   Chapter 3: Part 2- Aftermath
   P e t e r ' s P O V
   I got home to my empty large house, and took in the silence. " It was always like this" i thought to myself. i called my dog- "Maya, come here girl." Soon i heard her long claw like nails on the tile floors, and i smiled as she came trotting over. i bent down and pet her behind her ears. She licked my face and i laughed. "Gosh, you're so dependable and loyal" i said to her in that high, sing-songy voice. That statement made me think of Thalia, and i glanced at the grand clock in the hall way. 6:49. i stood up and looked down at my dog. "what do you say girl? Do you want to head out to the park with me?" Maya cocked her head and barked. "yeah, i thought so." i grabbed my keys again, and with Maya bounding behind me, we both got into the car and sped down the road.
   ---
   i got the the huge park right at 7:00, and i hoped that Thalia hadnt forgotten. i took Maya's leash in my hand i started on the trail connecting to the parking lot. All of a sudden i heard a guitar over the childrens screams and laughs on the playset, and i followed the sound to the pond... i saw her. Her dreadlocks hanging down her back, and the tie-dyed shirt gave her away. She was sitting near the edge, playing guitar to 'Dust in the Wind' by Kansas. After the first few chords, she began to softly sing. It was one of the most beautiful sounds i had ever heard. Soon, i found myself humming a long, and i joined her at the chorus. It reminded me of in Sleeping Beauty, when the Prince joined the princess' singing in the woods. She imediatly stopped singing and turned to look at me. i smiled and she blushed. "there was no need to stop, you have a great voice." i told her. she let out a breathy, single laugh. "Thanks." she got up and dusted off the seat of her pants and looked at Maya and smiled. "You brought a friend?" she questioned as she bend down. "Yeah, i have to warn you she isnt very friendly to stran-.." Maya was licking Thalia's face and rubbing her big body along her legs and arms. "She seems pretty friendly" she said while laughing. i smiled. "Well, i guess she likes you." i said outloud. i thought to myself... "And shes not the only one."

   Chapter 3: Part 1- Aftermath
   T h a l i a ' s P O V
   I made it home right on time. "Good, you're back, i was begining to worry." My mom said while looking at the bills. She shook her head and let out a sigh. "Is everything alright?" i asked as i sat down next to her at the kitchen table. "Not really, Thalia. I don't know how i am going to come across this month's house payment." i bit my lip. "Dad isnt making enough?" i questioned. She looked at me. "Thalia, look. There's something i havent been telling you for a few weeks now." i swallowed, fearing what she might say. There was a long pause, and then she took a deep breath. "You know, nevermind... i don't want to worry you. Lets go to the eye doctor to havr those eyes of yours looked at, and then enjoy the rest of your night, okay?" i smiled. "okay." i agreed.
   ---
   The doctor said my eyes were 'critically vacillating' which i took as 'your eyes are messed up'. Yeah, i had gotten that a lot. i just ignored it every time. trying to clear my mind about how my mom was going to pay for the perscription eye drops and the surgery i might need, i drove to the park a few minutes past 6:30. Hopefully Peter knew which park i was talking about. there was only one in this small-ish town. Luckily it wasnt crowded. Since i was a bit early, i decided to grab my guitar and i headed out towards the pond and took a seat near the water's edge. Guitar was a way for me to escape life, and let my mind into something completly different and care free. Some people thought i was crazy when i explained that. i closed my eyes and strummed away to the beat of the watery surface's waves.

   Chapter 2: Part 7- First Day
   P e t e r ' s P O V
   It was almost 5 minutes past 12, and i was waiting for Thalia in the cafeteria. i started to shake my right leg, a nervous habbit i had since i was a little boy. "Maybe she decided to ditch me." i thought to myself. it wouldnt be the first time someone thought i wasn't good enough. maybe she was waiting by her car. i quickly walked past all the noisy lunch tables and strode towards the parking lot. i reached the spot where i first saw her getting out of her black honda, and, it wasnt a surpirse when i saw the spot was empty. "Great, why did i think she was different from any of the others?" i felt my heart drop. "she seemed so perfect" i thought to myself, as i kicked at the gravel beneath my feet. i trudged back to the school's building taking as much time as possible. the 10 minute warning bell went off and i grabbed my things and made my way to health class. i dont know what i was going to do when i saw her sitting in that class.
   ---
   i walked up the trailer steps, and saw her sitting towards the back of the room. she smiled at me and i dismissed her by looking at the ground. "Peter, you are at that seat over there" the teacher said. "Thank you sir" i mumbled as i walked over. i saw my phone laying on the desk next to a new one. i picked it up and examined it confused. it said i had gotten a text message from 'Thalia :)' that read "Peter, i hope ur not 2 mad at me that our lucn was canceled, i got u a new phone considering i smashed ur old 1, and it is pretty much nonexistant now. if ur pretty bummed about it, go listen 2 Machine Head by Bush, they always make me feel better ;)" i glanced her way and mouthed 'THANKS'. she was doing her smile again. i laughed and shook my head. my phone buzzed again. "So how about u meet me tonight at the park 7?" i replied; "wouldnt miss it 4 the world"

