I want to thank @readersnotfiha for the book cover. 

I opened my eyes yawning. I found myself laying on my couch. There was a blanket covering my body. I don't remember grabbing a blanket. I tried collecting my memories but remembered nothing. I shrugged it off believing I was too tired last night to remember. I threw the blanket off and got up. I grabbed my glasses and put them on. I needed to get ready for school. I looked at the time and saw it was only 7 o'clock. I started school at 9:30. I decided to make some food.

I walked to the kitchen and started making pancakes. I started mixing the ingredients while humming to myself. I poured the batter into the pan. Overall I had a pretty small kitchen but it wasn't bad. The walls were colored a cream color and the counters were the same. There was a small table, fit for a family of four. It wasn't that bad but I always felt lonely here.

I flipped the pancake waiting for the other side to cook. I went to the fridge which was fairly empty and grabbed some maple syrup and butter. I put it on the table and walked back to the pan. I put the pancake on a plate and walked to the table. I put the butter and syrup on and walked to the living room. I sat down where I had just slept and turned on the television.

"Breaking news: Another girl has just been found dead in an alleyway. Police say she was stabbed repeatedly with a knife. The girl has yet to be identified we will wait until further notice."

I grabbed the remote switching the channel. How could someone be so cruel to ruin another person's life? It was sickening, this has been the fourth girl this month. I started eating my pancake while watching random kid shows. Yes, I was still a child inside. I finished my pancakes and looked at the time. It was already 8:00.

I took that as my cue to get ready. I got up and put my plate in the sink and walked to my room. It was next to the kitchen. I walked into my room and grabbed my clothes out of my small closet. I walked to my bathroom and undressed. I turned the water on and jumped in the shower. The hot water taking away my tension. I quickly washed my hair with vanilla smelling shampoo and conditioner. I then washed my body with the vanilla smelling body wash.

When I was finished I jumped out of the shower and dried myself. I changed into a pair of black skinny jeans and a blue tee-shirt that had the harry potter house on it, mine was a Ravenclaw. I know I was a nerd but I loved Harry Potter movies and books. I didn't need a jacket as it was hot here.

I dried my hair and started straightening it. After I was finished with that I ran to get my phone. I turned it on looking at the time. It was 9:15. Shit. I put my phone in my pocket putting my shoes on and looking for my earphones and keys. When I found them I ran out the door locking it behind me. I walked down the hall to the elevator.

I got in and pressed the button to the bottom floor. I let out a sigh. When the elevator doors opened I walked out of the apartment building heading to the campus. I suddenly got chills, when I felt eyes watching me. Why do I have to be so paranoid? I walked on the sidewalk, with the sun beating down on me. I could see the campus in the distance, luckily I didn't live far from school.

I walked faster passing the book store. I arrived at the campus. The campus had green grass covering the area with tall trees around the whole campus. The college was made of red brick and was very big. Some people were outside, some were sitting on the grass. The trees provided shade for those who sat under it. It was very beautiful and I was glad I got into this college.

I walked past the people and inside the building. I looked around when I spotted my friends dirty blond hair. She looked towards me smiling. I waved towards her as she made her way towards me. "Hey Violet," she said.

"Hi Alex, anything new," I said. We started walking to our class while talking.

"Not much, so anything new with you," she asked.

"Same as always, feeling as though someone is watching me," I let out a laugh. I didn't know what I said was true.

Alex let out a laugh, "Who would watch you, you do the most boring things in your free time,"

"Hey, reading is not boring okay. It is an amazing experience, it feels like your in the story," I started rambling.

"Alright, alright, now get to your class, I'll see you," Alex said while walking away from me.

"Alright, see you." I walked in the other direction to my class.

The class was dismissed and I packed all my things up walking towards the door. I walked out of the school standing by a tree. The smell of freshly cut grass filled my senses. I stood there for a while admiring the scenery.

Alex wouldn't be out until another hour. I stepped away from the tree and decided to get something to eat while I was waiting. I walked out of the campus and onto the street. I walked down the street when I got the feeling again.

What is it this time? Why do I always get this feeling? Just then I was knocked out of my thoughts when I felt someone bump into me. I turned around just to see the boy's face. He had black hair with brown eyes. He threw his hood on and continued walking.

Why does he look familiar?
