I flip over on my bed and cover my face with blanket.

"Oh shut up, stupid alarm"
My cat called Fluff then comes and sits on my lap, I pat her back while checking on my social media.

It's your first day of school. All the best !
It's a message from Cooper , the leader of gang. He says if I find my parents killer, I will be the next leader.
I then step out of my bed only to be tripped on a pizza box.
"Ouch, evil pizza box "
I then go to the bathroom to take a bath and open my closet. I realize that I need to update my wardrobe because everything I have is black . If I wear black to school everyday, people might find me suspicious.

So for today I throw on my black jeans with a black hoody on it. I then allow my chocolate brown curls come out of the hoodie . I then rush to the kitchen, grab a energy bar and my motor bike keys. I wear my helmet and drive to Starbucks .
"Aaah coffee makes me happy ."
I then reach to Queen high school to be greeted by crowds of kids in the hallway. Then I hear I girl shouting
"Crystal Stone , Crystal Stone where are you ?!"
"Hey its me."

"Finally, welcome to Queen high. My name is Annalise Copper but you can call me Anna. I've been appointed my the principal to help you. So here are your locker keys and timetable."

"Thanks ! My name is Crystal , well you already know."

"So friends ?"

"Sure"

" but let me be honest are you in a gang or what"

" no of course not " Lie

"Oh ok but dress properly from tomorrow"

"Yeah , anyways let's head to class which is English, so are you with me ?."

She removes her timetable from her bag" nope I have Chemistry, I will see you in maths class. Bye "

"Bye Anna !"
I head towards English class and sit at the second last bench.

"Hey newbie, whats your name ?" I hear a boy yell from the last behind me.

"Hi Oldbie , my name's Crystal." I reply with sass.

"My name is Jason Williams. One of the popular guys after Jackson and Jake." He says with a flirtatious smile.

"Oh cool." That's when Mr roberts out English sir enters.

"Good morning class" he looks towards me and says " would you like to introduce yourself hoodie girl, in five words."
I roll my eyes what a ass.

I stand up in my place and speak"my name is Crystal Stone."

"Good now don't waste my time and turn to pg 62"

"Wow I Dont like this fat person with a moustache whose teaching me." I whisper to Jason behind me. He starts chuckling.
"The feelings mutual,babe."

"Look Anna I'm not going to any party this weekend, I have to rest in peace in my bedroom."

"But please , it's just a party for one day and it's gonna be fun besides don't you wanna know other people in this school" she says while digging in her salad during lunch.

Maybe I should go cause I get to know people or even the killer and second I can't resist her puppy dog eyes. I sigh
"Fine, but you're gonna pick me for the party"

"Yay ok thank you" she says while killing me to death with her hug.

Then Jason walks up to our table
" Hey Crystal and Anna , wanna join on our table, I will introduce you to my friends."

"Umm ok "

"Hey what are you doing . They are not good people specially the boys they are players." Anna whispers to me.

I just take Anna with me towards the table and sit down.

"Whose this Jason, is this your chick make sure to share her with me , she's hot"

"Excuse me, Im not some body to play with . Have some respect" I say angrily looking at boy seated in front of me who I presume is Jackson.

"Oo I should call you red head, you definitely have some anger in your pretty little head ". Jake said with a mischievous smirk plastered on his face.

Woah they are total freaks. Stay cool Faith. After all you're here to find your parents killer. Don't be deceived by the green eyed handsome monster Jake Hammer . Oh wait he's not handsome, get a grip Faith.

"Earth to Crystal!" Jason says while snapping his fingers in front of me.

" Oh sorry ".
" anyways as I was saying I'm keeping a party at my house. So you all are invited"

Anna rolls her eyes." We all would've come even if you wouldn't invite us dumbhead."

Jake slides his hands in his black hair." We have this maths exam coming up. And I don't wanna fail and get eaten up Mr Thomson so who's up for tutoring me in maths today."

"Not me "

" I need help my self ."

" I'm tutoring Jackson."

And then all eyes stare at me while I'm popping the delicious noodles in my mouth.

"What?, stop staring at me."

Jake smirks" so you're tutoring me today.! That's final."

"What no , I've got loads of work to do at home not me ". The reason I was saying this was because I don't want anyone getting close to my personal life , I'm scared I might spill my secrets to someone. And specially Jake no no.

" but you have no choice , you have to teach me , please."

"Nope" I said popping the p and get up from the table to end the topic.

" Please what are friends for. I swear I won't trouble you I just wanna pass the stupid maths test."

"Fine at 7. I will text you the address give me your number." I instantly regretted the decision.

" ok bye Anna see you tomorrow." I said while removing my helmet from my bike.

"So you drive a bike."
Jake ask while leaning on his car and blowing the smoke of his cigarette on my face.
"Ya,so?"

He raises his eyebrow " pretty Badass right."

I just roll my eyes in response.