   Chapter 2: Part 6- First Day
   T h a l i a ' s P O V
   I walked into class, in what felt like a daze. How did i get into this? Oh yeah, i slammed some random kid with my car, and it just so happened to be the best looking guy i had ever seen, and not to mention he had the best personality... and a killer music taste. it all seemed to good. i glanced at the teenagers sitting around, and i picked out a few faces from previous years. people shot me rude glances, and whispered to their friends. "oh my god, look at her hair." and "whats wrong with her eyes?" i had grown to ignore comments like these, so i grabbed a desk near the back of the room and took a seat. i felt something in my pocket, and i dug it out. Peter's phone laid in my hands. "Oh no." i muttered as i looked at how much damage was actually done. his phone was completely in 2 halves, the screen was shattered, and the paint was chipped on one side. the battery was still intact. i thought about what to do. emediatly i had an idea.
   ---
   The lunc bell rang, and kids rushed from the classrooms and billowed into the crowded hallways towards the cafateria or the parking lot. i ran as fast as i could to my car and hopped inside. Peter's lunch meet was going to have to wait for a day. i sped down the road to the nearest Verizon store, and went inside. the little door chime went off, and a store's clerk came over. "Ma'am what may i help you with today?" "Yes, hi, i need a new phone." i told her as i held out Peter's old phone. "Well, i will see what i can do for you." She took the broken phone into the back room and came back with a box. "Here, this is a brand new phone of the same kind." i let out a sigh of relief. "can you sync all of the information onto the new one while i'm here?" She smiled. "Sure thing, easy as pie." i purchased the new phone and carefully slid it into my pocket. "Thanks again." i shot back into the store as i walked through the exit." i got back into my car. "good, i have just enough time to get back and not be late for Health class."
   ---
   i made sure i was the first one into Health, and i approached the teacher. "Hi, i'm Thalia; can you please tell me where Peter is going to sit?" He glanced at his list. "Peter Galiger? he is going to be sitting at desk number 14," he told me as he glanced towards the left of the room. "thank you," i replied as i set the 2 phones onto the hard wood desk. "Thalia, you can take seat number 28" said the teacher. i sat down just as students were coming into the class room. Then i saw him.

   P e t e r ' s P O V
   'Why did i just ask her if she liked Sublime?" i thought to myself. Oh well, i liked her answer, she seemed a bit confused; and why wouldnt she be. She looked at the ground while biting her lip. "I like Pearl Jam too..." she said quietly. i smiled. "Yeah, they're pretty good." there was an awkward pause... "So.." i started, "what classes do you have?" she told me all of them. a wave of dissapointment came over me as i realized we only had 1 class together which was Health. "Here, let me walk you to your first class." i offered. she accepted the invitation and grabbed her bag from the back seat. We started walking towards the first door, and i looked over at her. We made eye contact and i glanced away. "Again, i'm sorry for hitting you with my car door." she said. i laughed. "Its not a problem, i can still walk." She smiled that adorable smile again that showed all of her teeth. She was killing me.
   ---
   a few hundred feet later we reached her first period class, "Well, here we are, room 305." i told her. "Thanks." She replied. "Im Thalia, by the way." Thalia... thats a pretty name; i thought to myself. i held out my hand. "And i'm Peter." "Say, want to meet me for lunch?" she reajusted her bandana on her head, and shook my hand. "Sure, why not, see you then Peter." She replied as she strode into her first classroom.
   ---
   God, what am i doing? i asked myself as i made my way to Chemistry. i just about asked a girl on a 'lunch date' within 10 minutes of meeting her. i shook my head. "Oh well, i hope its worth it" i mumbled under my breath. It should be, right? After all, she was charming.

