I woke up with my head hurting and my stomach growling. A woman walked in with a tray of food. "Is your head hurting?"She asked me. "No it's fine."I said, shoveling food into my mouth. "Someone would like to see you."She said smiling. "Okay."I said. A boy walked in and asked,"Alice are you alright?" "Yes."I asked. "That is wonderful."He said. "Who are you?"I asked. "Alice it's me."He said. Then I realized, that was Draco. His arm was in a sling and he had a shallow cut on his head. "Oh, Draco."I said stunned. My head started hurting again and the room frosted over. I laid my head down and Draco walked over to me. "What did your parents say when they found out?"I asked him. "They were ticked off but happy to see I was okay."He said. I sat up slowly and put my legs over the sid of the bed. They were bruised badly. I held onto Draco as I stood up. He put his arm around my waist so I wouldn't fall. His hand felt like a hot branding iron against my abnormally cold skin. I started to walk and it felt like I was walking on nails. I used my free hand and created a crutch. I leaned on it and made another one. I walked to the door and Draco opened it. My head stopped hurting and we walked down the hall and into the lobby. I saw Rose, Zarina, Flash, Buffy, and Skeleta sitting down talking to each other. When they saw me, they all ran over to me and nearly knocked me down if it weren't for Draco being behind me. They hugged me and Draco walked over to Zarina and told her something. We all went back to school and everyone asked Draco and I what happened. We told them and went to our last block.


Draco and I always have sat next to each other but something was different about today. I'm pretty sure that we were to shy to talk to each other… for the first time ever. "What did you and Zaria talk about in the hospital?"I asked him after a half hour of silence. "We broke up."He said. "Why?"I asked. "Because I like someone else."He said smiling a little. "Who?"I asked. He opened his mouth to say something and the bell rang. I picked up my stuff and stood up. We walked out of class and went to the parking lot. "I like you."He said smiling. "Really? Even after I almost killed you."I asked stunned. He gave me a quick nod. His smile turned into a frown. I saw Chad coming towards us. "What did you do to yourself?"He asked sounding worried. "Why would you care?"Draco said angrily. "I wasn't talking to you."Chad said turning to him. "Well I'm pretty sure it's obvious that she doesn't want to talk to you."Draco growled. "Both of you stop this."I said, my head started to hurt. Chad grunted and stomped off. "That jerk."Draco hissed. "Yeah."I said, walking towards the direction of my house. Draco walked with me and we talked about why we thought Roseline was acting strange. When we got to my house he continued walking. We live next door to each other. I walked into the house and my mom was sitting next to my older sister. I snuck past them and went upstairs to my room. I quietly shut the door, grabbed my laptop, and sat down on my bed. I put the crutches on the floor and opened it up. I looked at my e-mail and saw that I had one from Draco.

Hey Alice,

Look out your window.

Sincerly, Draco


I looked out of the window that faced his house and saw him standing there. I opened the window and said,"Hey, what do you need?" He opened his window and said,"I think I know why Rose has been acting so weird." "Really? Why?"I asked. "Halloween night she wasn't faking about being a vampire."He said, looking at the house across the street. "She did say her dog has been acting strange and that her teeth have been hurting."I said meeting his gaze. Rose was outside trying to get Princess, her dog, to come to her. I looked down into the opening between our houses. "Meet me in the backyard."I told him and shut my window. I got my crutches and went downstairs. I hopped out the door and went around back. I stood at the gate between my house and Draco's house. He was next to his dogs house. The big german shepard bounded out of the dog house and ran over to the gate. "Hey Lila."I said to the two year old pup. Draco opened the gate and we walked to Roseline's house. Princess ran over to me and jumped in my arms. Rose came over to me and I felt Princess starting to growl and shake. Draco's eyes lit up like fire and something bright shot out of his hand and hit Rose. "ROSE!"I yelled.
