pretend that he wasn't lying and I did take a look around. I looked at the people; they were all beautiful people with long hair like mine and perfectly manicured nails. They also had freshness of smells surround all of them. I listened to the man at the front of a line of people.
“Why can’t we come in this restaurant!?” he yelled.
“Special people only,” the manager said rather calmly. Special people? I didn’t pay attention to Johnny who was dreamily looking into my eyes. I looked around once again, I looked at the people, I looked at Johnny and then myself.
“The people here are demons,” I realized.
He nodded. “And every night at 9:10 is lift off,” he said. “Get ready for it. 3” he counted.
“Wait?”
“2” he counted again.
“What is lift off?”
“1” The roof off the building disappeared.

He held my hand. “Come on let’s go,” he said. We both grew wings.
“Aah!” I yelled. My wings began to soar and I was able to let go of his hands. “Oh my gosh!” I yelled. “This is unbelievable!” But this was definitely happening. I hoped this was not a dream. I once had a dream where I stole the last chocolate pudding and put it on my dresser and when I woke up it was gone. If what was happening then would happen now I would just begin to cry.
“All that awkwardness paid off huh!?” yelled Johnny.
I laughed softly, but I'm sure he couldn't hear it over all the wind. “Sure did!” I yelled back.
Soon enough we landed back into the restaurant, everyone did. Later on he drove me home and he walked me to my front porch. At this point you would be waiting for a first kiss, but I could wait.
“Thanks,” I said. “For such a wonderful night, you know who gets to fly in this world? I wanted to let you know this is the best thing that has ever happened in my life.”
He nodded. “Good.”
All night I could tell he wasn’t really into me so I said, “I hope we will be...good friends for a long time.”
His eyes widened. “Oh um… ok,” he said. “You know unless, you want to be a little-”
“More than friends?” I said to complete his sentence.
He gulped. “Well actually I was going to say,” he said. I felt a little embarrassed to know that I completed his sentence the wrong way. “I was just gonna say-” he stopped his sentence short and took his hands to my face. “That was actually exactly

what I was going to say.” And then he closed his eyes while mine were anxiously open, and he kissed me, lips warm to the touch. I waved good bye and closed my door behind me.
I screamed on the top of my lungs and I had a feeling that he’d heard me. I ran around my kitchen a million times just from the excitement that he kissed me. Never did I think that I would be more than friends with anyone

. I began to dress into my night clothes and I lied in my bed. It took me an hour to fall asleep, it was frightening thinking that why would he want to be friends with me and then wants to go out with me and then want to kiss me? I mean no one wants to kiss me ever!
“Aah!” I screamed so excitedly. And thankfully, I was knocked out.

Being Next


It was a Saturday morning and my mother still hadn’t come home for all of these weeks. I took my house phone and called her number. The phone began to ring slowly.
“Hello?” she yelled.
“Mom?” I said.
“Hey! What’s up? I’m in a club in Alaska! It’s freezing! Very loud too. What’s going on, are you ok?”
I nodded but remembered that she couldn’t tell I was nodding. “Yes mom, everything is fine. I went on a date last night.”
She seemed really happy right now. (Every girl had to mention that they went on a date to their mother.) “Oh my goodness!” she yelled. “Was it fun?” I accidentally nodded again.
“Yeah mom, it was enjoyable.”
“Ok,” she said. “What are you going to do today?” I didn’t really have a plan today.
“Maybe I'll say hi to Kelly today, I think she would like to hear from me, she has been a little worried about me. Well, I love you, I'll call you later ok?” I hung up. I grabbed some clothes on and stepped out the front door. I rode my bike over to Kelly’s house hoping that she would still accept me as her friend.
Once I got there I knocked on her door and pressed on the doorbell. Adam opened the door drinking soda with swim trunks on. “What do you want demon?” he asked.
“Actually,” I said. “I want

