I was snapped out of my sweet daydream, when a very aggravated teacher slapped her ruler on my desk. I jolted up wards from the ear splitting sound of Mrs. Pence' s ruler. I heard quiet snickers coming from the students behind me. I glanced at my French teacher who didn't have a very jolly look on her pale face.
" Pourquoi n'écoutes-tu pas Alium?" Mrs. Pence asked in the romantic language. I stumbled for an answer, as well as in the same language.
" Je suis désolé. Je n'ai pas beaucoup dormi." I replied giving her a small puppy eye. She sighed and told me to sleep more tonight. Class was shortly dismissed afterwards. I quickly backed my bags, and raced out and down the glass and marble corridor. Said corridor was on the third floor (language hall) of South Inter High School. One side of the hallway has red brick walls. While the other side is all glass and railing. It was midday which meant that the sun from the sky light above illuminated the building. I found the male's loo and quickly made my way in and locked the stall door behind me.
My phone in my brief pocket went off with a ring. Setting my bag down I took said mobile out and checked the notifications bar.
Broski: Man! Where are you?! Are you ready yet?
I raised my brows and sent a text replying...
Brohas: Just about to change. On 3 floor loo.
I set my phone on the top of the toilet, and turned my attention to my bag. I zipped the thing open, and took out a fresh pair of clothing. My classes were done for the day so why stay in a uniform any longer right? Not only that but my brother, and sisters are heading out for a Friday night time. It's traditional for us to go out every other Friday of the week. I quickly got to work getting changed.
Pretty time skips
I opened the stall door to nearly head butt my brother in the face. He laughed an obnoxious laugh that made me irritated. His light blond hair had fresh blue tips. He was dressed in black skinny jeans, a dark blue dress shirt that matched his tips with the sleeves rolled up. He wore blue converses. I also took to notice the that his left ear was home to spike chains ear jacket earrings. Damn he was fine (note my none interest). I walked past his smirk and perfect body, and went to check myself in the mirror. I was dressed in dark blue jeans, a thin white and black striped sweater, and white tiny shoes. My brown messy hair probably added to my attraction, and the fact that it is kind of curly. I set my bag on the counter top. I took out my own earrings. I placed them on the upper part of my right earlobe. There were now two cross cross ear cuffs there.
My brother gave me a whistle to which I gave him the birdie. He chuckled, and grabbed my back pack. Sighing I followed him out of the loo, and into the bright orange and yellow hallway. Sunset was the most beautiful here in our campus. The corridor was as if apart of said sunset it's self.
"Ally...you what to talk about it, " my brother said asked with a suggestive tone. He was again smirking. "Gods your gorgeous," he added staring at me. I rolled my eyes, and shoved him forward to start walking.
"Maybe next time Sasha," I replied naturally. He laughed as we made our way out of the school building.
Times a skipping.
A shiny red convertible waited outside the gates. Leaning against it was a young woman wearing sunglasses. Her deep violet dyed hair was curled and resting against her bare shoulders. Her attire was...well...I'm sure you can image. Just think sexy and black. Around her pale neck was a choker opal point crystal pendant. She beamed taking off her glasses revealing her amber eyes. She raced up halfway to greet me with a very...cushiony..cough..hug...cough cough.
"Omg Ally it's been like foreves!" She exclaimed. Her American accent rang clearly. How dare she abuse the Queen's English! I growled at Dakota, and made my way out her arms. She simply dismissed this and told us to hop in.
Sasha and I were sitting in the back seat. Dakota was riding passenger next to Velma. Her black hair was neatly pinned in a bun. She wore a simple dark purple cocktail dress. Though her left fingers were decorated with thin rings that twisted. All silver and if any had gems then they were opals.
"So how was your last day of the term?" Velma asked as we made our way through west London.
"Boring~," Sasha whined but then added," But Ally here made it all better when he dressed in his classyness attire." He wrapped an arm around my shoulder bringing me closer to him. I rolled my eyes as he gave me that stupid smirk. I swear he acts to much like Dakota sometimes. I averted my eyes to Velma's in the mirror.
"It was alright but...something strange happened in French class."
"Oh! And what might that be?" Dakota asked turning in her seat to face me through her shades.
"Well near the end my mind started drifting off-"
" Ooh~ Little Ally has been daydreaming during a lecture~" Sasha sang. I elbowed his stomach which caused him to remove his arm from me, and grimace in pain. "Love~ not so hard," he whimpered. Dakota snickered, but then signaled for me to continue.
"Well as I was drifting off I heard a song...in fact I think it was a song I heard before."
Velma glanced at me through her rear view mirror.
"How does it go?" She asked me in an interested tone. I racked my mind to remember the tune and lyrics. After sitting there for a minuet I finally remembered it. I began singing it to my siblings.

I finished and notice the strange looks I was getting. A frown formed on my face as I asked, " was it bad?" Yes I was more worried about the fact that I didn't sing the bizarre song well enough.
"Nono! Your were wonderful Luv," Sasha reassured me. He had stars in his eyes which meant I'd done well. Dakota busted out cackling suddenly startling Velma. Luckily Velma is a professional driver so we simply swerved a tad bit.
