Fifteen year old Ellie was one of the best students at Magewood Academy for Girls. Ever since she was young her parents have left her in an academy to live by herself. She had become very independent at the age of eight. Ellie was a beautiful girl with dark brown eyes, tan skin, and wavy hair. She was admired by her peers and her teachers thought the best of her. The day had started out well, except for the fact that one of her classmates had been murdered. At 5 am, she woke to the sound of screaming. At the time she didn’t know what to do or think, she was frozen. Somehow, she knew exactly what was happening and she didn’t try to interfere with what was happening. So she lied there not feeling the need to help. Ellie was strange that way. No one knew that side of her and no one ever would. …show more content…
Despite being very popular, she had no friends.
The only person she showed interest in was the cook at the cafeteria, Will. They had been friends ever since he became the cook at the Academy. But today something was different, she could tell. During lunch she looked all over for Will, in the kitchen, the bathroom and in the hallway. He was nowhere to be seen. So she finally decided ask Quincy. “He was arrested this morning for being suspected for the murder”, Quincy explained. It took her a minute to comprehend what had just come out of Quincy mouth. So instead of speaking she ran out of the cafeteria and kept running until she got to the police
station. “I’m here to bail out William Clarke”, she shouted while panting from running all the way there. “Little lady you can’t just come in here and expect to bail your friend out without any money”, a chubby police man said. Before anything else could be said she pulled out a large wad of cash and handed it to him. “Welp, young man you are free to go”, the policeman said to Will. “Ellie, what are you doing here?” “I came to free you, of course”, Ellie said with a bright smile on her face. Will and Ellie walked back to school just before the bell rang. “Won’t you get in trouble for leaving school grounds without permission”, Will said. “Maybe, but I don’t care. It was worth it.”
She waved goodbye and walked away to her class. Will was left alone to think.
Will had always liked hanging around Ellie. She was nice and there was some weird connection he felt. It’s almost if she had some presence around her that he was drawn to.
