Desmond Prep

Home is where your family is for most people according to the saying at least for me it's different home is a large brick boarding school with creaky floors and old architecture, Desmond Prep the place I have lived for the past three year's of my life.

My family is great but nothing fills me with more validation and accomplishment then this place no place make's me feel more alive because I run this place everyone knows my name people stop and wave they smile at me like I'm some kind of royalty like this place is my castle and I live for it.  

I finish off my outfit with my signature red bow tied on the back of my head with a half up half down hairstyle I gaze at myself in my full length mirror before smoothing my uniform's skirt making sure I look perfect a smile tips up the corner of my perfectly glossed lips before I grab my school bag and leave.

Today I have extra confidence and I need to make sure I look perfect because I'm finally asking out Cain Ramous my friend and prospect love interest since freshmen year. The schools uniform's are not terrible looking and you get a couple option's, today I'm wearing the white button down which I got fitted to be tight around my curves. And I have the signature black skirt and the deep red blazer with the school's crest of a rose.

I elevated the outfit with red Prada necklace and some dainty gold rings and hoop's my Mary Janes and white frilly socks at a nice touch. I stroll through the school dormitory's with my usual confidence and smile plastered on my face I feel extra radiant today.

As I pass people I smile and nod popularity by being mean only last's so long popularity but being nice can last a life time that's a core difference between me and Buffy she instills fear I nod and smile sure I instill fear when I have to but it's not my go to move unlike Buffy only when necessary.

My good mood perk's up when I see Tallulah and Quincy my best friends in the entire world I would kill for them I haven't gotten that far yet but I have threatened some people on more than one occasion.

"Morning lovelies" I give them a warm smile as we stride towards the dinning hall for breakfast.

"Someone is in a good mood" Tallulah nudges my shoulder giving me a slightly suspicious look well Quincy just look's happy "Morning" she grin's.

"So what's got you so chipper?" Tallulah raises her eyebrow she is always so suspicious "I'm asking Cain out today during breakfast" they both gasp what drama queen's they know I have liked him for ages and always thought we would make the perfect power couple.

"But he is a man whore" Quincy frown's disapprovingly so we have all slept around his may be half the student body but Intend to be the last Tallulah laugh's "Quincy can you really be talking dear."

She scoff's before shoving Tallulah's shoulder "Hey be nice, and he is way more of a whore than I am" I sigh "Can you too stop I don't care how many girl's he has been with as long as he agrees to be my boyfriend and stay's monogamist I couldn't care less no need to be insecure over something I have no control over or ability to change unless you too have a time machine."

They both nod and we finally arrive to the dinning hall a massive room with high celling's with skylights allowing sun to shine through there's large stain glass window's and high intercut pillars. The tables are long dark wood slabs with comfortable chairs we make our way over to the buffet filled with ever breakfast food from cornflakes to fresh crepes with cinnamon butter.

After we finish grabbing our food mine consisting of tea a fruit bowl and bagel we go to our usual lunch table in the middle of the room. Quincy and Tallulah sit across from me as we wait for Vinny Cain and unfortunately Buffy who will probably be joining us.
