The teacher entered the class, and I followed behind her. When she entered, no one paid attention but the moment I stepped in, the class was taken by silence. All eyes are on me. They all gave me this puzzled look. '' Attention everyone '' the teacher said out loud '' This is a new member of the department. She is a scholarship student '' The class began to murmur among themselves. Just then I am met with those familiar faces. The bitchy girl from yesterday and the two girls that were with her. The lady who sat close to the strange guy from the club wasn't here and two other girls were missing. I guess they are not in this department and I couldn't find the strange guy and two of his friends either But that Max guy from the club was there as well. This is going to be a crazy ride. Oh, look now as we all know this is mid-semester which means she is going to need a little assistance. Please, I beg of you, be kind '' The murmuring stopped '' introduced yourself'' she said to me
'' My name is Maria Eduardo ''
'' Ha!'' I heard a mocking sound from behind and I went silent
'' is that all? '' The teacher asked confused
'' Pardon? '' Wondering, what else she wanted from me, tell them my age, and my gender?
''Just your name? Tell them a little about you '' she said. What is this? Elementary school? I thought to myself '' Go on '' she smile. At this point, I felt the teacher was trying to make fun of me
'' I hate bitches and assholes. If you know you are one, Avoid me.'' I spoke with eyes on that particular group. They all give me a death stare. Not like I was trying to make trouble. One of them already started issues with me. I just wanted them to get the message that I have no interest in them. '' thank you ''
'' WOOOOOOOOOW '' The class cheered at my words
'' watch your language in my class Maria '' the teacher warned '' Now go to your seat ''
with that I made my way to one of the empty seats, but the moment I got close. A girl put her bag on the seat
'' It is taken '' I rolled my eyes and went to another seat
''This is taken as well'' a guy who had his leg on the seat said. Finally, I ended up in the back seat. Next to a guy who was fast asleep. He had his head turned in the other direction so I couldn't tell what he looks like.
'' All right class, let's begin '' the teacher announced. She started by calling the class roster
and called the name '' Logan?'' there was no response '' Where is Logan? '' the class remained silent. It seemed like they knew where he was but no one dare to speak. '' I guess I am going to mark him absent them ''
'' Ammm, ma. I think he is at the sick bay. He said he had a headache this morning '' that Bitchy girl said
'' Again?'
'' I guess so ''
'' yesterday headache, the day before yesterday headache. Now today headache? ''
'' Miss Valentine, it seems so '' she shrugged
'' whatever. Ask him to meet me in the office, later today ''
'' yes Miss Valentine ''
The top student in school is allowed to miss classes I guess. The next name called was Gorge. And once again there was no response.
'' where is Gorge? '' she frowns and was responded to by silence '' Is Gorge sleeping again? '' she yelled. It then occurred to me that the only person sleeping in class was my seat mate '' Gorge!!'' she called again. I wanted to wake him up but didn't know how or where to start '' Gorge !!'' she called again
'' hey, Gorge'' I whispered very close to him '' Gorge '' I whispered again. I looked at Miss Valentina who carried a very angry expression
'' I Guess you are absent then.....''
'' Present '' a deep voice suddenly interrupted. Beside me was Gorge. And I had no idea when he woke up. I didn't even feel any movement
'' aaa '' A gasp escaped my lips in shock to see him. A guy with long dirty blond hair, parked in ponytail, his long lashes rested on his eyes lead, popping out his beautiful, forest green eyes. His eyes fell on me and her raised an eyebrow in confusion
'' And you are? '' he asked, I was about to answer when the teacher interrupted.
'' Gorge. Be careful '' she warned with that frown
'' I appreciate your concern Miss, Valentine. I will keep that in mind '' flashed a silly smile and then looked at me once again '' You are? ''
'' Maria '' I said
'' Gorge. Nice to meet you Maria '' he had his hand out for me to take which I did. I was a bit surprised to see that, there is one person in the class who didn't act like an asshole
'' nice to meet you too '' I smiled at him. Feeling Good to know that I have a reasonable seatmate.
'' you are cute '' his compliment took me by surprise.
'' What?''
