Chapter 7

-"Rise and shine, my dear!"

I was immediately up and threw a pillow at surprised Neil. Guess he didn't believe I was really up this early.

-"You have thirty minutes to get ready, or I'll drive to school without you!" He disappeared somewhere behind my doors and I groaned.

I didn't like early mornings, but I have to get up. I can't be late on my first day. Ahhhh.

I quickly shower and threw the first hoodie on line, and it really didn't matter because they were all the same, color and size.

When I finally went downstairs, after wasting fifteen minutes dressing up, Regina handed me my breakfast, and I was out of the house.

Neil was already in his car, waiting for me, and was very surprised when I got in. He stared at me for a moment, till I spoke. -"Can we drive?"

-"Sure." He chuckled and shook his head, then started the car and drove out of his territory making our way to school.

After what seemed like forever, he drove into the schools parking lot and we got out. -"I'll led you to the principals office, Sim, are you okay?"

-"Sure I am." I followed him and I felt lot of eyes on me. Probably because I was the new student, and also, the school year has already started, they probably wandered why I was here. But listen up, asholes, I'm here to study.

Neil knocked on the principals door and without waiting an answer walked in, I'm the middle of conversation.

-"Neil, what do you think you're doing?" Yepp, the principal was angry. Upsss.

-"The new student." He gestured towards me, and even the boy who the principal was talking to, turned to look at me.

I furrowed my brow at him, as he was looking me up and down.

-"Simone Reece, am I right?"

-"Yes, this time you're right." I answered without thinking, only realizing what I did after I said that.

The principal crossed his arms and looked me up and down too. Do all the boys do that?

I made an innocent face, secretly hoping he wouldn't give me detention in the first day. After a moment of intensive staring, he gave me my paper with all the classes.

I smiled innocently, when he gestured us to move out of the room. We slowly made our way to my first classroom, who wasn't even that far, i was just slowing down, and Neil had to wait for me to catch up.

Unfortunately, Neil has a different class now, so I will be the alone going in. -"The kids aren't that bad, they nicely accept new students."

-"Really?" I asked, with skepticism in my voice, not really believing him.

-"No. I was just trying to be nice. Don't die!" He waves bye and smiling walks away.

I sigh and finally make my way into the classroom, right when the bell rings. I didn't notice that we were that late already.

-"Are you sure you're in the right classroom, kid? This is 12th grade." The male teacher asked as soon as he saw me, looking me up and down.

-"I'm sure I'm in the right one." I said almost snapping back.

I wasn't even that short, I just looked young.

-"Alright, tell everybody your name and age then." The teacher said.
-"I'm Simone, and I'm sixteen..." I started.

-"Just go sit somewhere. Everybody, I want you all to take in Simone nicely." The teacher cut me off, and I glared at him, but he just ignored me.

Nobody answered, of course, they were too busy minding their own business. Alright, that's a good sign, right?

I walked all the way to back, and took one seat there, when someone slowly came into the classroom. Not someone, it was the boy from the principals office.

-"Mateo Lennon, you're late." The teacher was pissed off.

-"I know." Was his answer, and he said it so casually, like he was doing it very not rarely.

He walked over to back and sat besides me, because it was the only seat left free.

I carefully listened what teacher had to say, and wrote it all down in my textbook, scanning over it and searching if I already knew the subject.

It was easy to focus on the teacher, even thought besides me was the prettiest boy I've ever seen. He has gorgeous black hair, and all I waned to do was to play with them all day long... but that won't be possible, seeing as how fast people get tired of me.

-"Are you done staring at me?" He finally asked me, glaring at me.

-"Nope." I answered, smiling innocent smile.

-"Stop it. I can't focus on the teacher." Mateo tried again, but I just smirked.

-"But I can, and I won't stop staring." I completely turned towards him, only now seeing his green eyes.

He glared at me for a moment, then I heard the teacher calling me. -"Simone and Mateo, are you done talking?"

-"No."

-"You can finish your staring and talking later, now listen." I looked at the teacher, writing down everything he said.

After the class ended, Neil waited me outside and we made our way to our next class. -"I saw you sit with Mateo, you better don't involve with him."

"Why not?" I frown.

-"Well he's a nerd." He said, and looked around.

-"So?"

-"He's a computer genius. If you mess with him, he'll mess with your phone or laptop..."

-"Are you kidding? He's a computer genius?" I almost started jump from excitement.

I have always loved hacking geniuses, but in the orphanage were only two, - Luke and some other kid.

-"Yes, he is." He said, as we walked in our next classroom. We sat down, and tried focus on the teacher.

-"Why didn't you told me that earlier?"

-"Told you what? That Mateo is a hacker genius? I didn't know you would want to know, oh wait- you don't think about talking to him, right?" He looks suspiciously at me.

-"Why not?" I frown.

-"He doesn't like anyone." He says it like a fact, too obvious for me not to see.

-"So? I don't need to get him to like me, I just need some lessons in hacking from him." I shrugged, and tried turning my attention back to the teacher.

-"You're insane." He said.

-"I know! Isn't it great?" I smiled at him.
