The weekend past, before class, my friends ask what exactly happened with Klaus and Dimelo and what their punishment is. They are both suspended for a week. Dimelo because he started it all and Klaus because he broke Dimelo's nose. What should he have done? Did they expect him to not fight back?

Jade takes her wallet from her bag. "I'm going to get a sandwich, you can already go to the others." I nod and walk on.

I see them standing next to the restroom. They wave but I can hardly wave back with those crutches. They aren't as annoying as they were a week ago.

A group of boys comes out of the boy's restroom. The first two boys are running, one is trying to put something in the hood of the nice boy who is friends with Jason.  The rest of that group follows them talking with one another. I wait till they all pass by, looking away for just a second. When I look back I see that someone is about to bump into me, I quickly take a step back, preventing me from falling. When I look up I see it's the nice boy.

He stops moving and his eyes widen when he sees me. "Oh, sorry," he says. He looks at me way longer than necessary.

"Uhm, it's okay," I say and just want them to continue walking. But because he is standing still, the whole group stopped walking and they are standing in front of me looking at me.

Jason is among them and his eyes are also on me. Are they expecting me to say something else? The nice boy finally turns around and walks away. Everyone follows him making the path towards my friends clear. Jason also wants to walk along but then changes his mind. He turns around on his heels to look at me and I just look back at him, unsure why I'm so happy that his eyes are on me again. They weren't for just one day but it was...annoying I guess.

"Hai," he says curtly.

"Hai" I look at him. I don't know why but he looks really uncomfortable, going with his fingers through his hair, pushing his hands back in his jeans pockets than again out of his jeans pockets holding the straps of his backpack. He is silent now, looking for the right words to say. It's kind of adorable and I can't help the smile on my face.

Oh god, stop smiling.

''So have you made up your mind yet, about talking to me?'' This question makes me remember why I decided to stop talking to him and the smile disappears. I know he notices that when he starts speaking again.

"Cira just listen to what I have to say, please? I have done some research to figure out what you are."

What I am? I want to walk away now, afraid that my behavior will betray me. His friends are waiting for him a few meters away from us and so are mine. They can't hear what we're saying.

"I don't need you to tell me what I am. Sorry but I really have to go to my friends now." I look at him for 2 seconds while talking, then turn around and look at my girlfriends.

Looking at their faces, I see that they really don't understand what is happening. I walk towards them. I see Indira looking at the floor in front of me.

"Watch out!" She shouts. I want to look down, but it's already too late. My good leg slides forward and I fall backward.

Are-you-kidding-me. The universe is really working against me. Someone has spilled there drink.

I try to get my hands out of my crutches so that I can catch myself, but that doesn't go very smoothly. I probably going to look like a struggling spider. I feel a hand in my back that prevents me from falling. The hands let go of me when I am stable again.

I turn around in shame. ''Thank you,''

"No problem," says Jason, putting his hands back in his pockets.

"Cira, are you OK?" I hear Sylvana say behind me. I turn around and see them all walking towards me.

"Yes," I say and smile at them. Danielle just stares at Jason, Indira also looks at him. Jade looks at both of us, I can't read her face. Sylvana is the only one who looks at me. My eyes shoot from her to Jason. He is keeping his eyes on me. Then he changes his attitude.

"Is it okay if I steal Cira from you for this break? I need to talk to her for a moment." He smiles briefly and the dimples in his cheeks appear.

I look away before I start staring. I understand if they can't speak a word now. Indira just nods and stares at him, Jade doesn't really respond.

"Hihihihi," Daniëlle looks at him and giggles. "You can steal me this break." She says while playing whit the tips of her hair.

Really? What is she thinking?

"Uhmm ... I ..." He doesn't know what to say. Sylvana gives Dani a poor.

"She doesn't mean that," Sylvana says, then looks at me.

"She's all yours," she says. 

When she says those words, he gets a grin on his face.

"Nice," Jason turns to me again. Sylvana walks away and Jade and Indira follow her lead. They had to give Danielle a push before she got out of her trance, I can't blame her.

Jason looks at me, he sucks on the inside of his cheeks and waits patiently for my response.

"Okay," I turn to him. He nods with a smug look on his face. While walking he begins his story. I just follow him and listen.

"I spoke with my pack, I told them that you are a normal girl who doesn't know what you are ..."

He hasn't said much yet, but I'm already getting a bad feeling. I look the other way. We sit down on the benches in the hall.

He continues again. "I did some research but I didn't find anything, and uhmm ..." he spoke much faster and softer in that sentence. 

I now look at him again.

"Me too," I say. I'm going to bring it in a very subtle way. Just seeing if it really exists won't hurt. What if it is real? Will me asking about it help him figure out what I'm? Will he be one of the people who want me dead? 

He looks surprised at me. ''You did?''

"Yes, just searched on the internet."  We are sitting across from each other, with a small table between us. We're at the back of the hall, there is normally no one here. So it's no surprise that we are alone now. I'm not sure if I should ask about it.

"Just those stories about trolls, dwarfs, elves, and fairies." He looks expectantly as if he knows something is coming.

"What is real? Two months ago, werewolves only existed in stories for me." His eyes don't leave my face.

"I have heard about vampires and witches, but I don't know if they really exist. I'm pretty sure that giants, trolls and all the other creatures don't exist." I nod and look at my hands again. 

See he is ''pretty sure'' Vini's don't exist.

"And uhh ..." 

My hesitation makes him rais an eyebrow.

"Bzzz," my phone screen turns on and shows me a few messages. When I see the time I remember that I still have to change my books.

"Can we go to my locker, I have to get some books." Half of me wants an excuse to change the subject, but the other half also wanted to know the truth.

''Sure,'' We get up and walk in the direction of my locker. It is quiet for a moment.

"So what did you want to say?" He is not letting it go. 

Okay Cira now or never, just go for it. I keeping my eyes on him now.

"I have read about ... Vinis. I don't know...''

He stopped walking and his eyes move from the ground to space in front of us. I feel goosebumps appear all over my body. I take a step away from him. It is true "I am a ..." he grabs my arm and pulls me around the corner.

"Never say that word out loud." His voice changes from casual and light to intense and serious. He leans towards me and starts talking quickly and softly.

"Almost nobody knows about Vinis. I read about it a while ago in one of my mother's books. I was hoping it didn't apply to you. My family probably doesn't know them either. No one has said anything about it so far or feels threatened by you." I hear what he is saying but I can't respond. I stare at the floor, my head empty.

"Cira you can't tell anyone. No one can be trusted. No human, werewolf or whatever." He speaks very clearly.

He just confirmed that I am a Vini. That means that magical creatures want me dead. That is not possible. How can I suddenly become this thing? How do we know it's true? I have seen him change once and almost twice. Maybe I can do something to stop it. I know what Jason is still looking at me waiting for a response.

"Are you okay?" His voice is now confused instead of commanding. I stare straight ahead at the wall. I feel my heart beating quicken in my chest and I feel it through my whole body. I don't know what to do now. When I look up to meet his eyes, I see his expression change, his eyes soften.

"It will be all right, we just have to make sure that nobody finds out." He says reassuringly. But it doesn't really help. He is watching me carefully. "Nothing will happen to you, I promise." 

I look at him and see that he is serious.

We stare into each other's eyes, and for the first time, I have no intention of looking away. From this moment on, those eyes that followed me in my dreams changed from something scary to something safe and familiar.

When I realize how close we're standing to each other, I want to take a step back but I'm already standing against the wall. He takes a step back and finally releases my arm. He looks away from me and smiles apologetically.

"Uhm shall we go to your locker?" He asks. We walk out of the hall and walk in the direction of the lockers.
