Mr. Johnson's voice was drowned by the sound of her own heartbeat, beating increasingly against her chest. The intensity that she felt caused her leg to bounce repeatedly as a nervous habit.

She's surprised that she didn't had any sort of breakdown at all since is morning.

Liam was concerned for her. He knew little about what happened earlier today and wanted to speak to her about it but she was avoiding everyone, including her sister.

Amber though chosen to say nothing to the pack. She felt it wasn't in her position to say anything unless Lea wanted so.

And he's hated how everything's been drifting down hill ever since the night of the supermoon.

''Lea!''

She looked up at her teacher with the same solemn expression she held since last night.

''Can you tell me-''

''Mr. Johnson, I'm sorry to interrupt but is there any history, maybe mythology about Ramsey's?''

Mr. Johnson was a man who clearly and shamelessly had a mythology fettish. He was a substitute that had taken over Mr. Yukimura's spot and it was hard to believe that she actually missed a teacher.

Liam looked at her utterly dumbfounded. He doesn't have the slightest clue of where she was coming from with this.

But of course Lea did.

''Ah, now that's an interesting topic. Centuries ago, the original Ramsey family started as a family of four. Two loving parents and two equally loving children. But an addition was added to the family. Leah Nicole Ramsey-''

Lea's heart dropped to the pit of her stomach.

''Of course it was good, having a new child in the house to bring in fresh perspectives, but there was times where things happened. Bad things. Leah practically grew up to be a sin to society, causing trouble unintentionally.

This addition, a female to be exact; was stated to be the most beautiful sight in the room. But once made contact, you'd be bidden with the worst luck with everything tumbling down right before you're eye's. And it wasn't just for the people around, she was included as well. I would say it was more of a butterfly effect.

One incident lead to another and it resulted for her entire family to be murdered. She was the only Ramsey left. Though she continued this generation, the luck supposingly to be passed on.''

Lea's eyebrows closed in from confusion. ''How could she have continue the generation if she was full of bad luck?''

He opened his arms. ''Love. Love, emotions is what either makes or breaks a human's sanity. Thus had love made her sane.''

''How was the family murdered?'' Liam asks, raising his hand a bit.

He shrugs his shoulders. ''No one knows. Theory's have predicted that it was Leah to have killed her family. But there was no actual proof.''

The bell rang and Lea was the first to rush out of the classroom before anyone else. So many thoughts flooded the girls mind that she paid no attention to where she was going.

But she does know how to make it all the way to her locker with just the back of her hand. Though Liam was hot on her tail.

''Something happened last night. What happened?''

She continued her actions by putting in the combination to her lock. Ten to the left, seventeen to the right and twenty three to the right.

She opened the door and with Liam's short temper, he slammed it shut. This was a moment when he really tried to contain his anger.

Liam tried so hard to help her. He knows she's struggling more than she could handle yet Lea doesn't want to let him in.

Believe it or not, Lea didn't want him containing the same amount of secrets and to keep these secrets from everyone you know. If she couldn't handle it, what makes him think that he could?

He took a deep breath, feeling his opposite quickly form. ''Lea, please tell me what happened.''

''Liam, you need to sto-op.''

Her headache grew to the point where you can visibly see a vein on the side of head pumping.

Her vision blurred from being light headed.

''Are you okay?''

She grabbed a water bottle she brought with her in her bag and took out a little container of Advil from her locker.

The pills inside rattle as she does so and Liam could practically hear the empty capacity of the bottle.

He snatched the bottle away from her grasp and opened it himself.

There was only four left.

''Have you been taking these all day?'' He asks, looking up at Lea in disbelief.

''After every few periods when I really need it'' She explains almost sheepishly.

''Lea I'm worried about you. You can't just let me in one day and shut me out the next, especially since all I want do is help even if I don't know what's going on.''

She scoffed and rested her head against the closed locker beside hers and licked her dry and cracked lips.

''Liam do you hear yourself? You don't know what's going on. And even if you did, you wouldn't be any help. Especially if everything isn't figured out because you can't even begin to comprehend what's going on in this head of mine.''

His heart broke at every word thrown at him. How her voice sounded hoarse and strained, how the bags under eye's made her face sunken in.

But he doesn't know how close Lea was to breaking down her walls. She was so desperate for someone but she was afraid.

If she tells one person then another will know. Yet there's also a chance if she tells one person then things will change dramatically for the worse.

Because she knew she was the one who was born as the sin.

She was a sinister.
