Strange Things

It's been a couple of days since Austin and me had the talk. Ever since then Austin has been avoiding me like the plage, I saw him in the engineering building yesterday and he practically jumped at the sight of me, he bloody ran for the life of him out of the building. Am I really that ugly?

After the talk I went to my room where I found Meg sprawled out on her bed half dead. I was so tempted to push her off, but being the nice person I am I didn't. I sat up all night reseaching Hybrids and what the hell they were. When Austin was talking to me I hadn't a single clue what a hybrid was so I just simply nodded and made a deal that I had no clue what was about just not to tell anyone about him.

I found out that Hybrids are mythical creatures like seriously what who would have guessed that? Not me .......... Really google I am not that stupid I do know that one thing which I think is only I do know about them. Hybrids have been wanted creatures for many years and that there have been some sightings. That night I casually looked through all the sightings on hybrids in Alabama and I cam across one photo that took my interested. In the picture it was night time ,  the sky was as black as a blanket and it looked like it was taken in the forest but what got my attention was a boy in the middle of the picture transforming. I zoomed in a lot more and soon realise the picture looked awfully like someone I knew. I looked closer the boy had blonde hair, muscular body and big brown eyes that was looking at the camera as well as a well known smirk I knew very well. 

Why the hell was Austin bloody transforming right in front of the camera and smirking at it. Bloody hell Austin why don't you transform when your on the football field if you want to make yourself obvious. I printed off the picture on Friday. All over the weekend I have been trying to find Austin and get to talk to him but he is no where to been seen. Its literally like he disappeared off the planet or maybe he is just  doing the Sherlock Holmes trick and just letting people think he is dead for a couple of months then appear again but then again he seems to think I am Sherlock Holmes.

Today is Tuesday and I am determined to find Austin bloody Cole and talk to him, the picture is safely secured in my back pocket. As I walk across campus to class, I put my headphones in and begin playing "Dont " by Ed Sheeran. 

"Dont with my love that heart is so cold" I begin belting out the chorus and when I open my eyes everyone is watching. Great maybe I should start dancing put on a wee show for them!. When I glance around there in the crowd smirking at me is the one and only Austin Cole. I give him my best death glare eyes then start charging at him at full force. 

"Austin Cole come here this minute" I shout waving my hands in the air like a nutcase.  He begins to slow back away from me. From behind I   probably look like a penguin waddling but in my head I look like a true athlete.

When I reach Austin I all but pounce on him and tackle him to the ground. Maybe I should thrown a football at his head and that would have taken him down cause it sure sent me down.  

"Austin what the hell I have been looking for you all weekend, where had you been ?" I ask practically wheezing it out.

"Sam please get off me your killing me I can't breathe" Austin shouts in my face.

"Oh okay you calling me fat now great way of fishing out the compliments keep them coming" I say jumping straight off him.

"I didn't mean it like that Sam you were sitting on my lungs" Austin says giving me a apologetic look.

"Fine anyway I need to talk to now" I anounce pulling him somewhere quiet cause by the seems of it everyone has now directed their attention straight to us.

"Sam I have told you all you need to know now leave me alone, I am not putting you in danger" Austin says through gritted teeth and then begins to walk off when his phone starts to ring.

"I'm a barbie girl in a barbie world, life is plastic it's fantastic" Austin frumbles to get his phone out  of his pocket as fast as he can. He gives me a shut up look and declines the call.

"I hate Izzy so much right now" Austin says angrily.

I burst out laughing, I hold my side as it is hurting from laughing so much and say

"Omg I can't breath, why the hell do you have Barbie girl as your ringtone, is there something your not telling me Austin?" and once again I burst out laughing.

"I am never letting Izzy have my phone again"

After I have calmed down, I take the picture out and by this time everyone has cleared off to class. 

"What is that?"Austin asks me.

"Well I was hoping you could tell me the answer to that" I say lifting my eyebrow.

"Why would you think I knew what that was?" 

"Well your on the bloody picture Austin" I say

"What, let me see" he snatches the picture off me and examines it.

"This isn't me Sam" Austin looks up at me and gives me the picture back.

"Who is it then" 

"Thats my brother Jake, he is working with Knox Hale and he is trying to kill me as well"

"Wait Austin you have a broth.." I don't get to finish my sentence as someone interupts me.

"Austin what the absolutely hell do you think you are doing?" 

"Dad what the hell are you doing here?" Austin asks. This spikes my attention and when I look up I never expected it to be who it was.

There in front of me stood my teacher who taught nursing , Mr Cole. How did I not notice.

Mr Cole is Austins Dad and he wants to kill me.

Great way to meet the parents!

I am just so happy right now I could break into a dance.
