It had been only twenty four hours since the first death. I hadn't even gotten out of my car, and there was a row of news vans. A reporter ran up to me to talk about Nina, the girl who was brutally murdered. I told her to fuck off and shoved my ear buds in and walked inside the school.

"Diana, care to share something about yourself?" Mr. Branson asks with an attitude.

Yeah, I'm a witch. I wish I would of said that, instead I share some boring summer memory.

Everyone shared boring stuff about themselves, and we continued to listen about what was to be taught. Not a single mention of Nina. I stared at the clock, watching it get closer and closer to the end of class.

The bell finally rang, and I bolted out, colliding into my friends, Audrey and Noah. We chatted about the murder, and they told me their suspects, and asked if I'd investigate. I told them I'd do my best. I walked to my locker, switched my books, closed it, and turned around.

Familiarity is comfort, and that is exactly what I felt when I found him amongst the moronic student body of Lakewood.

Kieran Wilcox. He was no longer the little boy I had grown up throwing wads of paper at, and chased around my backyard. His boyish features were long gone, and replaced with a man's.

"Well, well, well, if it isn't little Diana, you grew up on me." His grin alone overwhelmed me with joy. "Kieran."

I ran towards my old friend who welcomed me with open arms. And once he wrapped them around me I felt a sensation that reminded me of home.

"I can't believe you're back! It's been four years, god I've missed you so much!" I exclaimed, with my face stuffed in his chest. I felt the slightest bit of tears come out, I was so overwhelmed with joy. His grip tightened and he rustled my hair.

"You think I was gonna be gone forever? Please, we only moved for an investigation. I promised you I'd come back. I don't break those so easily."

We broke off and smiled at each other, and I couldn't help but embracing him again.

The bell rang, but luckily we had the same class together. We ran to class, and sat down next to each other. This class didn't do introductions, we didn't listen to what we would learn, instead we actually talked about Nina and mourned her death.

"So whose your friend Diana?"

"This is Kieran, I've known him since my childhood."

"Mhm and when did he come here and why?"

Kieran looked over at me, confusion on his face as to why my friends were questioning him. "They do this with all new friends, don't let them scare you."

"Okay, well I moved back because my dad is the sheriff, and he finished an investigation in another town."

"So he knows about the recent murder? On the dumb bitch?" Audrey asked, with a snicker.

Kieran looked at me again with concern now. "Yes, he's investigating Nina's murder."

"Yeah, hope so."

Our table was silent after that. Kieran looked uncomfortable, so I tried changing the subject.

"So, how's everyones first day back? I already wanna leave if anyone was wondering." Audrey stared at me and didn't answer, Noah shrugged, and Kieran looked away. I realized nothing was gonna break the tension, so we just ate in silence. Kieran wanted to get to class early, so he hugged me and said bye to everyone.

"He seems suspicious." Audrey exclaimed, as soon as he was gone.

"Why? He's a good friend of mine, whats so suspicious?"

"He just has that nature, you don't see it?"

"No."

"Okay, well how about you update yourself on him, it has been four years. Just get into his memories and see what's up inside that mind."

I looked away, "I guess I can try."

"Thanks, see ya in class." Audrey said, as the bell rang. I sat at the table longer than I should have. I didn't wanna have to get into his mind when he just came back. Ugh.

The rest of the day was a bore, I couldn't wait to get home. I was walking to my car when I felt arms wrap around my waist. I looked up, and smiled because it was Kieran.

"Come get food with me, I wanna catch up." I happily agreed and followed him to a café. We ordered coffee and some muffins and talked for almost two hours. Toward the end he told a joke, and as I laughed my hand landed on his arm, triggering me to see memories. I immediately stopped laughing and watched what came to me.

"Diana." Kieran said angrily, which snapped me to reality.

"Hm?"

"Were you looking into my memories?"

I stared at him, my eyes wide with shock. "Kieran I'm so sorry, I accidentally triggered it."

He sighed heavily, and crossed his arms so I couldn't touch them.

"Is it because of Audrey?"

"No, no Kieran I swear it was an accident. I'm so sorry."

He called for our bill, paid quickly, and got up and signaled for us to leave and end our catch up.

When we got outside I said sorry again and walked to my car. He didn't try to stop me. I got inside my car and cried a little bit. It not like I asked for these stupid powers. Its not like I really wanted to see his memories, it was a pure accident and I wish he'd understand. I'm such an idiot. I finished my rant to myself and started my car and drove home.

I got home and sulked up the stairs. I did my homework for the next hour and waited til nine for any texts or calls from him.

Nine hits and I decided to turn my phone off instead of waiting, and tried to fall asleep. I cried myself to sleep because I was so mad at myself.
