As Gracelynn Jones stepped out of her mother's car, she could have sworn she felt her stomach twist into a knot at the sight of the large castle like building that had a Hogwarts appeal between its ivy covered bricks and castle like points. She hovered beside the back passenger door, hand gripping the side as she debated on rushing back inside the SUV and locking herself in.
She had tried to make her disagreement for this sudden arrangement known by refusing to pack till the last minute with Brittany and Santana, along with multiple arguments with multiple members of her family. She had been carried into the car by Brittany that morning when they said their goodbyes — so many tears and pleads to Mercedes to talk sense into Destiny — and not to mention her full refusal to let go of Quinn when the blonde finally forced herself to say goodbye.
They promised it wouldn't be forever.
She had no clue where her mother had even found this school. Silvestro Academy seemed like a boarding school for troubled teens in all the pamphlets Ella had tried to show her the days leading up to her move in. Sure, it was nice she could bring the babies and Simba, but the thought of rooming with a stranger on top of joining a new school to focus on her 'mental health' with professionals seemed like a fancy way of hiding that she was being scent straight back to Archers.
At least there was a zero tolerance policy for bullying?
Just because there is no tolerance doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
Her green eyes, puffy and tired, searched the front lawn and the large metal fence that had granted access to the family through a sophisticated looking intercom. She eyed the closed fence with curious eyes, not at all able to think about climbing over such a tall and heavily guarded structure that seemed to disappear into the woods.
For all she knew, the fence never ended. She'd be locked in with these other troubled teens and her children the second her parents drove out of the gate and down the long driveway through the woods back towards the boarder to cross back into America.
When she asked to go across the border, she meant learn about her Cuban heritage, not get stuck in a Canadian home for troubled youth.
The sound of her suitcase hitting the pavement broke Grace out of her thoughts, dragging her eyes away from the large courtyard and fancy fountain as she looked towards the back of her mother's sterling silver car where Destiny was taking her belongings from the trunk.
"Mommy." Grace whimpered the second Ella rounded the back to help gather her daughter's things. She could feel her face heat up as tears burned in her eyes, adding to the hoarse tone in her voice from the day's emotions. "Can't I go to like-like Carmel or...or St. Mary? McKinley wasn't that bad!"
