When I got to Dr. GiIll's office she studied me like a lab rat. She asked about my sleeping habits, eating habits, and my feelings on being here. I answered them all with simple answers such as "good" or "fine" except the last one. I just laughed and rolled my eyes.

"What's so funny?"

"How do I feel about being here?"

"Yes that's what I asked."

I sigh and sit there refusing to answer. She tried to get eye contact with me but I kept averting my eyes.

"We want you to trust us Iris."

"Oh I bet you do!"

She sighed.

"As you know the doctors at the hospital ran many tests on you and they found your...condition."

I smirk.

"Whatcha gonna label me as cheif?"

"Excuse me?"

"I know there's nothing wrong with me and you're just gonna slap your label on me so go ahead."

"Iris I know this is a lot to take in and you're confused and scared-"

"Me scared? Is that it? You think you got it all figured out don't you? Well you don't! But I do and i suggest you sleep with. One. Eye Open!"

Dr. Gill's mouth moved up and down in shock.

"Now... my label please!"

"Iris its a real medical illness and its nothing to joke about or whatever you're doing. Blowing it off or whatever! You can't do that! Its real and you must except it!"

"Bull shit."

"I take it the nurses told you to watch your language? I suggest you listen."

"Oh I'm so fucking sorry I won't let my damn tongue slip again."

I smiled my most innocent smile.

Dr. Gill sighed.

"Iris you have a disease called lycanthropy. That means you-"

"I skip class and talk to myself and you're telling me I have lycanthropy?!"

"You also attacked a teacher."

"They had no reason to lay their hands on me."

"Iris be reasonable."

"No you be reasonable! You're going to lie and tell me I have a disease when I'm not even sick! I see what your getting at me talking to myself and attacking a teacher but how the hell does that make me have a disease where I believe I can fuckig shapeshift!?

Then without another word I hopped off the table and left to my room with Dr. Gill calling after me. I went straight to my room not caring what the nurses saying about "rooms are for sleep". I opened my door and found a note on the floor. It read

"Media NOW!"

I laughed to myself. Wonder who that could be.

I got to hallway leading to the media and heard Derek and Simon quietly talking. I walked down the hallway then leaned in the media where I was barely visible.

"Quit messing around get in here!"

"Well Mr. Scrump man! And for the record I don't mess around I do what I gotta do!"

"What did you mean earlier."

"Oh I see no "how are you doing" or "how do you like the place" or not even a "hello" what gentlemen!"

"I'm still teaching him manners."

"He's not your puppy Simon. Well I guess you could say not yet. Right?"

I saw Derek tense.

"Relax big guy!"

The I mumbled under my breath so only Derek could hear

"There are mics in here its not safe."

He looked up at me.

"Up for some basketball?"

I smirked then spun to tell the nurses.

They punched in the code and the three of us went out.

I tied up my hair and threw my hoddie to the side. Simon came out of the shed with a ball.

"Boys against girl?"

Derek looked at me simon said

"I could sit out and you two could-"

"It doesn't matter. You would be much of a challenge anyway."

"Was that a challenge?"

I steal the ball from him and shoot a basket.

"Nah just the truth."

I winked at him and his mouth wet wide.

"If you two could stop messing around and we could get down to business."

"Chill the hell out man!"

I threw the ball at him and he caught it tossing it behind his back.

"Nuthin' but net. Sweet!"

We played basketball for what seemed like hours, which I was thankful for since I wasn't too thrilled to get interrogated by Derek. After a while though he had Simon rest.

We sat on a bench derek on one end me next to him Simon o the end.

"Whooo you stink!"

He gave me his "look" and Simon burst out laughing.

"Ok Iris we've played your game now seriously!"

"But I won doesn't that mean something?"

"It means I'm looking forward to our rematch." said Simon.

"Iris! And Simon you're not helping."

"Fine. What do you want to know?"

"What did you mean the other day? About me smelling you."

"Like I said my perfume-"

"Oh cut the crap! It's obvious you are a werewolf!"

"Like you?"

He didn't comment.

"Oh I see now I get pushed around by Derek to answer all his question and he can't answer mine!"

"Yes."

"And Simon's a sorcerer?"

"Yes. But how do you know?"

"I can smell you first of all and I can smell Simon too."

"Why can't I smell you?"

"I don't know check your honker."

"Now it's late, I'm tired from the busy day, so if you're done-"

We heard a scream inside.

I grabbed my hoodie and ran in.

"Elizabeth Delaney get back here!"

