It's been abut two weeks of dating Luca, Ava in full recovery plus Me and Quinni are actually civil- ALSO Eyyeeee!! I don't know why but I'm so excited for today's Wrath Grading Class, it's like the sparring matches that will determine your rank in the class and shit like that, it was supposed to happen last week but Jugs just didn't feel like it, so it was moved to this week. I mean, GREAT I mean whatever I'm more than ready than ever today.

I just wanna show my stuff today, showoff if you will. Yet, once again I'm disorganised in my room. Bed-Unmade. Pajamas-Floor. Shoes-Scattered. Closet-Exploded. Boots-Afloat above me and my Belt is missing.

Theo groans loudly, "Can you maybe turn off the fu- freaking music" I'd like to tell him to shut up but his right, once again it fails to help me concentrate and prioritize my tasks.  I'm just switching between tasks not getting anything done. I float over my phone and as I do I wonder if my eyes do the cool glowing thing when I use my magic. Ever since that night at the fountain with Ava I've been noticing the way her pupils go white when she's using her magic. I turn off the music on my phone and look to the man watching me from the open doorframe, Luca, "Do my eyes glow or do something weird when I use my magic?"

He doesn't say anything just laughs and goes over to my closet and takes my belt off the line, "7 minutes left to get to class". I take the belt and use my energy to tie the belt around me while I put my feet into the boots.

"Okay well I'm good to go" I say. Standing like a toddler who just completed a task.

We leave my room and walk down the stairs and across the courtyard with much more speed then we usually would. We reach the class and make our way to the back to stay by Blake. "So Quinni looks mean and anxious" she says and I'm so glad she stopped with greetings and conversation starts awhile back, she just gets into the conversation. I look around the room to find Quinni not to far off to the right of us, it's true. They still look mean and cunty but they have a tenser body language and they're fidgeting, anxiety ridden. But why even?

"Why though?" I question Blake.

"Jugs" She says and looks back to watching students. Oh-Okay, that's the full reason? I elbow her and give her an expecting look, which she gets, "Oh shit. I forget sometimes you've only been here for like four-five months, Jugs is kinda an asshole, after the fights yall had he would make you fight again just because and say that he put it that way cause you 'push each other'  " she says the last part exaggerating it and doing air quotes.

"That's fucked up" I say and as I do he decides to walk into the room, with a tablet and e-pen. Both are so enlarged for his hands size.

"Multiple Platforms Today!!" He starts to yell from the entrance of the door. He goes to the big platform circle in the centre for us all to see and hear him clearly, "PLATFORM ONE! Roseline Diaz and Clere Oliver". A platform rises to the left of us and a cute girl who makes little green monsters and a very muscular, Butch Lesbian, looking girl gets on too.

"PLATFORM TWO!! Quinni Noia and Nico Elliot" another Platform rises and Quinni sighs and visibly becomes more relaxed. Good For Her, I guess.

I look to Luca, who seems to have snaked his arm around my shoulders and leans to me lightly without putting any pressure onto me. I look up at him and he looks down at me too, and I know he saw Quinni's visible relief too, so I whisper his phrase back to him. "Make Them Fear You". With his left hand that was rubbing my chest now pinches me, "aow, whore"

"Don't get too cocky, Quinni is strong, believe me I know but they were caught completely offgaurd and acted purely on emotion the second time. If she was being strategic and focused it could've b -"

"more interesting? could've stood a stance? could've been smart enough to save themself the embarrassment ?" I say with so much cockiness I almost become nauseous.
