Screw this. How did I get in??? What am I going to say to this?

“Oh ya… Um, I was a bad student… Ya. I was missing school and vandalizing property and stuff… Um.. What about you?” I make up a lie because what else am I supposed to do!

“Well, that doesn’t sound too bad..At least compared to some of us. I self-harmed… For several reasons. I realize now how stupid I was being. All my friends were worried and they still are…” Chris lifts up his sleeves, showing the white scars up his arm.

“What about the others?” I ask in a quiet voice

“Well, I saw you were hanging with Kelly and Beth so basically Beth had almost the same story as me. Kelly… Well, she’s another story. She was on drugs for quite a while,” knew it. “It messed her up real bad but even though she’s smart she’s too hyperactive for any other school. At least that’s what her parents and the school board think.”

“Well if you get better don’t they let you go?” I ask confused

“Not really… It’s more like a prison then a ‘reformatory’, unless that is, your parents ask for you back. Usually the parents don’t give a shit. It’s easier for them to just pay for us and not deal with it.”

 ‘At least you have parents’ I thought.

“What about some of those stupid guys?”

“I'm assuming you mean Ashton. He was accused of raping his girlfriend..” he says.  Wait isn’t he like 14?

“Yes he is.” Did I say that out loud?

“Yes you did” he says with a chuckle

“I’ll stop now.” I say, purposely this time.

“But ya, that’s pretty intense for a young guy” he adds with closure.

"I can't imagine... Well I should probably go back to my room and see if my roommate is done having sex."

"You mean Natalia?" 

"I guess. I haven't met her yet cuz you know... I walked in on them.. so... ya." I say awkwardly

"Don't worry about Natalia, she's nice.. but she's a sex addict and that's why she's here. You'll like her." 

"Ya I hope so.. Better than the rainbow/darkness club right?" I joke about my new friends. I'll have to get used to everyone here. He laughs and I'm glad he's becoming a friend. Wow. I made three friends today. If I'm lucky then I might even get to four.

"Well it was nice meeting you Chrissy, see you sometime." he says walking away.

"Bye Chris!" I reply and smile to myself. My tablet buzzes and I jump, scared of the loud noise. It's a text from the headquarters.

You know, for a spy, you are very social.I don't like it.

Were they watching me! Stalkers.

I'm going to give them a piece of my mind:

I talked to three people, and yelled at one, how is that considered 'social'. In my defense, they came up to me. I must keep up appearences. I'm not mute.

-Chrissy the Ninja #1

I start to walk back to the dorm room when I trip over something. A foot. Ashton's foot.

"ASHTON, will you please stop making me fall! It's the second time today!" I yell

"Oh you know my name. I've already got you screaming it! Looks like I'm better than I thought!"

"A little cocky are you?"

"Well it's more like big.." Ew. I roll my eyes at that disturbing comment

"Not as big as your ego." I reply with a sting in my voice.

"You're fiesty.." he says, wrapping his arms around me, "I like that in a girl"

I'm trying to decide between breaking his arms or his nose... Well that would break my cover.. I guess I could just knee him in the groin. I do and curses leave his mouth as he lets go and drop down to his knees.  Ha.

"Bye bye!" I say, a sarcastic smile playing on my lips.

I finally ge to the room and unlock the door to find that they're done and there is no procreation going on. Thank goodness.

It surprises me how clean the room is, considering a teenage girl lives in it.. It's a nice dorm too. There's a small kitchen area (a sink, microwave, and minifridge), a bathroom, a big living space with couch and coffee table, and our shared room with two beds and two nighttables with lamps that match the pale green walls. I wonder what she looks like.. I only saw her for a few seconds.

A pretty girl with lush black hair and green eyes walks in from the bathroom. She puts her hand out to shake:

"Hi, I'm Natalia. You must be my roommate, Chrissy." she says in a very pronounced accent I immediately recognize as Eastern European. 

In the agency we're trained to know basic accents by heart: South American, Canadian (obviously), French, African, Chinese, Middle Eastern and surrounding, Australian, American, European, German, and Russian.

We shake hands, "Yep, I'm Chrissy. I guess we're going to be roommates from now on." I smile at her.

"Great! Well, I'll go somewhere so you can have time to unpack." I start to tell her she doesn't have to leave but she insists and goes.

At least I shouldn't worry about not having privacy to do my work. I wait a few minutes before making sure she has no cameras put up before I put mine. I install the micro chip in a small crevice angled under a cupboard. Done. I send a notification that the chip was installed to the headquarters and start to unpack my suitcase, organizing my medium amount of clothes in the closet. Natalia had moved her clothes to one side, giving me plenty of unused space. 

Once I'm done, I sit down on my bed and put my earplugs in, listening to music since I have nothing else to do. Ed Sheeran sings to me while I think about my mission.

I have to find a spy in this school. I can't imagine it being Chris. Natalia is too noticable and her accent is prominent but she could be. Ashton is definately suspect. I don't know about Kelly and Beth though... It's possible.. They all are. 

I guess I'll find out soon.

Not sure if this was long.. But I hope this was enough to make up for the not updating thing... so ya. IM TRYING
