It was during lunch. Sherry and I were sitting on our usual table. I wasn't able to talk to Betty during our one period we share together, she came in late and left as soon as the bell rang. I was positive it was to avoid me, I could swear she definitely saw me hurrying to her when the bell rang. But I was determined to talk to her after school hours whether she liked it or not.

I glanced at Britney's table and saw her sitting there with them, she was looking down at her food. I could tell something was bothering her with the way she was silently looking at it, not even eating. I sighed and looked back at my own food.

Sherry looked at me after hearing me sigh "Stop thinking about it. I am sure everything will be fine. And I am here for you. If you want I can go and talk to Betty," she suggested.

"No Sherry, it's fine." I told her.

"Or maybe we should gang her up, me and you...what do you think? I think that's what we should do, gang her up and make her confess why she is acting that way," she suggested with a serious expression and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Thank you, but no. We are no gangsters. If she doesn't want to talk about it we are not going to force it out of her. I'll try to talk to her, let's hope she will open up," I told her.

"I seriously don't understand her though. You guys have been best friends for over ten years now, no matter which problem she is going through this is no way to treat your ten years friend," Sherry said annoyed.

"Isn't this too much!? Out of all people why did it have to be Britney?" Sherry questioned. I could sense how pissed she was.

I sighed loud and shifted my eyes back to my pasta which was already cold. I didn't have appetite at all.

I looked around the cafeteria to see if I could spot Luke, seeing that he wasn't on his usual table. I didn't find him and neither his best friend, Kyle.

I then noticed that the cafeteria was filled with smoke, an unusual smoke....wait, this can't be it? This can't be that dream, can it?

Before I could register anything I saw some cooks running out of the kitchen and start screaming fire! fire! and then the fire alarm went off that instant. It was happening exactly like in my dream. I could faintly hear Sherry talking to me, I was in a daze. Seconds later she pulled me from my seat and started moving towards the exit while holding my hand tight. It was too crowded by everyone trying to go out, the whole cafeteria was filled with smokes now and fire could be seen from the other side spreading quickly. I suddenly came back to my sense and jolted back, causing Sherry to stumble backward also.

"Kaylaaa!! What are you doing Kaylaaa....we have to get out of here, come to your sense," she shouted at me.

I looked her in the eyes and unntangled my hand from hers "Betty! we have to save her. She must be here somewhere. I have to save her," I told her.

"Wha-t are you talk-ing about Kayl-a, she must have left, their table was closer to the do-or," she said while coughing. The smoke was starting to get to us.

"My dream....you go....explain...later," I told her while pushing her towards the door. I could feel her resist but I made sure she had no choice. The crowd which were trying to go out was pushing her out also. I blindly ran back to the cafeteria. I could barely see a thing in that smoke. I ran to the place I last saw Betty and I could blurry see a figure lying down coughing hard.

"Betty....Betty...can y..ou hear me? Don't worry I am here now," I told her as I went to her side and try to carry her but she was too heavy and the smoke was too much.

"Betty answer me, we need to get out of here. I am going to try to move you, now try to stand."

Betty who could barely keep her eyes open started to open her mouth and saying something. I leaned to her so that I could hear her but the only thing I heard was "y-o-u..h-u-r-t....p-a-i-n" what was she saying? she didn't make any sense. As I moved so that I can tell her that I noticed Betty's eyes completely closed. Oh no!! I looked around and noticed some objects around us were already on fire. I got into a full panic mode immediately, only then did I relise what a serious situation we were in and that we could both die in there.

"Oh my God!! Betty wake up please! We are going to die! I can't let us die like this!! It's too pitiful. We are too young. Oh my.. Oh my..." and then I suddenly remembered that that was not all I could do.

I decided to first move all the objects that was on fire around us away from us, with just one movement of my finger they flew away. I can do this.

