I didn't mean to! I swear!

Chapter 14: I'm swept off my feet! Literally!

Unfortunately the next day wasn't warmth and sunshine either. In fact the very same thunder storm I was worried about yesterday seemed to have saved itself for now, as big wet globs of rain pelted everything from the windows to the roof above us. And each one left a loud thud sound, no pitter patter romance novel storms here just this monsoon!

Cane snoring didn't help either.

Class only started at eight, to get there on time I would have to get up at seven, six if I actually cared what I looked like. I certainly didn't have to be up at four AM. Oddly enough that was the exact time my annoying bedside clock was stating currently.

Four AM! Why the ever loving hell!

Grudgingly I tore myself away from my warm bed and onto the cold tiles of the dorm room. Wincing I picked my way to the closet and grabbed some sweats. There was no way I was sitting in these uncomfortable club clothes for four hours. Plus my jacket was ripped!

That brought back the entire of last nights screwed up events.

WHAT HAD I DONE! I SHOULDA STAYED IN JAIL! EVEN THAT WAS SAFER THAN OWING JACK SQUAT TO FALCON AVERY!

He was the devil! No even the devil was shy of this coconut fritter. Everyone had warned me away from him like the plague! From unsuspecting prankers to his own friends and I had forgotten all of that and pulled this.

No use crying over spilt milk

Spilt milk! What about this situation screams spilt milk to you

Just get over it and work around it.

That was actually sound advice. I couldn't change the fact that Falcon the douche of all douches was after my butt but that couldn't rule my life. He was a prat anyway and its not like I care for his opinion on me or anything else. In fact I didn't care about Falcon at all.

With that joyful epiphany out of the way I cracked open my wardrobe and retrieved the medical kit in there. It didn't take long to shower wrap up in a robe and come back to my room, even less time to disinfect the cut running from my elbow to wrist. I swathed the whole of it in Dettol and then wrapped it in gauze. When I was  done my arm looked mummified but it wouldn't be infected any time soon.

I took the opportunity to have a nice chat with my mum, as I threw on my socks and shirt. The shirt was long enough to hit mid thigh so I just bopped around in boxer shorts. When I put the phone down it was six AM. I was half dressed, my hair was actually neat in a nice long Elsa braid that hit my butt and all of my homework was finished.

I was bored.

"I'm going to regret this," I murmured a I pulled on jeans and a thick red hooded cape.

With the hood firmly around me and my boots on I ventured out of my room.

The grounds of G.C were beautiful from the sprawling trees and shrubs to the little architectural hot spots. I had a grand old time exploring as the campus was asleep, I even found the three houses where most of the students resided.

I hadn't done much digging into the whole house matter, but Nicole was up to speed and took great delight in passing on the info.

They'd call you not the other way around.

It was all too Hogwarts to be normal, but who didn't love Harry Potter! Supposedly the three houses were miles different. One was super creative and such, the other mainly sporty and lastly academic.

That was what the brochure said anyway. My source (Nicole) had delighted in breaking that misconception. Apparently most of the pig headed rich brats, basically troublemakers and more importantly those who could get out of it were put in the academic house. So stubborn was valued here.

The more relaxed creatives who more often than not won our school a ton of competition were in the second. They were supposed to be super brilliant but also really sneaky. I don't know my source was high off pancakes at the time.

Third went to all the really sporty trouble maker who couldn't get out of trouble. Nicole had told me most of the really hard headed people ended up there but it was a really cool place. More preppy than the entire school but  cool.

There were names I'd just forgotten. As I was walking around I spotted two girls climbing out a window in Gladium, yep that was the name, Gladium house. They looked suspicious but it wasn't my problem at least not until one ran into me.

Her blonde hair left loose and was everywhere and her eyes shone with mischief. Something I respected.

"Sorry!" she giggled pulling me up, "Really feel bad about that, totally my fault, any other day and I would have totally been way more on point with my apologising, but i'm really sorry about this I have to run. Long story big problems major prank! BIG TROUBLE! nice to meet you see you around school. The names Elly, again major sorry. BYE!!" How she got the whole lot out and managed  to scamper away was beyond me.

In a flash the fast talking Elly had disappeared. What a peculiar girl, but she seemed oodles of fun, definitely crazy enough to be friend material must look into that. The girl with Elly had stuck behind though. Her red hair was piled onto her head in a half undone bun.

"Do me a massive favour love and hold this." With that she shoved a whole load of toilet paer into my arms and scattered.

"What the cabbage!" She left me with all her stuff, "Hey come back here, you left your..."

My words dried up as two very angry very shirtless boys ran toward me. They look like they want to murder me! What was with the male population of this school and killing me! I was very lovable what gives?

"There you are you sneaky little witch!" One said.

"Thought you could get away with what you did, did ya?"

"So sorry, no clue what youre on about. What are you on about?"

They however ignored me and my protests. One grabbed my bag, the other threw me over his shoulder and then walked away with me.

"What the ever loving hell do you think youre doing! PUT ME DOWN YOU LEMON SQUIDS I HAVE RIGHTS AND I WILL SURELY KICK YOU IN THE NUTS! YOULL BE LUCKY TO HAVE KIDS WHEN IM THROUGH WITH YOU PUT ME DOWN!"

I was ignored carried into the house I had been admiring and past corridors until they knocked.

"Come in, " a loud voice ordered.

I was dragged in and plopped onto a chair. "I will end you two, what gives you the right to pick up unsuspecting girls and carry them off?"

They however had left leaving me to a very amused looking man.

"Good morning I'm Professor Ignatius and you my darling are responsible for the vandalism to Gladium house,"

Wait what!
