I stood outside the principle's office with Aidan. James and Jack were doing other things and Kyra and Kyle were in another school.
Here, we have different surnames. So I'm now Alecxis Anderson. And Aidan was Aidan Davis, no relation of Alecxis Anderson.
"Here we go." I breathed.
"Calm down. It's not like he's going to bite your head off." Aidan reassured me.
"Whatever. When we get out of this, I don't know you. You don't know me. Ok?"
"Ok."

I was in Home Economics at the moment.
I could hear whispers among other students but I ignored the negative comments.
Class didn't go fast. It went very slow. By the time it was over, I could have done about nine reports for H.Q. but no. I have to stay in school.
Look on the bright side, at least I get a do over.
"Hey Alecxis!" Mika called my name from down the hall.
"Hi Mika! How's it going?" I asked.
"Good. Why do you keep leaving and coming back?"
"Eh. Well, my mom and dad are divorced and since I'm an only child, I go backwards and forwards." I lied.
I hated lying and I hated lying about my mom and dad. I missed my mom terribly and I hate my dad with all my heart, for ditching us when mom died giving birth to Kyra.
"Oh. Sorry, I forgot."
"No. It's fine."
"Well, let's go get lunch!" Mika grabbed my hand and dragged me to the cafeteria.
When we stepped into the room, I immediately saw Aidan. He was a popular guy here so he was always surrounded by others.
Of course, when we are here, Aidan is handsome, fantastic at sports, gets good grades and all of that. I'm a straight A student but less popular. I am athletic, but compared to Aidan, I'm not that good.
This is all just fake because in real life, when we have matches in Magic Academy, everyone plays like champions. Here on Earth, if we were to play at our best, we'd be too fast, too skilled and too good to be matched.
That's why we fake it all.
"Earth to Alecxis!" Mika was waving a hand in my face.
"What?" I questioned.
"You spaced out while looking at Aidan. I think that-"
"NO!" I shouted, afraid she'd say what I think she'd say.
"Ok ok. Sorry. It's just whenever you space out, it's when you stare at Aidan."
God. If only she knew.
"It's nothing." I said, trying to sound convincing.
"Alright.. Anyway, we'd better get our food."

I was at the gym with Mika. We had most of our classes together, except Maths and English.
"We're gunna win! We have you AND Aidan!" Mika cheered.
We were about to play a game of dodge ball. On my team was:
Myself
Mika
Aidan
Carl
Samantha
Alana
Julia
Victor
Joey
Kelly
Ethan
Tori
Daniel
Dante
Amber
We had some of the best players.
"Everyone! Get into your positions!" Coach shouted. "Three. Two. One. Go!"
We all ran into the middle to grab the balls. I got two and passed one to Mika.
I accidentally bumped into Aidan and when I said sorry, I heard a girl near us hiss at me.
We took out five of the opposing team members in two minutes.
"Alecxis! Pass!" Aidan called.
I passed Aidan a ball, earning myself a glare from the head cheerleader, Samantha.
The game ended and we won.
"High five!" Mika cheered.
"High five." I said, giving my best friend a high five.
I had one more class until it was finally home time.
~~~~
"Cya tomorrow?" Mika asked as we walked out of the school grounds.
"Cya tomorrow." I confirmed.
"Great! Huh?" Mika peered over my shoulder.
"What?" I questioned, my eyes darting to where Mika was looking.
"He's looking at you Alecxis." my best friend cooed.
"No. He's not." I said, picking up the pace.
Myself and Aidan go different directions to throw people off. We meet up a a small park that's far enough for us not to be followed and we go home together from there.
"Alecxis! Wait up!" Mika was running just to catch up with my walking pace.
"Cya you later Mika!" I called, running off.
I managed to lose Mika by twisting through the streets, or she gave up. I came to the park and waited. I was early so I was expecting to wait for maybe ten minutes.
-Aidan's P.O.V.-
I looked at my watch.
I should be going now...
"Samantha, can you let go of me?" I asked in an irritated tone.
I was pissed at her because I heard what herself and her friends said about my sister. Or Alecxis Anderson. Anyway point is, since this never happened before, I'm not going to let it start now.
"Do I have to?"
"Yes."
She sighed but let go.
I raced off but slowed once I was out of sight and earshot.
"Stupid girl.." I muttered.
If anyone at the school knew who myself and Alecxis were and what kind of power we possessed, they'd freak. Humans tended to try and kill what they can't understand and fear.
I glanced at my watch. I was so late. Alecxis would've gone home by now as school had ended over half and hour ago.
"Looks like I'm walking home alone today."
~~~~
I got home and was about to open the door when someone else beat me to it.
"Where were you twenty minutes ago?!" Alecxis asked angrily.
"I was dealing with Samantha." I replied.
"Well, next time give me a heads up if you're gunna be that late. I waited for twenty five in the park then gave up. I thought you were kidnapped but then I realized, who could kidnap you?" a small smile appeared on her face. "Come on then."
I stepped inside the hallway.
"Sorry Alecxis. I would've but I had to do something." I told my younger sister.
"What was it? What was so important that you decided it was ok to ditch me?"
"Alecxis. I did't mean to leave you hanging like that-"
"But you did."
"Let me finish."
"Then finish."
"Ok." I explained what I was doing and why to her.
"Oh god. Don't go yandere on me just because of some girls whispering mean things about me." Alecxis shook her head.
"I won't. I promise." I said.
"Good. I don't want to come home to see my brother covered in blood of a victim."
"You've been reading too much of that stuff since we came here." I told her.
"What? There's nothing else to do here. I mean, hanging out with friend IS an option but no one's free these days."
"Alright. Whatever you say. Now, I have homework to do so call me when dinner's ready." I said, walking over to the stairs.
"That's your job!"
"Not anymore." I ran upstairs before Alecxis could protest.
