My eyes were glued close together.
I had cried last night but I persistently got up to get dresses, it was the 5 day of school, and as it was said every year beginning school romance was blossoming.
Jessica and Stone were meant for each other. As me and Tom were going, good. ”That S.O.B.” I said laughing to myself.
I wasn’t actually shore if I liked Stone, he seemed…………………….weird and kinda flakey but I’m shore that’s how he acts to everyone but Jessica. I was surprised how fast those two were moving. God look who turned into the slut this year.
“Niku hurry up” Jessica said slipping in through the door.
“Think of the devil and she appears” I said.
“Ah you were thinking of me!’’ I thought she was being sarcastic until I say the look in her eyes.
“What did you do” I asked seeing the little twinkle shine in her eyes, not in a cheerful way, in a guilty way.
She smiled, “don’t kill me”
“What did you do?”
“I told Ely” something.
“What”
“……………..I told him you and Tom were going to have sex”
“Why”
“Why don’t you tell me what happened between you two”
“He……. well um…………………… kissed me”
“Oh so that’s what he meant by, ‘you know what I want’”
“You heard him whisper that to me?”
“Yah, and can I ask why you cried”
“I wasn’t crying” I snapped in a yelling tone.
“So was it horrible?”
“What?”
“The kiss”
“Retched” No it wasn’t, I thought to myself. That’s not something you tell Jessica.
“Come on…………….”
“Come on what” I said, afraid she had sensed my lie.
“When did you start saying retched?” I signed and that’s all we argued about on the way to herboligy.
We got stuck planting mandrakes instead of our normal lessons because too many second year had passed out the night before, and herboligy being our first period class we got stuck planting the plants.
They were still toddlers and so the whined really badly. Two people got bit and the fucking little moody idiots hurt. I would have punched them if I was one of the two students, Steven Reyna or Liza Topaz.
Jessica and I walked to care of magical creatures talking about last night I think Jessica felt bad for blunt with Stone. I think she wanted to be kind and hear what was going on in my life instead of hers, I hope this didn’t last forever or I would have to tell her how Josh died, and who he was.
I tried the day that happened.
When classes end of course I felt arms rap around me pulling into someone.
“Lovely to see my girl’
“When did I ever say ’I’m your girl’?”
“Well just now in that sentence”
“Don’t get smart with me”
“Well someone sold me your schedule” He said.
“What” I said turning around.
“We have 3 classes together starting next week with astronomy!”
“Great so I have to see more of you”
“You know that you’re really hard to have feelings for”
“Then why do you”
“Let’s see, we look great together, your beautiful, deep down you have a great personality ect.”
I smacked him in the stomach."I'm not nice even deep down"
“That hurt”
“Oh I barely hit you”
“Well what you call barely I call bruise tomorrow”
“I’m so sorry” I said sincerely.
"besides dont, darkness is a harsh term dont you think"
"no, but i sorry for hitting you"
“To make it up to me let me take you out on a date. I will pay”
“Oh so now your implying that I can’t pay for myself”
“No……” he said worryingly.
“Calm down I was teasing”
“Well”
“No” I said
“Why not?”
“I’m hanging out with someone”
“Who”
“Ely” I said knowing it would upset him
“What?” he said almost yelling.
“Yah that’s right I love that Irish accent of his”
“No you don’t”
“How do you know “
“Well for one you just told it”

When I got into the condominiums I ran over to the couch. Everyone in the room was gathered around a couch in the center was Ely girls gawping guys laughing. He was fighting someone. Not a duel, a fist to fist fight. Ely against Tom, Ely on top.
