I woke up and looked at the clock. 4:30 in the morning again. Why do I keep waking up at the same time? I knew I wouldn't be able to go back to sleep so I turned on my laptop. I logged on to Netflix and started watching a scary movie. When it was about 6:30 I started getting ready for school.
I pulled on my black Peirce the Veil sweater and some skinny jeans and converse. I brushed my long dark brown hair. I looked around for my beanie. When I found it I put it in. I started to out on my make-up. When I was done I went downstairs to make breakfast. My parents only come by the house once every month so I pretty much have the house to myself. While the waffles were cooking I decided to try it again.
I got out a candle and set it on the dining room table. I just sat there and stared at it. I was concentrating on the candle. The candle caught on fire without anybody lighting it. Ever since I was little I was able to do strange things. My mother could do these things too but we keep it a secret from my father. He doesn't know we can do these things. My mother told me we could do much more than just little tricks but she won't tell me how.
After I ate I headed out the door. It was the beginning of October. The air was cold and it smelled beautiful outside. I walked passed the woods. While I was passing I just stared at it as if I was waiting for it to swallow me whole. I made it to school. The cheerleaders were out practicing. One of them was having a make out session with a football player near the side of the school. I walked into my classroom trying my best not to get in the middle if their session and sat down in the empty seat in the back. After the bell rang our teacher started talking.
"Class we have a new student joining us. This is Jeff. He's not really new he just got his schedule changed"
I looked at the guy. He wasn't bad looking. I definitely haven't seen him around here at all. Maybe he was in the suspension hall. But then I would see him at lunch which I never have.
He had really dark shaggy hair. His bangs swept across his face. He wore a white hoodie and dark skinny jeans. I could see a bit of food stains on his shoulder. Probably ketchup.
The teacher sat him to the desk next to mine. We both made eye contact. I studied him. When I realizer I was staring, I quickly looked away. He gave me a glare. I'm such an idiot. The bell rang for lunch.
