"Luna, I can help you." Luke says, grabbing my backpack out of my hands. I stare at him.

"It's fine, really. I may be a little shaken up, but I can carry my own bag," I assure, slipping on my jacket.

A girl comes up from behind me and helps me with it the rest of the way. "I've got it, Luna," She smiles and I sigh.

"Did Gabriel put you up to this?" I ask. They both remain silent. "Well?"

They give each other side long glances before shaking their heads. "No," They both say at the same time.

"Really?" I ask doubtfully. They simultaneously nod their heads.

"Hey, kids, how's it goin'?" July swings an arm around my shoulder and I glance at her.

"Good," They both say.

"I have a question," I raise my hand. They both turn to look at me. "Are you guys twins?" I ask and they smile at me, nodding.

"Yup,"

"Yes,"

I nod, smiling. "Names?"

"Josie,"

"Joe,"

I grin. "Well, hi." I greet, throwing my hands out in front of me. They both stare at them. I shake my hands, gesturing for them to take them.

They both slowly grip my hands in theirs and I'm hit with a wierd memory of sorts.

"Joe took my barbie, Mom!"

"No way! I did not! You're too old for barbies anyways!"

"Excuse me?" Josie cries, "One is never 'too old' for barbies!"

"You're sixteen!"

"So are you!"

"Not my point!" Joe hollers, shaking his head.

"Will both of you just shut up?" A motherly voice calls.

Josie and Joe stick their tongues out at each other before turning away.

I tumble backwards, slamming my back aginst the locker. What the hell was that? I massage my temples with my fingers and close my eyes. Fuck, I have a headache.

"Luna?"

"Luna, are you okay?"

Two different voices call at the same time. I give the twins a weak smile before straightening up again.

"I'm fine. Just a small headache is all."

"Did you-?"

"Did you not-?"

I put my finger to my lips, silencing them. "Don't tell, Gabriel."

"Tell me what?"

I scream and jump back, hands in fists. I lower my stance when I see it's Gabriel. "Oh nothing!"

"Luna can see our past!"

"She saw a memory of ours!"

"I witnessed the whole thing,"

I glare at the twins and July angrily. "Thanks for keeping a secret." I mumble sarcastically.

"You what? She what?" Gabriel asks curiously.

"She shook our hands and a memory flashed between us and she saw it!" Josie cries excitedly.

I sigh and shrug at Gabriel, feeling tired. "Can we talk about it later? I promised Dad that I'd come straight home after school."
