Day One

My name is Salem Crowwood, my best friend's name is Ivory Grey. She did not kill herself and was murdered. She did not leave me alone. She wouldn't leave me alone. She wasn't depressed. She told me everything. Did I miss something? How could I have missed something? Was I that stupid? She was so happy. She was the child of the Head Master.
She was so happy.
I'm not blind.
This is my morning pep talk. Amazing right? I roll out of bed to get dressed for school. I got to Faye Academy. An amazing school in Maine, or at least on the outside it looks amazing. My girlfriend always tells me I'm not alone, and that Ivory killed herself because she couldn't handle her breakup with Onyx. But I saw her reaction. I knew her. I know she is just trying to help but it doesn't. I know she didn't kill herself. I know she wouldn't do that. We promised each other. I tell myself this every morning so I don't just get swept away in the normal now. I know it was murder, and I'm going to find out who killed my best friend.