"Isn't that from like Shakespeare or something?!" She laughed while she spilled tears of humor. My cheeks heated as I realized that I had actually read the poem not to many days ago. She faced me and laughed even harder when she no iced my red face in the light of the street lamps. We were currently on Notting Hill Gate street. There were clusters of stores, restaurants, cafes...and Starbucks. Yes it's separate because to me it's an abomination to coffee of all kind.
"Kody sit back down!" Velma shouted smacking Dakota on her leg with her free hand. The lady yelped and sat back correctly in her seat. I was a blushing mess in the back next to my brother. Speaking of which was currently hugging me and telling me that no matter what he still loves me. Normally I would have shoved him away, but I needed to hide my face from the others.
"The little yellow door is within sight!" Dakota informed. We took a left into the area, and went to find a parking space. I was still red faced by the time we were seated inside.
We grabbed a table in the back furthest from the bar. I wasn't really happy about my brother and I being the youngest in the building. Technically this is an eighteen and older diner/bar. However when you live with Dakota things become more...available. Meaning we have fake IDs that she made for us. As we waited for the waiter to bring the food we order Sasha told them about his day. All while playing with my earlobe that held the golden criss cross cuffs. I sat there listening, and trying not to push him away. Because if I were to do that he'd find another part of my body to entertain himself with.
The waiter came back with our food at around eight thirty, which gave us an hour till they transformed this place into a pub. The four of us ate, and shared stories. At times even throw food at each other. We finally left at nine ten, and headed to the Gate Cinema. We ended up watching Rouge One: a Star Wars story. I wasn't sure how to fill about the ending. Dakota and Sasha were disappointed, while Velma said it was a perfect ending.
We based by many alley ways to get back near the little yellow door. Since we decided to walk to the cinema we not have to walk back.
"Hey guys!" Dakota said stopping my brother and I. The two of us turned to give her our attention. "Me and Velma-"
"Velma and I ," I corrected.
"Are going to check out this goth jewelry shop real quick. Go on ahead. Here!" She said throwing Sasha the keys. "We'll be quick!" With that she dragged Velma with her into the disturbing looking shop. Sasha began to walk away with me following him.
Cars zoomed by as we walked in utter silence on the side walk. Sasha was twirling the keys on his middle finger, as he whistled the Star Wars theme. As we neared another small alley way I caught the sound of screaming. Sasha and I took off towards it.
The alley was lit in a soft green glow that ended shortly after it was lit. The two of us came face to face with a deranged man. His dark hair was greasy as was the rest of his body. He wore rags as clothing. His eyes found ours and we froze. In his hand a stick, and on the floor a young woman dressed in strange attire. He growled as he made his way towards us. Sasha took out his Swiss Army knife he kept, and pointed at the man.
"Don't get any closer you maniac!" He warned. The insane man stopped and stared at the knife before laughing. He started walking again. " I'm not playing here!"
"Oh sweet little muggles," he said. Muggles? What the bloody hell is a muggle? Apparently I wasn't the only one thinking that. Sasha seemed just as confused as me. "You shouldn't have come here."
Mr. Criminal raised his stick at us. A strange almost creepy spark lit his eyes. He opened his mouth and began to yell the strangest of words.
"Avad-"
A light hit his back and he froze. Sasha grabbed my hand in fear possibly. Now I was just plain lost. Five people just suddenly popped out of no where. The two women who also had sticks cuffed his hands, and disappeared with a loud pop.
"You boys alright?" A man with black hair asked. I glanced at him and noticed he had green eyes behind spectacles. And the oddest lightening shaped scar on his forehead. "He didn't hurt you did he?" We shook our heads silently.
"Sir! Are they muggles?" Another asked the man. Again with that name.
"What is a muggle?" Sasha asked. The green eyed man glanced back at us with confusion.
"Sorry about this." The man raised his own stick and pointed it at us. Before he could even utter a word we bolted out of the alley. I could hear them calling out to us as we fled into the crowds of the street.
Dakota and Velma were already at the car when we reached it. They started questioning us, but we told them we needed to leave. So we left leaving the area and heading east.
Pretty times a skip
The four of us sat in our apartment living room. Photos of the years hung on the walls. It was a fairly neat place, clean and all. We told them what had happened to us earlier.
"So your saying that these dudes just randomly popped outta no where?" Dakota asked with a frown. Velma shot her a glare. "What?"
"Yeah and they then knocked out the guy with a flash of light...and a stick," Sasha said. I sat in silence recalling the odd scene we witnessed.
"Well that settles it. Tomorrow I am going to report this to the police," Velma said. And after that we shall drop the issue and continue with our everyday lives...is that understood?"
We bid each other good night. The girls retired to their shared room, as did Sasha and me. Our apartment only has two bedrooms. Thought they big enough for two beds. We changed into our sleep wear and turned off the lights. The lamp was still on. We didn't like the dark.
"Hey Sasha ...you okay?" I asked as I sat down next to the blond. He was shaking badly. He looked up at him with fear and recognition.
"I feel like I've seen it before," he whispered. "The light with the sticks they carried. And those cloths they wore."
"Oh...um...well try not to think to much of it alright?" I told him as i got up to go to my own bed. Though he simply dragged me back onto his bed. I didn't struggle, and let him hold me as he curled into my chest. Sighing I rubbed his back in a soothing pace. My other hand messaged his head. We lauded in silence listening to each other's breathing pattern. Soon enough sleep took us away from this world. Only to be taken to a crueler one in our dreams.
