Lucinda's Boyfriend Is A Jerk

It was midnight and there was knock at my door. Cautiously I opened it.

A huge grey dog almost flattened me, followed by his owner, who was in SpongeBob pyjamas. 

"I couldn't sleep," he said, running a hand threw his messy hair. Sighing, I let him in. This happened almost every night and secretly I believed he was a little afraid of the dark.

"What was that?" he asked, settling under the covers.

"Me, getting into bed."

"No, that heavy breathing sound."

"That's your dog."

The bed creaked slightly as I got comfortable. I could feel Jake tensing up. He pulled me closer to him and wrapped his arms around me like a teddy bear. I instantly felt warm, despite the freezing temperature of my room.

It was normally cold at night. Most nights I lay shivering under the covers; over times, Jake and I lay huddled like penguins with Wolf warming our feet. 

If we were freezing, I wonder how Lucifer felt, growing up in hell and all. To him, it must've feel like the north pole. I dreaded to think what it must be like in winter.


The sun leaked through the curtains as the sun rose. We lay still for a while, not wanting to get up. Then Jake removed his arms from around me and sat up. His curls were sticking up in random places and he still looked quite tired. Calling Wolf, he left to get ready for breakfast.

Once I was dressed, I wondered downstairs for breakfast. The busy chatter filled the room. Indigo flew beside me, as I sat between Ethan and Tom. 

Indigo eyed Megan's mantis, suspiciously. It was poking out of her top pocket, it's pincers hanging over cutely. Still, I could not forget the fact that that thing was evil. It killed my poor helpless, baby butterfly. 

I helped myself to waffles, whipped cream and fruit, while listening in on the conversation. "So Kyle are you going to ask her?" Ethan asked, wiggling his eyebrows.

"No, she has a boyfriend already," Kyle replied, going bright red.

"He's a jerk," Theo stated. Tom added another colourful word to the description. Before I could ask who they were talking about, they suddenly went quiet.

The girls were coming over. Kyle went even redder. "I swear if you set this table alight with that blush before I'm finished eating, I will set my ants on you," Jesse teased, causing the shade of Kyle's face to deepen.

Jake joined us, as the girls, their trays full of toast, beans, hash-browns, bacon and sausages, sat down at the table. Ethan immediately moved up so that Jake could sit between us. He shared a smirk with Tom. Oh god, they don't think we're gay for each other, do they??!  I thought.

Millie scuttled across from his shoulder to mine to see Indigo. I shuddered, feeling her little legs, crawl across me. 

"What's going on?" Jake asked and Ethan quietly filled him in. He nodded and smirked at Kyle. Once again, it looked like we were going to have a barbeque for breakfast. To make matters worse for Kyle, Lucinda noticed his red face.

"Are you ok? You look like you have a temperature." She put a hand to his forehead, her face filled with concern.

"I'm fine," Kyle muttered, pushing her hand away and walking out the dining. Lucinda's blue eyes followed him, filled with concern and hurt.


Kyle was curled up on his bed when I entered. I sat beside him and patted him reassuring on the shoulder. It all made sense: the boys' conversation, his reaction to Lucinda touching him.

"I know she has a boyfriend and all," I told him, "but I think you should tell Lucinda how you feel." He didn't reply. I kept my hand on his shoulder and looked at him sympathetically. "This guy seems like an idiot. Also I'm pretty sure she likes you back."

"You think so?"

I nodded. He looked a bit happier and I managed to coax him back downstairs again. It was only then that I realised I still had Jake's millipede.


Jake smiled when he saw us. "I think she likes you," he said, removing Millie from my shoulder.

"She better not get used to it," I replied, "She freaks me out." Jake chucked and rested his arm on my shoulder.

Everyone turned their attention to Lucinda as her pale face filled with shock. "My boyfriend Conner is coming today." Kyle shifted uncomfortably.

"That's my last name."

"Well done," I facepalmed. Jake grinned.

"This is serious! He doesn't know what kind of school this is. He thinks I'm normal." Everyone fell silent. 

For Lucinda's sake we decided to keep a lid on our powers. Shouldn't be that hard. It was the weekend after all.


Conner arrived an hour before lunchtime. Lucinda ran out the door and kissed him. He caught Kyle's eye and smirked. Kyle sulked off.

Lucinda introduced him to me. I nodded, not knowing what to think of him. He was tall and blonde with blue eyes, which weren't as blue as his girlfriend's.

The boys faked smiles, while bro-hugging him, and the girls shifted uncomfortably under his gaze. 

"Look at my sister like that again and I will punch you," Theo threatened, noticing where Conner had directed his eyes.

"Not my fault she's hot," He shrugged. Jesse quickly restrained Theo before he could swing a punch, while Lucinda watched them, sorrowfully. Yuki invited Connor on a tour to which he agreed to.  Lucinda, Conner and Yuki wondered off.

Once they had left, Blake released Theo, who was seething. A long line of swears flew out of his mouth. We all shot glares at Connor as he walked away, his arm around both the girls.


At lunchtime, Conner sat at the girls table with his girlfriend. The boys all glared at him. Kyle looked the most furious as he watch Conner pay no attention to Lucinda and flirt with the others. 

Without him realising, the whole table engulfed itself with flames. Ethan quickly quenched them. Connor looked at us suspiciously as we all randomly started whistling and acting "natural".

A few seconds later, Lucifer almost walked in with his horns exposed. Megan hissed at her boyfriend. He swore. Grabbing the nearest available object, he pulled it over his head Conner following her eyes, turned around to see Lucifer with a brown bag over his head. Megan facepalmed. Conner gave us dirty looks.

Whilst, we could control our class's superpowers to some extent, we couldn't control everyone else's. After the sixth time that we tried to hide someone's power, Conner noticed and his eyes widened with fear and shock. He grabbed Lucinda's hand and dragged her out. They talked outside for a long time and then Conner returned alone.


He left later on but Lucinda was still no where to be seen. 

When we eventually found her, she was with Kyle. He held her tightly as she sobbed her eyes out. "Maybe if I looked like the others..." she trailed off, crying again. Kyle shook his head.

"Conner is an idiot." 

Jake almost gave us away with his cry of mock outrage. Cleo elbowed him in the chest and he doubled over. Kyle continued.

"He only cares about eye-candy. He does realise that you're much more beautiful than the rest inside and out."

Jesse pretended to swoon and faint into Tom's arms. "Would you please put a sock in it," Cleo whispered-shouted, exasperated.

Lucinda had lifted her eyes to meet Kyle's. "You really think so?" she asked. Blushing furiously, he nodded.

"I probably should've told you earlier," Kyle admitted, "But I really like you." He looked away from her, scratching his neck, his face flushed.

"I like you too," she whispered, "I was just blindly following Conner. I tried to pretend I didn't like you in that way. I didn't want to ruin our friendship." 

Kyle leaned at kissed her. He pulled away quickly. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't-" Lucinda's lips interrupted him as she kissed him deeply. Kyle's eyes widened in shock. Then he smiled and brushed his lips against her's softly.

Tom wolf-whistled and Jake let out the least human sound I had ever heard. The couple jumped apart and watched as Cleo dragged Jake and Tom away. "Don't mind us," she yelled back, "I'll deal with these idiots. You two carry on."