I then made the smoke part ways around us to the direction of the exit. With my powers I tried to move Betty while I lightly put some of her weights on myself so that people won't go mad after seeing an unconcious girl moving by herself or floating herself or whatever you would call it. With in no time we were at the exit. I could see three worried faces standing there and I immediately recognised them despite my vision not being completely clear at the moment, they immediately ran to us. Kyle took Betty on his hands and took her away from the entrace so that she can get a fresh air. I noticed neither ambulance nor fire truck was there yet.

"Are you okay?" Luke asked worried. He tried to reach for my hand but he immediately backed away and put his hands in his pockets. Sherry immediately ran to my side and hugged me while patting my shoulder and I immediately felt relaxed.

"Are you hurt somewhere?" Luke asked again while examining me with his eyes if I had any external injuries.

'Yeah, I'm hurt you idiot! I am hurt with the way you are treating me. Do I have some contagious disease I don't know about,' I wanted to shout and tell him that but instead I opted to a simple no. As if Sherry read my mind that I don't want to be in his presence anymore she assisted me away from him towards where Kyle laid Betty while they wait for an ambulance. I could hear him talking in small voices with...wait.. Is Betty already awake? I splinted to them as fast as I could and went to hug Betty.

"Do you know how worried I was? I thought I was going to lose you, I..." I was cut off by Betty who was trying to push me away, as I was in a daze as to why she was acting this way she used more force and pushed me away. I almost fell over if it wasn't for Sherry who balanced me back.

To say that I was pissed off would have been an understatement "What's really wrong with you!?? I just saved your life for god's sake. You could have atleast pretended that you are thankful. This is no way to treat your savior!!" I shouted angrily at her. How dare she!?

"I need to rest," that's all she said before turning to the other side so she won't be facing us anymore. Kyle took off his jacket and put it on Betty, he then turned to us.

"Sorry Kayla, she is not herself right now. Let's give her more time. I am really really thankful you went back for her and I am sure she is also," Kyle said looking apologetic and I couldn't help but give him a small forced smile.

Kyle is a nice guy, he has always been too nice. And out of the three of them he was the only one left who didn't treat me that bad. It's not like he hadn't been avoiding me or trying to not be in any contact with me but atleast he did it nicely, if that even makes sense.

"Let's go," I told Sherry who immediately took my hand and guided me away. I needed to get out of there, away from them. I needed a break. Even if it was just for a while but I needed it.

"Have you been avoiding me?" I heard that annoying high pitched voice again. What a timing! I turned around to see Britney and her minions, a cast around Britney's arm, her minions were holding all her things.

"Do you think I have no better things to do?" I asked rolling my eyes.

"Now now, Is that a way to act towards your saviour? Shouldn't you be thanking me?" she demanded.

"My what now?" I asked in disbelief. Is this girl sane? Sherry had the same questioning look on her face. She has also never been a fan of Britney and I could see she was trying very hard to not give her a piece of her mind.

"Mhmm savior. How else do you call a person who saved you from weeks of detention or suspension. I think that's the right term," she answered with what I think she was trying to pull off as a smirk.

Britney made a report that she fell on her own and broke her arm, that's what she was referring to. Come to think of it she could have easily lied that I pushed her or anything and that would have gotten me detention or suspension but then that would be a lie because I didn't do anything, nothing that she knew of. Or so I thought.

"You...do you want the other hand broken too? You don't think one is enough yet, do you?" I asked with a small voice and an innocent smile while taking small threatening steps towards her. Her eyes immediately widened and she had a look of terror on her face. She immediately took big steps backwards before she completely turned and sprinted away from me without saying another word. Her minions followed suit. I smiled with satisfaction. I didn't think that it would actually work but it did. For some reasons Britney was thinking that I was the one behind her falling. I turned to Sherry who was smiling at me widely and I couldn't help but returned it.

"That's my girl!" she said proudly.

We flipped our hairs and walk away with smiles on our face.

'At least one thing went right today.'
