Escaping you |EDITING|

Chapter 12- Everette

I'm always pretty early to school so I just sit out here. I smile as I see Leah and Atlas pull into the parking lot and park in the spot across from my car.

As Atlas walks up to the door she notices me on the ground and rolls her eyes playfully.

"What are you doing?" She asks.

"Sitting." I respond.

She laughs and holds out her hand, I take it and pull myself up, steadying myself with her shoulders. Leah walks up to us and we all walk inside together.

I walk to Atlas locker with her, needing to make sure that no one is fucking bothering her. Sarah doesn't get taken off suspension until next week, and no one else has really bothered us except for Bryce, but I know he's not a problem.

As she stuffs her bags inside her locker I see her turn around, looking towards the office and her eyes widen and she smiles.

I look up and see a familiar girl standing in front of our principal. Hannah, we met her at Leah's volleyball game.

"What's she doing here?" I ask atlas

"I don't know, maybe Leah knows?" She says and I nod.

"Hey Leah whys Hannah here?" She asks gesturing to the office doors

"I don't know." Leah shrugs.

Me and Atlas go to our first class and begin working on an assignment when the door opens and the teacher looks up. Me and Atlas both turn around and Hannah's standing in the doorway.

"Oh, you must be Hannah Lin?" The teacher asks and she nods.

The teacher asks to her to the front and when she notices me and Atlas she smiles and waves.

The teacher introduces Hannah to the class and seats her behind me and Atlas.

"I didn't know you were transferring here?" Atlas whispers to Hannah when she sits down.

"I wasn't supposed to be but my dad found a better job and it was too far, so we had to move houses and this school is closer." She explains and looks down to her paper.

Me and atlas both mutter quiet "oh okays" in understanding and finish our work.

"Can Hannah sit with us at lunch?" Atlas asks me before class ends

"Of course, you don't have to ask to sit with your friends love." I say to her, I don't want to control her. She can sits with whoever she wants too.

"I know, I just know Kai and James don't know her."

"It doesn't matter, she can sit with us." I say.

"Okay. Hey Hannah!" She runs off towards Hannah and I laugh. She's so cute.

At lunch Hannah, Leah, and Atlas are already seated when me, James, and Kai get there.

Kai immediately notices Hannah and calls her hot or something like that. I don't know I wasn't really paying attention to him. Kai respects women but he's definitely a... player of sorts. He sleeps with any girl that looks at him, basically, is what I'm getting at.

When we sit down Leah introduces Hannah To Kai and James and Kai and Hannah spark conversation between the table. We mainly talk about volleyball, as well as homecoming.

I'm gonna ask Atlas, obviously. James wants to ask Leah to homecoming and possibly make it official that night. I really do think they're good for each other.

During my other classes, I took 3 tests and got assigned like 50 homework assignments. I do really well in school but that doesn't mean I like it. I hate the people, I hate the workload, I hate the teachers, I basically hate everything about it.
