God am I happy that it is Friday. It has been a hectic first week at school. Trying to avoid Nasty Nattily, homework, and trying to ignore the nightmares I have been having. The nightmares seem as if I have lived them before. More of a memory than a dream.
The bell to end 4th period rang and the English class filed out. I met Jasper and mike by my locker.
"So Quinn, have you ever seen someone play lacrosse?" Mike asked me as we were walking to the oval to watch the twins, Tom and Ed, practice with there lacrosse team.
"No, I can't say that I have seen nor played lacrosse. But even if I had, how would I know?" As soon as I said this Mike instantly went red and looked away worried
"Oh. I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that." He said shyly
"It's okay. I meant my response to be kind of funny. You mustn't be so serious when it comes to things like this!" I said nudging Mike in the arm and Jasper smirked and passed me a cheeky look.

I don't know why, but I gave Quinn a cheeky smile when she looked at me. She seemed so relaxed today, almost like see feels part of the family. We walk into the field and up to the bleachers. The twins must of spotted us because they were yelling and dancing from the other side of the field. I couldn't quite hear them correctly, but I guess it is the chant that they made up years and years ago. Chuckling to myself I take the seat next to Quinn.
                                   ~
"WE SEE THE PRETTY BOY!! OHHHHH JASPER YEAHHHH JASPER!!! YOUR NAME STARTS WITH J AND ENDS WITH R AND WE DONT KNOW WHAT TO SING NEXT!!! WHOOOO!!!" Ed and I sing out loud, well, more shout than sing. Coach Martin blew the whistle and the whole team ran to the other side of the field and back. Ed and I never get puffed when we do our runs. We can run 10 km without getting puffed due to our 'differentness' to the average mundane. We do 2 laps of the field, 50 sit-ups, 50pushups and 50 burpees for our warm up. Ed and I run up to the bleachers and sit down next to Quinn. We are mid conversation when Joe comes to the bottom of the bleachers, made sure Quinn was watching, and took his shirt off.

"Ahh you are wrong my brother! I am one hundred percent..." I didn't hear the rest of what Ed was saying because a very attractive boy comes to the bottom of the bleachers and looks right at me with his deep brown eyes. Then he took his shirt off showing off his tanned skin and toned chest and then ran a rand threw his silk brown hair.
He walked up right in front of us.
"So. The freaky brothers have got a plus one. Hi beautiful, my name is Joe. And you are?" Joe said. If he hadn't of called the boys the 'freaky brothers' and hadn't given off the sense that he was the best fuck boy around, I may have fallen for him.
"I don't think that my name is much of your business Joe." I stand up and said straight to his face.
"But I do believe that you do know the 'freaky brothers' names. And I would very much like it if you could apologies." At this suggestion Joe seemed to of been taken aback, but he soon recovers by planting his eyes on my chest.
"Hey mate. Either keep your eyes up there or piss off!" Jasper comes stands up and says right in his face
"Aha, and what are you gonna do about it blue eyes? Hit me? I'd like to see you try pretty eyes" at this jasper looked as if he was going to burst out and kill Joe, so I stepped in.
"You know, he might not hit you, but that doesn't mean I won't" to this I slapped Joe across his tanned face and he staggered back.
"Now I suggest that you take Jaspers advice and piss off, otherwise you will have real dogs on your hands" Joe gave me a death stare and then walked off stunned at my actions and words. Behind me Tom and Ed burst out laughing.
"AHAH that was the best thing I have ever heard you say! 'Have real dogs on your hands'! AHAHA" they both walk off still laughing whereas Jasper had a really straight face.
"Are you okay Quinn? He really had no right to do or say that." He grabbed my shoulders and looked me right in the eye.
"I am okay. You are right, he did have no right to say what he said to you and your brothers. As for looking and talking to me like that, I mean I am a girl what can I expect from an arse hole? He did deserve that slap!" When I say this Jasper just laughs and pulls me into a hug.
"You really are something special Quinn."

Jasper drove all of us home that night and when we walked through the door, we were welcomed by the warm smell of meatloaf.
"Come on! Dinner will get cold of you don't eat it now!" Ellie shouts from the kitchen. I take a seat next to Ed and Mike.
"The meatloaf is so good!" Said Tom with his mouth full from across the table.
"Mmmm yeah. Meatloaf has always been my favourite food" I said taking a huge bite out of mine.
"Um. Quinn what did you just say?" Asked Jasper with a stunned look
"Ah, meatloaf has always been my favourite food. Wait a minute! Meatloaf has always been my favourite food! Aha I remembered something!" I stated excitingly. I can't believe that I actually remember something from my past other than my name. I mean, I still know math and English and stuff about the world, but I don't know anything about myself of my family or anything. This is absolutely crazy!

It is as simple as meatloaf, but it is something. I am happy that she remembered something, but a part of me hopes that she doesn't remember to much. I don't want her to change. I look over at Ellie because I have a slight feeling that she might of made meatloaf on purpose. When we are all finished eating and say our goodbyes I brush that feeling away. Ellie said she doesn't know nothing, she wouldn't lie to me.
