That's Marks car by the way,the one in the picture

-"My full name. It's Jade Belladonna.

He looked like a deer caught in headlights. His eyes were wide and his mouth agape.

I dare say he was...shocked.

He stared at my face,like he was deep in thought.

He shook his head,as if finally getting out of his thoughts.

-"Have a nice day Jade,contact me if you need anything." He gave me a gentle smile and drove off.

Well...that wasn't weird at all. Note the sarcasm.

I just left it at that and walked into the court yard,listening as the gates closed behind me with a horrible metallic screech.

-"Who was that?" A voice asked. I nearly jumped out of my skin.

Looking around for the source of the voice,I saw Nicholas.

He was seated in a bench near some bushes.

His black hair was tousled and his face held no emotion.

-"Who was who?" I asked,trying to avoid answering any of his questions.

-"That man,the one that dropped you off and looked like they just told him that magic is real when you said your full name?" He asked,raising an eyebrow.

-"He's a wizard" he rolled his eyes at my respond and sighed.

-"Whatever,we need to talk." He said.

Getting up from the bench,with his hands in his jacket pockets,he began walking towards me.

-"Talk about what?"

-"You know what. The day after the party. The day I found you in the forest ground about to die."

-"I don't have time to talk. As you can see,I'm late to class" I began walking in the direction of the school but he grabbed my wrist and turned me to look at him.

-"Since when do you care about class?" He questioned. 

-"Since I made some type of contract that I can't brake. Now,let me go" I said through clenched teeth,avoiding straight answers.

He let go of my wrist and practically pushed me away from him.

He looked at me straight in the eyes "This conversation isn't over" he said and walked towards the willow tree.

I was running through the hallways in search of my third class,magical defenses with Mrs.Hart.

I've never been to this class,don't judge me. I think I've been in this school two or three days, now that I think about it and I've only gone to two classes.

I am so behind! I'll have to ask Bonny for her notes. 

I finally found it and practically burst through the door.
