Climbing out of my moms car I start towards the school and a few students stop to look at me.
Pulling my hood up more I duck my head and walk faster, at least the wheels on my tank don't squeak no more.
Sitting in first class I watched as other students trickle in from my back seat in the corner. I watched Ryan come in with Nicole and their little group of people.
The whole class was in there now, except for one person and the tardy bell was about to ring. Suddenly the door is being opened more and Amber walks in.
My heart skips a beat as her eyes scan the room, but they easily brush over me. She's only know me as Darth Vader or Jack, not Jackson.
When she takes her seat I let go of the breath I didn't even know I was holding. The first hour went by fast and then it was second followed by third.
In third hour I sat in the back corner like all classes and waited for our teacher to enter our classroom like every other classmate.
An unknown middle aged man walked through the door way "my name is Mr. Garfield. I will be your substitute today. I don't care what you do just don't bother me."
After he made his announcement all kids pulled out their phones (me included.) Putting in one headphone I listened to music, leaving one out so I could hear.
My phone vibrated in my phone and I looked down.
Are you at school today? ~A
She must still be trying to find out if I go to this school or not.
Yes ma'am.
Don't ma'am me... What class do you have right now. ~A
Third hour.
That's not what I meant~A
"I need to take attendance really quick so if you guys could give me your attention for a second and then leave me alone that's be great." Garfield stopped me from texting back.

"Ryan"-here
"Nicole"-here

"Nicolas"-absent
"Jessica"-here
"Erin"-absent
"Mason"-sick
"Isaiah"-here
"Michael"-here
"Isabella"-here
"and last but not least, Jackson."
My breath hitched and I forgot how to breath for a second. I could see Ambers head snap up at the sound of my name and now she was scanning the room waiting for someone to say here.
"Jackson?" The substitute repeated again.
"Here." My voice cracked and was weak so I repeated "here."
Ambers eyes snapped to me and her eyes widened before going back to her phone, I felt mine vibrate in my hands before I quickly looked down. When I went back up I guess that glance at my phone confirmed who I was.
FUCK.
