I'd told Drusilla to get out, and what did she do? Started chortling at me like she'd heard the punchline to a joke I missed.

"Ooh, sweet boy. You can't hide from me, oh no. I can see you. ‘Sides, I like it here. It reeks of death..."She pulled herself onto one of the tombs and stretched out upon it like she was the Queen ( Read more... )

Everything and everyone that I passed by the school grounds annoyed me. I didn’t really know why, but I really couldn’t stand the sight of them. The way that they looked at me, the way that they seemed to think that they were better than me... it just bothered me more than it had in the past. Come to think of it, I never even really noticed it ( Read more... )

Man my forehead hurt. I ran right into the door, which was pretty clumsy. I made sure to stop by the bathrooms before heading to my room, and man was I going to have a bump and a half on my head. I bet everyone would stare at it too. Of course it wouldn't be the first time people stared at me. I got my share of that in High School. I just thought ( Read more... )

I couldn't believe this. Walsh calls for some important, last minute meeting, and I'm halfway across campus in the middle of an ethics class. My entire military career I had never held poor attendance -- come to think of it, I don't think I've been late for anything in my life, and I wasn't about to start now. It took me the better half of fifteen ( Read more... )

This could not be a result of what I did. My actions were not even to the point of being lethal at the time he clutched at his chest. I played it over and over in my head trying to discern if I had done something without my knowledge. If this connection that I shared with Tucker and Amy was helping me lose control somehow. Already I was third in ( Read more... )

Mom called me first thing, shattering this really cool dream I was having about At-ats and a million squishy ewoks. She wanted me to tell my brother that he'd gotten a phone call from a big Los Angeles law firm. She was "very concerned that he was in trouble with drugs ( Read more... )

After stopping by the counselor's office to get some schedule things taken care of, I headed out to the parking lot. Fortunately Daddy had arranged for a car for me to drive while I was here on my own. He didn't want to inconvenience Mrs. Summers by having to drive me all around town or something. But I guess that makes sense, considering I have ( Read more... )

Tucker was off the phone like lighting which upset me a bit, but considering the circumstances, was probably for the best. If he was meeting with this Morgan woman already, and he was getting the same feedback I was from Jezebel, well then he’d probably want to be- yeah. Not exactly on the phone right now. Once everything was over and I managed ( Read more... )

When I woke up this morning, Buffy had already left for her classes. I guess I can't say that's a bad thing, since lately she's kind of been a Negative Nancy about most things. It's hard always being the Susie Sunshine of the dorm, but I guess I'm always chipper, so that's okay. What kind of irked me, just a little, was that she used the last of my ( Read more... )
