When Alice thought about school, she always detested it. She hated the idea of having to sit down with her fellow peers and listen to men and women speak about things that were only Theory. She knew that she was not perfect but the circumstances in her life forced her to look beyond the things that life presented before her.
She needed to be a better person but for that to happen she first had to handle the other side that always urged her to turn off her humanity. When it came to the demon that lived inside her, Alice found the greatest battle being keeping on the good side of her. the reason as to why she was always quiet and avoided human interactions was because anything l always triggered her transformation.
She could not let herself change in front of anyone especially because she did not even know what creature she would turn into the next minute. She had devoted herself to trying to get rid of that evil that existed inside out but little did Alice know, that it was already part of her existence. without eating she was nothing.
Her life was surrounded by so much danger and she always had to look over her shoulder in case any werewolves or alphas that she had angered before, we are catching up with her. in her missions to try and dig up the past, she had crossed paths with very dangerous people who are also significantly Powerful. even though the sauce or unless abilities were something far more hazardous, she did not want to let that part of her will. this is why she had agreed with her aunt that she will be attending the High School inside the new town.
Bradford high was the best school in the country. She had been hearing about the praises of the school most of the time when she was studying in New York. it was a prominent School. The one the school that could ever have accepted alice despite the series of suspensions she'd undergone. Her aunt seemed to be the only one she had left, she always paid for her fees, and all Alice did was mind her business and get along with life.
Life's a bitch, she always thought to herself, especially after her own dad abandoned her and disowned her simply because of her waist size and the fact that she did drugs.
The alarm finally rang, making her mutter incoherent curses in bed and reach for the small system. Her hands grabbed it violently and threw it against the wall bashing it hard and making the system dismantled.
" fuck, the eighth alarm.." She cursed under her sheets.. " Five more minutes.." She told herself as she drifted back to be..She knew that by this time, her aunty and Mia had already gone off to school. she always felt proud of herself whenever she remembered that she got the privilege of having her own car. should be driving herself to school whether and cared or not. she could not afford to get expelled to the sixth School because that would mean that getting a different school for Alice will be a big problem.
Because perhaps, sleep in the morning was her only escape
She woke up in a rattle, confused and freaking out..she looked at the remains of the alarm, shattered in pieces, her eyes drifted along the purple wall of her bedroom.
" Fuck, how long have I been asleep?" She asked brushing the hair backward trying to keep her eyes open. Her eyes finally caught sight of the wall clock, and her heart almost fell to her stomach. 11:07!!!
She yelped as she threw away her blankets and rushed to the bathroom. She was supposed to report at eight, at the latest, eight forty-five, well now, three hours later, she gets up for school. She will definitely be in trouble for being late on the first day of school. as however did not care she needed to get this over and done with. inside herself, she suspected that her aunt and Mia had not yet gone to school. she knew that perhaps they are gonna do luxurious shopping sprees to welcome her daughter back from Italy. Alice was not the type of secret attention or wanted the same kind of love that she give her daughter. she was actually very happy whenever they ignored or failed to notice her presence. this would mean that she would get away with a lot that she used to do. when she turned on the shower, she could not help but take a deep breath, the warm water running through her beautiful delicate skin was almost calming. if only she did not spend all her sleep running around her dreamland in trying to find an exit, then maybe she would have woken. Her nightmares always proved a big disadvantage to her especially when it came to keeping on time. punctuality was not her biggest strength.
those few milliseconds when she shut her eyes and let the water run through her body, brought forth Bittersweet memories as the flashbacks of a tragic today run through her mind.
She took a deep breath, "it is just a stupid school. Let's get this over and done with.'' Alice said herself. The school would be her safest hiding place. finding that identity where she will be recognized as a student of Bradford High, will play a great advantage in her mission. whenever things got too heated and she had to lay low, then she will always come to school. she needed something that will be drawn from the tracker and the hunters. Something that would make her look like nothing but a normal and innocent teenage girl going to high school.
Her phone rung from the bed, as she exited the bathroom and huskily dried her hair. She didn't have to look at the phone to know that her aunt was calling, she must've been told that the girl she admitted and was supposed to report had not yet been reported.
She didn't pick up her phone, she reasoned with herself and saw no use in doing so, it's just noise that she wants to dictate.
