"Where's Tyler?" My best friend, Carla, asks.
"He's staying home," I answer.
"After everything he did to you he gets to stay home?" Carla questions, although it sounds more like a statement then a question.
"Oh I wouldn't worry, mum will have something even worse in store for him," I say, chuckling.
"Serves him right," Carla laughed.
I nod, recalling a couple of the events. I look at my watch. "I better get going to mathematics. See you in the break!"
Carla grabs her phone quickly and checks it before the teachers see. There was a strictly no phone rule in the school. It doesn't stop students from looking at their phones, but it lowered the chance of a student on their phone in class. I hop up and grab my water bottle before leaving for class.

"The other night he tied string to a chair and the lounge to try and trip me over, but I saw it before I could trip," I tell Carla. I don't mention the possibility that I may of seen a werewolf - a real werewolf - after that.
"Geez, what's wrong with him?" Carla asks in disgust.
"Who knows," I say, taking another bite of my sandwich.
"Anyway, there is a new student," Carla begins, starting a new conversation.
"Yeah, what about it?" I ask, half in a daze. I still haven't been able to shake off the thought of werewolves being real and alive, lurking out there in the dark.
"Laura!" Carla shouts, waving a hand in front of my face.
"What!" I snap without meaning to. "Sorry, just in a daze."
"About what? Are you ok?" Carla inquires, looking concerned.
"Oh don't worry. So what's this thing about this new student?" I question, trying my best to sound interested.
"Like us, he is in grade ten of course—"
She stops as I say, "I see where this is going."
"Yeah, whatever, he is really cute—"
Knew it.
She stops again as I blurt, "What!? You have a boyfriend remember!"
"I know, I know, but you don't have a boy—"
There she goes.
I cut her off once again, " don't even go there." I put up my hand as a stop sign.
"Gotta stop cutting me off, it's rude," Carla says, annoyed.
"Your only my friend, you will handle a few rude actions," I complain. She rolls her eyes, ignores the stop sign I put up earlier and continues to keep talking on and on.

After lunch, I walk to my next class, music. I sit down in a seat, only to have to get up again.
"Piano please, Laura," the music teacher orders.
She got me confused for a minute, but then I realised she was assigning everyone to instrument she knew they could play. I sat in the seat behind the piano, feeling at home. I loved the piano. I loved playing 'Rolling in the Deep' and 'Set Fire to the Rain' both by Adele. They were my top two.
