Nyctophobia

Jades P.O.V.

I'm walking down the hallway while holding my phone. I suddenly hear my name. "Miss Miller!", the voice said, "come over to my office". It was my teacher Mrs. Allston. I turned around, and saw her right behind me. "Yes Mrs. Allston".

Once we arrived at her office she told me to sit down. My teachers office was full of bookshelves and they were overloaded with books. Right in the middle of the room was her small desk, also full of books. Her office had a weird musty smell. I didn't really want to sit on the broken armchair in front her desk, but I had to. I sat down feeling her old grey eyes staring at me. I didn't want to look up. "Jade Miller. I think you already know why I brought you here, right?", she said with her old crusty voice.

Of course I knew why. I'm not the best behaved student in this school, I get into fights for fun. But... this time it didn't come out that good. I punched a small guy right on his nose. Now it comes out that I broke his nose.

"Yes, Mrs. Allston, I know why. But I didn't want this to happen! It was not my-"
"Miss, no excuses, go and visit the director, right now" she said, "good luck"

I was in big trouble. It's not as if I really cared about having to visit the director, it's the fact that I didn't know what would happen once I came back home. My home. It was the last day before vacations, why did I mess things up like this?

On my was to Mr. Frank's office I thought of an excuse to tell him. Or a way to escape this situation. I knew that my group of friends would help me in this situation, but I didn't know how.

Before I realized, I was running. But not to the directors office, of course not. I was running to our secret place.
