Spring Valley Academy - a not-so-normal life of the weird kids in school.

Chapter 8 - Nope. No photoshoots for me.

// Liana's POV \\

Liana clipped in her seatbelt as Colton started up the Limo and set off down the road. She rested her head on the back of the seat and let out a sigh of relief. Finally the school day had finished.
"How was school today?" Colton asked over his shoulder.
"Eh... there is a new kid who is in a lot of my classes" she replied.
"Oh really? What are they like?"
"Well he's called Donn and he has bright turquoise coloured hair" Liana explained.
"I think I have seen someone with hair like that in the town" he frowned. Liana wasn't surprised.
"Yeah he seemed pretty popular. Anyway, he didn't seem to want to hang with his friends so he kinda stayed with us... he's meeting us in the park later" Liana told him. Normally she told Colton where she was going but not her parents. They probably wouldn't let her go out.
"If I were you I wouldn't stay out too late because your mum will be home early" He explained. Liana rolled her eyes. It's not like she would actually notice she was gone. The two carried on in silence as they reached the drive and pulled up infront of the large house. Liana swung open the door and set her feet down on the hard gravel. She waved at Colton before rushing up the stairs and into her room. She sat down on her bed and relaxed slightly.
"Okay I have a few hours to do what I want" she smiled to herself. Then the realisation hit like a brick. Homework.

Liana groaned and threw her head back in frustration. She hated math more than anything in the world. Why was it so hard!? She stared up at the ceiling and let her mind wander.
"I wonder what was wrong with Matt..." She thought to herself. There was definitely something wrong but he clearly didn't want to share it on the bus. Liana kinda felt sorry for him. It would be pretty strange, moving in with someone from school.... But then there was Sapphire, who had one of her friends living with her. That would be pretty cool. And now there was Donn who seemed to want to be part of the group. Liana literally knew nothing about him. Other than the fact that he had bright green hair.... That would be pretty hard to miss.
PING!
Liana snapped back to realitly and glanced at her phone.

Hey Li, what time are we meeting?
Liana didn't really know so she made one up. Donn would either be early or late but it didn't matter..

Um... how about 8?
Liana checked the time. 5:59. Basically she another two hours so she ditched her homework and went downstairs to find some food. Half way down the large staircase, Liana felt as if her shoe was falling off so she looked down and saw that her laces were undone. As she bent down to do them back up again, she noticed that the marker pen hiding the designer label and come off slightly.
"Okay since when was that like that?" She asked herself. She would have to patch it up later and hope that no one saw it.
"Um Liana?" Colton called from down stairs. Liana headed down and into the kitchen. Colton was sat at the marble breakfast counter.
"Yeah?"
"Uh...Your mum is asking if you would do a photo shoot for a magazine this weekend..." Colton explained cautiously. He knew that Liana wouldn't want to, but obviously her mother had made him. She gave him a seriously? look and opened her mouth to complain.
"Before you dismiss the idea and go on a rant again, the shoot will be for a horse magazine" he told her with a little more hope. Liana stopped and prossesed this. Being in a horse magazine? That is every riders dream! She could be in it and if anyone found out, she could just say the company asked her to because of her gorgeous horse. But then she realised that if she did this, then her mum would convince her to do others...
"I actually considered it, unlike normal times, but I just can't" Liana said quietly. Colton sighed.
"And why not? No one in your school will actually read a horse magazine and recognise you" he told her.
"I know but I guess I just don't want to be famous. Well, I wouldn't mind being a professional horse rider... But that's different! Plus, if I do this one, then mum will try and make me do more" she explained. Colton stared at her before sighing again.
"Fine! Fine.. I'll tell your mother now" he mumbled. Liana smiled before grabbing an apple and heading out side.

Liana checked her phone for the time again. 7:40. She put it back in her pocket and left the stable, closing the door behind her.
"I've got to go now Chance. I'll see you later boy" she smiled as her stunning grey horse munched on his hay. She walked out of the barn and into the house again. She quickly scribbled on her shoes and brushed her hair before swapping her hoody for one that didn't smell of horses. She skipped back down the stairs and towards the front door.
"I'll be back soon!" She called into the house.
"Okay see ya" Colton called back. Liana stepped outside and began to walk briskly down the long drive way. The sky was beginning to become darker, with pinks and purples running through it. The air was becoming slightly damp and cold. All she had to do was make it to the park in time.

I'm so sorry it took me so long to write this boring filler chapter. I was enjoying the luxies of a holiday XD Anyway, I tried to make it more about Liana than horses... Trust us, we have many exciting things planned. Catch you next time!
