I wake up with a weight over my stomach and a nuzzling sensation on my neck. I turn my head slightly and see a sleeping Luke cuddled up to me.

I slowly move his arm from my stomach and move his head away from my neck and onto the pillow that he was supposed to be on. I look over at a slightly disturbed looking Luke. He looked so innocent it was stunning.

Why didn't I just remember that I had a key?! I walk over to the drawer and looked for the blasted key... The thing was... It wasn't there. MOTHER! She must've been in on it and took it while she took out my pills.

My alarm suddenly goes off, blasting "All the Small Things from Blink 182" Shit! School! I lung at my phone and switch it off squinting over at a still sleeping Luke. I sigh once I see that he's still sleeping and my head falls onto my arms.

I get up and go take a brisk shower. When I get out I walk out of the bathroom silently, tip towing towards my closet as I eye Luke that's now sleeping on his back. I walk into my closet and gasp when I see that Laya wasn't kidding when she said she was going to buy me new underwear... Fuck.

I put on the least uncomfortable looking Lingerie that just so happens to be black with red bows and details. I then put on my black ripped skinny jeans and then looked for my new dragon shirt Laya got me, but I remembered it hanging over my computer's desk chair, so I exited the closet carefully.

I moved slowly towards my shirt, tip towing. I pull it over my head and adjust it to make sure the Lingerie didn't show. I walk over to the make-up section of the room and put on eyeliner and light lip gloss that made my skin look really tanned, although I'm never in the sun EVER. I then slip on my leatherjacket, I feel naked without a jacket on.

I then brush my hair quickly and tie it in a high ponytail, letting my blonde fringe in my face. I then put on a spikey leather bow on the start of my ponytail. I put on my heeled combat boot. I move over to my phone and slump over on the bed looking at the time and checking some stuff.

"Good Morning," I jump as I hear Luke's voice. "Hi," I say awkwardly. "Your bed is so comfortable... I never want to leave. But I must! I've been laying here awake for hours..." he drawls out smirking at the expression of my face.

The door unlocked and my door opens. I see my mother's happy face "Breakfast's ready," she beamed and I quickly shuffled out of my room, giving Luke a quick glare before I exit.

I run downstairs, but get distracted when Luke runs past me fully clothed. HOW THE HELL?! Gross! He never showered! He plopped down next to Calum and Michael... Yay... all we know need is Ashton and I'm completely outnumbered.

I sit and grab a plate as the boys joke just until I sat down completely, because all attention was on me now. I look down the whole time as I take the bacon in my hand and an apple off the counter as I walk to the door yelling a 'BYE MOM' before exiting, grabbing my backpack and slinging it over my shoulder.

I hear large and swift footsteps behind me, and soon Michael stands next to my with his food also still in his hands and his backpack slung over his shoulder lazily like mine.

"Sorry about us locking Luke in your room for the second time..." he apologizes. "The first time it was just to make him all shy and awkward. Also to embarrass him," Michael chuckles. "The second time it was your mother's idea, she said something about 'The one...' I didn't really know if it was a sentence or an accusation because I zoned out and Calum doesn't talk about it," he says.

"Can we go back to the house now...? Ashton's picking us up... And that includes you!" he says excitedly as he takes my arm and dragged me back and towards Ashton's awaiting car... lovely...

When I got to the car I see all the guys in it, along with an unhappy looking Laya who is sitting on a very pleased looking Michael's lap, who got here before me because he ran and I obviously didn't give a damn, so I took my precious time.

"About time! I thought I was going to have to drive over to you so you could get in!" Ashton playfully scolds. I shrug and see that Nyx is occupying the front seat and everyone is cramped into the car. I also spot a tense looking Lexi who's sitting on a confused Calum's lap. And then there's Luke... fuck my life.

"You're going to have to sit on Luke's lap," Ashton says grinning like the idiot he is. I look at Luke who looks quite awkward right now. I plop myself down on his lap ignoring the weird feeling in my stomach and chest as Ashton starts up the car.

