        After all those horrible classes it was time for my favorite peiod:Lunch.It was the only time to talk without some forty-year-old saying "Shhhh" right in you face.

I was sitting down with Angela with a tray of untouched pizza,...or an enchilada.I couldn't tell.I ate my apple while Angela investigated the unknown lunch lady made food.

     "I can't eat this.I had forgotten how gross school lunch looked like.I payed two bucks for this?!"Angela said,poking at her,uh,food and making a grossed out face.

     I tried not to laugh at how someone would actually charge two dollars for...an enchizza or pizlada."Ya that's why I always get an apple."I bit down hard into my apple biting off a juicy red peice.Good thing the fruit never tasted horrible.But then again it wasn't made by lunch ladies.

     "Wow,nice set of chompers you got there."

     "What do you mean?"I said not really understanding if she was insulting me or complimenting me.

     "It's just that you have really sharp teeth."She stared at my teeth as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing.I touched the bottoms of my molers with the tip of my finger.I pulled my finger back immediately.My skin was burning.My teeth were sharp.I stared at the tip of my finger and widened my eyes.My finger was...burned.As if i had just stuck my finger into a fire.I touched it and it was cold.Okay that was too freaky.

     "Want to go to the restroom?"Angela asked me as if she had the same problem.

I nodded and threw my trash away.

     When we were inside I kept staring at me teeth.They were normal again.As if they were never crazy sharp.I poked my teeth ready to pull back my finger but felt nothing."That was weird.I swore my teeth were sharp.My fingers still burned!"I showed her my burnt finger and she puckered her lips.

     "It's cold.Why?"Angela realized while examining my finger with curiosity lurking in her big,blue eyes.

     "I don't know ,but I've never noticed before.Maybe I just imagined it?"Angela stared at me as if that was a stupid idea.I didn't even believe it myself,you can't just imagine feeling sharp teeth then somehow getting burned.Especially when someone else saw your teeth too!My finger was all the proof I needed

     "Alli your gonna be fine.trust me."She put her hand gently on my shoulder and looked me straight in the eyes.Her eyes shimmered.Not anything like purple-eyed guy.This time it felt...nicer.Gentler even.

     "Sure,you're completely right.Lets go back."She smiled and let her hand swing back down to her side.

     Once we were back in the cafeteria mostly everyone had left.I sat down at a random empty table and looked around.ninth graders have lunch with ninth graders,tenth and eleventh together,and twelfth with each other.Nobody really cared what grade you were in.As long as you were over fourteen and under twenty.

     "I'm gonna go get a water from the vending machine.Want one?"

     "Um,sure.Thanks."She smiled and walked off.She looked like she was almost floating or flying kinda.As I kept staring I felt someone next to me.I turned and saw something familiar.

     His purple eyes weren't as bright instead they were a deepish/light purple.

"Hey Alli."He said and smiled.

     His teeth were white and perfect looking.His hair was still tousled but other than that he looked perfect.Just like Angela."Are you from Alaska?",I blurted out.
