I Didn't Know I'm a Rogue

A Distraction

I couldn't find anyone else to tell, since there was still about half an hour until everyone I knew got home from school, so I ended up going back to my room. I found a couple pieces of paper and started to write down everything I could remember from the last time I had been in school.

Looking down at what I had written, I frowned. I had been a freshman in high school when I had been captured, and the three years in captivity had made a lot of the information I had learned fuzzy in my mind. I refused to give up before I started, though.

A few minutes later, I heard what sounded like people sprinting down the hallway outside my room. Suddenly, Dot and Fae burst through my door, and Dot held up something in front of her. I instantly recognized it as a credit card.

"We're going back to school shopping!"

"I'll be right back with your schedule, honey," crooned the sweet, old secretary. She got up out of her chair and waddled into a different room, leaving me to stand next to her desk with Anton. According to my new fake birth certificate, Anton was my uncle, and I had been sent to live with him for the rest of the year.

"Are you nervous?" asked Anton.

"Nope," I said, popping the p. In reality, I was terrified, but I wasn't going to admit it. I was scared because I'm so behind, and I didn't know anyone, and I can't honestly even remember what it felt like to go to a high school.

The old woman came back and handed me a schedule, a pretty thin handbook, and a map to the school. "There you go, sweetheart. If you have any questions, come on back down, okay?"

"Thanks!" I said, flashing a smile, and then Anton and I walked out of the office.

"You ready?" he asked, and I nodded once. Anton smiled and said, "If you need me, or it's too hard, just text me or call and I'll come get you." Anton gestured towards my pocket, where the new phone Stark had insisted I buy was snugly tucked.

"I'll be fine," I said rolling my eyes. "I'll see you after school." Anton laughed and said goodbye, and I watched as he walked down the hall and out the front door. Now, I left alone in the middle of an abandoned hallway with no idea where to go.

I checked my schedule to see that my first class was English in room 314, so I hopped up the main staircase to the third floor, the sound of my footsteps reverberating through the empty halls. I located room 314 and took a deep breath before pushing through the door.

All eyes fell on me, and I tugged on my cropped leather jacket self-consciously. Dot and Fae had dragged me around the mall shopping, and they ended up spending way too much money, completely ignoring my protests. I ended up coming back to the pack house loaded with so many unnecessary bags of clothes, but Stark didn't comment when he saw them.

"Are you the new student?" asked the teacher.

Obviously, snorted my wolf.

"Yeah," I said politely.

The teacher nodded and then clapped his hands together. "Class, this is our new student, Tyler Grayson. Everyone be nice!" The teacher then directed me to a desk in the back and resumed his lesson. I hurried through the rows of desks and dropped my backpack on the floor next to me.

I pulled out a notebook like everyone else, but the teacher started talking about thematic ideas and motifs, and pretty soon, I was lost. I ended up just sitting there and staring at the whiteboard full of terms that I didn't understand.

The bell rang and my classmate shot out of their chairs and out of the room before I even finished putting away my supplies. I sighed and shuffled out of the room, and I was paying such close attention to the map in my hands that I wasn't watching where I was going. I slammed into something hard, and

I fell flat on my ass, the papers in my hands going flying.

I looked up, and my breath caught in my throat. Of course, the person I ran into had to be the guy I had come to school to avoid.

Bo.

YAY! she went back to school, but she has no idea what the teacher's talking about... Poor Tyler.

I don't really have much more to say other than sorry it's not longer. I'm at a hockey tournement this weekend, so I'm doing team bonding stuff, but i wanted to update at least once this weekend. Hopefully i can update tomorrow, because both my games are in the afternoon.
