Lyra POV “Asshole! Get out of my bed!” I yelled, groaning to my brother who plop himself to my bed again. He have been annoying me since 15 minutes while I am taking my beauty rest. I haven’t slept last night because of how busy I was yesterday, packing my clothes to put them in my suitcase. “I will, if you get out of this s**t. We need to go to school so that we can go home early today.” He said crossing his arms, stopping himself to move in my bed. I groan. I pulled the blanket closer to my body and mumble a “hmmm” to him. “Okay then.” I chuckled lightly when I felt his presence gone in my room, trying not to grin because I won again. Peeking my one eye, I heard his heavy footsteps fading little by little. I know he’ll give up. He knows me too well to not disturb me every morning without hearing my alarm clo- *Lick* What was that wet feeling? *Lick* Again? Opening my one eye, I immediately got up as my eyes widened in surprise, seeing Fred licking my whole face with his body covered in dirt. “EWW!” I wipe my face to remove the dog’s saliva, and I saw his mouth with food on his tongue. Urgh! Why did I buy Fred again? Right. To wake Levi every morning but know, he’s returning the favor. Great. “So…are you waking up?” he smirked at me which I glare in return. Swatting my blanket away from my body, I punch Levi on his shoulder making him hiss in pain. “Geez, you’re violent,” He rubs his shoulder, “I’m just trying to help you.” He narrowed his eyes at me as I return the same. “Thanks. You really do help me so much.” I sarcastically said. “Get the hell out of my room before I shove Fred in your throat, hearing him howling inside of your body,” I pushed him out of my room but I can’t. He’s too strong and heavy. I don’t know why boys had a body like a rock. We can’t carry them like they carrying girls. “Nice try big sis. But fine, I’ll see you in 30 minutes.” Great. 30 minutes? What. The. Hell. “Fine. Shoo! Wait me downstairs.” He went out of my room with Fred on his arms, ruffling his head which makes me frowned.  Really? How did they end up being friends? Last time I check they hated each other. That freaking little brother of mine, places a potion in my dog’s food to made them both closed! Now, my dog already likes him, I can’t order him to wake my little brother every morning by chewing his shirt. So sad. I pulled myself to the bathroom to take a bath since I we still need to go to school to complete our requirements. I’m a senior student who will be going to graduate next week. Sadly, I can’t attend to the ceremony since we will go to move to the other town today. My parents were talking about it since last month. I don’t know the reason why do we need to move but it is fine for me. Yet, I’m still confused at the time. We already happy in this town and to this house, I actually have a big room because I am the oldest child than with Levi. But he doesn’t complain. Basically, I have been giving my brother whatever he wants because I am working to my mother’s café. He complains sometimes when I’ve got new stuff from my parents because of their business trip in another country. Still, he loves me. Our mother owns a popular café in this town, because I wanted to help my mom was so happy when I volunteered myself to help. But since we’re going to move, my mom sold the café last week and told me that she built a café in Poris Town before. I honestly don’t know about that. After 15 minutes, I got out in the bathroom and went towards my closet to get a white jeans and black t-shirt. When I’m done, I get my backpack on my study table and run down downstairs just to greet with my brother’s presence playing with MY dog. Okay? “When did you get closed to Fred?” I asked, placing my hands on my hips. “Since he played with me when I got bored waiting for you last week because of your promise.” He grins and ruffles Fred head. My face falls for a moment and my eyes softened. I didn’t mean it, to be honest. I know I shouldn’t promise him that I will be early that day to have our traditional bond every Saturday. But because of struggle that happened to the café, I went home late seeing him snoring on the couch with Fred. “I’m sorry for making you wait that time.” I apologized, sitting beside him and lean my head on his broad shoulder. “It’s okay, Ly. I understand. I’m actually proud to call you as my sister since you are helping our parents to their business and getting whatever we needed without require to our parents.” He wraps his arms on me, kissing my forehead. Aww…this is what I’ve liked to my little brother. He’s so sweet of me and also a caring person even if he was a jerk sometimes. Still, I loved him. “Okay, let’s stop this drama. We should go to school before we get late.” I smiled kissing his cheek. He blushed of what I have done which makes me chuckle because of how red his face was. My brother is a player, that’s the totally fact. But he respects me so much. He was a shy teenage boy when I’m around him especially when I’m uttering cheesy things to him. He blushes and stutters whatever I say something sweet towards him AND when I’m doing something stuff like hugging, kissing his cheeks or forehead. “Fine. Let’s