CHAPTER SIX

"Class, what is the periodic compound for aluminium nitrate?" Ms Kennedy asked the class though Aiden was occupied with a question of his own, a question in which he probably shouldn't be thinking but it was a question that he couldn't stop asking from the moment he became Ladybeetle, is she going to be his next fight. You see, last year the ginger-haired teacher broke down in the middle of class and ever since she had lost all respect from her student, what if she breaks down again? The new Hawkmoth will surely take advantage of that opportunity.

One of the boys sitting at the back called out, "Why should we tell you, you're the teacher."

"Yeah! You're the teacher Heather," one of the boy's friends echoed.

Ian Cunningham, the class crown and school eshay, Ian never goes to school without some weed in his pocket, Aiden hates him.

"Josh please call me Ms Kennedy, I'm your teacher, not your friend. Ian, we've had this discussion before," Aiden was starting to feel bad, he would answer the question but the truth is he doesn't know the answer.

Benji raised his hand, "The answer is Al(NO3)3"

Ms Kennedy smiled, "That's correct Benji~" the bell rang, "okay class, it's three, remember to do your homework and get home safely."

"Good job Benny," Andy smiled as she gave her best friend a high five. Andy was getting D's in most of her classes so the smallest things academically wise was impressive to her.

He shrugged, "It was nothing, the question was actually really easy."

"You still coming as moral support?"

Benji smiled sadly, "Of course. Andrea, you were there for me when I needed someone, now it's my turn."

"I'll see you at the cafe."

"Hi Andrea, my name is Daniella, I'm your social worker that means if there is anything you want to talk about or anything you are unhappy with you can talk to me," Andy nodded, she knew what was going to happen, Benji explained the whole system to her.

Andy was wearing a semi-formal outfit, her dark purple dress was above her knees, she was wearing a royal purple cardigan with boots and stockings, the twins and Olivia helped her go shopping for the outfit. "What happened to Kirra?"

"Kirra's on maternal leave but she personally chose me to take care of you."

Andy frowned, Kirra Minjarra was Andy's caseworker, Andy only knew the lady for a total of six weeks, she met her a day after her father died, Andy had grown fond of Kirra.

"How are you settling in with the Quinns?"

Straight to the point? Normally with Kirra, she subtle would ask questions, honestly, Andy didn't mind the new change, "They are nice. Olivia always wants me to go shopping with her and the girls, Darrell always takes me to Leo's swimming lessons, Leo is probably my favourite of them, he is five. I'm grateful for the Quinns, the twins they didn't need to take me in while I find a permanent home but I'm glad that they did," Andy mentally ticked off each dot point she had prepared for this speech.

The adult nodded, though something in Andy told her she wasn't believing optimism. Daniella looked at the menu and spoke changing the topic, Andy figured didn't want to over question her, "What would you like? No price is too much."

"A milkshake and Lamingtons please," Andy said unsurely, her attention suddenly being snatched away, "Mary Beth?"

The social worker turned to see who Andy was talking about, she made a small oh, "Is that Mary Beth Calloway? The new Hawkmoth's latest victim?"

Andy felt her heart go hard, victim, "Yeah..."

"How do you feel about the new Hawkmoth? Are you worried about becoming his victim? Losing a parent can put you in a vulnerable position when it comes to the new Hawkmoth's abilities." Andy looked away, she didn't want to talk about the new Hawkmoth, she didn't want to talk about herself. Seeing Benji, she gave him the signal, he nodded back.

Benji talked up to the table with the biggest possible smile on his face, "Andy! Hey! What are you doing here?"

"Hey, Benji!"

"Wait- You're Benji Dale, Starrymoonxx. One of the little girls I work with is a huge fan of yours, you have such an amazing voice," one of the plus sides of having a famous friend is that they can be used as a great distraction.

Benji blushed, he was still getting used to being recognised in the public, "Thank you, Andrea actually has a good voice too-"

"No I don't," she shook her head, "You're just being nice," Andy gave him a little glare.

"Is that Mary Beth on a date with Ryder Jeweller?"

"That's what I thought," Ryder Jeweller is one of the year twelves from their school, Ryder is an introvert and Benji and Andy never would have been able to guess that Mary Beth was their type.

Benji down next to Andy and the look on Daniella's face almost made the teenagers break into laugher, "Daniella, Benji's my best friend, can he please stay? I would feel more comfortable if he stayed."

The Latina girl sighed, "Of course." Andy and Benji high fived under the table, knowing that with Benji here Daniella won't want to talk about anything serious. "Actually we have talked about everything we needed to, plus I'll still see you in a fortnight."

Andy smiled widely, as she saw one of her classmates bring her food over, Andy actually hadn't eaten since breakfast and was starving.

Holland Cockburn is the sixteen-year-old son of Mr Cockburn and Benji's competition, "H-hi Andy, here's your milkshake and lamingtons."

Benji rolled his eyes at the stuttering boy, something which Daniella caught a glimpse of and wrote down.

Sorry if this chapter is a little boring, I just wanted to show y'all a bit of Andy's life.

I actually lightly based this chapter on personal advents, back when I was in foster care I always had social workers taking me to the park or a cafe to ask me about how I am and such.

Anywayssss, I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
