Friends Forever

Chapter 1

"Miss Foster, Miss Rue!" Mr Sweeney's voice cuts through the blaring music that me and Sophie were listening to as he yanks out the earbuds. I look up at his face as Sophie tries to hide behind her mid length blond hair. 

"Yes Mr. Sweeney? " I reply in a fake sweet voice.

His face turns red, "Do you think that you're too good to pay attention to what I'm saying?"

"I would never!" I exclaimed putting a hand to my heart.

His face turns even redder, "If you think your above this lecture, why don't you give it? Explain how a Lambeosarus  is different from the rest of the dinosaurs."

I open my mouth to say something but Sophie cuts in, "The crest of Lambeosaurus was shifted forward, and the hollow nasal passages were at the front of the crest and stacked vertically."

Pride swells in my chest. I smirk at Mr. Sweeney and he does the one thing that I thought wasn't possible: his face turns even redder. As Mr. Sweeney walks away Sophie flinches and my smile disappears.

Her telepathy

 When Sophie was 8 she told me about it, and ever since then I've tried to teach her how to block thoughts out like I can somehow do but she never gets it. Whenever she flinches that means she's hearing thing she doesn't want to, like insults. Mr Sweeney continues his lecture and we start walking behind the class. 

"Are you okay?" I ask Sophie.

"Yeah" She replies. But I know she isn't, she never is.

"Nice job, super freak" Anger boils in side me as Sophie tries to make herself smaller again.I turn around to see Garwin Chang- a guy wearing a T-shirt that says Back off! I'm Gonna Fart! He was bitter ever since Sophie and Me got into Yale and his rejection letter came in a week after. Ever since then he's bin jumping on any opportunity to bully Sophie.  "Maybe they'll write another article on you, Prodigy teaches class about Lame- o- saurus." He sneers at Sophie. 

That's it

"Go fuck yourself Garwin" I shoot back. His face turns red and he walks to join the rest of the class. Some random newspaper person found it interesting to write about two students who rejected Ivy league schools. Ever since then my mom hasn't let me go anywhere without someone with me.

I turn to face Sophie but she's already looking somewhere else. I follow her gaze across the museum to a tall, dark-haired boy reading yesterday's news paper with the photo of me and Sophie on it. As if he senses our gazes, he looks up to meet Sophie's gaze. 

SOHPIE POV

The guy I'm looking at looks up to meet my gaze.

I frown, something flickers in his gaze, disappointment?Frustration?My gaze meets his eyes again.

His eyes

I've never seen those kind of eyes. They remind me of the sea glass that me and Lillith found on the beach when we were little. I'm shook out of my thoughts when the sea glass guy starts to walk towards us. I'm frozen in place and I'm pretty sure if I look, I will see that Lillith is too. He stops in front of us and flashes a movie star smile. 

"Is this you?" he asks me.

I flushes and looks down. "Yes", I mumbles. Dread starts to settle in my stomach, I have a bad feel about this guy. 

He squints at the picture and back at her, "I never realized that your eyes are brown."

Stranger danger 

Lillith steps in front of me and faces the guy. "Hi, is there anything that I can do for you?" , she say with fake sweetness. 

Sea glass guy frowns and says, "Nothing, I just wanted to know."

Something's off

The turns around just as two classes of kindergarteners enter the museum. I winces and hold my head in her head.

The kindergartners pass and I lets go and opens her eyes. Fitz does the same and I stare at him

Shit, He's a telepath, just like Lillith and me.

"Did you hear that?" Sea glass guy says to me. Lillith looks at me and I read the words in her onyx eyes. 

Help, I need air. They say.

I got you, go.  I try to say back. She must have understood them because she bolted the next second.I turn to face sea glass guy.

"What the fuck-" I start to say but sea glass guy cut me off.

"I need to tell you-", he's cut off by a scream.

Lillith's Scream

I immediately bolt out of there and see a car driving towards Lillith. 

"Lillith!!!" , I scream. Time slows as I stare at her I try to run to her but I'm too far. 

I NEED TO GO FASTER

"LILLLITH!!!" , I scream. Time slows as I start to run but I'm too late. The car driving straight towards her. In all the panic she somehow turns toward me and the words in her eyes are the words I don't want to believe.

I'm going to die
