I was really starting to wonder if anyone had really seen Ben today. He hasn't been coming to school lately and I was starting to get worried. Well not starting to.....I was. Ava can't seen to find him anymore, but says he doesn't sleep at all. All my calls get forwarded to voicemail. All my text went unanswered. After what happened Tuesday at school. I had been trying to keep an eye on him.


Tuesday:

Sophia kissed me on my cheek.


"So you sure you want to go to the dance? I haven't really seen you dance before. I didn't take you as the dancing type." Sophia said to me.


"Well dancing is one of my many hidden the talents." Somehow I managed to get her to blush. I looked at her smiling face. Right when I was about to kiss her, I noticed I could hear Ben's thoughts. I had been listening to his thoughts a lot more lately. From what I was hearing, Ben was freaking out.


"Sophia, I'll be right back." She looked at me confused. I didn't waste anytime. I left out the library and went down the hall. I pulled myself inside his brain, but I was being pushed out. Something was causing him to freak out. I ran down the hall, Jazz burst into the bathroom but she backed out slowly. Ben looked right at me. Jazz growled lowly at him.


"Jazz relax." Ben told her. Jazz stared at Ben.


"You okay? You were in there a long time." Ben grinned, the corner of his lips curled.


"Yeah, weiner almost got stuck in the zipper." Jazz growled again at him again. "We better head back, I'm sure it wouldn't be long before Mrs. Finch comes looking." We started walking back. Ben went in first, Jazz grabbed my arm and stopped me


"You okay?" I asked. Jazz's ears were pointed, she was close to taking her wolf form.


"That's not Ben Riley." She said to me. "When I went in the bathroom I noticed right away. I can feel it, that person isn't Ben." I turned to her.


"What do you mean?" I asked her. "I heard his thoughts in the bathroom. He thought he was dreaming, then suddenly it stopped."


"His smell has change a little, but I can just tell Riley. That person isn't...." I put my hand over her mouth. She looked like she wanted to punch me. If that wasn't Ben, whoever is behind all this IS at school. Which means, they were listening. I stepped back from her and grabbed her by the arm. When needed to see my uncle.



"Stick with plan." I told Jazz as we entered the dance. I saw Ben right away and he looked like hell. I walked to Sophia.


"You look nice." I said to her. She turned around and looked at me. I've seen her in a dress many times, but still it was nice to see her legs.


"So do you, you look nice." Her fingers touched my black tie. The tie was Mom's idea. She kept gushing about how I looked like dad. Dad on the other hand let her go and on. Happy to hear talk about how much we looked a like. I still wish I didn't get mom's red hair. "I have to tell you, I'm not much of dancer."
