The rays of the sun had hit my eyes, making them flutter.

Where Am I?

I sat up on the bed, scanning my surroundings, trying to process on what happened last night.

So...i'm not dead yet. I chuckled in disappointment.

My brows furrow in confusion, How did I even got here?

More likely,

who person helped me out and brought me back to my household?

I shook of the thought out of my head, remembering that it is Monday and I have to prepare for the classes that were to come.

I sigh, getting up as soon as possible.
I don't know why but there's this feeling that I don't want to go to school today.

Strange....

I was never like that.

I'm more of a 'Always go to school and be an A+ student' type. I never wanted my grades to be down nor not going to school, unless if there's some necessary reasons that I should not go.

I wished I'm sick right now,

although not.

Once I was about to leave and wait for Normani to come, my mother called out my name.

I faced her, Yes mom?"

"Camila would be joining you today. Her ride had gotten sick, i'm also busy Ally." She stated, returning back to what she was doing.

"Alright." I said. I stopped at my tracks, remembering the thought of who brought me to this house.

"Mom." My eyes lingered to the floor, "Who brought me here last night?"

"You don't remember?" She chuckled, "You were so knocked out last night that you didn't remember L-" she got cut off by a honk outside.

I walked to the front door, "Later mom." closing it afterwards.

I get inside the silver Toyota car, greeting Normani, who greeted me back also. We both fall into a deep conversation about her weekend which I wish she wouldn't asked about mines, yet she did.

"So, girl." She started, "How was your weekend?"

My weekend?

Oh boy, it was a roller coaster.

That's the closest thing I could describe about it.

I sighed, slouching slightly. "A roller coaster." Tiredness was written all over my face.

She looked interested, more likely worried. "Why? what happened?"

I don't want to do story telling right now. I thought.

At the exact timing, Camila joined inside the car, sitting at the back. They greeted each other, asking their weekends yet only giving short replies. Normani started the ignition, making her drive to school. But, it didn't stop her on looking at me worriedly when there's a chance.

By the time we arrived at school, we parted ways. Mostly Camila but also Normani. We, Normani and I, don't have the same schedule though, there are days we did have the same classes.

I passed by the green galaxy eyed girl and the brunette that were getting close, or we say that there is a deep conversation between them. I myself, ignored the feeling that was forming,

Jealousy.

Which is not appropriate because she's not mine people, yet.

I don't even know if we broke up, she didn't say anything at all. Although, I could feel it is.

It's fine if Lauren dates other girls, just not that girl. As her dad would describe Lucy Vives, crazy. I'm actually worried for her. I wouldn't want her to date some- one that is like that. I'm even sure that the guy who'd almost kidnapped me was sent by her, considering the warning her father had given.

I sat down on my usual seat, getting the assigned textbook and a notebook for notes. Nevertheless, I didn't started writing down notes like I always do.

I'm very in my 'off' mood right now. I couldn't even give the happy vibe in the room like I do, which made people looked at me with curiosity. Y'all they are so used to me being jolly yet, here I am, being so quiet now.

Not only that fed up my weekend, the nightmares occured more frequently, jumping here and there at some days when I was asleep. I'm glad that while me and the raven haired girl were still in a relationship, I don't know as for now, it didn't came up. Well, at that time, it didn't showed up, only sometimes.

My thoughts were kicked out from my mind by a person calling me.

I looked up, seeing a blonde girl from my class looking at me intensily in her seat. "Yes..?"

"Can we change seats?" She pleaded, glancing the other seat which a person had already sat on.

But,

it wasn't any other person.

It was Lauren.

Ahh, so that's why. I chuckled.

Wait, shouldn't she be at the back? my chair being at the front?

I glance where she should be sitting, though, no ones there. By the side of her seat, there sat Lucy.

She changed seats? My own self quizzically asked.

I smiled at the blonde, "Sur-"

The green eyed girl interfered, "Sorry. She actually meant no." She smiled that had another meaning to it. My eyes lingered to the window and sighed.

What was that all about?

No, actually let's rephrase that.

What does that mean?
