Chapter 1:

“Shut the fuck up! I’m trying to sleep here!” My roommate screamed as he threw a pillow at me from the other side of the room.

“Sorry… I just had the most fucked up dream ever…” I apologised.

It was currently 5:22 in the morning and my roommate, Miles, was not a early morning person… especially when it’s a Sunday… and the sun still hasn’t risen… and I’m starting to ramble here, I should stop…

“I don’t give two shits if you had a fucked up dream!” He shouted, throwing another pillow. “You don’t shout ‘What the fuck was that all about?!’ this early in the morning!”

“It’s not my fault you’re a light sleeper!” I shouted back throwing the first pillow at his head. It struck him but did fuck all… since, well, you know… it’s a fucking pillow…

*knock* *knock* *knock*

“Would you two get to fornicating already!” a voice shouted through the wall. I simply rolled my eyes but Miles blushed.

“Fuck you!” I called back.

An awkward silence followed as me and Miles just sat on our respected beds in the dark. For some reason I could see really well, it was like there was clouds blocking out the sun in the middle of the day. We sat there for another minute before Miles spoke.

“Well I’m up now, might as well stay up because its gunna take a few hours of lying here to get to sleep again…” he sighed “Let me just put the light on,” he got out of his bed and walked over to the door where the light switch was and flipped it. He flinched as his eyes adjusted to the sudden change of light. My reaction, however, was a lot more extreme.

“AAH!! FUCK, THAT’S BRIGHT!!” I screamed as I covered my eyes with my arm.

“What are you talking about? It’s not THAT bright, I mean, just let your eyes adjust to it and it will be fine…”

“NO, seriously! Turn it off!!” I shouted at him but he didn’t move. “Dude, it hurts. Turn it off!”

“Nah~” He teased. “It’ll be fine… trust me!” he exclaimed with a mock grin.

“Just turn it off already!”

“Nah. I’m alright!”

“TURN. IT. OFF!”

“Fine, jeez.” He sighed as he turned to light off. “You are SUCH a baby sometimes”

Ok, that was weird, even for me… Now, I’m the kind of person who hardly ever goes out and almost never has the light on but… THAT was something else. I have never, EVER reacted to ANYTHING like that before.

“What was all that about anyway?” Miles asked me as he walked towards my bed. “You probably woke up the whole campus.” he chuckled.

“I… I don’t even know. For some reason, that really hurt my eyes.”

“Seriously? You’re such a wimp!”

“It felt like I was staring at the sun!”

“Oh, c’mon. It wasn’t that br-”

“THE SUN!”

“Alright, alright. Jeez,” he sat on the end of my bed and started to think. Now… once Miles starts thinking, one of two things happen: either all Hell breaks loose or all of heaven descends upon you. …don’t quote me on that… “Hold on for a second, I need to check something,” he finally spoke.

He started to scoot closer to me on my bed, still thinking, and I got a bit uncomfortable.

First off, let me tell you that having a homosexual roommate is not the easiest thing in the world. Mainly because as soon as one person finds out, they tell the rest of the university finds out and that makes your life hell when everybody thinks you’re fucking each other. (Wait, what? I never said that Miles is gay? Did I need to? Its like saying ‘Oh and my roommate is straight!’ who wants to know that? Anyway…) it also doesn’t help the fact that I have caught him looking at me in ‘that way’ when he thought I wasn’t looking, even though he insists that I’m not his type. (And before anybody says anything about me being homophobic about this. I will have you know, he is my life long friend and I was more supportive to him when he ‘came out’ than his own parents! And I still am!)

So, yeah. He scooted all the way over to me while I was still in my bed and stared at my eyes for a few seconds.

“Dude, what are you doing?” I asked him nervously.

“Shut up. I’m concentrating!” he snapped as he leaned closer to my face. A little too close for comfort. He then placed his hands on my face. Not cool.

“Ok, seriously. What are you doing?” I asked as I tried to back away a bit more.

“Sshhhh!”

“Argh! Get off, I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND!” I cried as I tried to swat his hands away.

“Look,” he started, blushing slightly. “there is something wrong with your eyes and I’m trying to see what it is, which is very hard in this light!”

“How can you tell if there is something wrong with my eyes?”

“First of all, I’m taking medical courses. second of all, I don’t remember your eyes being yellow.”

“…”

“Last time I checked, they were brown. So either your eyes have something wrong with them or you’re wearing contact lenses without me knowing.”

“I’m not wearing contact lenses, you know I hate putting things in my eyes,” I told him as he stood up and started to walk towards his own bed. “Hey, dude, can you pass me a mirror or something? I need to see this for myself. Make sure your not trying to prank me or something,” I called over to him.

“Yeah, sure!” he replied as he picked up an object from his bedside table. He walked back over to me and was about to hand me the object but hesitated. “…although, I’m not sure you will be able to see in this kind of light. It is kinda dar-”

“Just give me the fucking mirror already!”

“Alright, alright! Calm down.”

He handed me the mirror and I looked at the reflection of my eyes. To say I was shocked would be the understatement of the year! I don’t even know how long I stared at my reflection but it must have been a while. My eyes have completely changed. they were no longer the brown, boring eyes I grew up with, they were yellow, VERY yellow, yellowier than sith eyes. And they looked like they belonged to a cat. Slit like pupils with bright yellow irises that filled the whole eye, no white bits to it at all.

“What… the…” was all I could manage so say.

“I think its safe to say that you’ll need sunglasses when you go out for your lectures tomorrow,” Miles commented. “Hey, at least it will cover up some of that ugly face of yours!” He joked.

Damn, that was a nice mirror. It’s a shame it cracked when it made contact with Miles’ face…
