"Kayla Eden."

She stood tall and tilted her head with a small sweet smile. Her long blonde hair flowed down her back straight as a pin, but looked softer than a feather. She popped her hip after a moment when I didn't move or speak.

"You're acting as if you've seen a ghost Scar." She laughed slightly, her perfect laugh.

She walked towards me her heels clicking. She wore white linen flare pants with a cross-over cut-out waistline. Her top was a gray cropped pullover drop shoulder. It accentuated her collarbone and her slim feminine shoulders. The way she walked has always been as if there was a red carpet rolled out just for her.

She came up to me and pulled me into a hug. I hugged her back knowing this had to all be an act.

"Aren't you going to ask me why I'm here?" She smiled brightly. I wanted to raise an eyebrow, but decided to play along.

"Why are you here Kayla?"

"Because I missed you so much!" Kayla hugged me again and pulled away before I could hug her back. "Why do you seem so surprised?" She paused putting on a fake pouted. "After all S we are...best friends." I couldn't hide my fear anymore. My eyes widened at her words.

"Kayla..." I started.

"I'll let you get to your next class but I'll see you after." She waved at me and walked off in the same direction Rock and half of the school did.

I stood in the same spot not being able to move. I put a hand over my mouth in terror.

She found me. My past has finally caught up to me.

After all my classes Kayla was no where to be seen. I wished I had imagined the whole thing, but Kayla Eden's presence is too powerful to be imagined.

I had gathered all of Floras class work and entered the Chase residence knocking on her door.

"Who is it?" Her little voice squeaked out.

"It's Scarlett, Goldie." I heard someone shift then the lock on her door coming off before she opened it. "Hey." I said when she opened the door.

"Hi." She replies simply walking back to her bed and getting back under the covers. I closed the door behind me. "W-will you..." she stopped and I watched her eyes stare at the door handle. I already knew what she was asking. I turned the lock on before walking towards her.

"So I brought as much as I could. Trix and Roxy also gave you a copy of their notes from Professor Clark's class." I told her showing her everything in the folder that I put her work in.

I haven't utter a word about Flora's situation to anyone. I asked Roxy and Bellatrix for their notes for Flora and that was that.

"Oh that's right you're in a different Chem class now." She nodded looking at the papers, I nodded back at her watching her scan through all her work.

"Did you eat yet?" I asked her. She didn't eat much last night, but it was as much as I expected she could stomach.

"I had some orange juice." She mumbled not looking at me.

"Well it's past 3:30. I'll get you something from the kitchen." I told her and she only nodded still studying all the school work.

I knew she probably wouldn't eat much of what I brought her or any at all, but I got to at least bring her some type of substance. I exit her room and start down the hall to the stairs.
