The Partner Project

Chapter 2

Hey guys! So I think I'm going to contune this story. But I'm still a little hesitant to do so. Picture of Madelyn to the right. But please Comment and Vote! :D 

"WHAT!" I screamed. My parents have to be out of their minds if they are seriously making me do this stupid thing. "I'm not going to be with a retarded freak!" Being in the Partner Project is social suicide. Taking care of a retard is something I'm not going to do.

"That's exactly the reason why we signed you up for this. You have no respect for others! Those mentally disables children are human beings too." The devil himself pointed his finger at me.

"I'd rather be suspended than spend one minute with a retard!" I was about to throw a plant at my parents. Do they even know my status at school? I was the school's king. Everybody either wanted to be me or wanted to be with me. Quarterback of the football team and the hottest guy in school. I had almost everybody wrapped around my fingers. Including some of the new teachers. I'm tall and have a pretty big pack if you ask me. I don't need to be around some freak that will kill my reputation. The loser can find someone else to carry his balls.

"Well being suspended is not an option anymore. You have been suspended way too many times in the past. Being suspended will not do you any good. It's already been finalized that you are in this project and are responsible for a mentally disabled student. You will be in the project until you prove to us that you are responsible." Mom folded her hands across from her chest and gave me a stern look.

"Mom you can't be serious. You can't make me do this!"

"Oh yes we can son. As long as you're living under this roof, you're doing exactly what we tell you to do." He seriously can't pull this string. It's so unfair!

"Maybe you will like it. I heard the girl is very sweet! She's new so you have to show her around." My mother flashed mw her 1000 watt smile.

"Wait, it's a chick? Is she hot?" Maybe if she's dumb enough, I can persuade her into blowing my pot of gold. But I'm sure it won't take much convincing to do since chicks beg for a taste of me.

"Alexander!" Mother gasped. Oh shit. Did I say that out loud?

............................................

The day came. My life will officially turn into a living hell. I was going to meet the stupid chick today. I got out of my car and slowly walked to the school building.

"Hey sexy," Sidney wraps her long arms around my neck. "I missed you last night. Where were you?" She growled and attacked my lips with her own.

Sidney was my main bitch. She's sexy, on the top of the cheerleading pyramid, and did I say super sexy?

After prying my lips off hers, I dully replied. "My parents busted my ass for skipping class."

She sighed. "I don't like your parents. They're too strict."

"I don't like them either babe." I wrapped my hand around her waist.

"Yo Alex!" Damon shouted across the parking lot and jogged his way towards us.

"Yea?" I replied. Thankful for the distraction.

"Party at my house next Saturday. The 'rents are going on a business trip."

"I thought it was this Saturday. "

"Nah man my parents decided not to go visit my Aunt Jen in Alaska. Something about her getting an ear infection. But they will be leaving net Saturday for sure."

"That's all right! At least we get a Saturday for ourselves. Right Alex?" Sidney ran her hands along my chest. We were interrupted by the warning bell.

We all walked into school together. My shoulders getting heavier with dread the further we walk. Maybe if I go to first period, the principle will forget about me. Sounds like a good plan.

But as I walk into school Mr. Saunders steps out of his office and looks around. He catches my eye and smirks. "Mr. Rose. There you are! I need you in my office. Now."

"Good luck bro." Damon gives me a sympathetic smile and walks off.

I walk in and notice a small girl sitting on one of the wooden chairs next to another blonde girl.

"Alex I would like you to meet your partner. Madelyn Atkins." I look around only to notice the two blondes staring blankly at me.

"Who?"

"Madelyn honey, stand up." The older blonde whispers to the younger one. The little girl stands up and tilts her head in an attempt to look at me.

"Hi." She whispers and blinks her green eyes.

"Madelyn has almost every class with you. You have to sit next to her in all the classes the both of you share and help her out."

"What? Why can't she just go to special needs classes?" I chose my words carefully so I don't get my ass busted again.

"Even though she is autistic, Madelyn is very smart. It just takes her more time to understand things. She doesn't need to go to special needs classes anymore. I'm Fiona Atkins. Madelyn's older sister." The other blonde puts her hand out in front of me to shake.

I gently take her hand and shake it. "Umm, hi. I'm Alex Rose. But I'm sure you already know that."I send a smirk down her way. She brushes her long blonde hair out of the way and smiles at me. She's pretty hot. She whips her head back and whispers something in Madelyn's ear.

The younger blonde shakes her head and whispers back. She then takes a couple hesitant steps and walks towards me. The both blonds are almost identical but I know this is Madelyn because of the way she's walking. She looks at me and slowly whispers. "My name is Madelyn." Her speech is slow and dragged out but I can understand it.

"Can she like, understand if I say anything?" I ask Fiona.

"She's not dumb Alex. She has grown over the past few years and got better. She is just a slow learner and her speech is slow. That's all. But she is pretty smart though."

"Here is her schedule." Mr. Saunders hands me a copy of her schedule and hands Madelyn a copy of her schedule. "You guys have European History, Calculus, Lunch, Choir, and Gym together. Now Alex, I expect you to take Madelyn to all of her classes' every day."

"Ms. Fiona, I assure you that Madelyn will be taken care of and there will be a teacher that will check up on her once in a while." He shoots a smile at Fiona.

"Thank you so much Mr. Saunders. Madelyn is a special kid. She won't be a hassle and won't disrupt this school in any way."

"Well I believe you." He then turned to us. "Alex, why don't you take Madelyn to first period since you share the class with her?"

I sigh. The rest of high school might as well be hell for me. I picked up my bag and waited for the small blonde to pick up her bag. I didn't really notice her that much. I was too busy noticing her hot older sister in that body tight dress she wore. But this girl wore skinny jeans and a flowery top. Her long blonde hair was let lose. Cascading down her back in gentle waves. I opened the door for her and led the way to class.

I had to walk slowly because Madelyn was walking slowly. She kept her head down and had her hair form a curtain around her face. Her hand was clutching the straps of her bag in a tight grip.

We finally reached out dreaded destination. I opened the classroom door and stepped in.

Let the torture begin.
