I groan, throwing my bag into the undercarriage and line up to hop on the bus.

"What's your name?" The teacher says blandly.

"Onyx Morana," I answer.

"Hop on, make sure you fill up from the back!" He calls out as I make my way through the rows of chairs.

I hear Val and the twins yelling for me and waving their hands like lunatics, I chuckle and head to the back with a smile on my face. Those are becoming more and more frequent.

"Hey guys!" I wave to them as Ace shuffles to the side so I can take the seat in the centre.

"Hey girl!" Val greets.

"Brought snacks?" Ace asks, I shake my head laughing as I throw him a packet of popcorn.

Mace just sits with her back resting against the wall reading a book, Six of Crows by the look of it.

"Good book," I gesture at the paperback in her hand.

"Yeah, it's my favourite," she smiles.

Val waves a box infront of me, her face asking me a question. I just look at the box, then look at her puzzled. "Want some gum?" Is all she says showing me the front of the packet.

"Yeah thanks," I throw the piece of gum into my mouth, chewing a few times.

I decide to get comfortable, it is a four hour drive after all. If only they selected a closer location.

I plug in my headphones and start my playlist, the song 'Maneater' by Nelly Furtado starts playing.

I wanna see you all
on your knees knees,

Either wanna be with me
Or be me.

Come on now,

Maneater.

Make you work hard
Make you spend
Hard,

Make you want all
Her love.

This song just makes me wanna strut through the halls shooting and seducing everyone. If only I could do that without getting kicked out.

I'm in the middle of my daydream when I hear a snicker. I look up to see Knox standing there with Dion and Tyler at his sides, he looks down at me.

"Get out of our seat," Knox speaks.

"Boooo!" Ace cries throwing his popcorn at the boys.

Knox just scowls and turns to me.

"Move," He threatens.

"What makes you think I would listen to you?" I laugh.

"Listen here, you will move," he seethes.

"Why? What you gonna do? Are you gonna punish me daddy?" I tease.

"Move." He grits his teeth.

I turn my head in curiosity, "Make me." I take a quick look from his shoes to his eyes.

Ive sensed I've made a mistake. . .
