Hearing the knock on my door kind of startles me because Addie and Lucious have a key, and it's pretty late for anybody to be knocking on somebody's door.

I open the door slowly not wanting my head chopped off or anything. "Hello?" I ask still not fully aware of who is there so I open the door a little more and I'm actually blown away. I get a full view of the most beautiful boy ever. Boys don't like being called 'beautiful' but the boy I've laid my eyes on is pretty much the most beautiful boy ever. He has bright green eyes that could tell a story right then and there, dark fluffy brown hair that makes me wonder what type of product he uses because damn that is one giant fluff ball. Tattoos across both arms which is super hot! the boy also has a really nice jawline. Looking at his Jawline I also see a scar along his neck as well as a tiny scar just below his eye.

Once I'm fully done examining him, I bring my eyes to his eyes. He lifts his brow and shakes his head, lightly chuckling. "Hey my ball landed in your backyard do you mind getting it?'" he says, omg babe, he also has an Italian accent. Don't act dumb now Ivy.

"Yeah sure, hold on," I say turning around and walking to where the backyard is. His football is in the middle of the pool, great. After a few splashes to get the ball out and not trying to fall in, I finally get it. I walk to the kitchen to dry it off, I make my way to the door but then slip on my wet socks. I quickly get up not wanting that boy to see me. Making my way to the door I hand him the ball. "Thanks, I'm Damien," he says calmly "Ivy," I say looking straight in his eyes "Ivy fox" I only continue because it looked like he wanted more, great. This is the time I get kidnapped or hacked of everything I have.

"Well have a nice night Ivy Fox," Damien says breaking eye contact and walking away.

I go back inside and grab my laptop immediately. Don't call me crazy but I'm gonna look this dude up. Considering the fact that he looks my age and only gave me his first name which may not even be real, I don't have a lot of information. Besides no one from any high school looks like that especially not from the one I go to. I look him up and see absolutely nothing no "Damien's" from certain schools in my area, absolutely nothing.

I forget that I even do this and just continue watching "Vampire Diaries" but in my room instead.

At 7 am my alarm goes off. I drag myself out of bed and walk to the bathroom starting my morning routine. When I'm brushing my teeth I have really deep thoughts and my mind goes exactly to what happened last night. I know it's not a big deal but what if he thought I was weird looking at him like that. I am weird but that the besides the fact about what other people think. Whatever I finish up my routine because I could honestly care less what a random dude thinks.

(This is the outfit Ivy is going to wear to school)

Finishing up and finally making my way downstairs I skip breakfast because it just makes me want to throw up honestly. I grab my headphones and walk out the door. Listening to music makes me feel less scattered all the time. Keeping to yourself and having that image of 'alone' is great because without all the secrets, lies, backstabbing, betrayal, and all that crap it's just you. Music and book you can say are my therapy. I'm totally a fan of Chase Atlantic, The Neighborhood, Billie Eilish, my girl Ariana Grande, and the queen herself Rihanna.

I walk into school and head for my locker ignoring all the voices and chitchat. Grabbing my books for science, I lock eyes with someone familiar.

Damien

Damien, why would he be here? Oh, he is part of the new kid group. I see some people behind him indicating the other new kids. I give him a small smile because out of the corner of my eye Isabelle is approaching him.

Isabelle, one of Ryan's girls. Isabelle is so stuck up I'm surprised there is not a shoe coming out of her ass.

I turn around not wanting to watch Damien give in to Isabelle's bullshit. I'll still be eavesdropping on the conversation though.

I can hear her fake trip and catch on to Damien's shoulder.

"Oops sorry I just fell for you," Isabelle says, bro that is the most common line ever.

I look at Damien and see his disgust just on his face. He looks at me and winks.

"Yeah sorry I have somebody else in mind," he says still keeping eye contact with me

As soon as he says that I close my locker door and head for my class. No, no, no, no please don't mean me. What the hell we just met. Not even met, he just showed up on my front porch. I enter the class and sit in my usual spot all the way in the back. I read the lesson and take out what I need to begin. I need a distraction right now.

Boys don't give me much attention, even girls don't but I mean I can't blame them. I'm a nerd and loner. Being alone is not all that bad, sometimes you do have that overwhelming feeling that you are going to be alone for the rest of your life, but that's just my head speaking to me.

Classes go through quickly and by the time I know it lunch is here, finally.

I don't go to the cafeteria because there's too much going on in there. I walk out near the big oak tree where I normally spend lunch and read. I grab my headphones and begin reading.

Only a couple of minutes go by and the dagger scene in my book is being intruded on. I see 4 people approaching me. Damien is the first person I recognize and I don't know the other people.

"Hey, do you mind if we sit?" Damien says as he is starting to sit down.

"No, go ahead," I say, he doesn't give me much of a choice to say no.

"This is Lou and Milo"

"You can blame Milo for throwing the football in your backyard, he's kind of a klutz" Damien continues laughing out loud.

I chuckle a little bit "Nah, it's fine."

"Little shit," a dude that has blonde fluffy hair says, I believe that is Milo

"Hey, I'm Lou the only girl and by the way, they often fight a lot so don't get scared or weirded out." A girl in shiny long brown hair says, Lou, it fits her.

When I'm about to say something Milo punches Damien in the stomach. Not that rough though. Being in many foster homes and having kids in most of them, there are many possibilities of things happening to you. I got hit a lot and most of the other foster kids got hit too. Some of my nightmares often occur because of these memories. The screaming and yelling erupt in your head and there isn't much you can do about it. It has become normal for me to have these nightmares and flashbacks. I, of course, don't want this to happen to me but you don't have much of a choice once you get thrown into a foster home. If you have a bed and food, you're perfectly fine.

"Now I see what you mean," I say chuckling next to Lou

The bell rings, what the hell it wasn't even 5 minutes!!

I stand up and grab my stuff "Nice meeting you guys."

With that I walk away, I know I said I had no intention of meeting the new kids but it was kind of thrown in my face.

I go to the rest of my classes without seeing Damien and the rest of his friends. My lunch is in 4th period which means I only have 2 classes left.

The last bell rings, YES. I walk out of the building doors and make my way home finally getting to relax.

I open the front door and immediately go upstairs to change into pajamas and fall asleep. I'm so tired because the teachers assigned a ton of classwork and my brain can't even function to bring out a sentence. I promise you the best thing for me is sleep, unless you want to bring out a demon.

Hey guys, here's another chapter of "My secret"

Hope you enjoyed!

I'll include some pictures of what Lou, Milo, and Kai seem to look like in my imagination or just pictures the vibe of the character brings off. You can totally imagine them the way you like but this is just an add-on.

I also didn't correct any vocab mistakes or anything like that.
