That night, I had a dream. I dreamt of the terrible pain of my body burning while the reality of my dying faces me. My eyes were closed so I didn't know where I was. I was numb. I didn't feel anything around me. Just pain. And then, it stopped. There was no more pain, but all feeling came back to my body. My hands curled over the soft surface I lay on. When enough strength returned to my body, I opened my eyes and I was met with a blinding white light. They say that when you die, you see a bright light and you walk towards it, but this was different. I knew I was in a dream but it felt real. It was like the pain and numbness that I felt was real. But staring into that nothingness of white, I felt real. I couldn't explain it. I was alive, but dead. And then, I bolted up in my bed soaked in sweat and darkness. I looked over at my nightstand and saw that it was almost 3:00 am. I still had a couple of hours but I didn't want to go through that pain again. I pulled the sheets off me and went to my bathroom. I quickly splashed some cold water on my face and brushed my teeth. Then, all of a sudden, I got a searing headache. I set my elbows on the edge of the sink and held my head in my hands. I looked down toward the floor and closed my eyes. I just stayed like that for a couple minutes then opened them. I lifted my head slowly to look in the mirror but when I looked up, there was someone behind me. I quickly turned around but saw nothing. I brushed it off as my mind playing tricks on me. Soon after that, I walked back into my room and went to sleep. The pain I had left as I drifted in unconsciousness.

I woke up with my mom pouring a bucket of ice on me. I sat up quickly drenched in cold, icy water as my mom came into sight.

"Kat! I've been calling you forever and your alarm is driving me crazy!" my mom yelled.

"What do you mean?" I looked over at my alarm clock and almost had a panic attack. It was 7:48 P.M. Holy shit if I didn't hurry I was going to be late for school. I quickly threw the blanket off of me and and threw my hair into a messy bun. My mom then ran into the kitchen to get me some breakfast so while she was gone, I threw some sweatpants on and a tight tee. I grabbed my bag and all my books from my desk and ran outside grabbing a piece of toast from my mom. I quickly ran outside but stopped short when I noticed a black Lamborghini in my driveway.

I stood there wondering who's it was for about a minute until Jace stepped out and offered me a ride. Seeing as how I would be late if I walked, I agreed. I hopped into the passenger seat and laid my head against the window. We rode all the way to school in comfortable silence. Before I knew it, we were already parked in the school parking lot at 8:00 am, twenty minutes left till the tardy bell rang and I was in a parking lot in a Lamborghini alone with Jace. There were very few people in the parking lot right now. Only two or three. As I started to unbuckle my seatbelt, Jace set his hand ontop of mine to stop me. I lifted my heas and met those beautiful, mezmorizing dark brown eyes. As cheesy as it sounds, I felt like the world stop. His head started to lean closer to mine face and when it was inches away from my lips, the moment was ruined by the school bell ringing and making me jumped in my seatbelt.

We sat still in our seat shocked for about five seconds until Jace got out of his car and slammed his door shut behind him. When I thought he was just going to storm off into the school, I quickly grabbed my stuff and jumped out of the black Lamborghini. I was surprised to see that Jace was standing outside my door. We quickly headed into the school in uncomfortable silence. When we got inside we just stood there staring into each others eyes. I find know how to feel. Mad that he tried to kiss me. Happy that he likes me like that. Or sad because it didn't happen. He didn't give me time to say anything because as soon as I opened my mouth, or even made a movement, he stormed away to his locker and on to his first class. I was starting to feel mad that he was just about to kiss me and then he just stormed off. I didn't feel like going to class anymore. I didn't even want to go to my locker. It's, like, right next to his! So, instead of going to my locker and then class, I stormed off to the girls locker room. The only place I knew no one would be. There are no cameras and no one had activity, or connections they called it at this school, for first and second period. Which was how long my first class last.