"I don't understand why Nyx can't sit on Michael's lap. She's his sister!" Laya complains once again, just as Michael wraps his arms around her waist, making her get annoyed and teasing her.

"Michael, stop it or I'm turning this car around, young man!" Ashton jokes. "Please do, I don't wanna go to school! They'll just bully me again!" Michael jokes along, pretending to sound like a nerd. Ashton giggles and glares at him through the rear-view mirror.

I role my eyes and just sit there stiff. Luckily mom told me that she got me my bike and from tomorrow on I can drive that to school until I'm 18 and get my own car. I had a car but its back in America; you can't drive in Australia if you're under 18, unfortunately...

We enter the school and Ashton parks the car in front of the building. I open the door and rush out along with a flushed Laya that's on my heels.

I get a few looks from guys that I have never seen... Damn, am I that ugly? Some of them are gaping at us and others just look confused. We walk into the building and start looking for the main office.

Suddenly Ashton pops up from behind us with Luke "Sorry, we'll take you guys to the office. The other guys are on their way, but they have short legs so... yeah!" Ashton chimes up.

I walk faster along with Laya and the guys start to speed walk to keep up "Why are you guys in such a hurry? It's not like the school is on fire," Ashton jokes trying to lighten the mood.

"Not yet..." I mumble as I see the main office and jog up to it along with Laya who looks tired. We close the door before the guys could get in and get our stuff.

I check my classes and see that I have English first... Yay... Then I check the last period which I have Art, now that deserves an applause.

We both walk out of the office to only find all 4 boys standing there while Nyx and Lexi have a conversation behind them.

I try to sneak away with Laya, but with my 'luck' Ashton pushes through the guys and throws both his arms over our shoulders and walks with us- which apparently makes everyone walk with us! Ashton must be the heart of the group. If I make his dislike me, he might leave me alone.

"Let's see where your lockers are," Ashton says grabbing the papers. "Nice you got lockers next to each other... Even better! You guys have the 2 lockers next to all of ours!" he exclaimed happily.

"I have a question..." I say monotone. He hummed in response "How the hell are you so happy all the time...?" I ask. Everyone laughs except Ashton who knows what I mean and gives me a sad smile.

I just look ahead of me and listen to them rant on about nonsense that I have nothing to do with right until we reach our lockers.

I place in the combinations and place my books inside. I look up and feel something cold go through me. This bloody school is full of ghosts!

Let me explain; hence the fact that I cry golden tears as a dragon, the gold washes over my eyes and I'm able to see things normal people can't. Like ghosts and other people's imaginary friends, or in some cases their imaginary demons. I can see which people are mentally ill, or who's pregnant, I can even see which people are gay just by looking at them and seeing their aura's- Yes I see them and not only feel them.

I close my locker and give Laya the look. You know that look you give your best friend in awkward situations that looks like you're trying to say 'RUN!'... Well this is that time.

Just as we all turn to walk away, Laya and I stay at the back of the group and when all of them are in front of us, we jolt the other way.

I can't take so many people around me at once... I feel trapped... Like there's a bunch of dead bodies crushing be down to the floor, suffocating me, and only in a matter of time I'll drown in their blood. Yes I'm that depressed.

I told you that I feel Aura's and it's true, so let me tell you how my aura feels. I can't see my aura if I don't want to and if I do I have to look in a mirror. But I can tell you, those who felt my aura describes it as cold and depressing.

Just as we make it far enough I pop out my phone and earphones along with Laya and we play our different songs. Laya is that girl that listens to One Direction and Justin Bieber, while I would listen to Sleeping with Sirens and Marilyn Manson.

We are two different people, yet the same person. Laya is the only one that understands how I feel; she too has lost her father. He was a fireman and ever since she's hidden her depression with smiles and kindness, where I didn't hide it so well. My depression became my life style and I don't hide it anymore, but I hide my insanity extremely well- unless I listen to Marilyn Manson on repeat... That'll fuck anyone up.

We walk to our English class and sit down in the very back where the teacher said no one sat. Apparently the teacher has photographic memory and knows where all her students sit... That freaked me out VERY much.

