Always watching

Chloe almost gulped when she saw him staring at her with intense eyes, why was he staring at her though?

Was there something on her face or something?

Did he know her from somewhere?

Which in a way is impossible since she had never seen him before in her life, or did he hear about her from the news?

All these questions and more continued to plague her mind as she felt nothing but complete unease with his stone-cold look.

Speaking of eyes what she wanted to really know was if he had contacts on or not since his eyes could not be normal right?

Especially since black is not a normal colour to have on eyes.

Even now as the morning lesson rolled on she didn't understand it, she couldn't understand why he was looking at her at all to begin with?

Whether it was a discrete stare or not it still left her completely baffled.

After all there wasn't much about her that was interesting to look at, she was a plain teen who sadly to her shame wore dark clothes in hopes of getting people away from her since she was still grieving over her friend's death till this day.

She in truth hated wearing dark clothes but a week into wearing dark clothes and she had found herself wearing them non stop.

Using them as a clutch to help her through this dark time and saw no reason to wear bright normal colours like white or sea blue, given that it felt like there was no joy in her life after that night for it had ruined her.

In a way it was like the dark colours had allowed her to slightly blend in with the dark areas if it weren't for her light skin colour, but she cared not since the darkness almost gave her some comfort.

Even though the voices had bothered nonstop and speaking of the voices…

Chloe's eyes almost went wide while a gasp nearly left her parted lips as realization hit her- she couldn't hear them!

"What was going on? Why can't I hear them? It's like they went away… but are they? Are they really gone?" Chloe thought in shock almost feeling elevated and thrilled for this news that she wanted to jump up and cheer with glee since this had never happened before.

But instead stopped herself from cheering since it would make her look like an idiot in class and cause unwanted attention.

What had caused the voices to go silent though?

Did something spook them off?

Whatever happened she was grateful that it caused the voices to leave.

Chloe remained sitting with a mental smile not caring that Daniel was staring at her still since she was in a happy mood to be bothered now, in fact she would have said 'stare all you like, nothing you can do can ruin my mood' but refrained from doing so in case something did ruin her mood.

Now turning her attention to the teacher she took down notes diligently until she heard the bell for the next class, leaving her almost whining at the rude interruption.

However she kept silent regardless since it meant she had to leave to her next class – Art given she had two subjects she had planned to study this year.

On the other hand she was relieved that she could go to a different class since that means she would hopefully be able to avoid his gaze since he sat in different seats.

Getting up hastily Chloe grabbed her bag and packed up her book and pen before making her way out the room, not caring that most of her class had begun to swarm around the new student.

At first Chloe felt some sympathy for him giving her situation with the bullying and false insults, however given that this would lead to an uncomfortable situation after that for the both of them had caused her to think otherwise.

After all this wasn't her problem so why should she help?

That and she wanted to put some distance because if their eyes were to ever meet, it would lead her into staring at him once more.

As she left the room Chloe could only be relieved in the fact that the people in her class's attention was drawn to someone other than her.

So instead of looking at a gift horse in the mouth she took this time to rush to the second floor where her next lesson was being held.

She was also thankful that only three were only interested in taking science or were only picking one subject since that would not end well for her at all.

The moment she entered the classroom though Chloe had winced and released a sharp whine as she placed sent her right hand to her the side of her head.

What was going on?

Why did she suddenly feel pain?

"Things are not so easily concealed" a cryptic voice whispered.

Chloe immediately tensed up and almost felt herself cry from the voice for it's voice was hushed just like the other voices she could hear before they went silent.

"We are always watching you" hearing this made Chloe choke up nearly as she forced herself to her seat.

"You are never alone" the other voice said only it didn't matter for they all sounded the same as the previous one that she couldn't tell if it was the same voice or not.

Nor could she tell if it was trying to be comforting or not, either ways she was anything but comfortable no matter what they say.
