I was back at school within a couple of days, the bad thing about having no friends is that no one really notices your away and you have to ask the teachers for the work instead of stealing your friends notes.

I got out of the car and walked through the parking lot, I hadn't really noticed the groups that milled around before class. The worst part was that I wasn't apart of any of them. I swung my bag over my shoulder and walked straight past all the students and headed to my locker.

I open my locker and collect the books that I need for the day ahead. I hear hush tones coming from along the hallway I look over and notice Alec talking very quietly to a person half his size. Just as I was about to look away he looks up and locks his eyes with mine.

"Fuck" I whisper under my breath

I turn on my heel and walk the other way, as I ponder on the scene that just occurred beforehand I don't notice my surroundings until I walk into something, all the books that I had been carrying fell and spilled all over the hallway floor.

"I am so terribly sorry, I wasn't paying attention"

I look up and see that it was a very handsome man, he was wearing and checkered shirt and blue jeans, I remember seeing him hang around with Alec.

"No it's okay my fault, I ran into you" I reply

"Well my name is Osca" he said

"Nice to meet you Osca I'm Kaylah" I replied in almost a whisper. I hate talking to people that I'm not familiar to me.
*******
The day dragged on, nothing exciting happened, I didn't see Alec after the incident that had occurred this morning which I guess was normal as nobody seemed to care that he wasn't in any of his lessons.

I look around to find Jordan because he was my ride but I can't seem to find him, he keeps disappearing which is odd.

"Hey need a ride?" I turn around and notice Jax the guy I had met previously sitting in his car window rolled down.

"Umm.." I wasn't sure if I should accept the ride I don't know anything about him!

I finally concede after weighing my options of walking four miles home or accepting the ride. I choose the latter option. The conversation mainly consists of small talk and the occasional right - left directions until we reach my house.

"Woah, your house is massive, what are you like rich??" Jax asks

"Not really, my mother is a doctor and my father isn't really in the picture" I answer as I hop out of the car slamming the door.

Osca leaves after I walk through the front door. Knowing no one is home I call out to my mum and brother in case I'm wrong

"Jordan, Mum, is anyone HOME" I call

Fortunately I was right. Quickly getting out of my clothes and changing into my sweats and oversized hoodie.

I walk over to the oven, the cookies I baked were almost done. I loved baking it was something that I could distract myself with, plus I was good at it.

I pulled the cookies out of the oven and placed them on the counter, the sweet smell of sugar cookies wafting in the air.

"It smells delicious"
I turned around at the voice and notice my mother, her eyes tired, her clothes disheveled.
"Mummy" I run into her arms and we held the embrace for a while, I missed my mother, ever since we arrived here she has been absent, she is a busy women but I wish she could make more time for her family. Breaking out of the hug, I walked back around the island and continue fixing the cookies, she sits down at the island and sighs.
"How is school? Make any friends?" My mother asks
"Schools good, class is easy, I'm better at quadratic equations then social interactions" I confess.
"It's okay, I'm sure you will find someone, who wouldn't like you?" she gets up and with one last hug leaves the kitchen, probably wanting to get out of her clothes and have a nice shower. Who wouldn't! Saving lives would be a difficult job.

I leave the cookies to cool and walk into the lounge room, as I am about to sit down I hear a knock at the door.
"Seriously, I just sat down" I say angrily
I pull open the door
"What!?" I yell
"Alec?" I whisper, he was slumped against the door frame, he was pale and his hand was clamped around his stomach, blood seeping through his fingers. I help him inside and pull him gently onto the couch.

"Kay" he coughed out

"Mum!" I scream "Mum"
She comes running into the room, panic in her eyes, she sees Alec on the couch and runs over the rest is a blur, I vaguely remember calling Tigerlily and her coming to collect Alec and take him home, I also remember the pang of jealously in my stomach. That all faded as my head hit my pillow anxious of what is going to happen tomorrow, the start of  another day.
