. "No, student council stuff." I made my way down to go sit beside David, when Sleepy walked in."Guys, this is my new friend, Jesse." Jesse walked in. I'll admit it. I stared. Not because he was tall, dark and extremely handsome. Well, not just because of that. No, it was because he looked so familiar. He noticed I was staring and smiled. My mom elbowed me and I managed to squeak, "Hi, I'm Susannah Simon." He smiled again and said, "Jesse de Silva."
"Jesse."
"Excuse me?"
"You called me amigo. I thought you might like to know I have a name. It's Jesse."
Oh. My. Gosh.
