Present day:
I still had my thoughts about Claire, even though Tharzius had "taken care of things" I wasn't ready to believe this was over yet. Finally doing the homework I had put off for ages, there was some peace and quiet in the room. parker was also doing her homework, she was tapping her foot and running her hands through her hair, she had something to say, it was just a matter of when the volcano will erupt.

"Connor is asking questions!" She bursts. I turned towards her, eyes peeled, "what type of questions".
"The pool at the lodge" Parker collected her homework and shoved it in her bag. I knew this was going to happen, my excuse wasn't good enough. Luckily I knew someone who could convince him other wise"Hold on" I told Parker as i pulled out my phone.

"Wasnt expecting this call so soon, cant resist" Justin douchepilling out onto the floors. " I need a favor, Connor has become trouble" I said. "Watch your time of voice scar you sounded like you wanted to kill this guy" justin answered. I put the phone on speaker so a worrisome Parker could hear. " I mean if that's what had to be done" I started. "SCARLET" Parker gasped in the middle of the room. " scar...." Justin said, " he's Parker's boyfriend remember". "And I'm her best friend, remember?" I repeated. "Scarlet. Seriously stop" Parker went to grab the phone but I pushed her away. "Sit down" I told her sternly. "Scar... your scaring me" she said while taking a seat. " he's you friend Justin just do what you can" I ran my fingers through my hair. There were two bumps at the top of my head. " I'll.. see what I can do" Justin was quick to hang up.

"Scarlet you sound like a physcopath"Parker got up from her chair and made her way to the dorm door. I think I should of felt bad because I was harsh, but I didn't. I should have went to apologize, but I didn't. I ran my fingers through my hair again and felt the two bumps again. I grabbed my phone and took a picture of my head, it started to ache. I looked at my phone a saw the scaly bumps on my head. I automatically knew what they were. I had seen that same shape and design in my dreams. These were horns.

Knock knock. Parker waited impatiently at Justin's door. " I was about to find you" justin motioned her into his room. Parker examiner the room, pretty blank but some beautiful art on the closet door. She wanted to ask about it, but there was an important matter at hand. "We both love scarlet" Parker paced, "and that's how I know you'll help me. She's CRAZY". "I don't need a phone call to know that. But I know what you mean. Although the scarlet I know is strong minded, she wouldn't kill people" justin explained. "That stupid tea" Parker said, "we have to ask mr Cheng about this". "No, this is our problem. I don't trust mr Cheng anymore. How could he have known about the potions?" Justin implied. Parker nodded her head. Justin was charming and opened his arms up to her, her cheeks started to turn red.

Parker took out her phone and gave a text message. She put her phone away and laid her eyes on Justin. She couldn't, his eyes were exactly as I explained. As I explained. She knew he loved me and I liked him back, even as I resented the fact. But his... nose, she loved his nose. That she could call hers. That's what made it ok in her mind."I have an idea. I broke up with Connor" Parker spoke. Justin was surprised, "whaaa, why". "Because I think we should date" Parker was getting into dangerous ground, " not because we like each other. If I'm right, if scarlet get jealous it returns her love for you and reverses the effects of the tea". Justin was hesitant, and the room was silent for a while. "I know you like me" justin admitted. "Maybe, but not now, now I care about my best friend" Parker said. Today was her day. She got the guy and her best friend back... we'll, maybe her best friend back.
