The gap between us - ( Seven deadly sins)

Chapter 8 - Back to school

- Melody Pov -

As soon as I passed through the gates I was bombarded by my friends yelling and running at me. It hadn't been that long since I saw them last, but even so, the suspension I had received was quite annoying as I couldn't enter the school premises without getting in trouble. Not that I fucking wanted to go to school anyway.  But I missed seeing my friends.

Killia was the first to reach me. I looked into her eyes and all I could see was hell itself. She suddenly grabbed me by the shoulders and started violently shaking me back and forth. "What were you thinking!? Are you an idiot, why did you pick a fight with Mr Sturd!?" She yelled accusingly and let go of my shoulders. "You're stupid if you think I'll let you live this down!"

I sighed softly and grinned at my BF. Trying to brush off her criticism. "It's nice to see you too, Killia." I said slowly and kindly. I was rewarded with a flick on the forehead and a deadly glare.

"Don't you try and change the subject ya moron!"

"Ouch! Not only did that hurt my forehead, but it also hurt my feelings."I looked at her blankly and she face palmed.

"Well If you hadn't of done what you did then I wouldn't have had to flick you... I mean blah blah blah blah." I stared off into the distance as she continued scolding me, I felt no obligation to listen to her...I mean, she doesn't even understand how I feel. I looked up to my father and he left me, I worked hard to achieve my goals only to make him proud, to make him smile again. I did what I did because I was hurt...because I felt abandoned.
Dad threw me away like I was trash and left me with my uncle. I was so beside myself with anger that I thought if I did something bad, then he would come back and scold me, to take me home and talk about why I did it. To care about me. But I was wrong.

"Mody....Mel...Melody!" I was pulled from my thoughts by Killia clicking her fingers in my face. "Are you even listening to what I'm saying!?" She hissed at me with her hands on her hips. 

I grinned with my eyes closed as I rubbed the back of my head. "Guess I got lost in thought, sorry."

She huffed and grabbed me by the arm. "Let's just go to class...you don't need another bad mark to your name."

"I guess not." I spoke, looking back at Deloris and Nora walking behind us, hesitant to speak or do anything. I smiled at them before being yanked by Killia into the front doors of the school.

------------------------

I watched Ms. Vivian as she wrote down the different types of spells and curses on the board. Learning about magic was always boring. It didn't matter which teacher we had, it just sucked. I stared up at the ceiling as I tilted back in my chair. At some point during my daze I had completely forgotten to pay attention to the teacher. Suddenly I felt everyone's eyes on me as I looked towards the front; Ms. Vivian had her finger pointed at me and an irritated look on her face. I just plainly stared at her like she'd asked me the meaning of life.

"I asked you Ms Wrathen...what is the first thing a mage should do when hit by stasis?" She asked with a terrifying glare set into me. 'When did she ask me this?' I thought. Confusion written all over my face.

I desperately looked beside me at Nora; a girl who excels in spell casting and potions, for any kind of help, but she just looked at me and shrugged. I had nothing. "Ummmm? Wouldn't...they be frozen in place?" I questioned.

"Yes."

"Then why did you ask me this?" I asked while sticking my finger in my ear.

She sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. "I was making sure you were listening to me..." She tried to contain her frustration.

"Whatever." I groaned. "It's not like any of what you're teaching matters to me anyway." I sassed with narrowed eyes. I started counting down the seconds in my head. The bell would be going soon.
I suddenly smirked at Ms Vivian as the sound of the recess bell rung through the room. "Looks like that's my cue to leave, see ya." I got up and walked out of the class along with everyone else. Ignoring my teacher calling my name.

Stupid bitch.

--------------------

During my break, I finally got some time to sit down and chat with Nora and Deloris. Nora suddenly pulled a spell book out of thin air and began reading through the pages, I huffed as I leaned on my hand, elbow keeping my head from falling onto the table.
Deloris looked just as bored as I did. Wait!? Deloris!

"Hey, can I ask you something?" I whispered to the girl as I glanced over at Nora who at the time had her nose stuck in her book.

"Yeah, but it better not be about how to use tampons again...that was an awkward conversation." She said with a disgusted look.

"What? No! I was going to ask about your brother."

"What about him?" She gave me a quick smirk, but I kicked her under the table. "Ouch!"

"Oh get over yourself, anyway I was wondering if he went to this school. Cause I met him last night by accident and I haven't seen him around this school the entire time I've been going here. " she sighed.

"He does...he's just really good at disappearing." She seemed disappointed, I wonder why?

"Why does he disappear? Is he getting bullied by someone?"

"No. He skips a lot of classes and gets in trouble a lot, right now he's in a detention for skipping HPE. Once he was even caught drinking vodka at the back of the science lab. He's not the best influence, so steer clear of him, okay?" She spoke with so much distaste towards her brother that it actually made me kind of mad, but I pushed it down and decided to bite my tongue.

"Okay...I promise I'll stay away." I forced a smile and got out of my seat.
'No way in hell am I staying away from him. An opportunity like this doesn't come up very often.' I clenched my fists as I walked towards the exit, a huge grin plastered on my face and an undeniably bright fire burning in my eyes.

Deloris you stupid idiot, of course I'm going to hang out with your misguided brother...he's too hot to forget about. I'd be an idiot and a scoundrel if that were the case.

Life just got a whole lot more fucking interesting.

Quick question for you guys...should I make this a pregnancy fanfic? I just feel like that would give it more depth and spice. But I wasn't sure so I'm asking for your opinions.

Anyways hope you enjoyed my chapter and I'll see you later! ❤
