Hi guys! I'm so sorry this is so late, I went on my spring break and my schoolwork has been taking up more and more of my time. I hope you can all understand. Also, I might not be able to post every week anymore but I will keep posting I promise! (once you read this you will understand) I really am evil. Have fun reading this chapter! Thanks to all my readers! Please like and comment. Also thanks to AnnabethChase and LeviosaHairline101. They have both been following my story from the start. You are both awesome! Please read LeviosaHairline101's story; The Red Diner and read AnnabethChase's story; A Lost Demigod. They are both really good stories and I think you will like them. And, I'm really sorry that this is so short and that my author's note is so long. But when you reach the end of this chapter I think you will understand, I had to end it there.
I walk from class to class with Lark following me and talking constantly. Ethics, Science, English, Maths, and more. All my classes are wonderful and I'm learning more than I ever have before. In each class, I'm always introduced as "our new student, Willow."
After all of our classes are done Lark and I go to dinner. Lamb stew with onions, the best food I've eaten since the great depression started. Once I'm stuffed like a pig, Lark walks with me back up to our dorm, I fall onto my bed, filled with feathers and the best bed I have ever slept on. I pull the covers over me and fall asleep immediately.
I wake up ready for another day of learning, I sit up and look around. I don't see my glamorous dorm or Lark's sleeping form. I'm in the inside of a house, my house. I'm sleeping on a tiny mattress with sawyer sleeping next to me. Tears brim my brown eyes when I realize, it was a dream. My classes my school, everything good that has happened to me in the past day, was a dream.
