I laughed lightly, taking out my pencil and getting ready to write. An arm suddenly slipped around my shoulders making me jump and let out a shriek.

"Girl relax, it's only me." June flicked my forehead, acting normal.

Which didn't match up with what had happened.

"June." I mumbled her name, she clearly could tell that I was going to discuss earlier.

"No." She frowned fiercely at me, her eyes flashing with warning. "I want you to forget all that happened, understand the fact that me and Brandon are not on the best if terms."

I solemnly nodded, my gaze dropping in fear. June had a serious, strict tone of voice, it was frightening.

But June didn't stop. "He wronged me, and for that I hate him...and he's...he's not the person you would think he is. You know that very well now." June looked away and leaned against her desk behind me. "And when he kissed you...that should have been a clue."
She had to bring that up? In any case, she said something that perked my interest.

"A clue?"

June bit her lip, looking around worriedly before shaking her head. "I'm sorry." Her lips tightened to a straight line and she sat at her desk.

I picked up that she'd say no more, that agitated me, but I felt like if I had time to connect the revealed dots I'd understand.

A hand patted my head to gain my attention, and I curiously looked up. Julian now stood beside me with a small comforting smile.

Or what I assumed was one, maybe I imagined it to be comforting because that was what I wanted it to be?

He rested his hand on my hair, his eyes flickered with many emotions. I feel like he wished he could say something. But sadly he couldn't.

"Hey Julian, it's nice to see someone sane." I joked with a weary grin.
Julian frowned slightly, like he disagreed.

"Oh sorry, that was kinda rude, oops." I apologized quickly. Julian was cool, I liked him-not like crush or anything! But as a chill friend you could vent to.

He shrugged and slid his hand to my cheek, a nervous bubble appeared in my stomach. Julian stared at me for a moment before silently sighing and leaving for his seat beside June.

I pursed my lips, my face warming up. I told myself to chill. That it was only Julian, and he was only a chill friend. My eyes shot to the clock, and with a minute to spare Brandon marched into the room.

The tense feeling from June burned my back from it's intensity. It was enough to make me stiffen cautiously.

"Hello Nina dear~!"

My heart stopped. That voice. They way 'dear' was said. There was no mistaking it. The voice, the personality, the clues were all there. I knew now. It was so obvious that I wanted to slap myself. Honestly, how stupid could I be?

Brandon...

"Nina? Is something wrong?" He sat beside me and had a look of concern. It sickened me to see that, seeing him made me sick in general.

"No, nothing is wrong at all, Watcher."

"Well alright, if you say so." He hummed casually, facing front. Then a look of horror took over his face.

Bingo.

"Wait-!"

I turned to him, trying desperately to keep my cool. "I should have known! You're disgusting! A creep! Why the heck have you done this to me!? You've made my life so terrible! Why!?" I scowled and clenched my fists, hissing at him, trying to keep my voice down.

"Nina! No-!" Brandon looked at me pleasingly, looking like a trapped animal. "I'm not him! I know him, but I swear on my face that I'm not Watcher!"

"Likely story you...you freak!" I was seething, honestly, how dumb did he think I was!?

That's when I recalled something. Watcher knew I eventually figured things out, he knew I was smart. So to obviously lie to me would be against what he perceived of me.

Hesitantly, I softened my features. "Are you...you are trying to trick me, right?"

Brandon shook his head wildly, "No! Nina I swear I'm innocent!"

I bit my lip and a soft laughing sound from behind made both me and Brandon turn around.

June looked beyond shocked, my jaw dropped as my eyes widened, and Brandon's face contorted into a tense expression.

Julian-

Julian was laughing.
