The Life Of A Freak

Chapter 19

School, a place of learning. A place I haven't gone it what feels like...centuries. If even. I know its only been a decade and a half, but...it just doesn't feel that way. It feels like ten million lifetimes ago.

When Darren and I are done getting the supplies from the store we head to the school and get our uniforms. Then we headed off back to our hotel.

Our uniforms... They... They were something. Mine was a green undershirt and then a white shirt that goes over that, a plaid red tie that pins to the shirt, and a red matching skirt. The skirt goes mid thigh and I wore white sneakers to match the already bright look.

Darren's was similar except he wore pants and not skirts.

Our backpacks really contrasted one another. Darren's was a bright blue turquoise color and mine was a black and red patterned backpack.

When we got to the hotel, it was dark and Larten and Harkat were gone, searching the sewers.

I sigh. I put all the supplies in my bag.

"We need to go back to school tomorrow for our textbooks." I say.

I plop on the bed that Harkat sleeps on.

"You can sleep there tonight, I'm sure Harkat wouldn't mind sleeping on the couch." Darren says.

"No way! That's my couch don't soil it!" I say, seriously.

"O-oh, sorry." He says.

I laugh. "I'm kidding. Well, I'm off to sleep." I stand and go to the couch, and fall asleep. Thursday is down. Off to Friday. Then the weekend. A weekend I usually spend jumping in puddles of mud, or muck. But nope, a weekend of boringness.

The weekend went by slowly, too slow. It was almost torturous, having to stay in.

I'm a wolf, we aren't built to be house pets.

Darren made his lunch, I just asked Larten to give me some money.

Darren ran out of the hotel before I could. I said bye to Harkat and Larten, and went to where the school was.

I didn't know what the school was called. Mahlurs? Was it? I don't know...

I tighten my hat on my head. I have to wear two backpacks. One for my tail the other for my actual school stuff. This outfit bothers me. It has been so long since I've worn a skirt and it just feel so...weird.

When I arrived at the school I was bored, waiting with Darren for the principal to decide and arrive.

It was soooo boring! I sat on the ground and leaned my head up against the wall.

Darren decided to leave and go explore a little.

My tail was getting sore, I was considering standing and going to a restroom, but I didn't as I want to be here when the principal arrives.

Some girls walked up to me.

"Hi!" One girl said cheerfully.

"Hello?" I ask.

There were three of them.

A ginger that stood in the middle of the other two. She was wearing black heels with her school uniform, which looked...strange.

The other two were basically the same. Though the one to the left had blonde hair and the one to the right had brown hair.

"You're the new girl right?" The reddie asks.

"Yeah." I answer shortly.

"Well I'm Cai! Want to be friends?"

"Uh, sure." I say with a shrug...I don't remember people being this...open about wanting to be friends.
