Chapter Three: "Is your job to be annoying today?"

"They laugh at me because I'm different, I laugh at them because they're all the same."

*****************************************************

"AIDA!" I hear my annoying brother's voice boom from downstairs. I brush him off, placing a pillow over my head. "Aida, I'm serious, don't make me come up there!"

I groan and push the covers off of me. "Alright! Alright! I'm up!"

A yawn crosses through my face as I walk over to my closet and lazily pick an outfit for school. I settle for a blue, red, and white flannel shirt than was loose on my stomach, which I love. I match it with skinny jeans and grey Keds. I put my hair in a high pony tail.

Suddenly, my phone starts blasting I'm Sexy And I Know It by LMFAO, which just happened to be Wren's ringtone. And before you ask, yes, she did set it up herself.

"What's the sitch?" I answer, quoting Kim Possible, which just happened to be my favorite TV show of all time.

My best friend groans through the phone, "You have an addiction, Aida. You need counseling."

I scoff, "I don't need counseling! Shut up!"

"Yeah, great come back, A."

"Well is there a specific reason that you called me or can I hang up now because you're annoying me?"

"Yes, there is a specific reason. And it is the following-what are you doing after school?"

"That's it? You couldn't wait until school to ask me that?" I ask, grabbing my backpack and filling it up with the books placed on my desk that I used for last night's homework.

"Okay, I always forget your crabby in the mornings."

"Keep going on, Wren," I say sarcastically, "You're doing great."

"Sorry! Sorry! Let me start again. After school, you and I are heading for the Beacon Hills Reserve."

"Not that I have anything against that plan but why are we going?" I query as I make my downstairs.

Wren sighs as if it were a pain to explain why we're going, "Isn't it obvious?"

"No, Wren. If you must know, it isn't obvious."

"Shut up. We're going to practice your badass Nymph powers!"

I groan, "Do I really have to?"

"Yes, Aida Miller, you have to." She answers, mimicking me.

"You're rude and I'm hanging up." I tell her before firmly pressing the 'END CALL' button.

I lay my bag on the kitchen floor then make my way to the fridge, grabbing the gallon of milk and placing it on the island. "Morning."

Jonah hands me the Cinnamon Toast Crunch and places a kiss on my cheek. "Good morning!"

"Isn't someone happy this morning?" I laugh as I vert the cereal on the porcelain bowl.

"I am, very very happy," Jonah sings while doing the dishes.

I pour the milk, then place it back inside the fridge. "So, why are you very very happy this morning?"

"No reason." Pipes Jonah, a little too quick for my taste. He's definitely hiding something.

"Oh, no, Jonah Miller, I know you. What are hiding from me?!" I scream on his face.

"Okay! Okay! Her name is Claire."
