I sat in the seat on the other side of the princeples desk and he glared at me.

"Alice John had a few bruises on his head and he said you did that to him." He said.

"So what if I did. I didn't do it on school grounds so you can't do anything." I said and I walked out of his little office. 

I heard him calling for me to come back but I ignored him. I walked back into the 10th grade hallway and Max was standing by my locker so I walked over.

"Why are you by my locker?" I asked him.

"Well I know that when you come back to class you always stop by your locker to do something. And I wanted to know what you did." Max answered.

I rolled by eyes and started walking back to science. Max followed along. "Come on you can tell me Alice." Max pleaded.

"I'm not telling you. Maybe one day you'll find out. But not today." I sighed.

Just then Zac came rushing out of math. I looked at him weirdly. "Reap." He said as he walked by.

"During school?!" I almost yelled.

"Yea during school." He said over his shoulder.

"Reap? What does that mean?" Max asked with a confused look on his face.

"You'll find out someday." I said walking into Mr.Blane's classroom.

(__)__(__) LUNCH (__)__(__)

I walked into the lunch room with Max and we parted ways. I sat at Zac, Ben, Allie and I's regular table while Mx sat with his jock friends. He didn't play sports but he was popular. 

"Why were you hanging out with Max in the hallway?" Zac asked as he handed me a gateraid,

"I got sent to the office because of John and when I came back he was standing by my locker." I answered.

 "Oh really? Why would popular max wait for you an your locker if you claim he doesn't like you like that." Allie said looking at me.

Why does she always use my own words against me?! I don't understand! Why can't she just be a normal person and trust me?! GRR! She always does stuff like this!!

 "Alright he told me he liked me like that but I didn't know how to react." I said just as Mya walked over.

Mya. Brown wavey hair and hazel eyes. She's a cheerleader but doesn't act like a total bitch. Her and Ben have been dating for about three months now. They started dating over the summer and when they saw each other on the first day of school the sparks flew! It was instantly love at first sight for them. 

Mya sat in Ben's lap and kissed him on the cheek. "Ben come sit with me and my friends for a second." Mya said with begging eyes.

"Alright give me a second." Ben said.

Mya stood up and walked back over to her table just as Ben's phone went off. Right as he looked at his tears formed in his eyes. We all looked at him. "I got a reap." He said in a whisper. We all looked t him confused. None of us got all choked up over a reap. "It's for Mya." Ben said as tears threatened to fall.

We all looked at him shocked. He left his phone on the table and went to collect Mya's soul. This is one of the reasons grim reapers aren't supposed to date normal human people. Sometimes you can get lucky and it will work out but most of the time it ends in terrible tradgity. I looked at his phone and sure enough it had Mya's name on it. 

I saw him touch Mya's arm. It glowed a bright red at his touch. After that he walked out of the lunch room. I walked out of the lunch room to check on him and he was sitting on the ground crying. I sat next to him. I leaned over and gave him a hug. He wrapped his arms around me and kept crying. We stayed like that for about a minuet. When he let me go he had stopped crying but his eyes were red and puffy.

"Ben we warned you about this." I told him. No matter how many times we had told him he still kept running after her,

"I should have listened to you guys. I just don't know why this is happening to me," Ben said as a few remaining tears fell. I took my jacket sleeve and wiped away his tears,

"Ben it's going to be alright. Your not the only one. When I died. I-I was in love with this guy who loved me back." I said whispering the last part. I never really told them how I died. I just said that I was murdered. But I might as well go ahead and explain.

I was walking home after a long day at school. I had my headphones in and my music was blaring. I didn't hear the gunshots behind me. I didn't hear the screams. I couldn't hear the pain in their voices. Finally the guy caught up to me. I saw him just as he had pulled the trigger. One shot and the bullet went through my neck. A second shot was fired and the bullet went through my skull. I could feel it break though my skull and come out of the back of my head, Right after I heard the bullet him the ground I fell. Some how I had survived that shot to the head but I bled out quickly. Lying there on the concrete right before I bled out I was in so much pain. I could feel everything. It was terrible.

And that's how I died. Wrong place at the wrong time. I was murdered. Eventually the cops stopped trying to find the mad who had caused me all this pain. Even thinking about it makes my neck and head hurt......
