I hear a voice in my head but it's unclear and muffled. It must be a dream, a dream of my wolf.

I shift awake and see my brother standing in the doorway of my room.

"Hey Clove! It's your first day of school, you don't want to be late!" He exclaims smiling so wide, looking very energetic.

I don't know how he does it. Have so much energy in the morning! He's a morning person and I just sleep all the time and feel tired all the time.
I groan and yawn, stretching in the process. Lucky me! I have school when my brother has no school. I will be alone knowing it will be just like all the years of my old school.

Invisible Clover! Which makes no sense because my name is a plant that brings luck. I have no luck whatsoever. My eyes begin to droop after the stretch.

"Come on Clove!" I hear his voice, but it's a ways away, meaning he's already walking away. I grunt and stumble out of my sleeping bag. I groan feeling a pain in my back. Ugh that's what I get for sleeping on the floor. I stretch my back making it pop, a sigh of relief leaves my lips. I grab some basic clothing from my box and a black hoodie. I don't want any attention dragged onto me.

After I put on my clothes for the day I head into the bathroom and do the basic morning routine of, brushing my teeth and combing my hair. Just that simple stuff. I don't wear makeup because it makes people look fake. Some people literally cake their faces in makeup and it makes me sick.

I run down the stairs almost tripping feeling the pain in my hip from yesterday. I almost forgot about yesterday's events. Ugh.

I walk into the kitchen and realise we have no food because we never got the chance to shop for food. We were to busy settling down. I sigh and turn to the window see my brother leaning against our car. I look at the time on my phone.
7:15 am
School starts in exactly a hour. I head back upstairs grabbing my art pad and headphones. Then grabbing the necessary school needs like pencils and pens, and notebooks. I stick everything inside my backpack that's a light blue with white polka dots. I plug in my headphones and put them over my ears and play the
Chainsmokers 'The One'
I like any music except country and some types of jazz. I can be picky with my music.

I scramble back down the stairs and head to the car. Both me and Kaine jump into the car. He begins to drive me to school. He's in his own world as I'm nodding to the beat of my music, whispering the words to the song.

I know it's pathetic
Fuck it, yeah, I said it
Tried to tell it like it is
There's a chance that I'll regret it, so

Let's go, let's end this
I delete before I send it
And we can play pretend
Like we haven't reached the end yet

I haven't notice we got to my new school until I feel a tap on my shoulder. I pause my music and pull off my headphones letting them rest around my neck. I like to say goodbye before I leave for school.

"Have a great day and make some friends! If any guys do any funny business with you, you know what to do! Then after you do that I'll go and-"

I interrupt him before he can finish.

"Don't worry I will hurt anyone that try's funny business on me. Not like anyone would..." I whisper the last part  more talking to me then him.

"Good now have a great day Clove!" He says reaching over and hugging me from his seat, not seeming to notice my last comment. I hug back, once we pull away I throw my hoodie over my head and put my phone in my pocket. I put the headphones back on and turn on my music. I head to the sidewalk in front of my school. I wave to him as he drives away. I sigh and walk towards the school. Okay I should go to the office for my schedule and locker number.
