I woke up this morning feeling great and went straight to the shower and changed my clothes.
I went in the mirror to check out my face and there was a bruise under my left eye and on my forehead. There's also a big ass scrape on my right cheek. I touch it and hiss at the sensation.

"Mrs. Harper, I don't condone late comers." Mr. Simon says calmly, almost like this isn't the first time people have come late. Obviously if you
"Sorry I found out I had to walk at the last minute." It wasn't totally a lie, considering maybe there was a slither chance of me having a bus pass.
"Fine, Alexandra this is your first warning. Get started on the worksheet, you can work with others."
I wipe my head in relief and take my seat next to Greyson who's in the middle of a convo yet he still manages to flash me a smile. I'm still deciding if I should guilt trip him with showing him my fa-
