I woke up in Ethan’s arms, which was 更多 comfortable than it should have been. I didn’t want to 移动 或者 wake him, he looked peaceful and it was better when he was quite. I sighed and then saw his eye flutter. ‘Crap!’ I thought to myself, is eyes fully opened and turned to me. “Morning” he yawned, I smiled. “Morning, sleepy head” I giggled. He then signed. “Come on we have to get ready for school” he said, I moaned and got out of bed. I looked back and saw Ethan getting up. I opened my mouth to say something but was cut off 由 Gloria barging in. “Morning sleepy beauties’” She greeted. I turned to her and smiled. “Good morning Gloria” I said, Ethan just nodded and walked into the bathroom. I turned to Gloria, she just stood there. “Are 你 coming to school?” I asked she scoffed. “As if, I hated the first time...why the hell would I do it again?” She asked. I smiled. I understood what she was talking about. The bathroom door then opened, Ethan came out with just a towel wrapped around him. I signed and walked straight in not even daring to look at him. As soon as I went into the bathroom, I closed the door and did my normal morning routine. I got out of the 淋浴 and walked into my room, which so my surprise was empty. I sighed and got dressed; I put on black skinny jeans, with a plain white-t.

When I walked downstairs I noticed Thor, Dawn and Ethan all sitting on the couch, waiting for me. Thor was the first to stand up. He walked over to me; his face was full of pity. “Are 你 sure 你 want to do this?” he asked, I stared at him coldly. “Yes for the last time” I answered him. He put his hands up in defeat and then started to walk to the front door. Ethan and Dawn got up and started to follow. Ethan was a bit slower though he walked beside me.

Once we were at school, I was nervous just like everyone 说 I would be. The first period was taken over 由 a school meeting everyone has to be there. I walked in quietly trying not to be noticed, But I failed Liz had already spotted me. She came up to me and greeted me with a big hug. I was not sure why though. “Come on” She said, pulling me where our class was sitting. The principle came to the stand. It took him at least three whole 分钟 to quite everyone down. Before he started to speak he looked nervous like he was bringing something up that he was afraid no one wanted to heard 或者 cared for that matter. He finally cleared his throat and started to speak. “Welcome back everyone, I hope 你 had a great weekend. But I regret to inform everyone that, a fellow student had passed away” he said, his words may of 说 he was sorry but not his face.

The rest of the 日 was about the same. Did 你 hear this and that? The football team was in mourning and so were the cheerleaders. I stopped 由 my locker. “Sadie?” I heard my name being called I turned to see Remi, he smiled shyly. “Oh 嘿 Remi, what’s up?” I 说 he set out a deep sigh. His 日 must have been a lot worse than mine. “I’m sorry about the last time we saw each other” he said. I shook my head; I was the one who should be apologising. “No need, it was my fault” he smiled. “Here” he said, he put his hand into his back and pulled out an envelope. “The invitation for the funeral” he said. I nodded and took it. “It’s really happening” I said. He nodded and smiled. “Mother and father won’t leave the house and Kate won’t go to school” he said. Kate? “Who’s Kate?” I asked. He gave me a confused look. “Our little sister” he answered me. I nodded. “I’ll see 你 there” he said, behind his should as he left. I let out a deep sigh.

When I got home, the place was empty, 或者 so I thought it was. “Darling, you’ve grown” I heard a gentle familiar voice. I turned to see my mother. “Mom, you’re here!” I screamed, I ran and hugged her. She smiled and let g of me. “Honey, how have 你 been?” she asked. I had two choices, tell her the horrible truth 或者 lie? “Great” I lied. She laughed. “Sweetie, don’t lie to your mother, I heard about Adam” she said, damn. “Yeah, well his funeral’s soon” I said, she let out a deep sigh. “Just because he’s getting buried doesn’t mean, he’s gone” She said. I nodded. “I need to take a shower” I said, she smiled. “I missed 你 honey” she said.

As soon as I got in my room, I need to take a breath, to breathe. I needed to get away from this place. “That’s it after the funeral I will leave” I told myself. I looked over to the Adam’s pendant. “Wait, why is it here?” I asked myself. I walked over to it; its colour caught my eye. It was pitch black. “That only happens when a god has got his power stolen” I reminded myself. I picked it up; no rush went over to me. “Oh my god” Something clicked in my head. Adam was murdered for his power. I have nothing to say, Adam was dead. Adam was murdered. My phone then rang. The tone was dull; I picked it up and then noticed it was a private number. “Hello?” I asked I heard no answer. Nothing but whispers and deep breathes. “Hello?” I 说 louder than before. “Sadie” I heard my name being whispered. I didn’t recognise the voice. I sighed and then closed my phone. “Creep” I 说 to myself. I heard a knock at my door and then heard it open. “Hey” Dawn said. I smiled. “Hey yourself” I laughed. “I need to talk to you” She told me, I nodded. “Okay, talk” I said. She closed her eyes and then sat on the bed. “That day...that he died...I never told 你 how it happened 或者 what happened” She said. I nodded; did I want to know this? “He was sitting at the 喷泉 and someone came behind him and the 下一个 thing I knew he was dead” She said. I nodded. That wasn’t as bad as I thought, I was going to tell her everything, but I couldn’t. “Thanks” I smiled. She kissed me on the head and then left. I turned to look at my own pendant. “Here goes nothing “I said. I picked it up and then closed my eyes. This time I saw a grave stone. It was blank, but hand daisy’s 下一个 to it. I opened my eyes. “Where is the cemetery?” I asked myself. I got up and went to the computer. I searched for all the cemeteries in the state, there are two. I wrote the names down. I noticed one was where Adam was being buried.

I woke up being shaken. I opened my eyes to see my mother. I smiled. “Honey, we need to get ready for the funeral” She told me, I nodded. I waited there in my 床, 床上 for a couple of moments; the same thoughts went through my head. The last time I saw Adam, he hated me. Adam’s dead. I did my best to drown them out as I got up. I didn’t know what I would wear. None of my outfits really screams funeral. I decided to go with a black knee high 短裙, 裙子 and jacket. I didn’t want to 淋浴 I just did my hair and makeup. After I was done, I just stared into the window. It was snowing, why would it snow? Why did the weather have to match my feelings? I asked myself. I heard a knock on my door. I turned and saw Dawn she was smiling.

The funeral was nothing too special; people gathered around a coffin. The priest went on about life and how great it was. 由 the time it was over, I thanked god for that. “Darling are 你 ready to go home?’ My mother asked. I shook my head. I have to do something, I’ll come 首页 later” I told her, she looked at me puzzled. But then her face softened. “Okay” She said, everyone was then gone, I just stood there in front of the grave stone. I walked away and then remembered I had to find, the girl’s grave.

I looked everywhere, but there wasn’t a blank grave in sight. I decided to call it a day. I turned and started to walk back but as I did I noticed somebody 由 Adam’s grave. I walked closer and saw a man with his back to me. I walked closer, he wasn’t wearing a tux. He got up and turned. My mouth dropped when I saw who he was.

Adam.
