Truth or Dare
I woke up screaming, even more exhausted than before. I looked at the clock with bleary eyes. Crap! Late! I quickly took a shower and threw something on not even looking if it matched. I took my bag and flew out of the front door into my car. I had history through the first half until my break. People watched me awkwardly as I walked through the corridor. I didn't care, I was to tired to even look up from the floor. Tia joined me with a worried expression painting on her face. 'Toilet! Now!' I looked at her confused. What was she talking about? My brain refused to work and she just took my hand and tugged me to the toilets. 'You two midgets out! Now! Do I make myself clear?' She looked angrily at two younger girls which shot out of the toilet terrified. 'What the hell is going on with you?' I looked at her confused and she just carried on. 'Yesterday after I went home I heard that you went flying home after Micheal started apologising. Apparently you acted like you were mental! And today you coming to school looking like some animal just attacked you! Daniel was supposed to be out for days and the next thing I know he comes back right after something bad happens and everyone says you two are dating! Oh and just look at yourself! You look like a ghost! I swear if that boy has done something to you he's gonna pay for it!' She said furiously. I glanced at the mirror and was terrified at what saw. My face was pale white and I had dark under eye circles, mu pupils were dilated and my hair was a mess. I looked like I was haunted or possessed by something. My knees were jelly and all I wanted to do is lie in my bed and sleep. It only now got to me what Tia said about Daniel. He said that we we're going out. Was he crazy? He promised not to tell anybody. On the other hand, he didn't. But it was still stupid of him. I was going to have to deal with him later. 'Daniel hasn't done anything. I just haven't been getting enough sleep lately. I've been getting nightmares all the time and I can't stop them coming. I'm actually afraid to com back to sleep.' This was the truth. I WAS afraid of going back to sleep. The nightmare hasn't been completely the same as last time. It's gone worse, far worse. I couldn't remember it clearly but it was terrible. I didn't even want to think about it. Tia looked at me worried. 'You know what. We're not going English. We're staying here! I'm going to have to bring you back to life.' I looked at her confused. I didn't like her 'bringing me back to life' stuff. As far as I was concerned as soon as I gain all my powers I actually WAS going to be dead. 'You're going need to have a hell of a lot of makeup to hide those dark circles. You look like you've been punched! And your hair needs a lot of help as well.' I exhaled with relief. I thought Tia was going to do some kind of religious ritual. but she only wanted to make me LOOK normal. For the next part of the morning up until lunch Tia bustled around me, by lunch I actually looked quite decent. I walked out of the bathroom with Tia by my side. Tia stepped proudly completely ignoring other people. Daniel was coming towards them. His expression was calm as always but his eyes were angry. 'We need to talk. Now!.' We said in perfect unison and Tia laughed. 'Well in that case I'll leave you two lovebirds alone.' She laughed walking towards the cafeteria. 'Why did you tell everybody we're dating?' I demanded. He looked confused 'I didn't! I thought it was you!' He answered me. I looked him directly in the eyes, he wasn't lying. 'But then who?' I asked him curiously. He shrugged.'I need to talk to you, privately. Come to my house after school. Its urgent.' I said firmly and gone to join Tia in the cafeteria. The rest of the day was a blur. All I could think of was Daniel. I was going to tell him today. He knew about everything anyway I just had to admit it. It was going to be hard but I had to do it. I sat nervously in my bedroom waiting for the doorbell to ring. Finally it did. I ran towards the door opening it forcefully. Daniel stood there looking dead serious. 'I think we should go somewhere more private' was all he said and I nodded. He gestured for me to sit in the car. We drove in silence, the tension in the atmosphere was almost touchable. Finally we came to the lawn, where I met him a few weeks ago whilst I got lost. We sat on the grass near the river that surrounded the whole of the little town. 'Remember that story you told me?' i asked him and he nodded 'Well you probably figured it out already but I am immortal. The 'living death' as you call us.' He nodded calmly. I sort of expected him to get angry with me after the dream but he didn't even flinch.'I cannot be trusted. Ever. Its my fate to kill people like you. We try to resist, but sometimes it's just to hard.' I was fighting back tears now. He hugged me closely and let go after a while. 'It might seem funny to you but all the sharing secrets and stuff, it's a little bit like truth or dare.'Well in that case its my turn to ask.' I turned to look at him 'I haven't told anyone that we're dating. So did you?' He looked at me with his composed expression. 'No I didn't.' To my surprise I believed him. But then who? 'I guess people started to talk after the drowning incident.' I flinched as he said this turning my head side ways. It was probably the most rational answer to all this. 'My turn now. Truth or Dare?' He asked me and I smiled biting my lip. 'Dare.' I replied. He took my hand and lowered his voice to a whisper. 'Kiss me.'
