Hey guys! I'm going to be posting one of my chapters at a time for feedback! I would love if you could give me feedback on any of them. Thank u!

"Hey Flaer where were you?"

"What?" I said confused looking up from my messy locker. I swear it's messy, no matter what I do. I tried to clean it again a month ago but it was no use. The next day it was the same. I think there might be invisible ghosts in my locker

"Where were you at lunch? You told me you were gonna sit with me so we can talk about Martin?"

This, ladies and gentlemen, is my bff Janney with her perfect body and always perfect brown curly hair up in a ponytail like always. She wore a white tank top and dark blue ripped jeans with black boots. Honestly I don't know if those are jeans because there were more holes than fabric.

Her light blue eyes pierced at me like daggers ready to strike. I figured that she would be pissed because she has a hard, and when I say hard I mean a hard crush on him. Honestly I don't know how. Except that he is rich and the hottest and most popular guy in the whole school doesn't mean all girls should be drooling over him. He is an extreme, superly jerk, he's mean to everybody and acts like he owns the world.

Yeah what can I say? The world had lost its mind.

"Oh sorry I was reading my book" whitch was true btw. Like how can I say no to a book?

"I know that you love your books and all but come on! You promised me! You know that you always keep your promises." she said and I could see she was trying to calm down

"Yes for a matter of fact I do love my books. And yes I always do but I don't see the problem here. We can just talk about him now."

I honestly don't see where the problem is. But like me, she also has anger and trust issues. The past is hard to erase sometimes.

"I'm sorry. It's just that... my parents are doing it again and it's getting to me. I'm sorry this didn't really had anything to do with you." she said dropping her voice. I could see she had tears in her eyes.

This all started when she was little, like 5 years old little. Her father and mother were constantly abusing her, gaslighting her and all those kinds of shitty stuff that shittty people do. They wouldn't really allow her to play with other kids or go outside. She was basically a prisoner with them in her own house.

And then we met in 6th grade. We went to the same school together but we never really spoke to each other. She was this lonely, isolated kid like me in the back of the class. One day she decided to come and talk to me while we were on our lunch break. We talked and she shared this story with me.

That's when we became friends. Afterwards things still weren't better for her but at least we had each other. Now she is happier and dealing with her trauma and I am-

"Hello? Did you zone out?" The bell rang. "We better go to class" said Jenn with a smile. It looks like someone shifted their mood. Good to see it working, she had been practicing

"Really? Oh.. yeah, let's go I don't want to be late for class again. " I said, got my books for math class and hurried down the corridor. There were just a few people left except me and Jenn who were running left and right for their classes.

As I was running I spotted someone. He was at the corner almost covered completely in shadows. Something about him made me stop running like I was on fire. I couldn't exactly see his face but I could make out some features like his strong jaw, his short hair and his silhouette.

There was nothing ordinary about him thought. Even tho he looks like a normal human something about his energy told me to run because he bites

But I bite harder

I stood still looking at him. I felt the hairs on my arms and neck rise in a warning but I couldn't bring myself to move. He screamed deadly, but how? It's not like he has some superpowers or something

"Flaer hello? We have to move. Why are you just staring at the wall?" said Jenn

"What?" I said turning my head to face her. And then I remembered we had math! "How much time was I staring at the wall?"

"I don't know like 5 seconds?"

5 seconds? It felt like and eternity.

"Look we have to go. " She said, shoved me by the arm and started running. The class was only a door away when the fire alarm started.
