-=+ A Week Later +=-

3:30pm - I sit on the couch and watch YouTube through the TV, my dad walks in "Do you have homework?" he asks. "It's Friday! I can do it tomorrow!" He rolls his eyes, "Do it now!" I get up slowly and grab my book "You only want to watch the TV you are so freaking lazy!!" I go to my room to 'do my homework'. I go onto Instagram and talk to Storm.
S- Hey Belle, why weren't you at school?
B- My dad couldn't be stuffed taking me and I would die if I walked!
S- Haha, I can understand that
B- What happened at school?
S- Well, a lot of people are dead, like A LOT. Over half of the 12 year olds poof gone.
B- Err...

The teacher sits at her desk, "So as you can see, the class is basically empty.. Everyone is dropping like flys and I just want the rest of the year to be relaxed and basically hardly ever learning." I silently celebrate with Storm, "We also have a new student, she's a year 8 but hasn't got the letter." The girl walks in holding a drawing book. "Hi, I'm Cady Linkwater.. I like drawing.. A lot." She smiles at everyone, she comes and sits next to Storm and I. "Hi! I'm storm and this is Belle!" Cady smiles at me, she puts her drawing book on the table and begins to draw straight away. "Woah that looks so cool!" Storm says politely trying to make a new friend. "I think she's not listening Storm.." "OH! Sorry, I go into like a different world when I draw. I block out nearly everything. It's hard to get my attention, sorry!" Storm smiles at Cady...
