I sat in detention feeling beyond bored as I fiddled with my hair and silently chewed on my gum. They'd tell me to spit it out if they saw me chewing. I was going to be sitting in this class for an hour max so I began doing my maths homework. Well, at least I won't have work when I get home. I thought silently as I looked out the window.

I tended to always stare at the cherry blossom tree in the middle of the field. It was on a raised patch of grass that reminded me so much of a rabbit hole but I haven't seen any rabbits around here so it was odd that there'd be a rabbit hole there. I went back to focusing on my work as I heard the clock ticking. It oddly enough, seemed to be ticking louder than usual. I could hear each tick as I wrote in silence and I could hear my pencil as I engraved my hand writing onto the page.

I filled in all my answers and was about to put my pencil back into my pencil bag when I heard a voice. "Be careful Alice." I swear, I could hear it saying but I was probably imagining it. It was probably just me daydreaming. I'd been lacking sleep a lot lately. Always waking up in the middle of the night to cold sweats and having the same dream on repeat constantly. Have I forgotten how to dream? How can you live a happy life if all you have is the same nightmare on repeat?

I wasn't afraid of the dream. I'd just always wake up in fright because I couldn't tell if it was real or not but once I take in my surroundings I realise it was just my mind hallucinating and it was nothing but a nightmare. Perhaps, it was a sign? But what would I know. I packed my pencil bag away and when I had finished packing my bag, I checked the clock.

The teacher, Ms Something. I don't know her name because she never taught any of my classes, was busy reading a book. She pushed her glasses up the bridge of her nose as they slipped down. It looked as though she was reading a romance novel. She looked up when I placed my bag on the desk. It seemed as though an hour had passed and I waited for her to say if I could leave.

She turned her head to look at the clock. After she had scanned it for what seemed like a few minutes, she nodded for me to go and I nod back as I grabbed my backpack and left for the classroom's exit. I walked through the passage and down a couple of stairs. I passed the janitor's closet and then just as I was about to make my way to the exit doors of the building, with my bag still slumped over my shoulder, I saw a peculiar sight. I saw a bunny man?

Was the school having a fundraiser again? A circus theme perhaps?
