      I sigh as I sit in my desk in my math class, I was just drawing a very detailed heart with flowers and other things around it. 'I can't wait till this class is over for lunch...' I thought to myself, sighing once more. Then the bell rang, I grab my stuff and walk out the door, but as always I'm the last to leave. I walk down the hall with my head down and my hood on, I suddenly felt someone trip me and and I fell to my hands and knees dropping the books I was carrying, I heard a girl giggle and a boy chuckle, I looked over slightly and there stood my old best friend...Grey Wolff, and his off and on girlfriend Tiffany Prescott. "Well, well, well, looks like little miss loner fell...Maybe you should be more careful!" She said pushing the book I was grabbing further away, then they both walked away, but I notice Grey had looked back a bit sadly. I quickly gathered my books and went to the big tree I love to sit in. I climbed up after putting my stuff in my backpack and sat there listening to my music, humming softly. "Luna! You up there?" I looked down to see the only friend I had, Blake Dryden. "I looked further down so he saw me and nodded, he started climbing up. "So, how's my Miss Dusk? What happened yo your hands they're all cut up!" I looked away. "I'm fine...Tiffany just tripped me is all..." I tried to fake a smile. "Yeah right! She's constantly bullying you and getting you hurt! I swear if she does it again I'll give that bitch a piece of my mind!" I grabbed his arm. "Don't...you know if you do one wrong thing to her, even just talking...You'll end up in need trouble since her dad is wealthy and the head of the school board..." He nodded and wrapped an arm around me, pulling so I was leaning on him with my head on his shoulder, I couldn't help but blush. "I know that...But I can't stand you getting hurt..." I wrapped an arm around him while he was still holding me. "Don't worry my Mr. Dawn , I'm stronger then you think" He smiled at me and I couldn't help but smile back.
 
     He and I sat in Art class next to each other, he passed a piece of paper towards me. 'I have to ask you a couple of things to ask Miss Dusk....I hope you don't mind, I know you hate questions unless it's truth or dare' I smiled and wrote back. 'I don't mind, what's up? You kinda seem nervous...' He turned away away for a minute. 'Well for one I...I, well the Autumn dance, the one before the Halloween dance, is next Saturday...I wanted to know if you'll go...with me?' I smiled and let out a small soft giggle,and as I was writing I saw Grey turn around,look at Blake and I then looks down and turns back. 'Sure! I've wanted to go for awhile now, and now I get to go with my best and only friend!' He rubbed the back of his neck. 'N-no...I...uh...I mean...as...My date? We can just go as friends if that seems way to awkward for you!' My eyes widened and I blushed a bit, both Blake and Grey noticed this, and Grey glared, which was a first, I didn't care. 'As your date huh?...Hmm...Let me think...Yes, I will so you'd better stay on my nice side or else you'll be in trouble' I wrote with a winking face. He blushed intensely.
    
     The week flew by for me, and everyday since Blake asked  me to the Autumn Dance, he and I have been spending a lot more time then we did before, now we were holding hands, laughing, and just being happy, I started to feel like my sad lonely world, was starting to change into something better, I even developed feeling for Blake, but something felt off for me. Like someone wasn't happy about what Blake and I were doing, but I didn't know who.