'' I said you are cute '' a warm welcoming smile appeared on his lips making me smile even more
'' thank you... I would say the same to you ''
'' Really? '' surprised and excited '' I am cute? ''
'' Ammm. no...I meant that you are handsome ''
'' thanks ''
''weirdo'' I heard a voice from the second roll. I turn in the direction of the voice, to see that group watching us with disgust
'' Ignore them '' a warm whisper in my ear which made me flinch In shock '' Oh.. sorry '' it was Gorge's doing
'' please don't do that, I am not a fan of people being too close, physically '' smiling awkwardly
'' Got it '' he nodded. '' well then, see you when the day is over '' his words confused me. Where is he going? I wondered. Just like that, he put his head on the table and went off to sleep. I instantly understood he was going to sleep. Ok. I got a reasonable, weird seatmate. I can handle that.
The class began for the day. Miss Valentine as our home teacher, began the class for the day and it went smoothly. The next class was a bit difficult. Chemistry, that has always been the subject giving me a hard time so I did my best to pay attention. The Teacher was qualified enough to teach the subject and he did his best to carry everyone along. though I may not have resumed on time, but I was able to follow up on the classes. During the first break I tried speaking to Gorge about his notes and it turns out that he had non. I wasn't surprised anyway. Looking around trying to find the most approachable person. I spotted a nerdy boy in the corner. Focused on copying notes. I got up and made my way to him '' Hi '' stood in front of his desk and greeted him. He lifts his head to look at me and it seems like my presence frightened him but that did not bother me. '' sorry to trouble you. But is it possible to get your note? ''
'' oh,'' he smiled '' Sure'' he was about to reach for his bag...
'' Eric '' that familiar female voice interrupted rudely. We both turn to see that girl leaning on a table beside us, Max was right beside her and had a lollipop in his mouth and she had the other girls behind her
'' Yes? '' The Eric boy stood up immediately like an obedient child.
'' you are not really going to give her your note are you now? '' she smiled, a smile that carried so evil in it.
'' oh no I wasn't '' smiled stupidly in response '' I was just about to tell her that I won't give it ''
'' Good boy
'' she praised
'' Hey Eric, do not forget that it is time for our lunch '' Max said smiling as well
'' Oh yes, on it '' Eric ran out of the class to get their lunch. It took me so much not to react, remembering that my scholarship will be at risk and it is just my first day. I smiled at them, then turn to leave, but someone caught my arm, stopping me at my track.
''Not so fast '' it was Max '' we got issues to settle... Maria '' staring at him. he grins stupidly, I took a one-year training in boxing because of my father and I got a black belt in Karate. But if I hit a person like him, that will only get me in trouble and I know very well, that is their aim
'' what do you want? '' asked calmly while pulling my hand away from his grip
'' wow... tough ass indeed '' Max nodded
'' Isabella '' one of the girls said to the girl in front who I just found out her name '' Doesn't she look familiar?''
'' Yes, Sara. She does '' realization hits all of them. The Sara girl smiled like she did a great job recognizing that I was familiar. How childish
'' have we met before? '' Max asked
'' So what if we have ?'' with eyes lucked to his. He frowned. I watched him take out his lollipop and took a step closer
'' you've got a sharp tongue don't you ?'' obviously upset '' I see you do not know where you are. You have no idea who we are do you '' I remained silent '' hey? '' he used his finger to push me slightly '' hey? '' he did it again
'' you were referring to us earlier when you said Assholes and bitches, didn't you?'' Sara spoke
'' Yeah she was '' Isabella said
'' I see someone needs a lesson '' Max pushed me again and I got fed up. I took a step back and smiled
'' I wasn't referring to any specific person '' Max raised an eyebrow confused
" Oh really " He forced a smile
'' Yeah... But if the shoe fits, wear it, Cinder fucking rellas.
'' What? '' Max let out in shock. I walked away, leaving them hanging. I can not let them get to me
The school ended for the day. I quickly packed my bag and ready to leave. I looked at Gorge who was fast asleep. I wanted to wake him up but I thought to myself. Will it be necessary? after all who wakes him up when I wasn't here? I got up and made my way to the door and Bob. Out of nowhere, those familiar faces appeared, Julia and Sara
'' What now? '' I didn't have time for their drama, I needed to get to work on time.
'' You are being called for, to the rooftop'' Sara Spoke. Seriously? This was only my first day for goodness sake.
