I was shaking Danny but she was too busy daydreaming about Glen McCartney to listen to my voice.

I smacked on her head bringing her out from Dream land.

' Ow!! Emily it hurts ' She exclaimed while rubbing her head

' Look at here' I said, showing my phone screen to her ' there is another murder reported. It says the body, like in other murders, was too found in the forest,  lying inside a ritual circle. The only difference is that it was a body of grown woman instead of young girls. ' I told her

' Another one. It's sixth In the row. Aren't police found something? '

' Police is saying that it's a work of some Lunatic or black magic doers. They had asked to report any suspicious person if we come across. That's it. Except this they haven't relised anything. '

' well that's kinda reassurance ' Danny sarcasticly said

After a pause, she randomly says,
'My mom is not allowing me to step out of the house after seven and I need to go to this Friday party. Because Glen McCartney will be there.'  Danny looked at me expectedly.

' Sorry. I am not as gutsy as you plus you know my dad. He will kill us both before that psychopath.  ' She gave me her famous puppy dog look.

' No. Nope.Nil. I am not-- ' I got cutoff by her
' Please... Only this time. This is last. I promise. Please.. Please.. Please ' She persuaded, giving me a pitiful look.

' But..Uh!!..But we won't stay late.' I agreed

' Yeah!!!.' She threw her hands around me squeezeing me to death. God from where did she get so much power.

' I can't breath Danny' I chocked out

' Oh! Sorry ' She said not looking at all sorry


' Come on we are getting late for class' I picked up my bag from floor and stood up.




I entered the main building of school and the first thing I see is James and Summer MacCoy making out in the crowded hallway.

I rolled my eyes and walked through the stream of students. After putting my books that t don't need now in my locker, I shut it and walked to my first class of the day, science.

The class was bustling and loud chattering of students filled the room. I made way to my usual seat, last row second last seat and slid in, putting my bag on the floor.

I brought out all the items I need for the class and placed them on the table.

' The new guy, Noel Joseph, isn't he hot?' a girl from the seat in front of mine exclaimed.

I recognised them. The girl on the left is Violet and on the right is Martha.

A new guy.

' He is so rude though. I said him hello and he like totally ignored me. ' Martha huffed in anger.

' What do you think yourself Queen Elizabeth,  he even didn't respond to Queen bee Rose Diana's attempt to befriend him. And plus he said ' fuck off ' to her face. ' Violet giggled ' You should have seen her face. '

The guy sound interesting.

' What! Didn't she said she marked him her? '
Martha remarked sarcastically.

' Oh that guy is really hot with those Greek god looks and that ice cold personality.' Violet said with a dreamy sigh.

Surprise! surprise! new guy made a fan base on his first day.

' Good Morning kid's ' Mr Keith wished entering the class.


There was some shuffling sounds of shoes and everyone quite down.
Mr Keith arrived in the class exactly on time.

Class started as per its ritual with a roll call then asking about homework. The class was going on as per the usual everyone quitely jotting down the notes from board.


Out of nowhere,the door banged open startling the whole class. Mr Keith stopped mid lecture. I moved my eyes from my notebook towards the intruder and looked away as fast as they fell on his face. He was already looking at me.

' Yes what do you want' I heard Mr Keith politely asked him.

Mr Keith is a saint,  seriously nothing angers him. He is the only teacher who does not give detention to students. He is a young teacher,  newly joined. He is geeky type who wears glasses and a science freak but a great teacher.

I don't know but I was suddenly feeling all nervous and shy.

Maybe,It's the affect that hot guys have on girls. I wondered.

' I Am Noel Paton' his voice,
deep and velvety. I wanted to look up to take a good look of him but stopped myself. I was looking in my notebook.

' Oh! You're the New student! Please Take any of the empty seats. No time for intro, so let's just skip it. ' 

There was a moment of silence.

Then I heard a seat scraping beside me. My heart beat rose in my chest. I swallowed and glanced from the corner of my eyes. He has taken the which was beside me. Why? Oh god why?

But why I was having problem with it.

I felt holes drilling in me from every where of the class and I guessed that his fan girls were not happy about this and I might get into some trouble for that.

' So where we were, yes!, if we heat the.... ' Mr Keith continued with his lecture. Explaining boiling points of various chemicals.

'Would you stop wriggling in your seat' a deep voice uniquely enchanting to my ears though rudely reprimanded me in a low tone.

I turned my head towards him to give him a pice of my mind but stopped. He was slumped back in his seat, hands in his pants pockets. His eyes closed. Is he planning to fall asleep during the class. His tanned face was handsome. His jaw sharp and high cheekbones.

' click a picture it would last longer ' he commented with his eyes still closed . His face cold as iceberg. No expressions at all.

My! he was surely rude.

' Why did you sit here?' There were two other empty seats. He could have taken anyone.

' Because i felt like it'  my brows shot up.

Damn the attitude!

What a weird guy. Atleast look at the person whom you are talking to.

I turned around and concentrated on Mr Keith lecture. After few minutes of silence I felt eyes on me. I turned to him to see he still had his eyes closed. Confused I turned my head towards the other side and saw a crow staring back at me. Tilting his head in different angles. He was sitting on the window seal.



' Ms Clark what is so interesting out of the window that you are not concentrating in the class.' Mr Keith for the first time said something sarcasticly.

' Sorry sir' I wheesed out and timidly looked back towards the crow but it was no longer there. I sighed and concentrated in my notebook.


After that i concentrated in the class and jotted down important notes.
