The Fall

505

     Senior year, Last year of college, Only a few more months until Harley got her teaching degree, her bachelor's degree. But right now she was sitting in her car, Hung over with a throbbing headache. Maybe going to that last year party last night wasnt the best idea. Especially since she felt like throwing up.

      Harley sighed and grabbed some tums and ibuprofen and put them in a pill container, shoving it into her purse. She left her car, sunglasses on, pink and blonde hair in a bun, Tank top, Brown zip up hoodie, Jeans cuffed, and sandals. And of course her stuffed animal purse. She started walking towards the doors of the campus. English was her first period, let's see who she gets. Either The fun teacher, decent teacher, or put you to sleep teacher.

Harley looked at the room and read the number, 118, not hard to forget. She walked in and sat down in the middle, Harley knew this teacher, Ms Evergreen, she was a nice teacher. But she also put her foot down when needed, and first period is usually sets the mood of the rest of the year. So this year should be okay, right? Well, yeah, but also depends on people. So, Harley carefully watched who came in, No mac. But theres Dean, one of the four she knew since the beginning of highschool. Dean sat next to her. Dean to say the least, well, they looked like JD. You know, The guy that blew up a school in heathers, and has an ear pierced.

Dean looked at harley, "I'm guessing you went to the party?"
Harley nodded, "Bad idea"
They laughed, "Seems like it. Feeling okay?"
She looked at dean. "blob"
Dean nodded, "Yeah understandable, you and Jess are always the ones to go to parties"
Harley sighed, "Yeah, I dont understand why I keep going though, I have the worst hangovers. I'm jealous that jess doesnt even get any"
Dean nodded, watching the people file in. Soon seeing Emma, the newest addition to the friend group. They rose their hand and waved, Emma soon coming up to the two.
Harley looked at dean, "Heeeyyyy do you love m-"
Dean interrupted, "I'm not getting you coffee"
Emma laughed, "C'mon Jason, you have two coffees each morning. Share"
Harley took out an ibuprofen and took Dean's water bottle, Flushing the pill down.
It was coffee in the bottle.

Ms Evergreen started to show the books they'll be reading this year, First book was about Identity. It was a queer book, It was called "Us verses them" it was a history book too. Maybe she thought it was good for the class to learn about lgbtq history, not knowing how many people will say something. Especially the freshmen, right out of highschool. All though they were called freshmen, They were fresh meat. The class went by slowly to Harley, it was one of those intro to the year classes, and so were the rest. But this year was different, The seniors who signed up for internships last year got them this year. Mac got her to sign up, mac was her best friend, the one who had blackmail material on her. The one who she can tell anything to, The first person she met during freshmen year of highschool. Harley and Mac knew each other inside out, and they shared a dorm since the first year at college.

Harley's internship was just being a TA, teacher's assistant, She had to be at the highschool by third period or second. So after Ms Evergreen's class, She went off to her car. Harley sighed and put some music on, Sweater weather, Nice. on the drive to Reginald highschool, She got some coffee at dunkin' doughnuts. Along with some munchkins, why not give the class a treat for the first day. Harley parked in the faculty parking lot, it felt weird. But she brought in her coffee and the classes munchkins, and then went to the office.
Without looking up the secretary said, "New Intern?"
Harley nodded, "Yes, for Mr guy's class"
The secretary nodded, Writing down the room number and handing it to her. "Good luck"

Harley headed downstairs to the basement, Room B18, Criminal science. Harley walked in and put the munchkins down, Mr guy looked at Harley, Pleased. He stood up and looked at the class, "As you all know, I'm Mr Guy, And this will be the teacher's assistant for the year, Ms Sabine"
Harley waved to the class, "Hello everyone, As your teacher said, I'll be helping around and teaching here and there. And yes My last name is Sabine, but feel free to call me Harley. And I brought munchkins from Dunkin"
The class smiled, some kid said, "Shes cool"
Harley smiled and put the two boxes of munchkins on the desk near the door that said "Grab one on your way in!" then sat at the desk for the TA. Mr guy handed out a "introduce yourself" paper, While the students did that, Him and Harley began small talk. Getting to know each other since they'll be working together the whole year.

After third period Harley left the high school, Driving to a cafe for lunch. One period left to go until tomorrow. Harley was texting Mac, seeing what Classes she had. Next class for Mac was Dance, which she loved since she was a kid. But Harley now had biochemistry, which was a favorite of hers. After she had lunch, Harley drove back to campus. She rushed to her biochem class and sat down, The teacher was Mr Bolen. He gladly wasnt the put you to sleep teacher, just a teacher that seemed done with his job. And his students. Biochem went by fast. So Harley decided to try to catch Mac at dance.

Harley sat outside the door, waiting for Mac. Mac soon came outside, Her afro in a bun, Purple lipstick like normal, Orange shirt under a black dress. Black eyes blended into her dark skin, Her black hair was so fluffy. Harley waved, Mac smiled. "Hey bubs"
Harley stood up, "Hey Mac, my internship is actually going well!"
Mac smiled and started walking to their dorm, "That's good, I gotta change before I head off to mine, Its at Aroma Haxer. Candles"
Harley laughed, "Fitting, with your amount of candles"
Mac laughed, "Yeah yeah, I dropped off my boxes eariler. Do you have any boxes left?"
Harley shamefully nodded, "Yeah.. I didn't get any chance to take them up."
Mac laughed and headed to the others car. Taking Harleys keys and popping the trunk, Handing Harley some boxes and grabbing some herself. There were a total of Five boxes, One for shoes, one for clothes, one for decor, one for bed stuff (including stuffed animals, Harley has an addiction), and one for books.

Harley opened the door to her and mac's dorm. She put her boxes down and smiled a bit, Then headed down to grab the last box, The dumb book box. It was heavy, but that's what you get with books. Mac smiled, "Have fun unpacking"
Harley sighed and nodded, "Thanks" Sarcasm.
Mac laughed and got ready for her internship, At Aroma Haxer.
Harley sighed, not wanting to be alone for basically all day. Visiting Jess wouldn't be so bad.
