A Hell Full Of Angels

Sent Away

Abigail at top

Fuck this, was the only thing going through my head as I lay in the back of the car my music as loud as it could be to block out the world and the shit-filled turn it was about to take. It was two days ago that the neanderthal my mother calls a father found me kissing another girl I knew telling them was a bad idea from the start so I said nothing. Things were going well with the secret love I was having with this girl but it all fell apart when we were out one day and we kissed I was too focused on her to realize my father was just a few feet away. He saw it all and as soon as the kiss was over he yelled at me and began saying that he had taught me better and that no daughter of his would be a Dyke. That was the last straw I can handle it when he says he taught me but to call himself my father when he is not and that word Dyke I flipped and yelled back at him.

After that it was over he grabbed me by my arm and dragged me to the car when I got home he locked me in my room my mother asked why and I hoped she would help but when my dad told her what he saw she agreed. I was left in my room for two full days only allowed out for food and then it happened my Mum and 'dad' told me that because they love me they had found a school where people who are gay were sent to be cleansed. So now here I am being driven to what feels like my own execution as I let my music blast in my ears I see my mother point to her ear telling me to take them off I sighed and took them off.

"Don't be like that when you come away from this school next summer you will be all better," My mother said my stomach churning at the words she said.

I grunted.

"This is because we love you soon you will understand that, and look here we are," My mother said as we pulled into a car park with a bunch of kids holding the same face as me.

I slowly got out and grabbed my stuff without a word to my mother I looked around and saw kids get on a few coaches my mother took me to a woman with a clipboard as she ushered kids onto a coach.

"Hello," my mother said as we approached her.

"Oh hi there my name is Anna I am one of the teachers at the school but I also help transport the kids to the school," She said as she went to shake my mother's hand.

"Wonderful to meet you," My mother said shaking her hand as I just scowled at her.

"And who is the girl?" Anna said turning to see my scowl.

"My daughter, she has unfortunately fallen for other girls," My mother said.

"Don't worry at this school we accommodate education and re-education?" Anna said.

"Yes, your website was very explicit in that" My mothers said.

"Well if she can just put her name on this and stick it to her stuff and then put her stuff on the coach storage hold and then find a seat we can be off," Anna said.

I knew that arguing was out of the question so I put my stuff away in the coach and then got on to the coach as I got on a lot of kids were talking some laughing and others smiling it was as if all the faces had changed. I found a seat three rows from the back next to a girl that looked as pissed and sad as me I sat down and she looked at me and then realized it was the only seat left and turned away.

"I feel your pain," I said and she turned back to me.

"Nova" Was all she said.

"Sorry," I said not understanding what she said.

"My name, it's Nova" She with a hint of a smile.

"I'm Abigail," I said with a smile.

"Huh cute," Nova said.

"Hey, you two must be new" A girl in one of the seats in front of us says to us as she leans over her seat.

"Yeah," We both said the same way and in unison.

"My name is Holly and this place is not as bad as it seems," Holly said.

"How so," I asked.

"Well for starters this is anything but a gay conversions school we go here as a safe haven, at this school we can be as gay or bi as we fucking want," Holly said.

"Your serious" Nova said her voice full of hope.

"Totaly you'll find out at orientation when we arrive and join the boys," Holly said.

"How many kids do you think are going here," I asked.

"Judging by the number of coaches and the number of kids per coach plus the boys already at the school I would hazard a guess at 600," Holly said.

"Wow must be a huge school," I said.

"Yeah, and what do you mean by boys," Nova said.

"The school during the night and classes just like the dorms at all times is split into two buildings one for the girls and one for the guys but during times like lunch and after school we can go and look around the other areas," Holly said.

"Is it any different?" I said.

"Other than being full of boys rather than girls the only other difference is that it is slightly messier," Holly said.

"As expected from a bunch of filthy fucking boys," Nova said.

"Wow you really don't like boys do you," Holly said and Nova sent her a death glare.

"And that face says 'press me further and I shall tear your face off' so I'll leave it there," Holly said.

"So what about this dorm you mentioned," I said to change the subject.

"Oh that's right we stay in dorms one building for girls and one for boys on other ends of the campus and for some reason it's four to a room so, you wanna room with me," Holly said.

"How does that work," I asked

"Well when we give our name to the administration they will ask who we would like to room with and if those same people say the same names you get to room with them," Holly said.

"I thought you said it was four to a room," I said.

"It is but if we all say each other's names then our last will be someone who doesn't care who they room with," Holly said.

"Sound's like a plan to me," I said and looked to Nova for validation.

"Fine I'll room with you two dorks," She said with a small smile.

"Alright, this is going to be the best year ever" Holly said.

"Okay girls if you could please sit down and we can be off, you all know how this works by now but for newcomers, all will be explained at orientation," Anna said as she got on the bus.