Kelly.”
Startlingly, he put his hand to my throat in an instant motion. “You will never get Kelly!” he yelled.
I could hardly speak. “I meant… I… want to talk… with her,” I said struggling. He let go of my neck. I held my hand there for a moment trying to have my esophagus open up again. I breathed heavily.
“Kelly!” he yelled. “Erica wants to talk to you!” Kelly walked up with her bathing suit on.
“Hey Kelly,” I said. “Can we talk in private?”
She nodded and stepped out front. “I’m not aloud to talk to demons ok, so make it quick before we get caught.” She just answered my question. I was going to ask why we can’t still be friends.
“Why aren’t you aloud to talk to demons?”
She sighed. “I don’t-” she said. “My family thinks they’re going to kill us one day for our sins, but your kind doesn't understand, we are better now.” My kind?

She walked away and I heard a horn. Behind me was the boy that I named riding a bicycle.
“Hey!” he yelled. I waved. “You know when I left yesterday, my car broke down.”
“Oh I’m sorry I didn’t notice,” I started. “I was too obsessed-” I stopped.
He parked his bike. “What?” he asked. What do you think idiot!? It was his stupid kiss I was obsessed with.
“Nothing,” I answered. “Just this new phone my mom sent me.” I lied. “Ooh, interesting, let me see.” I shook my head.
“No, I left it at home to charge.”
He nodded understandingly. “So what’s up with Kelly?” he asked. By the way he was acting; he acted as though he never even kissed me before. Maybe if I took my mind off of this I could be less preoccupied.
“Well Kelly told me we could no longer be friends.” I sighed.
“Well you have me don’t you?” he asked.
“Yeah,” I said smiling. “I guess I do.”
“I can do both parts.” He said. “I can be your boyfriend and your best friend.” He had definitely remembered the kiss we shared.


I agreed to this, acting as if I wasn't surprised. “You will be my...” I murmured the two syllables, “And my best friend.”
He moved in to kiss me until he stopped to the sound of Kelly yelling my name. “Are you serious?” she said walking out of her house all wet. Johnny stood in front of me with his hand stopping Kelly from coming any closer.
“Kelly please,” he said. Kelly ran up to him and slowly bit his arm with teeth sharpened, fangs springing out.
“Damn!” he yelled. “Why?!” He fell to the ground leaving me behind. My eyes slowly turned to a dark violet; she could tell I was angry.
“Are you seriously going out with this guy,” she yelled. “This evil, cheap child that could slowly be turning you into something you don’t want to be?” I didn’t listen to her. “Owlings may not be angels but we are definitely similar, you need to be one of us before you become too powerful to destroy!”
She took my arm but I shook it off. “No,” I said. I took Jonathan’s arm around my back. He groaned and looked towards Kelly.
“Owlings suck, YOU suck,” He said. “If I had the strength I would’ve killed you already! You would’ve been done.”
“Calm down,” I whispered. His eyes went red a lot faster than mine when they turn purple. He took his arm away from me as I slowly watched it heal. It was unbelievable and he took my hand and approached Kelly.
“Kill her, or do something to hurt her.” He commanded me. I looked at him confused. “You can never make it through life without learning to defend yourself or others from owlings.”
“Do it Erica,” Kelly said teasing me. I felt under pressure.
“Uh…” I began. I started in boxing position.
Kelly laughed. “Good?” I asked Johnny.
“What ever you are comfortable with,” he said kind of chuckling at the same time. I didn’t want to seem stupid but I thought of the things her and her brother did to Johnny. I was even angrier than before. I could feel my teeth sharpen. I felt my long straight hair curl up a little bit. This all happened from the tenseness. My nails grew to their usual five inches. Kelly finally stopped smiling. My hair straightened out again. What was going on?
I gulped and felt a sudden urge to aim at her arm and her eye. This was only because this is where they aimed at on Jonathan. I would do sincerely anything for him. I went in for the kill; I waved my long sharp
