Her Dark Mind

Chapter VII

The incessant beeping of my alarm blurs through my ears as I let out a groan of frustration.

Soft light was beaming through my shear curtains as I blink a few times, attempting to open my eyes. I glance to my right looking at my alarm clock as it read 5:30 am, I reach across and whack the top to stop the dreadful noise. I turn my head back to the ceiling and listen to the birds outside my window sing their peaceful morning songs.

I realise that I still have to get up as today was the first day of school. Sitting up, a slight pain pounds through my head, drinking some water I try soothing the small morning headache. I slip out of bed and head towards my closet which already has three sets of uniform which consists of a white blouse, a formal jacket, a skirt and stockings.

Our sportswear was very different to other schools as this is specifically a werewolf school and the sports consists of very heavy training. So our sportswear is anything we feel comfortable in to use for sport, the school chose for me which is clothing I wish to not wear as it's way too revealing for my taste.

I dash into my bathroom and take a quick, cool shower to wake myself up. When I finish I hop out of the shower and wrap the towel loosely around my body as I roughly dry my hair with a separate towel. Without brushing my hair I slip the towel off and dry my legs.

I walk out of the bathroom with my uniform on and slip my shoes on that were also put in my room. The uniform isn't as dreadful as I thought, it's kind of cute.

I walk out my bedroom and into the kitchen noticing that it's only 6:00 am and classes start at 7:30 am, we start earlier than most schools as we have a two hour sports session at the end of each day. Our normal classes are split into year groups, but our sport classes is when every class joins together, going through collective heavy training.

I noticed that the guys weren't up yet so I made myself breakfast which is my favourite, a classic English breakfast with a cup of hot tea, I've tried to like coffee but it's just not for me. I decided to also make some for the guys as they've been rather welcoming.

When I finish up cooking breakfast I hear a loud thump which startles me. Following that First thump was a second, I heard shuffling around and then two doors slamming followed by heavy footsteps running into the main room from down the hall.

I glance up from where I'm sat to see two guys in a fighting stance with confused facial expressions.

"Morning" as soon as I spoke they whipped their heads in my direction, I'm surprised they didn't come clean off. Their facial expressions kept morphing from surprised and confused to relaxed.

I let out a small chuckle as they obviously forgot I live with them now, things might just be that bit more interesting living with them.

"Hey Jamilah" Travis replied as he shuffled his way into the kitchen and I watch as he reaches up to grab a mug out from a cupboard above the coffee machine. Trevor went and grabbed a mug out as well, finally looking down towards the two plates of food.

-----Trevor P.O.V-----

After greeting Jamilah, a little shocked to see her up so early, Travis and I walk into the kitchen to make coffee for ourselves. As I was preparing the coffee I smelt something that made my mouth water uncontrollably, I could smell bacon, eggs, toast, all the good stuff.

Lifting my head I glance towards the smell, my eyes lock on the two full plates of food on the bench to my right. I look at Travis to see if he's seen it and just as I look at him he looks along the bench towards the food. We then both look up at Jamilah, a smile tugs at the corner of my mouth as I look at her confused expression.

"What? is there food on my face?" she questions while rubbing her mouth.

"No. No, don't worry there's nothing. Did you make the food?" Travis replied reassuring her that there's nothing there.

"Nuh, Casper the ghost did" Jamilah said looking at him like he's stupid, I mean it was a dumb question. I chuckled looking back at Travis and as I did he sent a slight whack to the back of my head which made Jamilah and I both start laughing.

"I thought I may as well make you guys a little something while I did myself breakfast" Jamilah explained after calming down, her smile is extremely contagious, with the ability to light up an entire room.

"Thank you, Jamilah, we haven't eaten anything 'cooked' for breakfast in so long, we usually just have cereal or fruit" I said sending a smile her way.

"Yeah, thanks Jamilah" Travis echoed.

She just sent a smile back while mumbling "this won't be happening all the time" making us laugh once again.

-----Jamilah P.O.V-----

After eating breakfast with the guys I got up to rinse my plate and mug, setting them down on the sink. I walk back down the hall and head inside my bedroom to brush my teeth and do my hair.

As I tie my hair up in a ponytail, I look at myself in the mirror, when I finish I realise how much lighter I seem, I'm relaxed and I don't feel trapped anymore. I know I haven't been here long, but I already feel more alive.

I grab my school bag as I exit my room and walk into the living room where Travis and Trevor are waiting. They both smile at me and I grin back as we all walk out of the dorm room. As we close and lock the dorm we're greeted by a few other groups of students leaving their rooms.

This was it, my life was going to change for the better and I wasn't going to just let people walk all over me anymore. Not when I can start fresh and put up a strong front, I won't let myself get hurt anymore. No one needs to know about my past anyway, they don't need a reason to have something against me. To use me.

No one needs to know.
