Got Winx?

22 - Plans

'Beep, beep, beep'

C'mon Jade! Please pick up...

'Click'

"This is Jade, What?"

The grumpy voice actually sounds comforting today.

"It's me, Cat, well... Actually Flora."

There is silence. "How are things?" She says gently.

"Well..." I update her on what happened and the plan that involved her removing my tattoo.

"Do you... Do you think you could do it?"

"Hmm... I'll see. Possibly."

A door shuts in the background on her side. "Oh hey Beck".

She directs her voice back to me and puts on the 'mean girl' act.

"Leave me alone or I'll cut you up with my scissors!" And the line goes dead.

I smile. I know she just threatened me (although I know it was fake.) atleast if she is with Beck that means she is back on earth away from the Trix.

"Flora! Miss Faragonda wants to see you in her office" Bloom calls from the hallway.

"Coming!" I reply getting up.
The other girls are still a bit wary of me but they are getting better. Aisha on the other hand has me worried. Whenever I'm in the same room as her I can feel her glaring at me or she just exits the room. It makes me nervous and I'm worried that she will try and get payback on me or just never forgive me. Gosh I really mucked up...

Thinking about these things is making me sad. I can't be like this. I lift my head up and make my way to the headmistresses office for my meeting.

"How are you doing Flora?"

Miss F is sitting at her desk and as usual, gestures to a seat opposite her. She is accompanied by Griselda, and it feels as if not even miss F trusts me fully. It's kinda like she needs another teacher guarding her. I don't know, but if that is true then ouch. It hurts.
Alothugh honestly I can't blame them.

"Alright. I guess... What did you ask me her for?"

"Have you got hold of Jade yet?"

"Yes. She said she might be able to help. She had to go though"

"Yes that is good. And how have the girls been treating you?"

What a funny question, I thought. 

"Alright I guess."

"You guess?"

"Well they just need time to adjust I think... " I say trailing off.

"And?" She pushes.

I sigh, "I'm not so sure about Aisha. She still seems kinda hostile"

"Hmm yes. Maybe you just need to talk to her?" 

She suggests, but we both know very well that the chances of that working aren't likely.

"Maybe"

My fingers find a loose thread on the chair to nervously fiddle with. Possible scenarios start to flood my mind. If I talked to her would she attack me again? Would she listen? Would she leave? Would she forgive me? The last one is not very likely.

"What about Helia?" Miss Griselda asks in her usual harsh voice and I jump, I forgot that she was here.

"I don't know... maybe I could ask Jade about him? I don't really want to talk about him now though."

She nods and Miss F says okay.

I am released from the office to go to class. They told me I will need to catch up because I missed out on learning a lot.

I already know that I will not be doing any catching up today. Even before class begins my mind was wandering off. I don't remember a word of what Mr palladium was trying to teach us, and I even managed to completely phase out the names and whispers coming from my classmates. 

Stella, Musa and Bloom were in this class, but they were sitting at the other side of the room talking about the goss from the latest copy of TeenFairy Magazine. They didn't take much notice of me sitting at the back. The other girls were in transfiguration class.

"Flora?" 

"What?"  I say still thinking.

"I asked you a question." Mr Palladium's voice drones in.

"Yeah" My mouth mumbles as if I was sleep talking. I'm still staring into space.

The class erupts into giggles and I snap out of my daze.

"Wait what?" My eyes dash around the room flustered and confused, then it dawns on me and my cheeks turn burn red. This prompts the class to laugh even louder.

"Flora! Detention after class."

The class continues to laugh and I hear a snippet of my teacher muttering something. Something about how "She used to be such a good person before all this...".

Ouch again. Not him too! That stung. I suppose I need to get used to it, it is going to take ages to live down this bad reputation that has been spread about me.

I bury my face into the desk and tell my self not to cry, thankfully the class has been told to stop laughing. 

At this point in time it is so easy to give myself put downs, but I just need to tell myself that it will get better. I feel like I'm in an impossible mess now, and it might take months, a year, several years even, but one day It will be okay again.

I just need to start working hard to get out of this mess and re-prove myself.
