Runaways

Chapter 3

I shoot up, with sweat dripping down my face. The dream i just had was a flashback of my 13th birthday the day i became a witch.

I take a big gulp of air, after noticing i was breathing hard. I look beside me, only to find Ally gone. I get up, walking in the hall looking for her. I see her walking towards me with two plates of food in her hands. "Hey! You're awake! I brought you some food." She calls, getting closer to me.

I meet her half away, taking one of the plates from her hands. "Yeah, you scared me I didn't know where you where." I say, walking back to our seats. She sits next to me "Sorry, omg! I have to tell you what happened when I was getting food!" She suddenly exclaims. I cover my ears because she was really loud and I was still waking up from sleeping.

"I ran into these two boys named Jake and Alex, we talked for a bit and they said they ran away too! Isn't that cool oh and they're brothers. Jake is 13 and Alex is 14 like us! You're 14 like Alex and I'm 13 like Jake. We should go say hi and I can introduce you to them!" She says all in one breath.

I'm a little unsure about it, but she pulls me up anyway and we make our way to their seats. When we get there, they look up and smile at us. We smile back and I sit beside Alex and Ally sits besides Jake. "Hey Ally!" Jake says, looking at her. I see that his eyes are green and he has short light brown hair. "Hey, guys this is Lena the girl I was telling you about this morning." She says back.

Alex looks at me and I get lost in his deep blue eyes. We finally look away from each other from what feels like forever. "Hi" I say shyly, looking at the ground.

I may not seem shy but, I am sometimes. "Hi" Alex says, smiling at me. "Hi Lena!" Jake says, smiling again. It's like he's always smiling, shouldn't that hurt his face eventually? I look up finally, seeing Alex turned to the window. I turn to Jake and Ally starting a conversation with them. I feel a tingling in my hand and immedantly know what it is. I jump up, rushing to the nearest bathroom.

I sit on the floor, looking at my hands and arms. I feel power replacing the tingling. I stand up and look into the mirror, seeing my blue eyes changing to a dark blue. I lose my control on my power, letting it get in control taking over my body. I blast everything in the bathroom, hitting the sink making water soak me. The power slowly leaves my body and I sink to the floor, pulling my knees up to my chest hugging them.
