 Arias POV

  I sighed as I sat up in bed the sun shining through my windows. Last night was awful, dad and I got into a screaming match over me dating Jacob Black.

In the end, I ended up storming out and running to Sam's place. I don't see my older brother as much as I used to, since he moved out and to a house with his finance.

Sam has been acting weird lately, he has been short-tempered and snapping more than usual.

I chalked it up to stress from Dad, he's been pushing Sam to take over the garage for months now.

Shaking my head free of thoughts I stand up out of bed, my feet padding against the floor as I walk to the closet to get ready for school. "Aria! Are you awake?" I hear Sam call out from behind the door.

"Yeah! I'm up getting dressed" I call out in response.

I wave my hand and a pattered skirt, cropped grey tank top and cardigan appear on the hanger next to me. (Up top!)

Funny thing, I'm a witch. It happened a few months ago

Flashback

I was walking through the woods, enjoying nature. I had always loved being outside the trees seemed to talk to me as I walked.

I hear branches snap behind me, "well well well, if it isn't the Alpha sister" a dark voice cooed behind me. I turn around quickly, "who are you? Who's 'the alpha" I question as my voice shakes in fear. I knew e legends but didn't want to believe they were true.

"You smell good little girl" the voice purrs from behind me. I jump and turn, seeing a pale woman with black hair and striking red eyes. I scramble backward, trying to get away. Fear coursing through my body I try to run. The lady lunges for me, causing me to scream and throw my hands out. The red mist suddenly erupts from my palms, wrapping around the woman.

"Impossible!" She screeches, thrashing in the air.

I stand up, my body moving as if it's not my own, my fist squeezes. Causing the woman to let out a scream, I squeeze my fist tighter till the woman starts to crack under the pressure of the magic. The woman falls, her body in many pieces. Suddenly the pieces catch fire on their own.

'oh my god?!? What was that?!? What did I do?!' I freak out mentally. Before hearing Sam call me in. I try to relax and make my way back to the house.

Flashback Ends

I dress, putting on my jewelry. Long necklaces with crystals, rings, bracelets, and grab my purse. A brown cross body messenger bag.

 The only person I had told, about me being a witch was Paul Lahote. We were best friends, attached at the hip. Where he was I was. It wasnt off to see us together 24/7, we were super closer.

Till a few weeks ago, when he suddenly completely ghosted me. I went to his house, nothing. I called him, but nothing. 

He finally messaged me 2 weeks ago saying:

'Aria stop texting. It's pathetic. I'll never see you as anything but a freak with freaky powers. Stay away from me'

To say I was heartbroken was an understatement. I've been in love with Paul since we were kids, but I guess I'm too much of a freak to be friends with him. Since then I haven't called, texted, or tried to see him.

Sam has stopped bringing him by the house, saying something along the lines of 'It's complicated'

Slipping on my black sneakers, I walk out of my room at Sam's place. "Hey Sammy, Emily!" I squeal and run to hug my sister-in-law.

"Hey Ari" Emily, Sam's finance chuckles."I heard about the fight with your Dad. Made you your favorite for lunch to take to school," she says and swings the blue lunch bag in front of me.

My eyes light up, "turkey wraps?! With your special sauce?!" I ask excitedly jumping up and down like a child. Emily nods her head, laughing at me, and hands it to me.

Me and Emily had been best friends for years before she left to go stay with her mom in Arizona. Sam had been dating Leah Clearwater, Emily's cousin when she came back. A few months later, Sam and Emily were dating. I was over the moon, but Leah took it hard. Started avoiding me as much as possible.

Sam laughs from behind me, "You guys are like children! Now move Aria, give me my financè back!" Sam whines like a child.

"Nope Sammy sorry, I'm stealing you, girl," I say and kiss Emily's cheek jokingly, running out of the house when Sam tries to grab me. "Bye! See you later!" I call out as I see Jacob Black, my boyfriend of a few weeks pull up on his motorbike. I hear what sounds like a growl as Jacob kisses my cheek, coming from inside the house.

I turn and see Sam glaring at Jacob, shaking slightly. I tilt my head in confusion as I stare at him, shrugging it off I turn back to Jacob, "Hey Jake!" I say and smile at him.

"Hey Aria," he says, lacking his usual excitement.  "What's wrong Jake?" I ask concerned.

"We um we need to talk, let's go I'll explain when we get to school," he says gesturing to his bike.

I shrug and climb on, wrapping my arms around his middle. I rest my head on his back, taking a breath.

I pause as I smell a girl's perfume, I shake it off thinking it was his sister.

Time skip, at school

"Aria we need to break up. Bella is moving back and needs me" is the first thing Jacob says to me when I get off his bike.

"What?" I ask, hoping I misheard.

"I'm breaking up with you. I cheated on you anyway, Bella is so much better. She's prettier too" Jacob says coldly before he shoves me into the lockers.

I stand there, my eyes wide and filled with tears. Sliding down the lockers, I reach for my bag with shakey hands.

I dial randomly, praying it's Sam.

"Aria?" I hear Paul say sounding pissed, I hadn't meant to call him my I was trying to call me brother. I hear shuffling in the background.

"Paul...I'm sorry I was trying to call Sam" I say trying to sound calm but a small sob leaves me anyways.

"Aria?? What happened? Why are you calling?" He asks, sounding angry.

I take in a shaky breath, my heart hurting.

"N-nothing sorry to bother you" I say before hastily hanging up.

Ignoring the calls back, I dial Sam's number praying he answers, "Ari?" He answers worriedly. I let out a sob into the phone, "Sammy" I sob out "Can you come get me" I whimper out.

"What happened?! I'm on my way!" He says sounding mad.

I yelp as I feel warm arms around me, and my phone is yanked out of my hand "I got her Sam, I'll bring her by your house" I hear Paul say into my phone.

"Paul?!" I ask through tears.

He looks down at me, his eyes meeting mine. I hear his breath hitch as he goes into a daze. Suddenly he pulls me into his chest, his arms wrapped around me tightly.

"I'm here little witch" he murmurs into my hair. I break down into sobs at the nickname. Having missed him terribly, I wrap my arms around his middle and hug him, needing him close to me right now.
