Dear journal
I'm losing my mind. Definitely. I thought this could all be a nightmare. That none of what happened that night really happen. But it did, an it happened again. At school today. I ruin everything I get in contact with. Especially bulbs. Maybe they just hate me. Now I'm even scared of touching my phone, too afraid I'll torch it too. I'm an electric disaster just waiting to happen.

     "What are you always writing" Klaus asked, taking a seat by me. I knew I couldn't tell him. I mean I barely know him. But he's been so nice to me.

       "It's my journal, I write about my day in it, it helps" I said, mumbling the last part. It wasn't a complete lie. It was only half of the truth. I was too afraid to tell him the whole truth behind it. I'm a freak of unnatural nature.

         "Am I in there" he joked, trying to take a peek. I blushed, looking away from him. "Can I ask you something" he asked seriously, looking down at the half eaten cupcake in his hand. I nod, humming in response.

          "What really happened in that room" he asked, looking at me as if demanding answers to his question. Answers I don't have an questions I'm still asking. But what if I told him, an he thought I was crazy. What if he laughed in my face an told me I'm being foolish. I don't think I could bare losing him because of what was happening inside me.

         Maybe in due time, it'll pass just like menstruations. Maybe it's a puberty thing. What am I saying, I'm a freak and it's obvious.

          "I don't know" I shrugged, but then something came to me. Something really stupid, and i stupidly blurted it out. "Do you believe in the supernatural" he tensed at my words.
 
          "I can't say I don't" he replied, staring out at the field where the football players were currently practicing for the up coming spirit week game. I was baffled by his answer. "Do you"

           "I'm think I'm starting to" I told him honestly. He looked at me in confusion. Taking my hand in his, lacing our fingers together he kissed the back of my hand.
