Chapter 1

I sat in the most boring class I had—Pre-Calculus. I always hated math, it was my worst subject. Another day full of finding the functions to equations, I sighed loudly as I began to doodle on a piece of paper beside my notes.

Lately, ever since I had that realistic dream, I have been drawing the man I saw in my dream. He had golden eyes and long silver hair. Strange markings adorned his face and I can't recall him smiling—just a smirk. He was gorgeous though, too beautiful to be human.

"Sorry, I'm late." I looked up to see who had interrupted the class. It was that girl Kagome, I think her name was. She was always out sick but when she returned to school for the short amount of time she usually did, she always looked healthy. There was no way she was always suffering from deadly diseases.

"Nice of you to join us Kagome, I'm sure you have all your missing work?" Our lame teacher called her out on her missing assignments. His tactic for late students. He either reads out your grade or asks for the work that your missing. She smiled widely and took out a large pile of papers and handed it to him.

He simply nodded his head and motioned for her to sit down.

When she sat in the row next to me, two seats in front, I began to wonder what she's really doing. I had her in nearly all my classes, excluding my graphic design class, and she has missed almost two months of every class. I wonder how long she'll be staying this time, I mused.

I focused my attention back on the man that was in my dreams. Focusing detail onto his eyes. I wished I could take out my colored pencils to add the colors of his eyes and hair, but I made a mental note to myself to continue the drawing in my graphic design class. It would turn into a nice piece of art.

I made sure to get all the notes before the bell rang, just because I hated math didn't mean I was gonna let myself fail. Suddenly, and surprisingly, Kagome appeared next to me.

"Hey, you're Athena, right?" She smiled warmly at me.

I nodded my head, wondering why she was even talking to me. Ever since I moved to Japan and started going to school, Kagome was part of the popular group of girls. Of course, she was nice and never had anything bad to say about anyone but that didn't mean she ever noticed me.

"I'm Kagome." Her eyes moved to my notes.

Ah, so that's what she wanted.

"I know," I replied. "We've been going to school together since the third grade." I laughed lightly.

"Oh, duh, silly me. I don't know where my head goes sometimes." She laughed.

I smiled at her, "did you come over here to ask for my notes?"

She sighed, defeated. "Yeah, I did. If you don't mind."

I thought for a moment, "well, I gotta study too, but I don't mind coming over to your place after school and we can study together, you've missed a lot and I don't mind helping."

Her smile got wider, "oh my gosh, thank you! You're seriously a life saver, my friends wouldn't even let me borrow their notes and you're offering to tutor me."

I stood up from my desk grabbing my notebook and placing it in my bag, my drawing still on the table. Kagome looked down at the table and I noticed her eyes grow wide for a second.

She laughed nervously, "did you draw that?"

I nodded my head, "yeah, I did."

"You're really good, where did you get the idea for erm—this person?"

I picked up the drawing and put it in my bag and began to walk with Kagome.

"I dreamt about him." I said simply, unsure of what else to say.

"Oh," she sighed. "How weird."

"Yeah, I don't know who or why I dreamt of him."

She shrugged her shoulders and we both headed to class.

I was in graphic design, drawing the man from my dreams on the computers. I was re-outlining the pencil, since I had scanned and uploaded the drawing, I still wondered why I had dreamt of him and tried to remember every detail of my dream.

I had emerged from a well, and the sun was shining above me. The sky was a bright blue with a few fluffy clouds in the sky. I sat on the edge of the well, and looked around smiling. He appeared at the flash of light and smirked at me, he only smiled rarely and he made sure I knew it.

I quickly hopped off the edge of the well and ran to his side, a smile on my face. He embraced me, he only had one arm but that didn't stop him from picking me up easily.

"I missed you," I said as I kissed him lightly.

"Hn." He nodded his head, he never said much but I knew that he had missed me too.

"We must return home," he said and we began to fly.

We flew above a place that looked nothing like home. There were no cars or large buildings. People weren't buzzing around going to work or school. Instead there were trees, lakes, and occasionally we passed small villages. We flew for hours but we were both content, lightly talking as he held me bridal style in his arm. He wasn't much for conversation, but he would put up with my long stories of home. My brothers and dad, how we used to fight and laugh about silly things.

He put his nose to my head and inhaled lightly. I smiled up at him and he pulled me closer to him.

"Athena, we are home."

I looked down and a large fortress appeared into view.

I opened my mouth to say his name.

But, I never did because I woke up. I thought it was so strange that it was so realistic almost as if I had met him before. Maybe I loved someone like that in a past life and I'm remembering it as if I had lived it, I thought.

The bell rang and school was over, I sighed. I plugged my flash drive into the computer and saved the drawing planning on finishing it when I got home.

"Ready to go?" Kagome's voice reached my ears.

"Oh, yeah, sure." I said.

She eyed the now digitally enhanced drawing, a ton of emotion ran through her eyes and then she smiled at me.

After double checking to make sure I saved my work on the flash drive, I closed the tabs and logged out of the computer. I grabbed my bag and we began to head to the train station. Instantly, we were met by Kagome's friends. They were nice but they were, honestly, annoying.

