Chapter 9

Claire's POV

I stepped out of the "Pizza Zone" line with my tray filled with a slice of cheese pizza, two pineapple cups, and a chocolate milk. It was just like my dream. Could this be my first dream-vision?

As my dad grew up he would have countless numbers of dreams that seemed so real. Well every once in a while a few of the dreams would become real. For example my dad had a dream once where he was moving things in and out of a house. Well when he was in college my dad go a job as a moving person; every detail was exactly like his dream: his clothes, the house, the piece of furniture he was holding, everything. Then soon after that he dreamt of himself teaching kids that looked like they were in high school. That dream came true several years later when he got a job at Greens High School, teaching history to kids. He called these "dream-visions". As a kid I had a lot of Dejavu moments, but we dind't count those because I couldn't remember if I actually dreamt them.

I weaved through the overcrowded tables of loud babbling kids, just like in my dream. When I got to my table Luke, Akari, and Natalie were there but Maya wasn't. Akari and Natalie looked at me expectantly while Luke just moved his leftovers around in its plastic bowl, trying to occupy himself with something (which was wierd because in my dream he was picking at the label on an apple). I sat down in Maya's seat and nodded at them.

"I know, I heard. Maya and Luke are fighting so you don't want Maya to attack Luke," I said. Akari smiled warmly at me as if to say thanks and I even thought I saw a tiny smile forming on the edges of Natalie's lips, but it vanished as quickly as it came.

Maya came soon after and she sat in my seat. Maya ate her lunch in silence while Akari and Natalie were talking about the different kinds of noses that they draw. Luke had given up trying to eat and had started looking through Akari's sketchbook and I looked over his shoulder.

I felt something poking out of my back pocket so I pulled it out to find that it was my ID card. I set it on the table, on top of my books and not a second later a hand snatched it away. The hand belonged to Maya.

Akari eyed Maya as Maya put her hand behind her back. "Give it back Maya."

"What?" Maya said innocently. "I didn't take anything!" Natalie shot Maya one of her stern looks. Maya's happy face turned into a frown and a monotone look spread across her face. She slammed my Id card on the table, grabbed her books and her lunchbox, and fled from our table. We watched her go and no one said anything until Natalie mumbled something.

"Good riddance."

I glared at Natalie but she avoided my gaze so I finished my lunch and headed over to the bathrooms by the gym.

I stepped into the pink-tiled bathroom to find it quiet and empty, but when I took one step forward a fit of sobs erupted from under one of the stalls. I cautiously peered under the stalls until I found that the 3rd stall had feet in it.

I would know those shoes anywhere...
