Chapter 1

This sucked. I was being forced to transfer schools thanks to a small wizarding accident at my old, totally mortal school."White Chapel High will be a good experience for you,"my Mom promised as she walked me to class. "All High Schools are cruel evil places, Mom,"I said pointedly, as I reached in my bag to grab my wand. "No magic at school Emily,"she said in a warning tone. "Whatever Mom.I'll see you tonight." My Mom kissed me on the cheek."Have a good first day sweetie."I rolled my eyes and opened the door. That's when I saw him. He was sitting in the middle of the room, his emerald green eyes glazed and distracted. "Um, excuse me?"

I turned to see the teacher."Oh, hi. I'm Emily. I'm uh-new,"I explained. "So you are,"she mumbled coldly before turning to the class. "Class this is Emily."Everyone mumbled hi and I was directed to a seat next this blonde kid named Rory. He wasn't bad, but I was still looking at Green Eyes. "Hey Rory!"I whispered sharply, feeling brave. "Yeah?"he said taking a break from whatever geeky thing he was doing."What's his name?"Rory looked up. "Him?"I nodded."Oh that's Benny. Why?"I shrugged then smiled to myself. Benny... "Hey want me to show you around?"Rory asked."That'd be ,"I said a little surprised.

When the bell rang I told Rory I'd meet him later and hurried out my seat."Ouch!"I called when I managed to bump into this boy with dark hair and dark eyes. "Excuse my 's an idiot,"Benny joked, helping me up. I looked into his eyes."Wow,"I breathed."You okay?"they both asked. "What? Oh, yeah.. Uh, thanks.."I babbled. "No prob,"Benny said smiling. "I'm Ethan, by the way,"the dark haired boy broke in extending his hand. "Cool. Im Emily,"I started to say, but he got this blank look on his face when we touched. "Really?"he asked looking from me to Benny when he came to. I looked at him blankly. How could he know already?

"It's a lot to explain,"he told me quickly. I nodded, unsure what to say."Well Ive gotta go... Do something... So maybe Benny can walk you to class,"Ethan said hurrying out."Yeah he's on, don't want you to be late on your first day,"Benny said holding the door open. "How sweet," I joked walking through. "Well I'm nothing if not a gentlemen,"he said smiling. I giggled despite myself. "Need help with that?"Benny asked gesturing to my books. ","I said handing them to him."So what brings you here?"he asked as we walked. "Something happened at my old my parents think switching schools is the only way to keep me safe."Benny scoffed. "What?"I asked. "Huh?Oh nothing,"he replied vaguely
