The next day I woke up at 6:15am, as usual. So I carefully got out of bed without waking Brian up, and I went to the bathroom to put on my makeup. I wore all black makeup today, black eye shadow, black eyeliner, skin toned rouge, black eyebrows, but rose-red lips. So almost all black. But when I got done putting on my makeup, I this time curled my hair and put it up in a ponytail, with my fangs laying straight on my forehead. Then I got back to Brian's room at 7:00am. And it seemed like Brian woke up.
- Sorry! Did I wake you up? I asked and was sort of worried.
Brian shook his head.
- No, you didn't, if you did I would've told you to keep it more quiet! Brian said and laughed.
I laughed a little. And once Brian were out to straighten his hair, I got dressed. Today I wore a Guns N Roses-shirt, blue ripped jeans and white socks.

When I got done dressing up for today, I got down to the Brian's kitchen to get some breakfast. I took a sandwich and a glass of milk to drink. Brian got down exactly when I got done eating breakfast.
- Do you want me to give you some company while you're eating? I asked Brian nicely.
- Yes, please, Brian said and got something to eat.
So I gave him some company while he was eating his breakfast.

When me and Brian arrived to school, we saw that someone were missing. Alice were missing.
- Hmm, that's strange, I said while thinking.
- What? Brian asked.
- Alice is missing, I replied.
A teacher came.
- No need to worry about Alice, she's fine, she has decided to quit this school, the teacher said.
I asked the teacher why, but the teacher didn't know, and neither did Brian know. But I forgot about that for the moment and got indoors with Brian. "We're just in time for the lesson!", I thought. We were a quarter early for the lesson. So we just sat there and talked - until the lesson began. And oddly enough, this lesson were quite interesting.

After school I decided to follow Brian to his door (again), and then I got home.
- Hello, I said as soon as I came in at my place.
Quiet.
- Hello? I repeated instantly while putting off my white converse.
Still quiet.
- Anyone home? I asked and got a bit nervous about if something has happened to my mom. Hello?
It was still quiet! But then I saw a note. It said;
"Dear Ciara,
When you read this - I want you to know that I need to do an extra-shift at work, so don't worry, I'm fine. And in case you'll get hungry, there's pasta with chicken-and cheese-sauce in the fridge! I'll be home at 10pm! See you soon, Ciara.
Love, your mom."
- Okay, good, she's fine, I thought and got eased.
I took the note to my room (don't ask why, I don't know why), and I'd put it on my desk. Then I would get rid of my bag and put off my jacket and hang it on my bed. For once in a few years I'm home alone, and it was quite nice, honestly.

The hours passed by and I took some dinner, turned on the TV and watched something about art, tattoos, hair colouring and masks. It was interesting, yes, but I fell asleep during the mask-thing. Until my mom came home at 10:05pm.
My mom woke me up.
- I'm home, she said carefully.
I woke up slowly and stretched my body.
- I should probably go to sleep, I said and got up from the sofa.
My mom nodded.

I took my makeup off, got my hair back to normal, changed from my daywear to pyjamas and got ready to go to bed. As soon as I got ready for bed I shouted:
- Good night, mom!
- Good night! Sleep tight! mom replied.

I got to my room, turned off the light, and fell asleep.
