------------Petes pov------------

Pete had always been a bad child, but this? He sat locked away in his room and thought about all of the reasons they could do this. He listed them off in his head.
Always out partying
Lots of drugs and alcohol
Snuck out
Bad grades
Always had a new "girlfriend"
Got into fights
Stole his parents car that one time

Well he wasn't the best kid but he could be worse. He wasn't dead or in jail. He didn't deserve boarding school he knew that he could be really good and hope they would change their minds. He slowly got up and took a deep breath, then unlocked his door and ran downstairs.
"Guys I'm sorry with how I acted, I'll try to be better with it."

His mother was setting dinner on the table and his father answered before she got the chance to.
"That's fine Pete, now are you actually gonna eat dinner with us tonight?"

He nodded and asked his mother if she needed any help.

It was most of the way through dinner and they had Petes favorite, he assumed because they felt bad for showing him that brochure. They didn't even have a form to fill out and send in, so he knew he had time to get them to warm up to him. About half way through diner Pete's dad told him he would need to get shops nights sleep and before Pete could comprehend what that meant, his mother asked if he had packed everything he needed yet.
Then it clicked. He usually got out of punishment by being nice. His parents had caught on to his games, they didn't have a form because they had already sent it in. They told him tonight because they knew he couldn't change it now, even if they decided they didn't want him to go.

He was leaving tomorrow.
