Cinderella in Reverse

Five - A Legacy is Born

S/O GOES TO @vanillacupcakes_2 for giving me a dedication in their story, Tangled Love. Check it out! It's a must read.

I woke up the next day, after having a splendid evening shower in the massive bathroom. Last night I went and spoke to Finn about how I wanted to keep our living arrangements a secret, and he happily obliged.

"If people found out YOU lived here, they're going to assume I actually hang out with people like you." he had spat.

"Excuse me?" I had glared.

"Whatever, goodnight." He said, walking away.

"Barely!" I retorted. Ugh! What a jerk! But why do my palms get sweaty whenever I'm around him Ugh! Crushes suck!

"Theo, pass me the butter." I gritted, after repeating the same request over and over again. Finn, Theo and I were eating breakfast – apple cinnamon pancakes, my absolute favourite.

"Go get it yourself! You've got two legs, use them!" he argued.

Finn sniggered. "But she wouldn't know that, little brother, - she always sleeps in Biology class!"

They cracked up, and I shot them both an icy glare. "Well, since you think you're so smart, then-"

"Oh Sophia, I know so." Theo cut in.

"Then why don't you go get it for me? Or are you worried your airheaded-ness will make you drop it? I know gravity doesn't always work in your favour." I shot back.

He growled before grabbing the butter and thrusting it at me. "Just take it."

"Thanks." I mumbled. The Callahan brothers are just so...argh!

I was about to walk into Miss Reardon's classroom at school during third period where I saw her in the hallway, speaking to the principal, Mrs Appleby.

"Hey, Miss Reardon." I muttered.

"Get to class." Mrs Appleby sneered, causing me to walk briskly into the classroom in fear. Run away, Sophia. You do NOT want to feel the wrath of the Snap-pleby.

Snap-pleby. I like that. Hehe.

I went inside and slid into my seat, where Vienna was sitting next to, looking nervous. She bit her lip in discomfort. Maybe it had something to do with Miss Reardon?

"Creepy stalker at 6 o'clock," Vienna whispered. I whipped my head around to see Zeke looking at me like I was some kind of meal. Gross.
