FREAK (Labels Book 1)

Chapter One

"In school, you are taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you are given a test that teahces you a lesson."
-Tom Bodett

"Here you go sweetie this is every thing you need." I was handed a packet of papers. And shooed' out the door because I so desperately needed to be in class.

Not being from around here means it's hard to navigate where your supposed to be going. By the time I actually found my first class it was already half over. I shrugged and opened the door. Almost instantly twenty something pair of eyes turned to face me.

I sat down in the closest empty chair to me and kicked my feet up and layed them on the desk. My bag and board under my chair. I hear the clearing of someone's throat coming from the front of the room. My eyes slipped in that direction. "Yes?" I ask.

The man had to be no more than twenty five. He had on jeans and a black tshirt. His arms were crossed and his eyes held amusement. There was a smirk plastered on his face. He seemed familiar. But from where?

" Miss Thomas please make your way to the front of the class." He took a desk and moved it from the side of the classroom and placed it right next to his, followed by a chair. He pointed to me than pointed to the chair. I couldn't help but laugh. When I was done I looked at him.

"Your serious?" there was no answer he just nodded his head. Slowly I took my feet down from the desk and stood up. The class has not uttered a word since I first walked in. I grabbed my things and walked to the front of the class and placed my things on the floor then preceded to sit in the chair exactly as I had the last.

"Happy?" I smirked he obviously was wanting to get a reaction out of me. I turned around to look at the clock to see when we get out when something on the board caught my eye. My head turned back to the man that is my teacher, than to the board, than to him again.

"I thought I left your no good sorry a-" "Miss Thomas." He cut me off. "Back in Connecticut." he glared and walked to his desk, removing my feet from the desk.

"Do your work." He said dismissivly.

"So your just gonna ignore me now. No hello? How you doing? Nothing? You know it's been a long time how's James? Did he leave you partner less? Is that why you aren't in Connecticut anymore? Why are you here, I mean who goes from where you where to a teacher? Whatever hap-" he slammed his hand on the desk causing a few people in the front rows to flinch. "Close your mouth. And do what you were told." He said through his teeth. I rolled my eyes and looked to the class. I watched as they gathered their things together and waited for the bell. I grabbed my things and headed towards the door.

"Where are you going, sit back down until the bell dismisses you." I turned and looked at James.

"To class." And just as I predicted the bell rang."