"Here comes Hojo," one of them nudged Kagome.

"Kagome!" He exclaimed riding on his bike. "I got something for you."

It was no surprise that Hojo had a huge crush on Kagome and it was way too obvious that Kagome had no feelings for him and yet for some reason her friends still tried to pressure her into going out with him.

"You know," I said when Hojo left, after giving Kagome some sort of strange remedy for whatever disease she had now. "You shouldn't force Kagome to go out with him, it's obvious she has no feelings for him."

"What do you know Athena?" One, Yuri I think her name is, said.

"I'm just saying, it's clear she doesn't like him."

"Yes she does, don't you Kagome?" Yuri said.
"Um, actually I don't." She said. "He's sweet, don't get me wrong he's just not my type."

"Because she likes the bad boys." Another friend said, and I laughed lightly.

Kagome's face just turned red, as we continued to walk.

Once on the train, the girls continued to talk about Kagome and her love life. I just shook my head each time they mentioned how Kagome should break up with her current boyfriend and get with Hojo. Honestly, they were kind of annoying and I didn't understand why Kagome was friends with them.

We got off the train and Kagome and I headed to her house. We talked lightly about our teachers and how much she's missed. I offered to help her in all the other classes we had together and she happily accepted after thanking me a hundred times.

We walked up the stairs to her house and went inside, quickly removing our shoes she announced she was home and had brought me along with her.

"Hello," a woman had greeted us.

"Hey mom, this is Athena she's gonna help me with my math since we have a test in a few days."

"Hello Mrs. Higurashi," I smiled at her and followed Kagome around the house to her room.

Kagomes room was simple and extraordinarily clean, almost as if no one even lived in the room. She had a twin sized bed with a pink comforter. A desk was on the other side of the room, across from her bed.

We sat down on the floor and took out my notes for math, science, English, and History. She picked up the notebooks and quickly scanned through them.

"I think my dad has a copy machine at work," I began. "I could ask him to make copies of the last month that you missed."

"Oh my goodness! That would be great! Thank you so much!" She smiled widely.

"I don't understand how you get so sick, you look so healthy."

"Oh, erm, yeah I don't know why. Guess I just have a weak immune system." She said nervously.

"Yeah, I guess so." I shrugged my shoulders although I could tell she was lying.

We wasted no time and began to study, we made flashcards for the definitions for History and Science. English wasn't hard since it was my first language and she knew enough to pass our oral exams that we had coming up. Math was the only problem, we were trying to figure out an efficient way to study it.

"We could practice problems from each section in the book," I suggested while taking out a piece of paper.

"Yeah, it's just that it's so hard and I missed so much."

"I know, hopefully you won't get sick anymore." I smiled.

"Yeah. Hopefully."

I took her math notebook and made clear and detailed instructions while explaining to her how to do each equation. Luckily, for the both of us, she learned quickly and wasn't afraid to ask questions if she didn't understand it. Hours went by and before I knew it, it was time for me to head home.

"Bye Kagome!" I yelled as I walked out the door.

"We're gonna meet together tomorrow right? I know it's the weekend but then we'd have all day."

I smiled, "sure."

I closed the door behind me and began to walk toward the stairs.

Athena.

I turned around thinking I had heard my name being called but didn't see anyone so I continued to walk, dismissing it as the wind.

Athena.

I stopped walking and turned to where it sounded like someone was calling my name. It sounded like it was coming from a well house? I walked toward the small building with the constant sound of my name in my ears. I opened the doors quickly and saw no one, there was only the well. My name was coming from the well, did someone fall in?

I walked down the steps, taking out my phone and turning on the flashlight. There was no one.

"What are you doing?" I heard a voice reach my ears.

I let out a shriek as I jumped up, until I realized that it was Kagome standing there with a curious look on her face. I took a second to calm down and then said, "This is gonna sound crazy, but I thought I heard someone calling my name."

She walked closer to the well, delicately placing a hand on the lip of it. "How strange."

"Yeah, I'm probably just imagining it." I laughed nervously. "Well, I outta go home. My brothers are probably pacing the floor by now, I'll see you tomorrow afternoon." I smiled and readjusted my bag as I walked up the stairs and out the door.

I sighed as I tossed my bag onto my bed. Ever since I left the well house, I needed to draw. I sat down at my desk with my laptop, paper, and my drawing tablet. I began to draw the setting in my dream. I drew the trees and grass, the bright blue sky and the well. I drew myself sitting on the edge of it, and my mystery man standing across from me, waiting for me.

I left the sketch of the drawing up on my laptop as I began to sketch out Kagome's house where the trees were and a building around where the well was. I had no idea what I was doing until I was finished and then I realized that the well at Kagome's house is the same one from my dream! Why did I hear my name from it? Should I have gone down it? No, that's silly. I would end up with something broken if I went down there.

I sighed and shook my head, trying to stop the nonsense that was running through my head. I would find out tomorrow if this well was something more than just a well.
