In A Different Time | COMPLETED

Mistakes

After breakfast Payton walked with the gang to the classroom blocks. They normally kept getting stares left and right, yeah their group was the most unusual group. An angel a vampire a werewolf a banshee a witch a merman and the centre of all the attention the new girl, the hybrid angel vampire.

“Do you normally get all these stares?” Payton asked everyone out of curiousity. It was as though they were the centre of attention.

Amber shook her head in disapproval closing the distance between her and the tall girl she spoke. “Not like this, why just curious as to what you are and why you’re hanging with the us.”

“Is there a problem with hanging with you guys?” her tone was ever more curious, Payton had to to know.

“None at all we are just really different from friend groups and too hot to not f**k eachother.” Dahlia squealed.

“So very hot.” Dixie added a comment while staring at Amber with full admiration.

Keelin held onto his boyfriend with a wide smile, “Totally but we’re f*****g and you’re—” he was referring to the two other girls but he didn’t have a chance to finish when Dixie interrupted.

“We’re just different, Amber our stop.” she bite her lower lip.

“But that’s the restroom.” Ralph questioned the two girl so did everyone else in the group.

Amber threw her arm over Dixie shoulder whispering something in her ear, Dixie gave her a shy nod. She looked at her friends with a friendly smile, “We have something to do.”

“Together?” Jaan raised his eyebrows at them. The two girls both ignored the question then they ran into the bathroom leaving everyone. “They are finally sleeping together.” Jaan added.

“It tool them long enough now we just have to wait until they’re ready to tell us.” Dahlia backed his theory up so which meant Payton wasn’t the only one who saw the way they acted and looked at eachother.

“Amber and Dixie are not sleeping together.” of course Ralph would refuse the obvious he always did. Everyone rolled their eyes at him even Payton.

“I’ve been here only one day and I see it.” Payton pointed out which got Ralph a bit pissed.

“He is always denies. Anyway this is our stop bye.” Dahlia grabbed Keelin by his arm pulling him towards the classroom. Keelin gave Jaan one last peck before he gladly followed Dahlia.

Payton looked at both the guys she was left with, “Why are they going to the same class?” they kept walking to the end of the hall.

“Wolves transform right so do mermaids they are just taught how to and how long to keep their form. Banshees are a few here about four they are taught magic with the witches.” Jaan explained

“While us, Vampires and angels are both taught together. Like everyone else at Amidst we learn with one different species.” Ralph added.

Payton gave them a nod. She followed the two guys into the classroom. She seat down beside Jaan and Ralph, the amount of eyes that were on her were annoying.

She rested her head on the desk then sighed, Jaan comforted with a light tap on the back she would get used to it soon and they would stop.

“Hello Class!” Mr. Derek entered the classroom in a great mood like all other days. He got his greets from all the students.

When he spotted Payton he gave her a light smile his eyes trailed off to the rest. “I got great news. We’ve got an additional to the class to the vampires and Angels.” gasps vane from all corners of the room, as if the attention was not enough Mr. Derek further spoke gesturing for her to stand.

When she did he introduced her to everyone, “Payton Kent, be kind.” those last words were addressed to everyone as Payton sat still a bunch of eyes on her.

“So today’s lesson we’re going to focus on mind reading. Everyone have a partner.” he began the lesson pairing everyone up. Payton got paired up with Tina she was a vampire and Jaan and Ralph were most certainly partners.

“Remember we don’t do this for selfish gains. Don’t go into someone’s mind to see if they have a crush on you, okay.” he received a wave of laughter from his students.

“What if it’s a life and death situation.” a random student asked Payton couldn’t see where who asked but it sounded masculine.

Mr. Derek thought about it, “Then you could.” he still sounded unsure he never liked it at all.

“Yeah...” Tina asked leaning further to her desk she added, “So finding out if someone has a crush on you is a life and death situation sir.” she was just doing that to cause a little trouble like she always did. Tina was not a trouble marker at all not in the slightest she just loved pricking on people’s nerves, she always did it to teachers.

Mr. Derek sighed it was too early to get at this with her, “It’s private.” that’s all he said before continuing with the lesson. “Every one close your eyes take a deep breath, in and out a couple of times. Then channel your energy on your partner, one at a time first.” he explained.

Payton turned to Tina, “You’ll go first it should I?”

“I would like to see you try.” she dared Payton with a devilish grin on. Tina was always daring at everything, why no one knew but only her. Payton sighed then gave her a nod.

“Just push on the lighter memories don’t go deep at all.” Mr. Derek always thought it was rude to go into someone’s mind and prey on their information. Everyone had a secret they held onto he never wanted anyone so do that cause they would most certainly use them against eachother.

The two girls looked at each other like the rest of the class, Payton closed her eyes taking big breathes. After the little meditation she began focusing on Tina.

The ones being read had a part to play putting up a fight trying to block them. With both girls facing eachother with their eyes closed Payton. Tina really did a good job at keeping her mind out of reach but Payton eventually got it.

She stood in a white walked room with a lot of doors lined up from right to left. She walked over to the room she was most close to.

The room was felt lively, a young chubby little girl sat their her eyes shone with joy as a motherly figure appeared. “Mommy your home!” she hugged the lady and they embraced eachother. Payton took it as a queue to leave so she did.

She walked down the hall to the very last door it was painted white like every other door so she opened it.

The room was dark it felt empty at the corner of the room stood a girl crying to herself. Payton didn’t leave she walked up to the girl and sat in front of her with her legs crossed, she patted her light untill the girl looked up. Her chubby cheeks had streams of tears, she was the grown up version of the little girl in the first room.

The pain in her green eyes were as broad as daylight, she was wiped the tears away that’s when everything fell apart. The girl vanished and the room was shaking.

Payton opened her eyes to find a screaming Tina not the two she saw, this was the much older Tina. “What’s your problem!” she hissed at Payton pain in her eyes, she didn’t understand how she didn’t see it earlier but her green eyes were filled in pain.

“Tina Payton, everything okay?” Mr. Derek asked the two girls, Payton who was still looking at her partner with sad eyes.

“No, I would like to be excused.” tins didn’t wait for her to be excused she stormed out of the class. Mr. Derek still looked confused Payton walked up to him, “I’ll go after her.” then she two was out of the class.
