Moira (Ateez AU)

Chapter Six

Waking up for school a couple days later felt relieving. You'd see the boys again today. You learned that you felt safer with them around. The last few days with your parents have been extremely tense since you now sport a bruise on your cheek bone along with a few small cuts. That day you had snuck the boys out through your window about an hour later.

Getting up you put on some high waisted black shorts with rips in them and a oversized graphic hoodie. Doing your usual bold eye makeup you then put on your converse once you were finished. Walking out the door soon after you begin your walk to school. During your walk you jump when you feel something on your shoulder. Looking to your right your eyes widened when you realized it was a spirit.

"Um hello? Can I help you?" You whispered to it. There were a couple people out on the street and you didn't want your neighbors thinking you were a crazy lady.

"Hello, dear. I can't seem to find the light. Can you help me to learn why I can't cross over and Rest In Peace?" The elderly lady spirit asks. You nod and look around subtly before taking her hand. Being a death witch, communicating and helping spirits was part of your duty. You even had a familiar. Your familiar was a white and gray ferret named sage.

You nodded to the spirit and took a deep breath, you were about to help when you heard your name called. The spirit panicked and left immediately. You sighed and turned to see the boys look confused and weirded out.

"Who the hell and what the fuck was that?" Yunho said as they got closer. You furrowed your brows in confusion.

"What do you mean?" You asked, looking up at the tree man.

"The old lady you were talking to that disappeared? Nari are you okay?" Seonghwa asked. Jongho put the back of his hand against your forehead causing you to sway at it and move back with a roll of your eyes.

"Yes I'm fine, I meant why do you look so confused?" You said. You genuinely didn't understand their reaction.

"Nari, what kind of witch are you?" Yeosang asked. Your eyes widened when you realized they didn't know. You couldn't help it, giggling as you turned around and began walking. The boys looked between each other before walking behind you.

You simply refused to tell them as you walked to school. Once you entered the gate you continued ignoring them until you got to your locker.

"Nari?" San asked. You smiled slightly at the fact he and HongJoong warmed up to you more. You hummed in response as you got your stuff ready for literature.

"You didn't answer Yeosangs questions." HongJoong said. You shrugged as you closed your locker and turned to face them.

"Because for a group of mostly demons you should be able to tell by my energy alone what kind of witch I am." You simply state before moving to walk away before looking to San, Mingi, and Jongho with raised eyebrows.

"Are you coming to class or not?" You questioned. The boys looked even more confused now but the three slowly nodded as they walked closer.

"If you can't tell what kind of witch I am by lunch, I'll tell you all. Okay?" You received a chorus of agreements before heading to class finally.

You were writing the answers for todays assignment in your notebook. Mingi was also using your textbook, so it was between the two of you as you silently worked. As you were writing the answer for a question you froze when you felt your teachers hand on your shoulder as he squatted down. You looked over to Mingi before looking at your teacher.

"Uh, Mr. Kim?" You questioned. You could feel your skin crawl at the aspect of this creep touching you. He looked up at you and smiled, making direct eye contact. It took everything in you to not grimace.
