I have never thought this day will come. It’s the most horrible, terrifying thing anyone has to go through. Who ever made it, is evil, and disturbed. The first day of high school.

I didn’t want to wake up. I wanted to stay in bed, I didn’t want to leave this dream. The perfect mirror image of my Mom. “Jake, my dear, I love you” I heard the perfect copy of her voice. I knew it was all a dream. It was all just a copy of her. The real her was gone. All I had where her memories. There was no way of her coming back. Not anymore.

Then she faded, and all I saw was my old worn down room. The black walls fit into the empty void in my mind. I looked over to my two little brothers empty beds, both already left to school most likely. I got up, made my bed, and went to the closet. I decided to wear my favorite Three Days Grace shirt, my worned down, black, skinny jeans, and my favorite pair of low tops, and garbed my lucky black gloves.

I walked out of my room, and went into the restroom. I stared into the mirror, I always hated what I saw. The side of my long black hair reached the end my cheeks. The front covered one my eyes. I made sure my face was barely visible. Though, I still hated the way I looked. I banged on the sink in anger. Ever since she left, I haven’t been able to control my anger. I was only thirteen at the time, how could have I deal with that if no one new how I felt. If everyone thought I was OK. I'm sixteen now, it’s been three years, still I haven’t gotten over it. My brothers were four. Now there seven, and they have lived there lives happily. I was still deep in my depression. The reason I used to cut myself, I stopped when my friends forced me. I stared once more into the mirror, and left into the living room. Like I thought everyone was awake. Aunt Lilli was still in the kitchen, it seemed she always had something to do. She had short,black, and thin hair. A long slender body. She was always so fit. I went into the kitchen, and pretended that she wasn’t there. I opened the shelf, and got a snack bar. Left out of the kitchen got my book bag, and left the house. I started to walk toward my school.

As I walked, I smelled the freshly cut grass. Though the smell didn’t fit into the environment. It looked eerie. It was cold. It felt lifeless, like me. As I walked, it felt as if someone was following me. I ignored the feeling, knowing that if I turned around there would be no one. I felt very cold again. It was too cold to be a August day. It was to early for the winter seasons to kick in. Well, what else can I expect. It was always like this on my birthday. Why would this one be any different? As I walked I saw a bird flying. It seemed like it wasn’t afraid of me. It didn’t fly away like the others. It just stood there. Like it trusted me. Then in a moment the bird was gone. All I saw was a trail of feathers, leading to a cat, that was eating something. I just kept walking. I thought to myself, that was the perfect image of life. Never lower your guard, cause in the end you will die. Life wasn’t easy, but harder to keep. I learned that the hard way. I reached into my pocket, and got my snack bar. “Cherry flavor, my favorite!” I said, as I took one bite of my only breakfast. I kept on walking, at what seemed to be the longest road ever. I finished the bar, and threw the wrapper behind me. That’s when I froze. I swore I saw someone behind me. I turned slowly. I studied the area, I didn’t see anything. “Must be seeing things, now I know im crazy” I said to myself, I turned back around “Oh, crap!” I yelped. That’s when I saw her. The most beautiful girl I have ever seen. Long black hair, the lightness blue eyes I have ever seen. Her skin was pale, but seemed smooth, her lips seemed to be a dark red. Then I noticed her shirt. We where wearing matching shirts. Just her Three Days Grace shirt seemed tighter. “U mm, my face is up here?” She snapped “ Oh! It’s not like that I was looking at your shirt! I swear!” I panicked! “ I was only kidding” she explained “Oh OK” I answered back.

We started to walk together, I didn’t know why, but I thought I liked her. It was a strange reason. I was just caught in her spell. The weirdest part is that I didn’t want to leave the spell.

“So whats your name?” I asked.

“ My name is Mira Hunter” she answered, “May I know yours?”

“Oh yeah, im Jake Sol”

“Jake Sol....” she whispered, I loved the way she said my name. It was as if she sang it. To be honest everything she said sounded like a song. I just loved it so much.

“So are you going to Eastwood High?” she asked.