We sat in silence as I closed my eyes and listened to 'Sweet Dreams- Marilyn Manson' I adore the song and it gives me goose bumps just listening to it.

I am snapped out of my trance as I hear a bunch of tapping on my desk. There in front of me stood an over exited looking girl with red hair and a bunch of freckles, she's also holding a pink cupcake in her other hand that has a massive bite taken from it, now that I notice... there's a bit on pink frosting on the top of her lip. Behind her is a blond girl with a leatherjacket, combat boots, a shirt with a snowflake on, white ripped skinny jeans and a black bow in her hair.

"Can I help you, Cupcake Girl?" I ask her taking out one of my earphone pieces. "Yes, Hello I'm Nicole and this is Maxine, you seem like your someone that could use a hug and something sweet so I brought you a cupcake, hold on!" she says over excitedly, and takes a blue cupcake from her bag and places to sparkly cupcake on my desk.

I take a frightened look at the cupcake with my eyes and look up at the jittery girl, making my eyes grow bigger. "Come on... Tell me what you think!" she exclaims. "I think your scary_" I stop when Laya elbows me in the ribs "-Nice... Scary nice," I finish.

I take a look at the cupcake and pick it up. I examine it closely and unpeel the wrapper, sniffing the cupcake "What did you do with it...?" I ask unsure. That... was a very bad idea to ask...

"OH MY GOD! You sounded and looked just like Brent Rivera right there!!!" She squalls and jumps up and down like a crazy person. Meanwhile the blond is just watching us with an amused expression. "Yoh, Snowflake, What the fuck is wrong with your friend?" I ask frightened.

"She has a sugar rush..." she says amused. The red head jumps in front of me and looks at the cupcake and then back at me.

I lick the sugary starkly frosting in distaste, but the flavour makes up for its girly appearance. I lick my lips and take a small bite from the cupcake and feel something strange going on... Something inside my chest is trying to break through, but I don't trust it... I don't even know what the hell it is!

"What the fuck is in that cupcake?!" I say in pain. Red head panics and looks at the blond "It's not supposed to hurt, it's just a make happy spell, I swear!" she panics. She's a fucking fairy!

"You idiot! To make all happy in a person it needs to set free all the bottled emotions! You don't know what kind of emotions she's hiding!" Blondie yells at Ginger.

I suddenly feel numb and lifeless as I shake violently. The demons I tried so hard to hide are rising up from the silence that once lingered in my head, but is now utter hell. All the bad that were said to me have been unleashed in my head.

I feel hands on my waist that lifts me up in the air and into a warm chest. "Move!" I hear a voice yell. The cupcake fell from my hand and I am now apparently flying to some kind of place... Fuck it... I'm dead.

I don't know how long it was but I see a faint flashing in my eye as my eyes start to open and my stomach starts to feel sick. I jump up from wherever I was and threw up my guts into a trash can that was held out for me.

The familiar feeling of laziness and carefree lingers back along with my depression... unfortunately... I sit up with help of some strong arms.

"Luke, you can go to class now. Calum, could you stay and help her to her next class if she's willing to go?" the feminine voice says.

I couldn't hear more because I continued to vomit. I opened my eyes to see some blood... Alright... I'm dying. "Take these sweetheart, you'll feel better," the lady says handing me some pills. I put them in my mouth and see a glass moving towards my face along with a hand that's lifting my face.

I look up to see a concerned looking Calum helping me drink the god forsaken water. And this time... I don't see my dad... My insanity... it's been released by that damned cupcake! Halleluiah! Maybe I could actually get along with my cousin.

Maybe I should ask Cupcake for the recipe...? Maybe it could get rid of my depression. Calum's arm wrapped around my waist and helps me get on my feet. I start feeling a lot better, but I have a large headache.

The nurse hands me some other pills as Calum helps me gulp it down. "We think you might have had an allergic reaction to the cupcake," the nurse tells me. "Yeah, I guess..." I say. I'm not allergic to anything, but I really want more of those cupcakes... rule nr 1, don't eat it at school.