   "Holy Sh*t." i thought to myself, i just hit someone with my car door. i panicked, got out of the car and saw a guy crouching on the concrete. "Oh my God" i didnt know what to do... at all. He groaned and i reached for the broken phone a few feet away. i did my best to apologize as i helped him to his feet. i didnt get a good look at him until he stood straight up. i tried not to raise my eyebrows.
   ---
   His skin was pale, almost white, and on his face was the perfect amount of splattered tan freckles. his eyes were so light i couldnt place the color. i tried not to stare. Light blonde hair tumbled over his forehead as the rest of his head was buzzed to a short crew cut. he was pretty tall; maybe around 6 foot 3 inches, but not broad and buff like all the other boys i had seen so far. he was in a pair of black straight leg jeans, and a band tee that he had cut into a tank. i pressed my lips together and waited for him to speak. "God, why was he staring at me?" i wondered.
   ---
   (Peter's POV)
   i rubbed at a knot in my side that was forming from the impact, and i looked to see who had almost knocked me over. Standing before me was a girl with olive skin, the perfect complextion. Not fake tanned like all of the other girls around California. She was tall for a girl, almost reaching my height. i noticed her hair was long because a few dark strands fell from the messy knotted bun at the back of her neck. multicoloured dreadlocks sat attop her head. Blonde, red, and black. a bandana was tied above her forehead, which made me study her face.. i looked at it for quite some time. her slender nose was placed in the middle of her face, and i noticed a small ring in her left nostril. under that, her lips were full and perfectly shaped. Then i looked at her eyes. My God. her right eye was blue, as blue as the sky above our heads she blinked and the flecks of gray reflected from the sun. her left eye was so interesting. the majority of her eye was dark, like a deep brown, only a small section of white was present in the outer corner. i tried to get her image out of my head as i looked at the ground.
   ---
   faintly in the background i heard 'Santeria' playing from her car. i chuckled."1992. You like Sublime?" i looked up. Her face was confused and clouded with worry. "what- i- Yeah, i love them." she gave me a half smile. Cute.

   Chapter 2: Part 3- First Day
   P e t e r ' s P O V
   I drove my VW Micro Bus to school that morning. finally my last year of highschool, i couldnt wait to get out of California and go across seas to New Zealand. The whole 10 minutes was a blur. mixed emotions came flodding over me. Sammy wasn't going to be able to spend our last year of high school together, we planned on it.. from day one... and now she was gone- forever. i shook the memories from my mind and took a breath from the cool air outside my window. Nirvana came blasting through my speakers, and i turned it up. stopped at a red light, i was banging the side of my car with my hand to the beat of 'Smells Like Teen Spirit'. "Ah, 1991" i said over the music. i smiled and glanced at the car next to me. my smile soon faded- in the car was a guy with his girfriend, they were holding hands and they were laughing. i leaned my head against my head rest and though of Sammy. "im going to have to get over her soon." i told myself. i pulled into the school's crowded parking lot and got out. a few jocks near by looked at me and my set of wheels and smirked. i rolled my eyes and headed toward the door.
   ---
   Looking at my phone i was distracted as to where i was going and- SMACK! a car door slammed right into my torso... hard. i doubled over. "Owch, Hey!" i called out. "Oh-My-God!" i heard a feminine voice say. "Here, let me help you." My vision was blurred from the pain and i saw a figure crouch down and pick up my phone that had split in two halves. "No, its-im--" i was cut off. "im so sorry, i should have been watching, stupid me." i leaned up and looked at my attacker... i was surprised.

   Chapter 2: Part 2- First Day
   I had never been to school before my 9th grade year, so to me, i was pretty new to the whole 'school' thing. As i trudged down the stairs i could smell bacon and eggs for my brother. i grimaced. "Good morning honey." my mother said with a beaming, full smile. "Well, someone is chipper this morning" i replied with a sarcastic smile. "Whats wrong with her mommy?" my little brother Julias asked. i shot him a dirty look. "She just doesnt like first days of school" my mom told him. "More like school in general" i mumbled. My mom sighed. "try to make it positive, okay?" i chuckled. "Whatever mom, i will see you at 3:30." i gave her a little half smile. "Okay, and don't forget you have an appointment with the eye doctor at 4:00; so dont be late." I threw my head back and let out a groan. this day couldnt be any worse, i thought as i headed for my car.
   ---
   i had taped my schedule to the dashboard of my honda, and i grabbed it and read it over one more time. British Literature at 9:00, AP Physics at 10:00, Algebra 3 at 11:00 and Health at 1:00. "i hope my teachers are alright," i said as i stared at the tiny print that was blurring before my eyes. i put my hand on the door handle and looked out my window at all the smiling faces of past classmates. i took in their new clothes, their skin that was bronzed from the summer sun, the girls' little tonails glittered with bright pink polish, and the boys' shirts were tight across their broad shoulders and somehow massive biceps. For a second, i wished that i was able to be like them... tall, slim, tan, curvy in all the places i wasnt, and perfect haired barbies. i shook my head, bit my lip, closed my eyes, and slammed my car door open. "Owch! Hey!" i heard a male voice say, as the metal door came in contact with his body.

