Premonition
Chapter two: Out Cold
Derek's eyes slowly started to open. His vision was blurry. He lifted his head up, and noticed the classroom was empty; the only person in there was Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith was sitting on his desk staring at Derek. He didn't look mad, or anything, he looked emotionless.
"What's up?" Derek said in a drowsy voice.
Mr. Smith continued staring at him. He finally said.
"Just a lazy student who likes to sleep in my class." Mr. Smith scooted off the desk, and was standing.
Derek started rubbing his eyes. "If you wanted me up, why didn't you just wake me?"
"Brilliant! Why didn't I think of that?" Mr. Smith started to clap as he neared Derek. "I guess I'm not as smart as you."
Derek rolled his eyes at the sarcasm. Mr. Smith walked up, and took the desk sitting across from Derek.
"I did try. You were out cold." Derek's eyes widen, he couldn't believe what he was hearing.
"Derek's what being going on at home? You have sort of been dozing off here and there this past week."
Derek didn't know what to say. His head was starting to hurt.
"Everything at home is fine." He was on the defensive. "I just have been dealing with a lot of homework that's all. Listen I have to go."
Derek stood up from his desk, and grabbed his bag.
"Listen Derek if you need to talk, I'm always here."
Derek nodded, and gave a fake smile of appreciation.
Sorry but the last thing I need is advice from my English, who trying to be cool.
Mr. Smith's eyes followed Derek as he left the room. He could tell something was up.

Derek looked at his watch, as he walked down the hall. His watch read 12:05. Lunch had started ten minutes ago. He hurried to the cafeteria.
He walked in, and the place was a mess. People were everywhere. The room felt like it was spinning, and he was becoming over whelmed. Everything sounded incoherent.
"DEREK!" A female's voice screamed. Derek looked over, and saw it was Cassie. She was waving for him to come sit with her. He took a deep breath, and headed towards her.
"Hey Derek, are you okay?"
He sat down, and started rubbing his temples.
"Yeah. I fell asleep in my English class. I missed a few of my other classes. Boy am I going to get nailed for that."
Cassie let out a small giggle.
"You want my fries?"
Derek nodded yes. She scooted them to him. Derek picked up a fry, and started to nibble on it.
"DEREK!" Growled a very angry Casey. She sat down next to him, plopping down a stack of homework in front of him.
"You missed your History, and computer class, and since we both take those classes, your teachers, thought it would be fun to take their frustration of you out on me."
Derek was laughing under his breath, he looked over at Cassie, and she was doing the same.
"Here is your homework. Next time I get stuck with this, you're going down."
Derek rolled his eyes. He picked up a fry.
"Oh really?" He took a bite out of the fry, and threw the half-eaten piece at her. She made a disgust face, and dodged it.
"Well I think I'm going to go." Cassie said standing up. She leaned over and kissed Derek's cheek. She reached in her purse, and grabbed a bottle of aspirin.
"For your headache babe." She said laying it on the table. She looked over at Casey with a phony grin. "It was nice seeing you Casey."
Casey responded with the same phony grin. "Nice seeing you too."
Cassie turned, and walked out.
Derek looked at the bottle of aspirin with confusion. I don't remember mentioning I had a headache. Maybe I did. Okay, this is weird.
Casey moved to get up, but she stumbled, and bumped shoulders with Derek. Derek felt a bolt of lighting shoot through his entire body.
Dark figure running, running fast, scared, very dark, high pitch scream!
Casey jolted to side, indicating she also felt the bolt. Derek felt drained, and tired.
"Derek did you just…shock me?"
Sounds good...I'll go with that.
"Oh yea, been working on that one all day for you," He smirked.
Casey rolled her eyes and let out a heavy sigh. She stormed off.
Derek pushed away the fries he was eating; he no longer had an appetite. However, he couldn't describe how he was feeling.
--
The bathroom doors swung open, and through them strutted, a very confident Cassie.
The first bathroom sink, mirror, was taken by Kendra. She was applying her "after lunch make-up."
Cassie took the sink next to her. She placed her purse to the side of the sink, and started washing her hands. She gave Kendra a glance out of the corner of her eyes. She didn't like Kendra. Kendra was the haughty, rich, bitchy girl that most people didn't like. However, Cassie not only didn't like her for that, she disliked her the most for having dated Derek.
Cassie dried her hands. She reached into her pants pocket, and pulled out strawberry lip-gloss. She unscrewed the top, and generously applied some to her lips. She pressed them together.
"So Kendra I hear you got the lead in the school play." She closed her lip-gloss, and slid it back into her pocket.
Kendra nodded yes.
Cassie started poofing her hair.
"It be a shame if you got a huge zit in the middle of your forehead, on opening night."
Kendra glanced at her from the corner of her eyes.
Cassie finished poofing her, she grabbed her purse, and turned from the sink.
Cassie paused as she walked pass Kendra. She bent, and whispered in her ear.
"I'm sure that won't happen."
Kendra's skin crawled with an uncomfortable feeling.
Cassie smirked and walked out. Kendra's eyes followed her as she left. As soon as she was gone Kendra pressed her face closer to the mirror looking for imperfection.
Cassie walked down the hall with a grin.
All eyes were on her.
Review please?
Have a happy new year
