Chapter 6
*Luke's P.O.V*
I walk out of the dorm and onto the grounds. I check my watch
23:50
10 minutes?! I start to panic and walk away from the school as quickly as possible and try and find a place to hide. I saw the same woods that I found the hand in but they where too far away.
Quick quick. Find somewhere to hide. I think desperately.
I find some tall bushes quite far away from the school. Now the only question was, was it far enough?
I checked my watch again
23:58
I didn't have time to think. I dove behind the bushes and waited.
I glanced around the corner of the bush and saw that there wasn't a student or teacher in sight.
I decided to risk it, after all I was hungry.
I started to walk towards the woods. They where closer now. My soft paws soundlessly hitting the ground as I started trotting towards there.
I entered into the woods and walked past all the burnt out trees. I sniffed the air and caught the scent of a rabbit, not too at away.
I start to track it. My nose following the smell of fresh pray.
I saw the rabbit in the clearing, oblivious to the danger that was lurking behind the tree, waiting for the right moment to pounce.
I slowly prowl over to the rabbit.
It finally senses the danger, but too late, as I lunge forward, my jaws clamping around it's soft neck.
I wolf down my small meal before heading off, searching for a river or small lake to wash the blood off.
I come across a small steam and wash the blood off my black snout.
I start to walk around the small forest, going to explore.
An unusual scent fills the air and I decide to follow it.
It brings me to the same place as I found the hand. No one was there to stop me this time, and I decide to explore a bit more.
I walk over to the bush which contained the hand, and look around for it.
Nothing
I walk away from that spot, because it gives me the creeps, and try and find a safe-ish place to sleep and shift.
I find a huge oak tree with a hollow area in it, and I climb inside of it, and resting my head on the moss, fall asleep.
~Le time skip~
I wake up and for a moment wonder where I am, before remembering last night, and how I fell asleep in the tree.
I get out of the tree with some difficulty, and start to walk back towards the school.
The sun hasn't quite risen yet, and if I get back quickly, I may be able to get another hour or so of sleep.
I jog up the stairs and open the door as quietly as I can, and see Liam sound asleep on his bed, white hair messed up.
I see he had his earphones in, and walk over to take them out and place them on his bedside drawer.
He looks so cute when he sleeps. I thought.
Wait what? I question myself. I wonder where that thought came from, and just brush it off and tell myself that I'm just tired.
I climb into bed with my muddy clothes still on and drift to sleep for the second time that day.
~Time skip brought to you by my organisation skills (aka non existent)~
I stretch and yawn as I sit up on my bed. I see that Liam is still asleep. I quickly get changed out of my muddy clothes into my cleaner, more presentable clothes, before going over to Liam's bed and waking him up.
"Liam, wake up, you'll be late"
"Mkay" he says sleepily before slowly sitting up on his bed.
"Where u go?" He asks
"What?"
"Where did ya go?" He says
"What do you mean?"
"Las night. U gone"
"Oh... I went on a walk" I reply uncertainly
"Why?" He asks.
"Because I felt like it." I said
"Oh. Ok." He says before fully sitting up and stretching.
"I'm going to use the bathroom. I'll leave you to get changed" I announce.
"Ok" he says
I walk into the bathroom and open my mouths to see what condition my teeth are in. I see small bits of blood staining them and grab my toothbrush to try and get rid of the blood.
I hear a creak of a door and Liam walks into the bathroom.
"Oh sorry Luke, I forgot you where in here." He says.
"It's no problem." I say.
He walks over to the sink and grabs his toothbrush.
"Luke...?"
"Hmmm?"
"Why is there a lot of blood in the sink...? Are you hurt?!" He asks.
I panic
"Errr, no? Not sure. Oh look blood???" I say in a hurry.
"What??" He asks confused.
"My gum bled?" I say, unsure
"But your ok right?" He asks
"Yep I'm totally fine!" I say, flashing him a smile before realising my mistake.
"You have blood on your teeth, are you sure your ok" he asks.
"Yea. As I said, just a bleeding gum."
"Riiight..... well as long as your ok...." he says.
"Yup I'm fine. Now shoo lemme brush my teeth in peace!" I say, ushering him out the bathroom.
I get back to furiously scrubbing my teeth, and trying to get rid of the blood. 2 minutes later I hear a knock.
"Luke can I come in. We're going to be late!" Liam says.
"Sure come in then." I say, giving up and putting the toothbrush down and going over to unlock the door.
Liam walks in and goes over to brush his teeth.
We then leave the dorm and walk down to lessons, all the while, getting an uneasy feeling that we are basing followed.

A/N. This chapter is a little shorter than usual, but at the minute I'm on holiday in Barbados and this was mostly written on the plane. If there is any mistakes, or if any of you people think there is any way to make it better PLEASE let me know.
I'll stop rambling now. Baiiiii :P