I was still deep into my thoughts, before I could reply. For some reason it took some time to answer. “Yeah...I am ... Are you?”

“Yes, I’ll be a Junior this year” she smiled.

Then again something else I fell in love with. The way she smiled. It was like everything about her is different. I loved it all.

“That’s cool I'm going to be a Junior too” I replied.

I waited for her to say something, but she didn’t say a word. So I scanned my head, looking for something to say. Then I saw her shirt.

“So you like Three Days Grace?” I asked hesitatingly.

“Of course! Its my favorite band!” she said quickly.

I was so happy to hear that! “There my favorite band too!” I replied.

“What’s your favorite song?” she asked.

“Ummm, World So Cold..” I replied

“Oh I love that song, mine is Riot!” She answered back

“Let’s start riot! A riot! Let’s start riot!” I singed.

We singed, and talked about music all the way to Eastwood. I wished we could have walked forever, and never stopped. For some reason I felt happy with her. Like without her there was no light in my dark. Wow, I was with her a few minutes and now I didn’t see light without her. Man, what am I? Edward Cullen? “Well, I guess I’ll see you around Jake” she said as she turned to walk away. “Laters Mira” I said. The words seemed impossible to say.Well I didn’t put much thought into it, and walked to the people who had familiar faces.

Zoe, and Nicky were standing by our tree. The tree that we called “The Tree of Friendship” we promised to be friends forever on that tree. Zoe stood there, until she saw me. Her lips turned into a huge smile, as she ran toward me. Her long curly hair waved in air. Her long skinny legs, ran faster than I though she was. Her tan skin fit into her look. She was wearing her purple and white striped sweater. Her beauty was obvious, but she couldn’t see it. She finally reached me, and gave me a huge hug. “I missed you so much, Jake” She said “ I missed you too, Zoe” She let go, and we walked toward Nicky. He had short brown hair, he was very skinny. His tan skin, unlike Zoe didn’t fit his look. Especially because his light brown hair, but it was to hard not to stare into his blue eyes. There weren’t as light as Mira, but still light. “Hey Jake! I haven’t seen you in ages!” Nicky yelled “Its nice to see you too” I said. We sat next to are tree, and talked about memories of last year. When we heard the first bell, we said “See yo later” and followed our schedules. I took a look at the paper, and repeated the classes in my head “Speech, Algebra II, Chemistry, Lunch,U.S. History, Spanish, Art, then my Career Path class, Medical. I followed the map, and ended up in my Speech class. When I walked in, the first thing I noticed was who was in the corner of the room. Mira. I couldn’t help it, but I had smile when I saw her.

I sat on the desk next to her

“So now your stalking me?” she whispered.

“Nah I’m just lucky” I whispered back.

I could have sworn she blushed.

Then I felt someone put there hand on my shoulder. I turned to look who it was, and I saw something that wasn’t real. A teenage boy that looked like he wanted to tear my head off. The way his eyes stared at me it was seemed like he could. His dark green eyes looked at me with so much hate. He wasn’t to skinny, but it still seemed like he wasn’t to strong. His eyes though put fear in me. It was a strange outfit too. Long, baggy pants, black T-shirt, and a weird necklace. his hair was spiky, but it was different than the normal hair.

“Mira why are you talking to this!” He said with the hint of disgust.

“Cause I can Jared!” Mira yelled at the boy

“It better not be what I think it is!” Jared said staring at me like I just committed murder.

“I can do whatever I want Jared!” Mira said with such anger.

“Mr. Hunter, may you take a seat?” said Mr. Owens

Jared stared at me one more time, and back to his seat. I couldn’t be anymore thankful for Mr. Owens. I had known him since my freshman year.

“Who was that?” I asked Mira

“That’s my brother, Jared” she whispered

“Oh, why was he so mad at me?”

“He is a real jerk and is overprotective”

“Wow” I said

She didn’t say anything else to me for the rest of the day. All day I thought of her, and Jared. It seemed like there something more to them, something different. I also found out that she has two more brothers at school, and one sister. Zoe says that there a weird bunch. Lenny, was the
