Chapter 2 New School

"Ms. Wood, please take a seat." said the guidance counselor, Mrs. Annie Jacob. This is not new to me. Totally not new. She discussed the school rules and provided me my class schedule, just like any normal guidance counselor would do to new students.

"Do you understand?"

"Yes, Mrs. Jacob"

"Great. Wait for the student council president here so he can tour you around."

*knock*

"Ms. Wood here's..."

"You?!" we said in unison. Like, oh my good Lord. Of all people.

"It's good that you know..."

"No!" the both of us can't accept the fact that we have to tour together.

"Oh okay. Kylie Wood, here's Ethan Reed, president of the student body." What a day. What a very unlucky day.

"Tell your mom that the ravioli tasted good"

"Can you please shut up?"

"Should I? I'm your tour guide. Should I silence myself then?"

"You arrogant freak."

"Thank you, Keyla"

"It's Kylie."

"Did I say it wrong?"

How long will this tour last? I can't stand another minute or second with this a**h*le.

"And this is the end of your tour, princess"

"Good" thank goodness.

"I guess I can't get a sorry and a thank you from you, princess." He whispered to my ear. Which caused shivers that reached my spine.

"You wish"

*School bell ringing*

"Okay, class. Take a seat. Let's welcome our new student. Come here and introduce yourself to the class."

"Hi, I'm Kylie Wood. Pleased to meet you all."

"Alright, Ms. Wood. There's a vacant seat at the back that you can occupy."

"Mr. Porter, can I move there instead?"

"Stacey Richardson, stay on your seat. Ms. Wood, please move at the back."

The class started as I put my bag down. Then, the guy seated next to me whispered.

"Hey, princess. Did you miss me?"

Mother eff. Really?! What a day, indeed!

"Now you have no plans talking to me?"

"I did not come here to be friendly with you"

"So you want more than friends, I guess?"

"I don't know where you're getting that arrogance of yours from"

"Mr. Reed, Ms. Wood, having a good time in my class?" This is so embarrassing.

"I'm sorry Mr. Porter"

"So you know how to say sorry"

"Hush will you?"

He just chuckled. I hate to admit it. He's cute. But wait. He's still an a**h*le.

And just like that, the day is over. Or so I thought.

"Hey. New girl." Said Stacey.

"Uhm. Excuse me?"

"There's no new girl here except you."

I am trying to be as invisible as possible and here comes another antagonist.

"Keep yourself away from our Ethan. He's not yours."

"Then take him. I don't care"

"Don't you dare treat Stacey like that." Said one of her underlings.

"I just need to go home. I don't have time for this. You can continue your drama on your own. I'm out" I rushed out because I know this kind of scene doesn't end well in the movies. And guess what, it didn't end well for me either. Someone played a prank on my bike.
