Lily stepped into the halls of her own high school and looked around at the people in the cafeteria and the people in the halls. The place hadn't changed but there was an unwelcoming air to the eyes that stared at her. Amusement filled her.

It didn't take long before Cindy Underman rushed up to her. The schools very own reporter and school know it all.

"So is it true your a witch? Do you cast spells on us? Did you sleep with the football team? Do you have clap? Is it true you have rabies? Are you really a superwoman? Care to comment? Is it true your Bestfriend cut all ties with you?"

Lily smirked before walking away from the nosy girl. She had all she needed to know.

"Check your sources before your believe what you hear."

Lily sat in class and waited for it to begin. She listened to the other conversations in the room.

"Did you hear? Sana's a cutter, and Gale is too!"

"Yeah, I guess a loser is always a loser."

"She tried to say a cat did it. Do you think it's just for the attention?"

"My dad has known their family forever and believe me, Sana is not abused in anyway. Have you looked at her? She's spoiled rotten!"

"So she lied? Then what does she tell the truth about?"

Lily smirked at this, and turned her head to the football players. "I have no clue what the fuck their talking about. I'd never sleep with that bitch. She's as frosty as an icee!"

"Sana and Gale are telling everyone that we've all done that chick, and I don't even know what she looks like!"

"Claire dumped me for cheating and I can tell you I haven't, yet."

"What do we do? I mean it's all bullshit, but it involves us all."

"Let the shit hit the fan, it's fun to watch." Lily told then with a cruel smirk.

Lunch pulled around and Lily sat alone watching her ex best friend try and seduce Owen. He got up and grabbed his tray, and sat down next to her. "I can't believe you left me there." he grumbled and Lily burst out laughing as Sana glared at her.

"Sana called dibbs on you." Lily shrugged.

"You know this whole thing is going to unravel soon right?"

"I'll bet in a month they'll both be at the bottom where they belong." Lily said, her anger fueling her words.

"Yeah." Owen looked at her and they both ate in silence. "Are you going to do anything to prove them wrong?"

"Nope. All these lies? It's all in their head and I don't fuckin care about any of it."

Lily put her phone on the table, sending Riven a quick text and turned back to eating. Owen scooped it and quickly typed on it and then his own phone vibrated in his pocket.

"Text me, we should hang." Lily smiled and shrugged.

The bell rang, and there were some disappointed faces getting up from the table Sana and Gale sat at. Their faces were pale, and hands shaking. Tell tale signs of an unraveling lie.

Lily sat in her last class, ignoring the questioning looks and whispers. "Poor girl, all alone like that."

Her phone vibrated in her pocket an she took it out, ignoring her teacher.

'We should hang tonite.'-Owen.

'Sure. My place. See you then.'

Lily glanced up at the teacher next to her with her hand held out. She smirked and slid the phone in her pocket.

"Phone, Lily."

"Nah, I'm good."

"Give me the phone, Lily."

"It's in my pocket."

"You know we have a no texting policy."

"Really? Since when?" the sarcasm just kept coming.

"You can have it back at the end of class."

"I'm good."

"If you don't want to give me the phone you can go to the office."

"I'm good." Lily rolled her eyes and faced the front, she looked into the expectant eyes of we classmates and groaned."Just teach me something."

"Disrespectful students get suspended." The teacher said right before she gathered Lily's things and sent her out the door.

Lily smirked at the teacher and lifted her middle finger in her face. Lily strode out the door with a smile on her face. Man I always wanted to do that!

"Again?" The secretary asked.

"Yep."

The bell rang, signaling school was out, and Lily left the office to go pack her bag.

"You didn't do any of it did you?" Lily glanced up from her locker.

"Who are you?"

This cute little blond with big blue eyes glanced up at her from under her bangs.

"Vera Global."

"Oh yeah, wow you grew up." Lily looked her over and fought back a wince. The girl looked painfully shy.

"You didn't do any of it, did you?"

"Nope. But I don't care." Lily grinned before she laughed.

"Sana is lying and so is Gale. I thought they were your best friends."

Lily's laugh died. Her humor dried up quickly. "Apparently not. Either way, I've got a bus to catch. See you around, Era."

"Yeah."

Lily stepped off the bus the same time Owen got out of his car. "I know what you are."

Lily smirked. "A bitch?"

"Quite literally, yeah." Lily stopped.

"Huh?"

Owen smirked, "You're a werewolf, bushy tail and floppy ears and all."

"Dude, I'm about the deck you. I am not a flea infested mutt."

"Yeah, ya are. But that's not all."

"Oh yeah?"

"Try a Spell caster, werewolf and I think I see some fairy in you too. Not enough to matter, but it's there." Lily glared at him.

"I think they let you out a little too early."

"Out?"

"The Nut House? Loony Bin? Insane Asylum? House Of No Return? Casa De Locos?"

"I get it. But if I go, you get to go with me, little miss werewolf."

"Prove it!" Lily shouted, her frustration reaching her breaking point.

"Well, You know how Lucifer fell from heaven right?" Lily shrugged.

"I'm not into religion."

"Well, I fell too. I guess you can call me Satan's son, or a Fallen Angel if you want."

"I need to sit down. You need to explain, and like now."

"Take a seat, well be here a while."
