Trouble (Hijack)

Part 21

This is a chapter that introduces Snot and Sandy's relationship.

"Sandy!"

Sandy turned around to see Jack running up to her in the hallway.

He was huffing as he sprinted towards her, dodging people walking by. She almost laughed when he nearly knocked down a freshman's pile of books that she carried.

He finally reached her and she signed to him, "SLOW, ME NO GO."

Jack smiled and held out a piece of paper for her. She took it and gasped. It was her scholarship qualifications that she'd needed. She must have dropped it.

She held it to her chest and smiled at Jack, "THANK YOU!" She hugged him quickly as he panted.

"I figured you'd need that this weekend." He chuckled.

"ME CLUMSY, FORGET. THANK YOU." She signed again.

She put it in her bag quickly and then shouldered it to walk out with Jack. Now that Pitch and his friends had been suspended they no longer worried about getting hurt. Both Sandy and Jack pressed charges for harassment among other things and got their wish with the help of a lawyer that Jack's uncle Aster had known growing up. The guy was almost as ruthless as Aster himself and refused to let the guys off easy.

It was a celebratory day for Jack and Sandy and now they could finally roam the halls in peace. The only problem were that people who didn't quite know the whole story or who refused to believe Pitch was capable of that, still continued to spread lies and rumors guessing what had happened. So Sandy and Jack were still given mean glares by other students for getting their star athlete's kicked out.

But they could care less.

"So, any plans this weekend?" Jack smiled at her.

She shrugged and shook her head, then she smiled up at him, "YOU?"

He grinned, "I'm taking Hiccup out, we're gonna go catch that horror movie. He's a little nervous which makes me glad cause that means he'll just cuddle the whole time."

She narrowed her eyes and chuckled silently, "YOU MEAN, CLEVER."

He nodded, "I know."

She sighed and waved once she got to her car, "YOU FUN HAVE."

"I will." He nodded, leaning in to hug her, "Have a good weekend Sandy."

He walked away and she fumbled around her purse for her keys. She wrinkled her nose, wondering why on earth she chose to carry so many things with her. She sighed and finally got into her car and looked at the time. She would have shrieked if she actually could; she was running late.

She usually helped teach some Sign Language classes at the deaf school to help her look good on a resume when she finally applied for college. She loved working with people there, she always felt accepted. Sure she wasn't deaf or blind, but they still admired her for learning about their culture.

She pulled up to the gates of the school and waved to the usual guard. He let her in and she parked quickly, rushing to grab her bag with her lesson plans and schedule.

She'd forgotten to look at it today to see who she was tutoring. Because she could hear, they usually assigned people who could hear to her so they'd feel less intimidated.

She walked into the small lounge where she usually met with people and took out her schedule. She read the name; Sean Lout. She didn't know who he was so she figured he was new.

She was just getting out her books when she heard someone nearby clear their throat.

She glanced up and stared for a second. Before her stood a very intimidating-looking brunette with mean-looking brown eyes. He seriously had a face that almost had a perpetually permanent scowl. He was also very muscular and rough around the edges. However, Sandy didn't see any of that, because she recognized who he was right away.
