Something wicked
This way comes

I had no idea what got into Hunter. But I liked it. French passed quickly as I stared out the window.

It looked over the basketball court and I watched the school team practise. "Miss Lance" my teacher said.

I zoned back in and realized the bell had rung and I was the last one in class. I gathered my stuff. "Sorry" I mumbled to her, escaping her questioning gaze.

Hunter leant on the opposite wall and stood up when I emerged from the class. "J" he said.

I smiled at him. "So I had a crazy thought in bio" he said, brushing back his blonde hair.

"Oh yeah, don't think too hard, your head might explode" I joked.

"Sassy" he replied

But than he turned serious. "The dance is in a week and well you and I are the only people without partners" he said.

"Uh that's not exactly true" I said biting my lip.

Hunter slowed to a stop, which made me then around to face him. "I sorta said yes to William" I said, lowering my eyes.

"Oh" was all he said.

"Well than, I'm sure rocking up alone can be just as cool" he said, walking again.

"I'm sorry" I said, feeling guilty.

"Don't be, you didn't know this was uh going to happen" he said gesturing at the air between us.

I tucked my hair behind my ear. "Maybe I can talk to Will" I said, shrugging.

"No don't worry about it, if you've made a promise, don't break it" Hunter said.

I felt extremely guilty and I looked away. "Have you heard about Kelsey?" I asked Hunter.

He shook his head. "I'm pretty sure she went home, you know all that blood can make someone feint" he said, gesturing to his face.

"Eleanor took it too far" I said, shaking my head.

Hunter grabbed my arm lightly, bringing us to another stop. "Eleanor was protecting you" he said sincerely.

"And now I know the truth about Piper, I should go apologise to William" he said.

"Wait, you'd actually do that?" I asked beginning to laugh.
