After working on our group work I would tell me and Fan have become good friends, I have noticed she gets a little bit too close and tends to touch me a lot, so she may like me differently but I can't forget the person I love. She also has a really dark sense of humor, a little too dark in my opinion. I also offered to walk home with her since she doesn't have too many friends. The school bell rang at the end of my last class and I made my way towards my locker, and I saw Fan waiting there for me.

"Hi!" She cheered

"How did you know where my locker was" I asked

"well........I may or may not stalk you from time to time" Fan replied

"Okay, that's not creepy whatsoever" I said sarcastically

"I'm just messing with you" Fan laughed

"Well, I just need to get my stuff and......"

"I already got them here" She cheered, handing me my stuff

I felt a chill go down my spine, I don't know why I felt like I was in danger.

"How did you get in my locker" I asked, carefully

"I already told you silly" Fan laughed

"Oh, right" I said

"Hey Rick!" I heard someone call

I turn around and see Jessica running up to me.

"Who's this bimbo" Fan mumbled

"What was that" I asked

"Oh......n...nothing" Fan said

"Oh, is this the person you were working with" Jessica asked

"Yeah, I offered to walk her home" I said

"Oh alright, I was here to say that Josh wants to see you today" Jessica said

Right, today was therapy. Josh was a grade ahead of me yet he somehow got a bachelor's degree.

"Who's Josh?" Fan asked

"Friend of mine, he is also my therapist" I replied

"Oh" She said, sounding disappointed.

I thought I saw some of the colors in her eyes drain out, and become more dull and bland.

"Well, I'll see you later Jessica" I said

"Alright, see ya" Jessica replied

"Shall we get going?" I asked

Fan's eyes lit up again and she smiled,

"Yeah of course" Fan cheered

We walked down the hallway and out the front doors of the school, Fan got a bit ahead of me so I assumed to be following her. Since I have no idea where she lives. To be honest she looks really familiar. I think I may have seen her back in 8th grade, she definitely changed over the year.

"My house is just a couple of blocks from here" Fan said

"Alright" I replied

We continued the rest of our walk in silence
