Kelly
It was an understatement to say that I was confused.
I could barely wrap my head around my own thoughts that day, let alone what the teacher was droning on about at the front of the classroom, after everything I had learned, the work of Mary Shelley and J.R.R Tolkein suddenly seemed alot less important than the last time I had learned about them.
The oncoming test that he had just warned us about seemed an inadequete worry, especially since a mad, power crazed lunatic was after me, and four of my freinds were warlocks with the same powers and one of them was an amazing blond who I couldnt take my mind off of.
It worried me also, that he wasn't staring at me like he always did, his bright blue eyes were no longer resting on me, I couldnt feel them boring through my skin as if he could see inside of me, a feeling that I had become so accustomed to.
I was watching im now, our roles reversed, his head was resting in his arms, his eyes glancing anywhere but my direction.
We had joked as we left Caleb's manor but in the hummer on the way home he was silent, glaring out of the window, Tyler had tried many times to coax him back but the blonde brushed off all of his tries with a small, fake smile or if he didnt want to pretend a shrug of his sslender shoulders. I had had just about an hour to shower and get ready for class after we returned, Reid and Tyler had walked me to my room and Reid had waited outside, much to the dismay of my roomate Clarissa, who had warned me of the boys antics with girls on my first day of classes.
She had watched me futivley as I returned from the shower, her eyes betraying her obvious disgust at the reasons she assumed I had been with the blonde boy all night.
I could only imagine.
After this, I had gone with Reid to the dorm that he and tyler shared and waited as he showered and changed.
The three of us had been late for class.
Caleb, Kate and Sarah were already in, looking as bleak and heavy eyed as I felt, thier usually perfect appearence dissheveled and sleepy. Kids were whispering when they saw us, three gorgeous guys, two gorgeuos girls and the creepy new girl with weird hair, tired and dissheveled, the other gorgeus boy in another class looking exactly the same. The questions were obvious, "What were they up to?"
"where have they been?" and others like it.
I didnt care, normally I would have come up with something to explain, but right now, i was too tired, too scared to care about anyones opinions.
To add to this Reid hadn't spoken a word the whole time, except to tell me to "Not move" as he went to shower and change.
Caleb said next to me "It'll be okay you know" I nodded but didn't answer, those words had alot less meaning coming from him, I loved him to bits of course but I felt much safer with the blond that everybody assumed was an asshole, just being next to him made me relax and smile.
It made other poeple nervous sure, cause he was so reserved, so rude, so arrogant, but hes not, not really, not that I beleive anyway, I could see it in his eyes when Tyler and the others explained the addiction to me, he was scared, he was ashamed and hes stil scared now, scared of Chase, of the others and of course hes scared of the addiction.
He is scared that he will become addicted.
I was surprised when he was so truthful about using too much, and when he promised to stop.
I was just hoping that he would.
I leaned back in my seat stiffling a yawn and tore my eyes away, they landed on caleb and I asked "Will he be like Chase?" worry obvious in my voice as I referred to Reid Garwin.
"We don't know" He answered honestly, thats the probblem with these boys sometimes, theyre so darned honest, honest when you just need them to lie.
"How much does he use?"
"Too much" . Theres the honesty again.
I shuddered, "Its like were talking about heroin or something"
"It has a simular effect"
I nodded and looked at Reid again, he was wathing us now and I couldnt force a smile onto my face even though I felt elated at his returned interest. His eyes were large and a strange sadness shined in them, I found the small smile and he returned it.
I barely heard anything that was said throughout the rest of the day and lunch couldnt come quick enough, when it did I sat with Caleb, the boys and Sarah and Kate.
They were all as quiet as me and I vaguely wondered how we must have looked, the seven of us barely awake with our eyes drooping closed.
I sat next to Reid and Tyler, like I had been lately, where I felt safest, Caleb and Sarah were opposite me and Kate and Pogue next to them.
"Everything normal today?" Pogue asked, he wasnt fortunate enough to be in the same classes as the rest of us. Caleb nodded slowly and the rest of us mimicked him, my head ached as I did so.
"Everything will be okay Reid" Pogue said sensing the tension between everyone "Kelly, You'll b fine"
Reid nodded and said "I'd never let him hurt you" I stared at him, fuly awake at this and smiled, he inched his hand towards where mine rested on the table and grasped it in his. I squeezed his gloved hand and pulled it close to my face where I kissed it, for the first time in a while I felt safe.
