Fairy Tale

Chapter 10: Subject A7

Emily and Sonya sat down in their regular spots on the far side of the class. And she pulled out the computer her fairy godmother gifted her. She started clicking around, figuring out the computer.

"Pretty cool that someone got this for you! Still no idea who?" Sonya asked, leaning over.

Emily's stomach backfliped and her heart fluttered. But Emily shook her head. She really hoped her cheeks didn't turn pink. She felt them heating up, especially when Minho walked into the class. Unfortunately Teresa attached to him.

"Well, it's pretty cool." Sonya shrugged, pulling out her own laptop.

The teacher spent the first half of class going through the first chapter of their textbook, the class taking notes. The last half hour they were supposed to break into their project partners.

"Where'd you get that stuff?" A sharp voice from behind her asked.

Emily took a deep breath. It was going to come sooner or later...Teresa stepped in front of her desk, folding her arms and sticking a hip out.

"Her fairy godmother." Sonya rolled her eyes.

"Excuse me?" Her eyes snapped to Sonya and narrowed. Sonya didn't flinch, she leaned back in her chair, raising her chin, staring right back.

"I don't know Tes. They were in my locker this morning. An agenda, a few notebooks and this laptop- it's a basic model, it's nothing to get upset about."

"You're saying that someone actually spent money on you? Why?"

"Maybe 'cause they heard about her accident and wanted to help." A deep voice said quietly.

Emily felt Minho's presence behind her, and she tensed up, at the same time her cheeks went pick. She lowered her head. Minho had stepped closer to Teresa and pulled her close, kissed her cheek.

"By the looks of it's just a few notebooks, Babe."

"Oh yeah, just surprised that's all. My dear sister just doesn't usually go around looking for handouts from her peers, I don't even think she asked our mother." She said with a slight frown, the corners of her pouty mouth turned down at the corners, her blue eyes looked at Emily with a mix of concern, pitty and slight condisention, like she was scolding Emily. She patted Minho's chest and gave him such a fake smile it made Emily want to puke.

"I just don't want my sister to become someone who takes advantage of other people's generosity."

Minho hummed.

"Don't you have a project partner to go work with?" Sonya asked, standing up abruptly.

Teresa glared at her and finally turned and went to the desk where Thomas was waiting.

"Good luck Love." Sonya muttered as she got up. "Minho." Sonya nodded.

"Sonya." Minho smirked slightly and nodded back.

Minho took Sonya's empty chair.

"Hey Rocky. How ya doing today?" He asked quietly, as he pulled his own stuff out.

Emily shrugged. She knew now without a doubt that Minho and Newt had worked together to make this happen.

"Clinically alive. But very thankful for my fairy godmother."

Minho chuckled, "I haven't heard that one."

Emily kept her head down and gave a small smile.

"It's just been a long two weeks. Now let's get into this project."

Emily and Minho actually worked quite well together. They seemed to be on the same page and had very similar ideas. Emily typed furiously as Minho came up with all sorts of ideas and opportunities. The class was almost over when her phone buzzed. Reaching over she pulled it out.
