Calhoun's POV
I couldn't pretend to myself I didn't hear it. Loud and clear even though it was a whisper. I turned, but it only increased. I was so tempted to follow it because c'mon, who hears their name so loud in the middle of the night and doesn't get curious? Letting my curiosity get the better part of me, I stood up and walked to the window and then looked down. I didn't see anyone. No sane person will climb up to my window using a ladder and then to avoid being caught, jump down. The person will definitely have a major concussion.
Was I imagining this?
" Calhoun." It came clearer than a whisper this time. I suddenly felt compelled to answer.
. " Yes." I whispered
"Behind you." it came as a whisper again. Just when I was going to turn...
" Wake up!" Tamara screamed as I covered my face- another dream.
" I'm awake." I protested before she could hit my face.
" Do you have any idea what time it is? You're late!" She yelled louder like she thought I didn't hear her before.
" How late could I possibly be?" I asked rhetorically but of course, Big T answered.
" Late enough to miss the bus and be a normal student."
" You'll drive me, won't you?" I asked from the bathroom.
" Drive you my foot." she retaliated
" Then you didn't have to wake me." I said coming out .
" You'd better go back in there before I kill you." Tamara yelled walking out. I was alone again.
" Wanna go to Lucifer's circus?"I spun around to nothing, where did the voice come from?
" Huh?" I turned back only to face myself in the mirror. My face twitched in the mirror,my eyes got darker and myself in the mirror smiled from ear to ear- literally.
" You wanna go?" myself or my reflection in the mirror asked and I couldn't even find my voice.
My life was officially over.
" Ouch!" I shouted when I felt someone tap my head.
" What is wrong with you?!" Tamara yelled in my face.
Was I crazy? What sort of crazy hallucination was that?
" How can you sleep in the bathroom? Take your bath and come out let's get the hell outta here, it's twenty minutes into eight am." Tamara walked out.
MINUTES LATER...
I put on my uniform and of course there was no need to tuck it in, I never did that. I placed my unknot tie on my neck, brushed my hair, put my socks and shoes on carried my bag and phone and walked out.
"Big T!" I called as I walked down the stairs
" Big T's dead." My subconscious said.
"Shut up, you're watching too many horror movies." I cautioned my inner self.
"Big T!" I raced to the kitchen, she wasn't there, I started to panic.
" Big..."
" I'm here." Tamara's voice came from the back.
" I'm ready." I walked ahead of her, what was I thinking? Nothing could possibly happen.
9:50am...
Tamara pulled over at school, got down and walked straight in after a long time of waving just to completely get by physics class, I did successfully .
I walked down the hall thinking about how creative my dreams are . Taking a deep breath, I walked into class.
" The day's just breaking, isn't it, Salvadore?" Mr Glick asked as he saw me .
" Yup. It even rained. I never knew it rains in deserts." I responded, since he wanted to be stupid, let's be stupid together.
" Why can't you ever dress properly?"Glick seemed to have much of my time.
" Because I can't knot a tie." I said
" At 11th grade."
" Why are you making it sound like you could at my age and class?"
" Because I could."
" That's if you went to school." I muttered loud enough for him to hear.
" Move to your seat and tell your brother to teach you how to be intelligent." Glick looked fulfilled after saying that so I replied," yeah, sure. Cause you can't give what you don't have." It took him a while to process it before sending me to detention.
