Hey guys! Sorry for updating SUPER DUPER LATE but I just finished p.e…. so yea.. I'm redoing chapter 4 because some people have said that is was rushed and it kind of was so here goes…

Alice POV

Class ended with Dragon and I walked out of the door with my books piled my hands weighing it down. Natalie and I walked towards our other classes… three more passed until lunch. Natalie sat with her friends at a table and as I sat down next to her the 3 other girls, they introduced them to me as Joyce Brown, Megan Clark, and Kailee Robin.

"Hi nice to meet you guys." I greet.

Turns out I have a lot in common to these girls, and Megan is really funny, we've had really weird conversations together and I enjoy it here at the House of Night so far.

"Oh my goddess when I go back home I have to see my crippled brother again." Megan complained.

"Why is he crippled?" I ask.

"Cause he's in a wheelchair." Megan answers.

"Oh, that's why." I say looking at my lunch.

Kailee 's phone rang off at the time and it was Vegie Tales going off.

"Are you serious Kailee?" Natalie asks.

"What? It reminds me of my very bad childhood." She smiles.

"Oh! Speaking of ringtones guess what my brother's ringtone for me is?" Megan asks.

"What?" We say simultaneously.

"It goes: Bitch alert! Bitch alert! Don't answer, it's the bitch calling!" All of us are cracking up. We nearly spit out our drinks.

After lunch, we decided to walk around the school, with our Coach, Gucci, and Roxy bags on our shoulders, we walked and talked. Laughing and not concentrating on anything else, until something caught my eye.

A blond head of hair obviously noticeable at night was on the ground with one hand hugging his knees, and the other over his head to the boys towering over him. With his high pitched kind of voice said…

"Don't hurt me!" He screamed.

I knew instantly that it was Colt, there were a few boys making a circle around him towering over him, with them on the sidelines was of course, you guessed it, Keila Costal. Laughing, at the boy on the ground.

I couldn't do anything about it, I wanted to help but I just couldn't. Who knows what the boys and Keila could've done to me if I interfered.

After about staring at them for about what seems like a minute, Joyce notices me.

"Alice, are you ok?" she asks.

"Yea, I'm fine." I answer. Walking away from them I look back and the circle of guys, Colt was off the ground but was staring right at me, our often eye conversation was happening again. This time his eyes said. I'm fine Alice. Go on with your friends, I'll be fine.

Are you sure? Is there anything I could do to help? My eyes answered back.

No, I can take care of myself. He said his last response.

I turned around not looking back, and walked away with my friends.

The next day during classes, I noticed more girls adoring Colt. While Colt was doing his thing with the swords, he was obviously showing off to the girls.

I didn't care anymore because chances are, if I ended up going out with him, girls would hate me, and that's the last thing I want since I'm new to the House of Night. People would probably beat me up and so forth.

Ever since I got her at the House of Night, it seems that at lunch hour and the dining hall, Colt gets closer everyday. One day he would be 3 tables away from my friends and I, then the next, he'd be like 20 feet away from me and everyday he got closer and closer. I just want to stay away from him! I got so irritated one day I left 5 minutes after dinner started. I needed to clear my head.

I must've have had a angry look on my face because next thing I new, Tiari Uehara was next to me, asking what's wrong. She was a really nice third former in my vamp sociology class. She walked with me and sounded really interested into what I was saying.

"So I don't know what to do," I start telling her.

"He seems really nice but there is something about him that throws me off. On top of that, every freaking girl would hate me if he ends up asking me out." I continued.

"Well, I would just follow your heart and see where it leads you." Tiari answered.

"We seem to have these eye staring conversations, and I know what he says as he does me. It's really weird, like I said, there is just something about him." I continued.

"Besides you, has he been like, I don't know showing off to girls?" Tiari asks.

"Yea, I think so, like when he does fencing, he's really good." I answer.

"That's not a good sign. The guys that I have dated have done that and they are arrogant douchebags. They dated me to make their ex- girlfriends jealous, and goddess help them, I got pissed off. But besides like the eye contacts. I don't trust him Alice." Tiari finished.

"So I would keep an eye on him." She finishes.

Tiari and I walked passed the dining hall, and this short boy who's name was Ricky Brady I think, asked me a question.

"Are you wearing an American Eagle shirt?" He asked me.

Looking down, I wondered if he was stupid. On my brown t-shirt, it said A. EAGLE like 4 times across the shirt.

"No! I'm wearing a t-shirt with a vacuum cleaner on it." I said sarcastically.

Ricky gave me a snotty look like don't be sarcastic with me kind of look, a second later he ran off, meeting Colt, and telling him a discovery about me that he just uncovered.

So I think this version is better than the first :)… About Colt on the ground, this is a true story, and the part about the ground was true, but I had no idea what actually happened. So I'm going to leave it up to you guys to make that part whatever you want it. I'll make an explanation about It later but it won't be accurate because like I said, I don't know what happened…

Enjoy and review!
