Stormy P.O.V-

I check my make up, as I had just finished my eyeliner before I dropped it. Quickly pulling my black hoddie around my pyjama clothed body as I run down stairs to the door. "Stormy?" the voice yells again, a hint of familiarity following in the voice.

I see Lola scratching at the front door... I quickly open it to see Cal standing their looking at me. His brown eyes darker than normal; his face mainly blank. "Can I help you?" I question utterly confused... Didn't he get the message the other day?

"I came to apologise" He says,

"Cal" I cut him off

"No, Stormy let me finish, please" he begs causing me to go quiet. "I'm apologising for what I did not Luke or Ash or Buffy.. I'm saying sorry for getting involved in the argument and involved with everything that went on; it was wrong of me I shouldn't have done that. I here to take you to school, I'm not asking for your forgiveness, I just want to help you out by dropping you off and taking you too school." he says ... I stand slightly taken back by his words.

I move back from the door, without a word he walks in slowly; greeting Lola as I close the door. "I'm just going to get dressed" I breathe out and he nods lightly while stroking Lola. I quickly make my way up stairs, dressing in my black ripped skinny jeans, and my 1975 tank top and black hoodie. I quickly pull on my jewellery and slip into my black creepers before running down the stairs.

"I'm ready" I say to see Cal stood by the door, his eyes less brown now and more tinted with a golden orange. he gives a weak smile and nods, walking towards the door his car keys gripped in his hands. his figure clothed with the normal black skinny jeans, all black converse and his grey NASA top slightly ripped.

I quickly grab my black cat eared bowler hat placing it only my head and picking up my school bag that hasn't been touched since Friday night. "I'll see you later Loll's; be a good girl" I say giving a wave as she jumps onto the sofa curling into a ball. I close the door locking it before and following Cal and getting in the passenger seat of the car. The awkward silence to dead to bring back alive; unsure how to cut it and starts a conversation as he starts the car.

"Just, because we won't hang out with each other; and because you are taking me to school and back without the others doesn't mean it has to be in silence" I reply causing his straight lips to flicker into a small smile. "How do you know the others don't?" he questions he's voice dry as he speaks.

"I didn't, I thought that if they knew one of them would want to tag along. I guess" I reply shrugging

"Well you guessed right, I'm going to be straight forward with them if they ask though I have nothing to hide with you. I'm just trying to help you by taking you to school" He says while reversing off the drive and heading to school.

I give a nod of agreement not really knowing how I should reply... I just want this to be like how it is... not, not knowing what to say the not being stressed, not having to think about the drama going on just being able to have a normal school day with no worry to come home to my little secret.
