I wake up on a bed in pajamas that aren't mine. How long was I out? I hear footsteps coming in. I sit up, and Jo is standing in the doorway with what looks like breakfast. She isn't wearing a T-shirt for once, but wearing a huge hoodie... never seen her wear anything like that to school. She's not even wearing anything British themed. Everything seems wrong. Jo sits on the bed, smiling at me as I sit up.

"You feeling okay?" She asks, making eye contact with me. It seems like she's staring into my soul, getting my deepest thoughts from my brain. "When you blacked ou' at school, I brough' you to my house, 'cause your mum didn't answer my text." I almost laughed at the word "mum", Jo's accent comes out when shes worried.

"It was terrible Jo." I start to explain the pain I had gone through before I blacked out, but stopped. "Wait wait- how long was I out?" I interrupted myself.

"Only abou' a day." Jo replies matter-of-factly.

"A day!?!" I didn't think pain could do that. "I thought you could only faint for a few minutes, then you wake up...!"

"I don't really think this is a normal case of faintin', Rin. No' many people can take that much pain" She winks at me knowingly, leaving me confused as all hell. How does she know more about my situation than me??


" 'ere, you need food" She pushes the tray with tea, buscuits, and scones toward me. Just like proper English breakfast. "And don' worry about your mum. I'll make sure my mum leaves her a message to tell her your staying at my place.

(By the way- side note. With Jo's accent- the ' in her words is like how some Brittish accents pronounce their "T's" or "G's". Just making it somewhat accurate ;3)

I start to ask a question, but Jo interrupts me with my answer before I even utter a sound. "You're probably wondering, what in the hell happened. With the pain thing, I'm going to explain it all to you later. Just keep eating, and get your strength up. You're gonna need it."

Jo leaves the room, leaving me with my own thoughts. What happened in the bathroom? Why did I feel like I was being shocked by lightning in my spine? How does Jo know so much? Is this normal and no one told me? After eating about 5 scones and two cups of tea, I end up putting the tray on the ground and drifting off to sleep.

(Cliffhanger, you're welcome. Going to be posting a big scene soon, but you needed an introduction before crap gets real ;3 hope ur enjoying so far)