I then feel a lot better as Calum helps me to...? "What period is it?" I ask Calum. "Uh... It's... Spanish, WE have Spanish together (AN: I'm making the classes up as I go, Australians don't have Spanish classes)

Spanish was a horrible class because I had to be introduces, and to top that, the bloody girls kept glaring at me until I said that my last name was Hood. Apparently Calum is REALLY bloody popular.

Apparently Calum is in the schools soccer team and is the captain so he's a fricken jock... GREAT! Or nah... And Ashton is the popular guy that's in music class and plays every instrument in the room, also he's a football/Rugby player, and is also the 'hottest guy in school' apparently him and Luke are the top hot guys. The hottest guys in school WON'T LEAVE ME ALONE!

Luke is apparently the musician hotty and is also in music class. He has the vocals that make all the girls 'swoon' Bloody hell this school will be the death of me. My first day and I've already been poisoned... lovely...

Michael also wasn't lying when he said that he was a bad boy, apparently he's the school's biggest bad boy... It's really hard to believe that the guy that reminds me of baby kittens is the schools bad boy... What's this school made of? Candy hearts and rainbows?!

The bell goes and I'm the first one out and also the first one trapped, because there's someone hugging me... no.... suffocating me in his chest and it's the noddle legged skyscraper...Luke.

"Release!" I command, but apparently he doesn't obey like my dogs back at home... I'll have to train him... I then decide to scramble out of his grasp, but I fail as he pulls me away and looks at me strangely as I glare at him.

He pretends to dust off the 'dust' from my shoulders and stand there looking awkward. Calum just grabs our arms and takes us to our lockers. It's now lunch so we get to eat... Yay!

When we entered the cafeteria I was completely and utterly confused as we went to get our food. So what I think is going to happen is... That Luke will go sit with the populars... and Calum will go sit with the soccer jocks. So I will make my way to Laya who's sitting with Lexi and Nyx, by the misfits. Seems like a good plan.

I get me some mash potatoes and leave it at a bunch of mash potatoes. I quickly leave both the boys looking confused and go sit next to Laya and the misfits... goody... more people... how... Utterly annoying.

"Hey Mia!" Lexi chirps up. "Chirp, chirp," I say as I look at my plate. Laya takes a bunch of spices and peppers out of her purse and hands it to me. "My god, you just saved me!" I thank her and pour the stuff on the food and eat... scrumptious.

"So Laya... My brother seems to enjoy your company..." Nyx wiggles her eyebrows as I choke on my food and look at her and then at Laya. "Ew..." I say with a mouthful of food. Everyone bursts out laughing, even Laya who looked totally flustered.

I continue to enjoy my food "And Mia... you seem to have caught the eye of a specific blond," Lexi wiggle her eyebrows at me. I frown at her and then cock an eyebrow. I look around the cafeteria for any blond person looking at me while I was eating... fucking creep?!

The table bursts out laughing again "No you Noob, she means Luke!" Nyx laughed as she slaps her forehead. "Luke's watching me eat...? Jesus I thought he was creepy before..." I trail off.

"Oh my god... Your innocents... It makes me feel like a slut!" Nyx says sounding so envious. "Mia, she thinks Luke like likes you," Laya explains slowly while I was drinking my water.

Instead of doing a spit-take on the freckled guy in front of me I ended up getting the water out my nose... Luckily only the table noticed this and started laughing really badly while I sat the holding my nose and glaring at every single one of them "It's not funnyyyy!" I whine.

Laya takes out a napkin from her purse and hands it to me. "I swear if the next thing you take out of that bag is a Ewok then I'll scream," I say dead serious. I clean myself and finish my food in record time. She purposely takes out a tiny Ewok key-chain and I glare at her and everyone laughs.

I then spot the red head Cupcake and blond Snowflake heading this way looking worried. Cupcake shoves the freckles faced guy away and sits in front of me with Snowflake next to her.

