Watched The Fault in Our Stars a few days ago and I cried a lot. Did you guys watch it too? It was so funny, sweet, cute, bitter and sad. :') Definitely must prepare a box of tissue the next time I watch a sad romance movie. Hehe.

And aaaaaaarrrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhhh... I'm having a mind block right now. Really hate this. D: Let's hope I survive through this chapter. I'll try my best to squeeze ideas out of my brain. (I know, the chapters before this was quite boring D:)

Enjoy and look forward to the next chapter~


First period, which was homeroom, passed really quickly. But it wasn't because I slept through it. Mrs. Brown was making some announcements but I wasn't really listening to her. I was too busy talking to Aiden to even noticed how fast the time passes.

"You know what, I realized that I haven't properly introduce myself," Aiden said after I sat down. I dumped my bag on the table and turned to look at him.

"I'm Aiden Larson. So, do you like Forks?" His family owned Larson's Hideout? Oh, that explains why his girlfriend could saunter into the shop like it actually belonged to her.

"Not bad," I replied. He shook his head slowly while staring at me.

"Liar." He smiled in that sexy smile that immediately spread goose bumps all over my skin. I bet all the girls felt this way whenever he did that. I flicked a sideways glance at him, one brow raised. "I'm not lying."

"Yes, you are. It's written all over your face."

"No, I'm not."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes." His eyes stared into mine intensely. I could tell that he wasn't going to let this go.

I sighed in defeat. "I miss Florida a lot," I admitted. I miss my home, my family, my girlfriends, the clear blue sky and a lot of other stuff.

"I bet you do. But I actually think there's more." It wasn't a question. He said it as though he knew exactly what I was going through. My jaw hardened instantly.

"Nope, there's nothing else." I replied him, my tone a little harsh. No way was I going to tell him anything and how would he even understand? He was just a guy that I met a couple of days ago. Not a childhood friend or anything else. Why should I tell him anything more?

Probably sensing my sudden discomfort, he stayed silent. We stared forward and I pretended to be listening to whatever Mrs. Brown was saying. It wasn't helping though. There was this really awkward silence between us.

At some point of time, he turned to me suddenly and launched into another conversation with me. It was completely on a different subject than before...but I welcomed it gladly.

"Come to Larson's Hideout and try the new breakfast set. I came up with the idea..." He went on talking. I hesitated. Should I? Or should I not? Yikes yikes yikes. Well, there's no harm going to his cafe, right? I ended up agreeing to him and telling him how much I love his family's cafe. At least there was something in this town that I looked forward to going to.

The bell rang loudly, interrupting our conversation. I grabbed my bag and picked up my timetable. I have no idea where to go next-

"Let's go, I'll bring you to your next class." Aiden stood up and walked ahead, not hearing any of my refusals. I followed behind him closely, albeit reluctantly. The people around us were already shooting us curious looks. But Aiden didn't seem to notice anything. He brought me to Biology class and we parted. I was extremely thankful to him.

In Biology, my partner was a very nice girl called Brynn Mitchell. We clicked straight away. She was super cool and I felt really comfortable around her. Her silky long dark brown hair with caramel highlights was pulled back into a ponytail. Her nails were painted in different stripes of colors and her toned thighs revealed how athletic she was. Besides, she was as tall as me! Not many girls were five feet and seven inches tall, unlike us.

We even have the same class for English and we sat together again. A couple of guys and girls turned around to ask me questions about Florida and myself. Perhaps sitting with Brynn made people feel less awkward around me, the new girl. I answered them as honest as I could.

When she invited me to join her and her friends for lunch, I agreed readily.

"Raine, this is Lisa and Melinda." She introduced her friends. Melinda smiled warmly at me. Lisa dropped a bottle of water that she was holding and gasped at the sight of me.

"Oh my god, is this her?" She skittered closer to me to take a good look at me. Her eyes scanned me from head to toe and repeated the same thing again.

"What magazine are you featured in?" She asked finally. I blinked at her in surprise, and then I laughed while shaking my head. But I was pretty sure she was just joking with me.

At least, I thought, school didn't seem to be as bad as I thought.


"Someone, please..." I pounded on the door as hard as I could, crying for someone to come.

"You know, no one can hear you from here."

Knife glinting in the dark, someone stepped forward...

...and I screamed loudly.

I jolted awake in bed, my forehead slicking with sweat and my fingers digging into my covers. I shuddered involuntarily. It was raining heavily outside and the raindrops hit my window nosily.

How long...how long has it been since I last dreamed of this? Why did it come back?

My hands reached out to turn on the bed lamp. The soft orange light illuminated my room and comforted me. My digital clock told me that it was only four in the morning. I groaned and grabbed my mp3 player from the table. Plugging in my earpiece and blasting the music into my ears loudly, I huddled under the covers and shut my eyes. All of this was to keep my fear and the irritating sound of raindrops away.

But I couldn't sleep even after two hours have passed. Not after that frightening dream.

And so, I got up and decided to go to school early. I drove my new car there. Well, it wasn't that new since Uncle John bought it from me from his friend. But anyway, it was my first car and it was cute because I love the color a lot, which was baby blue.

It was really quiet and there were only a few people around at school. I walked across the parking lot and headed towards the cafeteria since I didn't know where else to go. I shivered slightly because of the chilly air in the early morning.

"Hey."

I stopped walking when I heard the voice. Shocked, I turned around slowly.

Standing there, looking absolutely pretty as always, was someone whom was the last person that I ever wanted to see. Wearing her heels and a super tight outfit, she folded her arms and looked at me.

"Can I have a word with you, Raine Anderson?" Tessa smiled dangerously at me.
