    When I left, my mom was snoring on the couch.
    Once I got to the classroom , I slid into my desk just as the final bell rang. Jason smiled at me, and I sent a shy smile back as Mr. Franks took roll.
    “We have a new student.”
    I looked up to where Mr. Franks stood. I had been watching Jason, so I didn’t even notice that anybody else had co me in.
    Beside him stood a guy with the same color of black hair as Jason. His ey es were the same caramel color , in fact, if I didn’t know better, I’d say they looked like brothers – twins even. The only difference was the new guy had a much shorter hair cut, his short spikes sticking up all over.
    “If you would all please welcome Robbie.” Mr. Franks point ed to a seat near the front .
    I looked over at Jason. First, his expression was shock, but it quickly turned to anger. Then it happened again, his eyes turned black . The first day, I thought I had imagined it, but I didn’t. There he was, looking at Robbie with black eyes.
    I looked over at Robbie. His eyes were red as he looked back.
    I gasped loudly and the whole class looked up at me. I blinked, and R obbie and Jason’s eyes were once again their natural color.
    Everybody snickered at me, but Mr. Frank’s quickly got everybody’s attention on the lesson. My mind couldn’t be further away.
    I looked at Jason. His caramel colored eyes looked at me with concern and confusion. Really, had I imagined the whole thing?
    When the bell rang, I jumped in my seat. Everybody laughed as they walked past my desk. I just sighed and got up. Jason walked beside me. He looked at me cautiously before speaking.
    “Are you ok?” He asked.
    I cleared my throat. “I don’t think so actually.”
    “What is wrong?”
    “I think I’m… crazy ,” I whispered the word ‘crazy ’, though I was sure everybody knew it already. It’s got to be hereditary, right?
    He just laughed. “Sofia, you are not crazy.”
    “But… your eyes… and Robbie’s…” I cut off, not able to finish.
    Jason’s face looked panicked. “You could see that?”
    I nodded my head. “I mean, I saw it the first day you came here, but I thought I was just seeing things… and… I’ve been breaking things … with my mind . It’s not normal.”
    “I promise I’ll explain everything, I just…”
    Jason was cut off as Robbie walked up. “Hello, brother ,” he spoke.
    “Brother?” I asked, looking between the two, and then finally at Jason. “You never told me you had a brother.”
    “ Twin brother,” Robbie answered me, and then turned to Jason. “Got yourself a cute one, brother. Too bad she’s mine, and you know it.”
    “Could you not talk about me like I’m not here,” I waved my hand in his face. “And I’m not yours. In fact, I’ve never met you before.”
    “Ah, I’m hurt – you don’t remember me?” Robbie’s eyes turned red once more, and realization hit me.
    “You… You…” I tried not to cry. “You killed my dad.”
    “You do remember,” he smiled.
    I felt anger throughout my whole body. Above us, the light bulbs shattered. The sound was louder than I expected. I covered my head as broken glass fell around us. Whe n I looked up , the whole hallway was dark, and the glass doors that led to outside the school were shattered.
    My body felt like it wa s on fire. I looked at my hand. S team was literally rising from my skin. I looked at it in amazement.
    “I see you have n’t changed ,” Robbie laughed , and turned to Jason . “Feisty little thing , isn’t she? ”
    “Stay away from me,” I yelled at him .
    “Come on, sweetheart , you don’t mean that.” His voice disgusted me. “I can show you things you could have never dreamt of. I can rock your world.”
    “Robbie, stop,” Jason stepped in front of me. “Leave her alone. She’s not a toy you can mess with. She is a human being . I am in love with her.”
    I gasped, at his confession, and Robbie laughed. “ Oh how sweet, you love