"Oh my golly I'm so sorry about the cupcake fiasco! I didn't mean to! I just thought you needed to be happier!" she cries. Laya glares at her. "One question..." I ask looking at her in the eye "Can I have the recipe...? Or do you have another one, I kinda need at least one more and hopefully it will take my depression away too, cause it took my insanity," I tell her and try to smile at the end.

She grabs my face in between her hands and squishes it "Don't ever... do that again..." she tells me and gives me a perfect smile.

"But... no... I don't have more and I will bring you another tomorrow morning!" she chirps and hops off along with Snowflake. The freckled guy returns to his spot.

"Tweet..." I say randomly. I actually listen to the conversation and smile now and then, that was until I felt the table dip. Who the hell is that fat?! I look to my right to see this massive guy that most probably uses steroids, looking at me.

"Hey, sweetheart... You know... There should be a sign on my dick," he says sounding all cocky. "What...?" I ask clearly not getting where this conversation in going. "Yeah, it should say choking hazard!" he says grinning at me and fist pumping his friend next to him.

"Wait... Isn't that a label they put on small objects?" I ask grinning. Apparently the entire cafeteria was listening and everyone burst out laughing and I could see Calum nodding in improvement, Ashton giggling, Michael grinning like a boss and Luke holding his face while laughing.

The guy looks flustered and stomps off out of the cafeteria. "Just ignore him, that's Zander by the way and his minion Damon," Nyx say shrugging them off. They're practically married," the freckled guy says laughing.

I take in his appearance and he looks like a Goth to me. He's got thick eyeliner under his eyes and he's pretty pale, but his freckles kind of cover that though. He's wearing all black and his nails are black.

'He's satanic Mia, stop staring its rude,' Laya speaks in my mind through our link. I decide to look around the cafeteria and catch Luke already looking at me, making me do a double take. He blushes and looks down. I glare at him and look around again.

I find Michael scoping the cafeteria and when he catches me looking I cock an eyebrow at him and he smiles shaking his head mouthing 'Misfit' at me, so I playfully glare at him and mouth 'man whore' and smirk as I see him glaring at me.

It's true, he hands out with all the bad boys and they are all man whores. I scope the cafeteria and decide to make side notes to myself.

I see a table full of fake blond girls that laugh obnoxiously and dress slutty, but don't seem to care or pick up dudes. I see those passing cigarettes secretly under the table and categorise them as 'Soon to be Pregnant Teenagers', in other words (Drunk Slutty High Bitches)

I look over at Calum's table and see him looking worried that I chose the misfits table. I categorise his table as the athletic table since they're all really fit and skinny, plus they're eating all the healthy foods from the cafeteria. (Fitness freaks)

I look at Luke's table and see that they're all the "Hot Guys" but for some reason Ashton isn't sitting with Luke. I categorise Luke's table as (The Hot Wanna Be's)

I look over at Ashton's table which is the Football/Rugby Jocks (AN: Imma just say football) and name them...wait for it... (Friendly Jocks)... Duh. They don't seem bad they just seem way to fucking friendly... dumb asses. They actually help girls and guys with problems and their not dumb actually... well Ashton seems smart enough so...

Then there's a table full of "Pretty Boys" with school jerseys on that also look like Jocks, but these are the type of jocks you get in America... Ass holes that think they can do what they want and they're rich daddies will get them out of trouble every time.

The difference between the two jock tables is that Ashton's table worked hard to get where they are and these one bought their way in with money they're rich family's have.

I then see the table full of cheerleaders with perfect hair and caked up faces that aren't eating, but drinking some type of shit smoothie that probably have some type of make shift skinny shit in it. So I shall Call them (The Bitch Squad)

I get interrupted by the fucking bell ringing right next to me so I clawed my nails into the table and growled softly. The guy in front of me looked amused "It sounds like someone's inner Demon is digging its way to the surface," he jokes and the table laughs.

"You won't be laughing when it mutilates you and serves you up for tomorrow's lunch...Yummy mystery meat..." I threaten him but he grins at me happily. "I'm going to like you..." He says and walks away. "And I'm going to kill you..." I mumble and get up.
