My Principal. (H.S.)

Chapter 9.

It has been three weeks since Harry and I have spoken.

No detentions, I don't get sent to the office at all.

I'm trying my hardest to avoid him and surprisingly enough, it's working. I've been studying for my finals that are coming up this week, the school year is almost over. Us Seniors are getting prepared for Graduation, we have three hour Exams to complete as well.

It is stressful but I am quite relieved to be getting out of this bullshit school.

I have an apartment lined up for me and Patrick this August in Pullman, Washington. We both got our acceptance letters from WSU quite early.

Me and Patrick both got in!

I can honestly say that I was quite thrilled, so was my mother.

Patrick was so happy he nearly did a back flip.

We have a month left of school left and I could not be happier, honestly. I was very miserable over Harry but I am slowly mending from it, plus I met this guy ; his name is Shaun. Shaun has been around since Freshmen year and we always just said 'Hi' too each other, always exchanging small smiles here and there. He took me to the movies recently and I actually laughed for once, it was kind of incredible. Shaun is very sweet and kind, and considerate.

It is my last class of the day, boy am I exhausted.

I make a 'click' sound with my tongue, putting my homework into my book bag ; have to study for finals. I look through my book bag, looking for my phone. I pull out my phone and text Patrick, telling him to meet me at my vehicle right after school, we are going out for coffee.

The bell rings and I stand up, making my way out of the classroom with anticipation.

I can't help but stare at Harry while he talks to Ms. Tina by the lockers, his mannerisms seem quite determined and soft as he speaks, making gestures with his hands. Ms. Tina giggles, her hand covers her mouth, preventing her from laughing even harder, Ms. Tina has painted blue sparkly nails and a skinny form. I clench my jaw, annoyed.

A childish thought comes too mind, I skip over to Shaun who just so happens to be right by them.

"Hey Shaun." I smile wide, batting my eye lashes. I lean in to kiss his cheek and as I do so, Harry turns around to see.

"Hey babe." Shaun smiles, I bite my lip.

"What are you doing tonight?" Shaun asks, I can see at the corner of my eye that Harry is looking at us with a sharp glare.

"Was thinking we can do something." I suggest, taking Shaun's hand, caressing it.

"Maybe we can go for dinner at eight? I have football practice but I am sure we will have time." Shaun says, and I nod.

"Of course," I say, grinning "baby." I can hear Harry mumble some incoherent words to Ms. Tina, then he suddenly walks towards me and Shaun.

"Ms. Rennedy, we need to talk. Now." I turn to look at Harry, he looks angry. I give him a clueless look, "Why is that?" I respond, crossing my arms in an annoyed matter.

"I am the Principal, do not question my orders, it is about Graduation." Harrys harshness almost causes me to grin, but I just roll my eyes and turn to Shaun.

"Dinner at eight sounds great, I will see you then." I peck Shaun's cheek, just to annoy Harry.

Shaun smiles softly, squeezes my hand gently and mumbles "Good luck." I nod. Harry has an annoyed look on his face the entire time.

Harry and I walk towards his office, and as soon as we get in it, I drop my book bag on the floor.

"What do you want, Harry ." I say in the angriest voice I can muster.
