woman with white hair secured in a tight bun, bottomless, black eyes, and a skirt way up past her waist line said. She was definitely an old timer. The woman had a crackling old voice. She must be Mrs. Deevill. She began to scan the room. My guess, she was seeing who was here and who wasn't until her eyes fell on me.

" I see we have a new student. Lovely, stand up and introduce yourself young lady." I sighed and stood. 

"Hello, my name is April Banks." I said. I then took my seat.

"I didn't tell you to sit back down. Stand back up." Mrs.Deevill said. Natalie and her friends began to snicker. I rolled my eyes and stood back up. "That's good, now where are you from?"

"Kennil County, Alabama."

"What high school are you transferring from?"

"Uh....... Kinnel County High School."

"Don't take that tone with me, Young Lady."

"What tone?"

"That tone there."

"What t-. Nevermind, look Mrs.Devil -"

"Deevill. Two e's and two l's don't make a mistake in calling me devil again. Am I understood?"

"Yes ma'am."

"Good, now take your seat." I rolled my eyes and took my seat. I then got my iPod out. "What is that? Is that an iPod? Give it to me at once." She began to walk my way with her hand stretched out toward me. I ignored her and turned it on. Mrs.Deevill tried to snatch my headphones out of my ears, but I grabbed her wrist before she could try. I chuckled slightly. I took one headphone out so I could hear her. I could tell by her expression she was furious and shocked.

 "Mrs. Deevill let me fill you in on something. No one takes my iPod. Now they try but they always fail." I smiled to myself. "Not only that they get on my bad side and trust me you don't want that." I released her wrist. She turned away from me.

"Well, unfortunately, I do not care if I'm on your bad side or not." Mrs.Deevill said grabbing the wire that was connected to my headphones. I then grabbed her arm and twisted it behind her back and slammed her into the neighboring desk. The boy who sat there jumped out of his seat. Everyone was silent for several seconds.

"Now, Mrs. Deevill, I avise you not to do that again cause if you do this," I paused putting more pressure on her arm," is going to be ten times worst. I do apologize. I don't like hurting people, but I hate it when people try take my iPod." I said as I slowly released her. I could feel all eyes on me.

"Go to the office!" Mrs.Deevill yelled as she rubbed her wrist. I smirked but soon lost it when I turned and saw Nathan's eyes filled with judgment. I bowed my head and snatched up my bags and left. I put my iPod in my pocket. My blood was racing and anger and sadness began to infuse together making my hands become fist and tears ,that never came to my eyes since my father's funeral, threaten to reveal themselves. There was also confusion in the emotions I felt. Why am I crying? Why do I even care what he or anyone else in this school thinks of me? Questions like these filled my head. I turned a corner and sat down at the end of the lockers. I wanted to sort my thoughts out before I was suspended or I was charged with first degree assault. I soon heard footsteps getting' louder and louder as someone got closer and closer.

"April?" Clara said nearly in a whisper as her head peeked around the corner. I got up as quickly as I could and turned my back to her. I didn't want to see the judgment and fear in her eyes.

"What do you want?" I asked coldly.

"I just came to see if you were okay." She paused her voice was kind and sincere." Are you?" Clara asked. I didn't understand. I could tell that my confusion showed on my face because it reflected in her eyes. "You looked rather upset when Mrs.Deevill tried to take your iPod and when you left I didn't think you should be alone. With a temper like yours you would most likely end up with a broken hand from hitting' the wall." She chuckled at her little joke.

"Why do you care and who in their right mind would come after someone with a temper like mine?"

"One, I'm not a person whose in their right mind and besides I have a temper like that to. Second, I care because you're a friend."

"I'll hardly call us friends. We don't even know each other."

"On the contrary we -" Clara froze like she heard someone coming. She signed annoyed." Anyway, why did you freak out? It's just an iPod." I clenched my teeth together.

"My reasons for my actions are no concern of yours or anyone else's at this school. What happens with or to me has nothing to do with you. So, do yourself a favor and stay away from me." I said. I turned to leave, but Clara grabbed my arm in an iron grasp that I couldn't break away from." Let go of m-"

"You can't keep running away forever. I know it's hard moving to a new town and having to start over. Especially, when you're different and when you think you lost the only person who understood you. You just have to trust me when I tell you that I can help." Clara fell silent letting her words sink in. Apart of me wanted to call her a fool, snatch my arm away, and never interact with her again, but another part wanted me to believe her every word and finally have a friend. The only thing I had close to a friend was the little girl I would see in my dreams. We would always be playing with three little boys. The girl had similar features as Clara and the two of the boys had the same features as Seth and Nathan but it was so long ago that I couldn't recall if it was them or not. Before I made my decision there was one question I knew I should ask.

