Alison's POV

April 21st, Monday

No. No. No

School, was the last place I wanted to go now. I could ditch. I could be a runaway. But that's not the kind of person I am, even though I am a runaway in some ways.

I slowly opened one eye, and then the other. The light was not there. The last thing I wanted was darkness. The thick black and red curtains kept out all the light. I got up and opened the cursed curtains letting the light in.

I looked out into the faraway sky, wondering how on earth does it always stay blue. I repeat that out loud a couple of times, but I didn't get my answer.

I turned away from the light, and back into the dark, in the bathroom. I raised up the blind and let the light flood the bathroom too.

I stared at myself in the mirror, hoping the live looking girl would come back to me. She didn't. She decided to stay away from me, so I had to make myself look the least bit happy, or approachable.

I opened my cosmetic bag, and took out a hair brush. I was standing there for a while trying to unknot my unearthly hair. I applied a little bit less of eye-liner than usual, not to make me look even more dead.

Even though I wasn't satisfied with my looks yet, I had to leave. No matter how much I didn't want to go to school, I couldn't make my life harder by not going.

I rushed downstairs, and had a peek inside the fridge. It was loaded with my favourites. Lasagne, spaghetti, water. Evan took care of everything, and I couldn't help but feel the least bit of appreciation.

I grabbed an apple and ran out the door, the most movement I've made since the accident.

I ran in the direction I hoped the school was, which was east. Just as I was about to tell myself to 'stop running, turn body, go other direction' I saw a sign that read East West High (I couldn't think of anything better)

I slowed my pace as I neared the yellow building. Each step I got closer to my nightmare, and I was dumb enough to keep on going.

The bell rang, and I screamed in shock.

I started running again, and through the doors. I followed the little signs showing to the office. I didn't trust the signs too much but they were the best informer I had.

I found it...eventually. I knocked on the door and a harsh 'WHAT?!' was heard. I walked in shyly, keeping my eyes on my feet-

"WHAT YOU WANT?" yelled a woman in mid 50s holding the school phone in her hand.

"I'm the new student" I whispered trying to hold my head at eye level

"WHAT?!"

"I'm the new student" I repeated just the tiny bit louder

"WHAT?!" yelled the secretary again slamming the phone down and looking at me with her dagger eyes through her thick glasses.

"I'm the new student"

"Oh, for the love of god, SPEAK OUT!"

"ME" I pointed to myself "n-e-w s-t-u-d-e-n-t"

"Well why didn't you say so?" she asked sounding a whole lot more cheery and welcoming.

"I did"

"No cheek missy. Fill this in" she passed me a form. Evan's voice rung in my head 'I filled in everything you need, don't fill in any forms...' "Umm...my brother filled in the forms I just need the schedule."

The secretary eyed me suspiciously but took back the form, handing me another piece of paper.

Schedule....

English was first...with Mr. Dassy...okay

I nodded at the secretaries direction and rushed towards room 17

......

.........

...........

I stood in front room 17, 15 minutes later, just as the bell rang...the doors flung open and a big crowd rushed out of the class room knocking me to the ground.

After everyone was gone to...wherever, I pulled myself up and looked at my schedule...maths with Ms. Casey room 23. I sighed and went for another long journey.

I found the room in a couple shorter minutes and knocked lightly. The door wasn't ready to open so I got the sudden braveness to open it myself.

"He-llo" sang the teacher sliding over to me. She lowered her glasses and looked me over. "New?" she asked as if she didn't know. I nodded. "Been there" she sighed. She looked young enough, round her 30s. "You wanna introduce yourself?" she asked, and I nodded...wrong gesture. Shake your head Alison. Side to side, not up and down! WRONG MOVEMENT!

"Really?" she asked surprised to meet someone stupid enough to introduce themselves in front of a class of people you are scared of.

Say NO!!!!!

"Yes..."

"Okay then..." she slid back to her desk and leaned against it, nodding for me to go on.

"I'm...I'm...Alison"

"Okay now we know you, sit down...right over there by the window" said Ms Casey seeing my discomfort.

I scooted over and sat down by the window. All eyes were on me...no duh. None of them knew they were looking at the face of a murderer. The killer of her own mother and father...

Either I fell asleep or there was a time jump...I fell asleep...

The bell startled me...again and I slowly unglued myself from the chair and followed wherever the crowd was going, cuz it was lunch, and I didn't want to be swimming around the halls for another hour and miss lunch...which would have been a pretty good idea...

The second I entered the full silver room it was like time stopped. Everyone turned to look at the doors and some mouths went so low their food fell out. I turned around to see what everyone was gaping at but saw nothing...They were all gaping at me...Just like I feared. Just like the secretary they found me suspicious. They knew something. Who moves in the middle of the year to a new city? Alone? Well, they didn't know that...yet. But something was up.

I started to move forward, but the eyes followed me. I tried to hide my own eyes but the hundreds of others were like magnets pulling them up.

I shook it off, and made my way towards an empty table...

"Hey ya beautiful"

I know that was aweful but I wanted to update and maybe satisfy the least bit of you! :D please review and I really need your ideas!!!!!!
