A/n Before you start, no she is not Venus. Well, she can be if you want, Venus has similar features. I don't imagine Venus as anyone actually, I think it would be a shame to put a face to the name, since she's supposed to be absolutely beautiful. I sort of imagine her as a mix between Selena Gomez and Rowan Blanchard, but whatever floats your boat. Enjoy.

It was my first day at Westwick High. There was something odd about this place. Some weird tension. Not only that, but this place gave me the creeps, I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but I didnt want to either, I was afraid I would end up finding a dead body or something.
We had just moved in yesterday, God knows how long it took to unload and unpack.
"Ok im out, bye mom." I said placing a quick kiss on moms cheek. Dad had already left for work and said goodbye before he left. I really didn't feel like going to school, another day wasted on things you wont need later in life. We all know what a load of crap that is. It was created as a torture system in the 1600s or something. Im guessing.
It took me about five minutes to get to school. As soon as I got out of the car, just as I expected, people were staring. I mean, small town, new rich kid, makes an appearance with flashy car, what should I have expected? All eyes were on me as I walked down the hall.
I dont know what it was, but the bright colours of the school seemed to be weighed down by the massive aura of loss and depression. There was something missing in this school. It lacked spirit and liveliness. It wasn't the school actually, it was the people. They were lifeless and dull.
I was walking about, I had gotten my schedule, my first class began at 8:20 which left me about an hour to explore the school. I looked around a bit, examining every nook and cranny of the school.
I noticed a poster, no, more like a picture, a picture of a stunning girl. Even from the picture, you could tell she was probably the most lively person you'll ever meet, her eyes sparkled. I couldn't compare any of her features to anything i've seen. She had brown eyes, the colour wasn't special, but the shape and the way they sparkled said otherwise. Full lips, plump and perky, but not to big, they were naturally coloured a dark, rosy shade of pink. They were tinted. She had pretty cheekbones, not to defined, and she had a sharp jawline, but not to the point it looked indelicate. Her eyebrows were neatly plucked, but they filled out their shape, unlike most of the girls here who draw their eyebrows on with sharpies. Her eyelashes were long and naturally curled, and her hair, this sounds weird, but her hair was perfect. It had ringlets loosely hanging down her back, and it wasn't completely neat, it was messy, but not to the point where it looks unnaturally messed up.
After I was done examining the picture of the enchanting girl, I saw "Rest In Peace, We Will Miss you." Written on it, with black bold letters. Oh.
She was dead.
Shame.
I walked around a bit more, explored a bit more, until I came to a bench in a small area of the school. There was a patch of grass, surrounded by benches, there was a room before it though, the locker room. The locker room was located directly in front of it. It wasn't a room, it was basically a bunch of lockers put together in front of a garden-like-place.
As I passed the locker room, I heard sniffling, my heart dropped. I couldnt stand the thought of a girl crying. But although I knew I shouldn't have intruded, my curiosity always got the best of me.
As I was about to make my way to the back of the locker room, I hear another voice, this time male, say, "Tals you need to calm down. We cant let anyone find out. You know what happens if someone does."