    It was the day before the dance and Star finally took me to get a dress, I picked out a beautiful dress, the top was royal blue with lace over it, and the skirt was a deep purple, I loved the dress as soon as I saw it, I ran over to Star and showed her. " Luna, it's the Autumn Dance, not the Halloween Dance" I rolled my eyes. "Star...I don't care what kind  dance it is all I care about is going, I want the dress, please do not make me pay for it myself..." She rolled her eyes and finally agreed. Hours later, I was sitting on my bed starring out my window at the moon, then something caught my attention, Grey had walked out his back door with a cigarette in his hand, I could hear him growling and yelling at himself. "God I can't take their lovey dovey crap anymore! I mean, I know I'm a jerk and I treat her badly, but that doesn't fucking mean I don't miss her! If I could I go in the past and change what I've done...But I can't...I hope she knows that I do still care about her...and I may even...No...I know that's the truth, but I can't say it out loud" He looked up at my window and I hid, but I was still able to see him as he lit the cigarette and smoked it. "I know you're probably asleep with the light on again...But I do hope you know who I'm talking about, I'll give you a hint, She's the oldest friend I have though I treat her horribly...I gave her the nickname simiar to the one he gave you...Miss Midnight...I know you know her...So tell her I'm sorry for everything I've done to her...and that I wish we could be friends again, but also if she wants...I'll never bother her again if she asks me to, goodnight my Midnight...I promise I'll be here if you ever need me..." He lookd at his cigarette and growled, smashing it into the table next to him, it made me jump at how angry he was with himself. I leaned out the window, he suddenly turned back towards my window and saw me, I waved, but he ran inside, I frowned at this, I heard his backdoor open back up, he was holding a big pad of paper and a marker. 'Hi did I wake you up?' He showed the paper to me and I quickly grabbed a notebook that I don't use. 'No, don't worry you didn't' I smiled a bit as he sighed. 'Do you think you could sneak out for a bit, I just want to talk...' I put my paper down nodded and told him to give me a minute. I put my shoes on and carefully snuck outside. I knocked on the gate to Grey's backyard, he opened it. "No one saw you did they?" He looked around concerned, I shook my head, and he pulled me inside and held me tight. "Uhh, what are you doing..." I couldn't control myself, I was blushing intensely. "I'm sorry...I...I want you to promise me something..." He said pulling away from me a bit, I noticed his hands were on my hips. "Umm, o-okay I'm listening..." He looked away blushing. "Promise me...If he hurts you in any way...physically or emotionally...You'll come straight to me, no matter what I'm doing, pull me away if you have to, and tell me what he did.. I'm sorry for the way I've treated you recently...I'm really messed up huh? Since I treat my oldest...and best friend like shit...I hope you'll forgive me someday..." He looked down with pain and sadness in his eyes, I held his cheek and he looked up a bit shocked and curious. "Knowing that you realized how much you hurt me...That's a big step...And I'm glad you did...You're still my best friend...that will never change Wolfy...I hoped one day you'd come back to me...I've waited to long for this" I smiled softly and he brought me over to a blanket that was next to his fire pit, and sat me down. "Wait here Midnight, I'll be right back" I nodded and he ran inside.

     As I sat there I realized he  had been gone for awhile and I became worried and a bit sad, I finally stood up to leave. "S-sorry I took so long Midnight...I forgot where I put what I wanted to get..." I smiled and sat back down. "You know it's almost one in the morning, right? He laughed. "What are you tired? When we were little I couldn't get you to sleep no matter how hard I tried. But I still remember those where you snuck in...Whenever there's  thunder and lightning, you'd freak out and run over to my house, sneak in through the backyard, and climb up to my window and knock...I finally stayed awake for those  nights waiting for you to sneak in, and you always did, and to say the truth...I'm still that way...I stay near my window during storms...hoping you'd sneak in..." He smiled sadly. "Y-you still stay awake during storms...For me?! And it hasn't changed, I'm still terrified of thunder and lightning...and I actually have tried to sneak back here...But two things keep me from going...The increasing fear of the storm...and..." He sighed and pulled me so close to him, I was almost laying on his chest. I put my head against his chest and listened to his heartbeat, which was always the way he would be able to clam me down. Suddenly I felt his warm breath on my head, and felt him kiss my head, I blushed more than I already was, a small part of me wanted to leave, but more of me wanted to stay and have him hold me longer. He leaned back on a log that had been covered in pillows and still had me close to him, I felt his heart slow down and his breathing lighten. "Grey? O-oh he's asleep, I should probably go..." I tried to get up and leave but he tightend his hold on me and he began shaking like he was scared. "N-no...D-don't go Midnight...Please...I love you" He said sounding like he was terrified of me leaving. "Wolfy...I have to go home...I'll save you a dance tomorrow night, okay? Please go inside and get some sleep." He nodded and got up along with me, I start to turn away but I get quickly turned back around and get kissed passionately on the lips. My eyes were wide with shock, I felt myself wanting to go in my instinctive side and kisses him back, my body wanted more, but managed to back away, He looked up at me, his eyes had turned from a beautiful crystal blue, to a bright golden yellow. I back away and ran home.