   Chapter 2: First Day
   Beep!: Beep!: Beep! my alarm rang with that dreadful noise. i grimaced as i read the numbers on the small screen... 6:30 AM. "God, it's way to early" i mumbled to myself as i trudged from my cozy silk sheets and Pokemon blanket. i stretched and looked over to my huge lounge chair where my first day of school outfit sat. i stared at it suspiciously. "Did i really pick that out for the first day of school?" i shook my head in disgust. "It will have to do i guess." eager to get in the shower and feel the warm water trail down my body, i quickly slipped out of my dad's extra large tee shirt and stepped into the shower's steamy enclosure. "Ah, heaven." i said, and smiled to myself. My smile quickly faded as i remembered what day it was. the first day of my junior year of highschool. i groaned, and my shower all of a sudden turned much less enjoyable. i reached for a towel and looked at myself through the fogged up mirror. "Another dissapointing first day," i thought to myself. Would people recognize me, or worse... remember me as the strange girl with wierd eyes?
   ---
   Now, i have been going to the same, typical highschool for 2 years already, but each year it seemed to be completly different. i never knew what to expect and the nagging and teasing seemed to get worse. Ignoring the outfit i had put aside, i threw on my pair of black and white checkered leggings, dug my favourite Tie-Dyed shirt out from the hamper and threw it on. i studied my reflection in the full body mirror and scoweled at my reflection. "Ew.." i applied my eyeliner and makeup and then threw my mid-back length hair into a bun. i pulled a few stray dreadlocks down and put my favourite assortment of beads onto them. "Well, i guess thats a bit better" i said outloud, and strode downstrairs.

    Chapter 1: A New Beginning
    Lets start when i was first born; that dark and humid evening July 2nd 1993. i wasnt born in a hospital, i wasnt even born in a somewhat decent place. i was born on a table at a downtown San Francisco bar, and left there for who knows what. Yeah, i wasn't wanted- that was obvious. Some brilliant people found me and put me in an adoption home for little girls. By the age of 7, i still hadn't found a home to call my own, other than that rusty, squeaky bed in a large room with 10 other girls. finally nearing my 8th birthday a couple came in and saw me. i dont know what they saw different than all the other girls, but they strode over to me... ignoring all of the other little glances from across the room. Those girls- they hung their heads in shame, quickly realizing that i was going to have a home. Maybe some of them realized that they deserved it, that all the years of harsh torment was finally going to catch up to them. What ever the reason, i didnt care. i was out of that hell hole, and into a new home.
    ---
    So then it began- my new journey. My name changed- the weight of bad memories lifted from my shoulders as i was given the name Thalia Jane Morrison. i loved saying it, and i also loved writing it. i loved how the letters flowed together and i remembered in school i would write my name on that little blank space, and then erase it so i could write it again.
    ---
    Life was good. i was little and care free... or so i thought.
    (From here on out all of the chapters will be put into P.O.V)

    Thousands of Miles & Killer Smiles
    Prologue:
    Only 2 years ago, i had come to the conclusion that all of humanity wanted nothing to do with me. i was 16 then; naive and wanting to feel accepted by others. i had problems with people. i was shallow and unwilling to let anyone into my life. Maybe i pushed people away for reasons i didnt even know about.
    ---
    I didnt go to school like 'normal' kids did. 'Normal'; that one word. Once you think about it, you kind of realize its true meaning- You think of the usual, typical, or expected, but sadly i was anything far from 'normal' and people knew it. I Have Heterochromia; you know, that disease where your eyes are different colours? growing up i was teased about it, almost to the point of devere depression. My right eye is the color that both of my eyes are supposed to be- Blue. the deepest blue that is humanly possible to eye colors. i always loved my right eye, with its flecks of grey surrounding my abnormaly large pupil. As for my left eye, well thats a different story. Its brown. not the warm and intriguing brown that people rant about, or the brown that made Van Morrison write his song 'brown eyed girl'. Mine was dark, almost black. it wasnt spherical like everyone elses pigmented iris... it was almost square, my vision was blurred in that eye. it created a dark halo around everything i saw, similar to the way i veiwed life.
    ---
    Ever since, i truly believe i am 'different', and i have yet to find someone who can relate to me... that is, until i met him.