I heard doors slamming and loud footsteps. Derek and Simon slammed into my back causing me to topple over.

"Don't stand in the middle of the doorway!"

"I'll remember that."

I saw Ms. Wang the tutor yelling at the nurses with her suitcase in hand.

"I expected behavioral problems working in a place like this but that girl needs professional help!"

"Ms. Wang please!"

"No! Goodbye!"

I ran to my room to check to Liz. The door was shut and locked with Tori banging on the outside to let her in.

"What happened?"

"Its none of your business."

"Can I get into my room?"

"Well the doors locked smart one."

"No need for attitude sweetheart."

I turned around and Ms. Talbot was walking towards me. She pushed past me and Tori and knocked on the door.

"Liz honey its time for dinner you have to come out."

I waited for about a minute till I heard footsteps and the door unbolting. Liz came out all puffy eyed and red faced but she was in a trance like a zombie or something.

When we got to the dinning room everyone was trying to distract Liz and cheer her up. Everyone except me and Derek of course. He kept looking at me every once in awhile. I resorted to staring at him. He looked up and saw me staring and mouthed

"what?"

I shook my head.

"Talk later."

I nodded.

After dinner we ordered a movie and Liz chose a romantic comedy And as much as I "love" romantic comedies I went with Rae to do laundry. We went to Rae and Tori's room.

"So...what're you here for?"

"Lycanthropy was my label."

"Ah the labels yes they love those here."

"So I've heard."

"I'm apparently a pyromaniac."

"Yeah well every kid's a fire bug at one point in their life. No need for mental help."

"Right?!"

We laughed.

"You know what I'd love to know?"

"Hm?"

"What everyone else is here for. I mean everyone seems pretty normal and Its so secretive here. Wouldn't you just love to know?"

Not caring about their fake labels and hiding the fact that I already knew I told Rae

"Nah."

"Seriously? You don't wanna know why?"

"Nope! Curiosity killed the cat you know."

"Well I'm a pyromaniac!"

and she winked. I rolled my eyes.

"Have fun 'cause I'm out."

I looked at the clock radio. "8:17"

"I'll be back."

"Where are you going?"

And I walked past her without a word.

(OMG! a POV change!)

Derek POV

I was sitting in the desk chair as Simon lay on the bed.

"I don't trust her."

"Oh geeze bro you don't trust anyone."

"No she's not telling us everything."

"Oh come on bro give her a break."

"Just because you want to go out with her doesn't mean I can't question her."

"I DON'T WANT... Ok yeah maybe I do but so what I'm serious about you not trusting anyone."

"I have good reason."

"Uh huh. Like what."

"How did she know what we were?"

"Cause shes a werewolf like you."

"Why can't I smell her?"

"Like she said, check your honker."

I shot him an angry look and he fell off the bed laughing. I pinched the bridge of my nose.

"I asked her to come by she should be here-"

There was a knock on the door.

"And how the hell is she so quiet?! Not even I can hear her coming!"

"Geez are all your senses broken wolfboy? OPEN THE DOOR!"

I opened the door to reveal an Impatient Iris. She was actually kind of pretty...NO I can't think of those things! Not like she'd ever go for me anyway. STOP IT DEREK FOCUS!

"Who holdin' that door for? A ghost? Come here!"

I shut the door and went back to my chair. Iris was on the bed with Simon. Of course Simon. Everyone always goes for- UGH! Shut up! Iris giggled on the bed.

"What?!" I snapped rather harshly just making her laugh harder.

"Did I miss something?" Simon asked.

"N-no." Iris gasped trying to get back together from the laughter.

I arched my eyebrow making her laugh harder.

"Seriously?! Whats-?"

"Beats me?" I said

"S-sorry oh oh man that was good. Anyway!"

"Umm...?"

"Derek don't be silly you don't know me. Simons not really my type. Sorry buddy."

She winked at me and gave Simon an apologetic smile.

"What are you?"

"I am...I don't know. What am I?"

"Look Iris if your just gonna mess around then why are you here?!"

"I dunno you asked me to come."

"To be serious!"

"RAWR RAWR RAWR!"

I sighed and massaged the bridge of my nose. I swear she's like a 5 year old.

"I prefer kindergartener but you know 5 year old works too."

I stopped. Did she just read my mind?

"Yes Derek and you know if I wasn't how would you get answers to these questions of yours?"

"Wha?" asked a confused Simon.

"Fine you don't trust me Derek? Well then lets establish this trust now."
