Chapter 147: Paranoia?
Clark POV:

Keyword: tried.
Lucas was clearly nuts. Or maybe just too high-strung for a place like this. Whatever it was, I shouldn’t have let him get in my head. I shouldn’t have even engaged him.
Monsters?
Right. And maybe next week, I’d be abducted by aliens who wanted to teach me advanced calculus.
It was a prank. Had to be. Some messed-up, long-standing tradition where seniors test how gullible the freshmen are. Maybe they had a whole betting pool about who would crack first. Lucas just happened to be the poor bastard who snapped early.

I rolled over in bed, pulling the blanket over my head like Lucas had done last night. Ironic. But even under the covers, the room felt colder. Like whatever panic he brought in had left a residue behind.
My hand instinctively reached for my phone. I hovered over sara’s name.
I missed her voice already. Her joy. The way she always managed to talk me out of my spirals. If anyone could snap me back to reality, it was her.
But 5:13 a.m. was too early. Even for her. I didn’t want to come off as clingy.
I’ll tell her at lunch, I told myself. Maybe laugh about it. "Hey, guess what? My roommate thinks we’re living in a vampire cult."
Yeah. Maybe it’d be funny by then.
I dropped the phone beside me, closed my eyes, and tried to block out the sound of the wind outside. The faint hum of the old radiator. The flickering fluorescent light in the hallway that kept buzzing through the crack under the door.
Tried.
But my mind kept looping back to one thing Lucas had said:
"You saw it, didn’t you?"
Yeah.