"Why should I trust you? We don't even know each other." I said. She was about to protest but she stopped herself. She released my arm and took a step toward me, moving her lips to my ear.

"Because, I know you want to know how we can all hear each other's thoughts. I know you have questions for Seth, Nathan, and I but your waiting until we're alone. I know that every full moon at midnight you wonder the woods in search of something but you don't know what that something is." Clara said. She pulled away. Shock was the only thing I felt. Every word she spoke was true. I couldn't deny that. I feel silent for a few minutes. "Do you trust me now?" She asked with a smug grin on her face. You can trust her, a voice said in my head. It was familiar, but it wasn't Nathan's, Seth's, or any student's. I couldn't place it but a part of me knew I could trust it, but before I gave her my answer I had to fed my curiosity.

"How do you know all this stuff?" I asked suspiciously.

"I can't tell you that. Well, at least, not right now."

"Then when?"

"Soon." Clara said and chuckled slightly. We stood there silent for several moments. "We'll answer all your questions later, but right now we better get back."

"Back?"

"Yeah, back. We still have class, April."

"I'm pretty sure I'll get arrested if I step in that classroom again."

"Don't worry no one will remember what you did. They'll just think I escorted you to the nurse to get some Tylenol because you had a severe headache."

"Huh?"

"It's something else we'll explain later. C'mon." Clara said grabbing my hand and dragging me down the hall. Something told me that I was going' to be confused quite a lot today. Not even pausing Clara rushed into the room with me in tow. As soon as I stepped in every one's eyes were on me. Mrs.Deevill didn't have any resentment on her face.

"Ms. Banks are you well now?" She asked with a well-mannered voice. Remembering what Clara said in the hall, don't worry no one will remember what you did. They'll just think I escorted you to the nurse to get some Tylenol because you had a severe headache, I hesitantly nodded. My heart pounded and my stomach twisted as I walked to my seat next to Nathan. Keeping my gaze down I took my seat and Mrs.Deevill went back to her lesson. I barely listened as I sorted through my thoughts when I heard Nathan's voice in my head.

"Are you okay?" He asked. I turned to him and nodded.

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"That's good. I was worry there for a minute."

"You're too young to worry. You'll be getting gray hairs and wrinkles if you keep on."

"I wasn't the only one that got worried. When you stormed out you had all of us worried. Their thoughts were screaming with worry until Clara decided to go after you."  I froze when I heard this. Letting his words sink in. I then decided to ask my questions to change the subject. 

 "How do y'all hear each other's thoughts?"

"Before you start the interrogation I want you to know that I'll be able answer some your questions, but I won't be able to answer them all."

"Okay,so how do y'all communicate telepathically?"

"That's kind of difficult to explain."

"Try me."

"Well, we're kind of connected..... By a bond we formed when we were kids. Okay? We're kind of been inseparable since we were young. This bond, we have, can't be formed by just two people that know each other. It's formed by people who feel drawn to their friends."

"Like love at first sight?"

"I don't follow you."

"Well, when you see someone on the street and you fall in love immediately because you feel something pulling you toward them. You can't really explain it but you know it's something special. Something that not everyone has."

"I see. Well, when you put it that way then yeah it's exactly like that."

"Okay, next question."

"Shoot."

"Are you and Natalie going out?" I turned toward him seeing his reaction. I could tell I caught him off guard. Nathan looked my way and gave me a 'are-you-kidding-me' look.

"Are you serious?"

"Yeah."

"No! There is no way I'll ever date her."

"The she must really like you."

"Yeah, she has a huge crush on me and I don't know why?" My mouth dropped open at what he said.

"You got to be kidding me." 

"What?"

"You actually don't know why?"

"I have no clue." I chuckled. 

"Well she may like you for your looks." I turned to face him. He had a grin on his face that was to gorgeous for any normal teenage boy. I had to turn away before my face gave me away. Warmth began to radiate in my chest. I was confused by this feeling but shook it off. 

"Do you know something I don't?"

"I have no idea what your talking about."

"Okay, do you have anymore questions?"

"No not really."

"Cool, we better go to our next class." Nathan said after the bell rung. I nodded and stood. Our conversation came to a end and we went our seperate ways. The rest of the day flew by and before I knew it it was time to go home. 

"Hey April, wait up." Nathan called catching up to me. I was about to say hey when we was joined by Natalie.

"Hello, Nathan, sweetie."

"Natalie." 

"I see your hanging with the new girl again."She paused giving me a once over. " Why don't you ditch her and come hang out with me." Natalie said taking Nathan's arm again and pushing me to the side. I rolled my eyes and kept walking to my truck. 

"Before you go can you help me out?" Nathan pleaded. I turned to face him. He met my gaze and
