---------------------------------------------------------
Aaron Brooks woke up with a start, covered in sweat and panting. It took him a while to realise that he was in bed, at home, safe. He sat up and ran his hands through his hair, trying to calm himself down, telling himself that it was just a dream. It had happened before, always the same dream,not even a scary one, but it terrified him.The truth is, Aaron had a secret, a secret that would ruin his life if people found out, one that would take away the reputation he had made for himself over all the years he'd been in school. What he had been through in the dream was enough to make him keep it to himself. He tried to put the thought of it out of his head, but that was never an easy thing to do.
He picked up his phone, which was laying on the dresser, and checked the time. 4:19. Great. He sighed, and then turned over to go back to sleep.
When he finally woke up the next morning, he had forgotten about the dream completely. He showered and then got dressed, and as he was putting on his jacket, he heard his Mom calling from downstairs.
"Honey, you'll be late!"
"Coming Mom" he said tonelessly.He came downstairs, and saw his Mom talking to his little sister, Hazel, who was complaining ( No surprise, Aaron thought) about not wanting to go to school so early, and talking about how kids should get more time at home. She stopped when she saw the blonde boy come through the kitchen however.
"Hey Azz" she said, smiling at him.
"Hey Hazel" replied Aaron, smiling back at her.He had always gotten on well with his sister, as she idolized him, and was supportive of everything he did.
Hazel was only eleven, a whole six years behind Aaron, and that meant Aaron was in charge or looking after her when they were alone together.He grabbed an apple from the fruit bowl on the table, kissed his Mom and sister goodbye, and left to begin his walk to school. He had to walk through the same forest everyday to get to his school, but he thoroughly enjoyed it, as it gave him a chance to listen to music, and look at the nature around him.
He came out of the woods to see one of his best friends, Dylan, waiting for him, leaning against a fence. They always walked to school together, and they'd been friends since they were little. Aaron grinned at him as he approached the fence, and Dylan responded by throwing a football he had at the other boy. Aaron laughed and threw it back, and they started walking up to the main school building together.
School was incredibly boring, as usual, and most of the day passed without anything happening.
Aaron was sitting in the changing room with his group of friends, for gym class, last period. They were waiting for the teacher to come in, and it was boring, however they passed the time by making jokes and playing stupid games with each other.
One of them,Blake, suddenly got up, and yelled across the room, addressing another boy, who was sitting with a small group of friends in the opposite corner. The boy was quiet and shy looking, wearing a light grey hoodie, with the hood pulled up. His messy brown hair came down over his face, covering most of his forehead, but leaving his bright blue eyes, which almost glowed compared to the dark color of everything else he was wearing.
At being called on, the boy looked up, and upon seeing who was talking to him, immediately looked down again.
Blake didn't seem to care though, as he shouted to the boy again, this time with a much meaner tone behind his voice.
