Black Sheep Rodrick X Reader Fan Fiction

Chapter 4- The Fail Safe Program

As you make your way to the main office, you start to rack your brain as to why you were being called down on your first day. Motorcycle? No, you had your license and even asked the secretary where you could park it when you were here last week getting your schedule. Something to do with your Father or aunt? No, they would have sent a text; unless they got into an accident!? You seriously didn't know why you were being called down.

As you turn the hallway, you find the office and see the secretary, Mr. Underwood, waving you forward. As you approach you give a tight lipped smile in acknowledgement. Mr. Underwood seemed like a spineless man who probably only ate microwavable meals at home. You don't know why you thought that, but his vibes just felt like that. Maybe he even still lived at home with his parents? When you met him last week, he was talking your ear off; a sign he didn't talk to people often or at least someone who was forced to talk to him.

"Long time no see, [Y/N]! Don't worry, Mrs. Baxter is ready to speak to you now, good luck." He gives you a thumbs up and points to a large wooden door with a golden name plate saying Mrs. Baxter, Head Counselor. You shrug your backpack over your shoulder and knock on the door. You hear a response back and pull open what felt like the gates of hell. Not only was Mrs. Baxter quite possibly the tiniest person you have ever seen, her entire office was covered in the color yellow. It had started to give you a headache when you noticed who else was sitting in her office. Rodrick sat with his legs spread wide while sinking into the chair. He looks up at you and suddenly sits up straight, both of you giving confused looks as to why the other one was there.

"Ah, Ms [L/N]! Come in, don't be a stranger. Happy first day of senior year huh, girlie?" You slowly make your way to the second chair in front of her desk. You drop your backpack in what feels like slow motion while sitting down. You think she was trying to use teen phrases she heard somewhere and it honestly made you feel more mature than she was.

"It's going... Last period is almost over, why did you want to see me?" You had this look of utter confusion. "And why is Rodrick Heffley also here?" You turn your head slowly to look at Rodrick who looks so annoyed. You don't know if he knows why you're both here yet. He was being hard to read right now.

"Yes, I did call you here last minute, but it's because your history teacher Mr. Huff noticed you two talking in the back of the class before it started. He actually nominated you two." She put her hands together smiling at you two. You thought she might kill you since she had a look in her eyes. Like how a loan shark might look before he was about to kill you.

"Nominated for what?" You didn't feel the need to explain that you weren't friends and the conversation you had in history class earlier was because Rodrick was being a dick and bothering you. You needed to know what the hell Mrs. Baxter was talking about. What does being nominated mean?

"I can only imagine being the new kid is hard, [Y/N] so I wanted to finally test out my new program! Crossland High School wants to start something called 'The Fail Safe Program.' Where we take..." She took a look at Rodrick and hesitated, "Wayward students and then we take students like you [Y/N] who have been shown to have great success. We've seen your test scores and think that you can help Rodrick here become more like you. [Y/N], you already come from such an ambitious family like your dad and your aunt. [Y/N] here will make sure you graduate, Rodrick." She slides and points at both of you. There are several moments of silence between all three of you making quick glances between each other. You are only grounded to reality because you feel your nails dig into the arms of the chair you were sitting in.

"What?" You and Rodrick both exclaim loudly. You both then lean forward towards Mrs. Baxter, trying to figure out what she was talking about. She was looking so happy about her idea, you knew that Rodrick and you both were about to kill her idea so quickly.
