Nothing strange happened that night...

I walking to school normally, I find a love for the feel of the harsh wind beating my face.

Everything surrounding me feels happy and bright.

Almost jovial.

Even the boring houses on the side of the street seem beautiful. I can see secrets behind the cold, dark walls.

Memories.

Memories that aren't like mine. Great memories. Ones you refer to in joyful moments. The ones you share with teachers so they don't suspect depression.

Just genuine beautiful moments.

Period 1 - PSRE

Waiting outside the classroom, I catch sight of Ewan.

What a mistake.

"Oh look," He cries, "It's the magic disappearing girl!"

I just look at the ground; I can't react.

"Ha, she can't look at me!"

I then stare him in the eyes.

"You can't fool us Kacey!"

A strong fist comes flying at my face, and before I can react, I go flying to the floor.

My flailing arms try to block each hit, but I have no success.

Suddenly the punches stop, but I can't move.

"Kacey are you okay?"

I don't answer.

"Kacey, please talk to me."

"Who are you?"

"Miss Shaile."

"Where is everyone?"

"I've shut them in my classroom."

"I want to go home."

"Kacey don't, you've only just started coming back."

"I don't care."

"You can spend the rest of the day with me if you want."

"No way."

"Please Kacey."

"No."

"Yes you are."

"You can't make me."

"I recommend you do."

"Fine."

"Thank you," she says, "You can sit in my office for the rest of the day."

"Thank you Miss."

"Why did you give in Kacey?"
