"I don't know." I just say, because I don't want to talk about something that is going to end up in someone else ears. I like my privacy, and Andrea is not good to keep her big mouth shut.

"Well, stop." She warns me with her brown eyes. I look around not sure about why I can't watch her. It's not like Andrea can force me to not look at the... strong girl that is coming this way right now.

"Andrea, let my arm go." I shake my arm out of her grip and take a deep breath. Then I see tense eyes on me for a quick moment as she walks pass us. God, she has amazing eyes. Brown in the middle and blue around. Still, she seems so focused. There is no smile, no warmth in her eyes. It's kind of sad to watch, but most of all that scar on her neck. It's almost three inches long.

"You can't look at her." Andrea says angry as she drags me by the shirt, to turn my back to the girl with the hazel eyes.

"Why not?" I ask very annoyed as I fix my shirt. Andrea slaps my hands, which makes me watch her with fury. Can't I even put my shirt back in place without her being irritated?

"Because," She waves her hands up and down, as she looks at the girl she seem scared of.

"She is," I am waiting for Andrea to find the perfect word as she stammer.

"Bad." I chuckle aloud and put my hand over my mouth. Bad, really there are so many words and bad, was the first thing that popped up.

"How can she be bad?" I wonder. Still trying to hide the laugh that is making my stomach hurt.

"She, Dandy, hurt someone very badly," the bad word again, seriously.

"That girl ended up in the hospital and didn't come back, and Dandy was suspended for months." She explains whispering. I just shake my head, not believing it. She might be tall and strong, but I can't picture her hurt someone. Well, she might have the look on her face to do so, but no. Or maybe it is what I like to think. That she is innocent. I can't judge someone I haven't met. It's wrong.

"Calm down, Andrea," I roll my eyes. Damn she is so exhausting.

"She seems ok... is her name really Dandy?" I ask changing the subject.

"Yeah." She says obvious, and I smile. It's a nice name and it fits her perfectly. I mean, she has this blueness of her and I have always seen the name Dandy as blue. Might be weird, but I guess I have seen that name with something blue. I shrug of my own thoughts. Maybe it was her eyes with that blue color. That made the name fit her so well.

"Just stay away from her." Andrea points at me, warning. I roll my eyes as I smile with a little laugh.

"I don't even know her!" I shout as she starts rushing down the hallway.

"Keep it that way!" She yells back, waving her hand not even watching me. I shake my head as I turn back to the locker and noticing that there is no one here. I sigh, that was why she was in a hurry.

"Dammit." I mutter as I run to my locker, looking for my books and where the hell I am supposed to be in the next class. Which is starting right now. There is no one that can have a worse day than me right now. A hopeless and over protective cousin, that is making my head explode. The school that is forcing me to run, which might be good for soccer.

There was one good thing though, the girl that is very interesting to me. Even though, most are afraid of her, no wonder when she has that stupid rumor to her name. I can't really look past that, but I don't know her. She might be what my ignorant cousin says or Dandy might be the person I think by the look of it. That might not be much, since she has that same empty expression on her face. I can't decide if that is sad or worrying. There is not much I can say about that, since I have only seen her a couple of times. I hope those are not the only glimpse I am going to get off her.

"Hi, mom." I smile as come in the front door. Seeing her sitting on the couch with her reading glasses on her nose as she looks up from her book.

"Hi, honey." She says glad, pushing her blond hair behind her ear. I sit down next to her and rest my head on her shoulder, after a long, running day at school. My legs hurt so much and I am so tired.

"My ears, mom, I need new ears." I whine and she kiss the top of my head.

"Andrea is not that bad." She says as she turns the page on her big book.

"Are we talking about the same Andrea?" I ask and she roll her eyes.

"Yes, honey. We are talking about your cousin." She says way too busy with her book.

"If she comes, tell her that I am hanging out with Dandy." I grin as I jump out of the couch, but fall back down as my mom drag me by the shirt. Do people not like my shirt today? I mean, it looks just like any other shirt.

"Who's Dandy?" She asks with a raised eyebrow and I turn on my defense mechanism as I wave my hands.

"No one." I say and try to get out of the couch again, but maybe I should take off my shirt. Since they are all, pulling it today. I fall back down next to her and sigh.

"Who is Dandy?" She asks more serious, which I roll my eyes too.

"Dandy is just a girl at school that Andrea, and maybe most, are scared of." I shrug, because the whole thing is stupid.

"Is there a reason for them to be scared?" She asks now with her eyes down in the book.

"No, not really." I say, because I am telling my opinion. There is not much to back up with what I mean. Since I just saw Dandy today, but there is more to someone than you see.

"Okay." My mom just says, too lost in the book to care. I roll my eyes as I step out of the couch and find my way up to my messy room. I know, but it's been only some few days. Since we moved in and I haven't had time to take most of my things out of the boxes yet.

They are stranded on the floor, like ice blocks. I find my way through the maze and jump down in the bed. Landing on my stomach with my face buried in the duvet. It's been a tiring day, with complaining from my cousin and from running around the hallways like an idiot. Just to find the right door.

Hope it is better tomorrow. I need a better strategy. Maybe I should come earlier and look around. Since no, one bothered to show me anything. That sounds like a good plan, even though I have to kick my own ass out of the bed. Perhaps I find some nice hiding places from my cousin after a while. I think I need that if I am going to survive.
