Chapter 9

Abigail's p.o.v;

While I was in the class, I was thinking about the brothers I met two different times. How can they be so different from one another? One is totally opposite from each other. One is popular, likes to be surrounded by people and the other hates being popular and likes to be in smaller circles. It came as surprising since they dont have similar facial features either.

Luna poked me and said, "Mr Brett is calling you."

I got up from my place and looked at Mr Brett.

Mr brett, "Did you become dumb all of a sudden?"

"No, sir."

"What are you thinking so deep that you couldn't hear me?"

"I'm sorry, sir."

"Alright," he says, "go back to your seat." He walks out of the room and into another classroom.

I asked Luna, "Did Sebastian say anything about the photography class that it is today?"

"No, why?"

"nothing."

I walked out of the class while Luna said, "We still have class with Mr Bouchard. where are you leaving?"

"I'll be back."

Luna, "Okay, hurry up since your name is in the beginning."

"I'll try to." And walked out of the classroom.

I started walking down to the library.

Once I got inside the library, I saw Aiden reading a book in his hands.

I walked to him and asked, "Can I have a minute?"

He looks up at me and puts his book on the table, "Sure."

I walked over to him and sat next to him.Sorry for interrupting your reading, but I wanted to ask about something. it's been in my mind since i've known you're two brothers."

"What is it?"

"Mike said some things to me like spirit walkers this and that. They shouldn't talk to humans and stuff. Is that really true?"

'I know Aiden isn't going to lie to me.'

He smiled and said, "I won't." And continued,

"Yeah that's not just any spirit walkers, they're the ones who have power and they are very dangerous. Even though I'm part of them, I kinda don't like it."

"And the thing they shouldn't talk about with humans..."

"Hey, are you upset that I'll stop talking to you?" I didn't think he'd ask me.

he said after patting my head, "Don't worry. I won't stop talking to you. if that's what you wanted to hear from me."

I turned away and smiled to myself.

I stood up and said, "Well, I'll then head to my class since I got the answer for my doubt."

"Did you come here all the way to ask me that?"

i thought, 'If you're hearing this, it's a yes.'

While I was about to leave, he shouted, "I heard it."

the librarian asked him to keep silent which made me laugh.

When I came back to the class, Mr Bouchard was attending. Since my name starts with A , I lost it. I walked to my desk with a wide grin on my face.

Luna asked me, "What did you do?"

"What did I do?" I asked her back.

"You look happy. Where did you go?"

"Nothing. just took a walk in the hallway."

While I was listening to Mr Bouchard's class, I saw Mike giving me intense eyes. What's with his stare?

After my class ended, Emma came to me and asked, "Are you free this weekend? shall we go out?"

Emma's been asking me out for a while now so I'm not sure why she'd be interested in going on with me even though we stopped hanging out together but I accepted anyway, because it's Friday so that means I don't have to worry about getting homework done, and it's also Saturday, meaning I can take advantage of it.

I said, "Yeah. let's go."

"When your classes end, don't forget to wait for me in front of the main building."

She said goodbye and then walked away quickly.

After agreeing to go out with Emma, I thought, 'Should I make a mistake?'

It's been a week since I went out with her and we've been apart since then. Not that I don't want to see her but I was afraid something would happen that I wouldn't be able to handle if it did. That night was one of those nights where we ended up having trouble when her friends made fun of me being alone.

Even after it's been a month since I joined Winchester school, I only talk to a few people. it's not my mistake though. I've been like this all this time. After getting bullied in middle school, I never tried to befriend anyone. I was scared they might hate me because of the bullying incident. I was always alone. At least here I have a friend, Emma. She's always nice to me and she makes me feel special. It was only her friends who made me uncomfortable. i thought if i stay away from her, i won't end up in trouble but i made a mistake by thinking like that.

When the class ended, Mr Gonzalo called me to his office.

When I got there, he asked, "How's the new school for you? Have you adapted to it?"

"I will, Sir."

"Looks like you're doing every assignment and project on time. Good. Now, I want you to do a favour for me."

"Yes, sir?"

He gave me a paper and said, "Give this to Aiden Whitlock, representative of the junior year for me."

When I received it from him, he asked, "His class is on the second floor, main building."

"Yes, sir."

I walked out of his office and headed to the main building. This is my second time coming here. Since senior year is only having werewolves in their class, I hate coming here again.

As I got to Aiden's class, I looked for him. While I was looking for him, someone tapped from behind. I turned to take a look at it. It's the person who was talking with Aiden that day. I couldn't remember his name.

he asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"Aiden..."

"Why are you looking for him?"

I showed the paper which Mr Gonzalo gave me while saying, "Mr Gonzalo asked me to give this to Aiden."

He took it from me and said, "I'll give it to him. you can leave."

I nodded and walked out of there. Why was he so rude? While I was stepping down the stairs, I accidentally bumped into someone. He helped me to stand and asked, "Why are you always bumping into me?"

i saw Aiden is the one who i got bumped into. "I'm sorry."

he asked, "What are you doing here?"

"To find you."

"What?"

"I mean... Mr Gonzalo asked me to give some paper to you."

He looked at my hands and asked, "Where's it?"

"Your friend took it from me. He said he'll give it to you directly. if you go to your class, he'll give that to you."

He held my hand and started walking towards his class and stopped in front of his class.

I asked him, "What are you doing?"

He called out to the friend who took the paper from me and asked him, "Where's the paper she gave?"

After receiving the paper from him, he said to him, "If she wants to give something to me, she will give it to me. Directly. did you understand?"

he gave a stare at me and nodded his head and went back into his class.

I asked, "Why did you do that?"

"Hereafter don't give anything to anyone. understand?"

I nodded and asked, "Is that paper important?"

He smiled at me and said, "Yes." but I heard, 'no' through my mind.

"What do you mean by no?"

"Did you hear that? actually, I'm..."

I smiled and said, "It's fine. I get it."

"to be honest, I didn't mean that..."

Before he finishes, I interrupted, "Aiden, you're making it worse by explaining it." And smiled at him.

"Mike asked me to keep it a secret that he's talking to me. But you're talking to me right in front of your friends and everyone. Don't you care about the status your brother is speaking about?"

"I'm already a loner. Why should I hang on to some status and be a loner more?"

"You're talking like you don't have any friends."

"I don't. The ones I'm hanging around are my classmates. Not my friends."

"You ask me to make friends but here you are. Worse than me. At Least i got Luna from my class."

"Why didn't you try it for yourself? Befriend someone you like."

"I think I'm already doing it right now."

I let out a smile and said, "You really know how to make girls feel shy, right?"

"Are you shy right now?"

"Wasn't it obvious? I can't believe I'm getting shy because of a werewolf."

"What do you have against our kind to make you this disgusted?"

"I have to get back to my class. Bye."

While I was walking away from him, he thought, 'Are we friends?'

I turned to him and showed him a thumbs up and thought in my mind, 'Yeah!' and continued walking to my class.