go!” He pulled Fred away to him and professed a goodbye into him. We exited the house and lock the front door. Our parents were already on their business earlier, we will be seeing them later after school. We hoop on to my car seeing my brother opened the passenger’s seat and smiled at me when we both inside the car. “I’m jealous that you have a car rather than me.” He pouts, causing me to laugh. “You can have my car when we arrive in Poris.” I winked, starting the engine. “Really?!” “Yes. Now, ready to finish your day to Valencia High?” I asked, smirking at him. “Hell yeah! Bye old girls, hello new girls!” He exclaimed and mentally rolled my eyes, roaring the car towards the school. * * My feet hurt. I’ve been walking in the hallway ever since 20 minutes to find Mr. Jacobs to get my two books that he borrowed to me last week. One hour to go and I will out of this place. But Mr. Jacobs are no-where to be found. I really need to get my books before my father will get mad at me. Those books were from my father, I haven’t read it yet since I have no time this year so when Mr. Jacobs interested into it, I let him borrow it for a while. I heard giggles near my direction and saw junior girls, talking about s*x they’ve shared to their boyfriends last night. Honestly, how can they manage losing their virginity in such a young age? Look at me. I am already 18 who is turning 19 next 5 months but still a virgin. I am proud to yell it and tell to everyone that I still have my v-card with my chin raised so high. I’ll lose it when the time comes. My head snap towards them when they started whispering something about me. I honestly hate people gossiping something about me especially when it comes to my little brother. I am not popular, my brother does. They just knew me being his overprotective and lovable sister of him. So girls who have obsession into him, they come running behind my back just to grab some information about him.  “She’s Lyra Summers, right? The older sister of Levi Summers?” Asked the brunette haired girl, who is wearing a short skirt matching a white crop top. “Yep. Both of the Summer siblings got a good gene, right? They said their parents are also a good looking person. Even though you let them wear rag clothes, the outfit will still suit to them.” The straight black haired girl said, nodding her head looking up and down at me. Okay, I felt uncomfortable to their words. Actually, I’m not accepting myself being a good looking person. Yes, everyone says I am. But no. They just saw me beautiful because of my physical appearance, I actually want them to see me and compliment me that I am beautiful inside not just on my outside. “But I heard something, they will be going to move in other town this week…perhaps today? I hope they won’t. I haven’t met her brother yet and my brother is also wants her.” The other one said but I ignore them, walking pass them faster than I was before. Boys inside of this campus were trying to hit on me. They also trying to get me on their beds but sorry, I have my own respect. My eyes hit to a gray haired person, holding two mathematics books and my lips widened in happiness when I saw the person I have been looking for. “Mr. Jacobs!” I yelled, catching his attention. H e looked towards me and a smile creep on his face, stopping his track so that I can catch up with him. “Lyra, why aren’t you in your class?” He asked, fixing his glasses. “Mrs. Kleah ‘s husband called and said that they have an emergency to her house so that she dismissed us early today.” I answer, stopping in front of him. “Oh, so she’s the teacher that they’ve been talking about.” I nodded my head, “What brings you here, by the way?” “If you don’t mind, I need my books back. We’re moving in a hour, so I don’t have time to go back here next week to get it.” I said, smiling lightly at him. “Right. Right. Sorry I forgot about that. Here, follow me.” He opens the door to his room, entering as he goes towards his shelves where all books are properly fixed on its place. My eyes scanned the room and there’s a lot changes got in here. It’s different than before. The room is neath and relaxing because of the color of the walls. I feel my heart pumping so fast and my eyes amazed seeing books every corner but one thing got my eyes. The books of werewolf collection hit my eyes, lying in a small white table besides the white board. I feel my own body dragging my feet towards it but stop in my track when I heard Mr. Jacobs cleared his throat. “Here’s your books.” He handed me the books, but my eyes still glued into the small table where the werewolf stories had been sitting on. “You like werewolves?” He asked making me look at him. “I do kinda have interest with them. They kind of… mysterious to me.” I said, touching the first book with my finger tips. “Why would you think that they are mysterious?” He steps forward, getting the book that I’ve been touching. I sigh, “I wanted to see their kind. Even if they aren’t exist in the world-“ “If you believed, there had been.” He cuts me, as furrows my brow in confusion. BELIEVE IT OR NOT, THEY HAVE BEEN. What does that mean? “What do you mean, Mr. Jacobs?”
