Jester: Daughter Of Harley Quinn And The Joker

chapter 8

I grabbed my books and stood up with a sigh. I turned to face the slut. she was idly twirling her hair around her finger as she blew a bubble from her gum. I rolled my eyes as she just looked me up and down. I then felt a pain on my cheek.

"don't roll your eyes at me" she growled

I nodded as if I was in pain and intimidated. like fuck would I be intimidated by they shit bitch.

"sorry" I whispered quietly trying to hide the eye roll

"so you're new? what's your name?" she asked with a smug look on her face

"Annabelle" I replied looking her straight in the eye which I saw a spark of surprise in. I also saw everything she wanted. what she saw. her whole life. I could see it all, "Annabelle Napier"

"hmm I've heard that name before" she wondered, "you seem like a nerd but we will give you a chance. come sit with us at lunch and maybe we will let you be a part of our group"

I held back the urge to barf as I just gave a single nod and brushed past her to class.

I hate popular kids. they are so conceited and preppy. not to mention sluts. walking into the class room I was the only one there apart from another boy with his head buried in his book seeming oblivious to my current presence in the room.

"TT there is a free seat over there" he said pointing at a chair to right behind him not even looking at me.

I rolled my eyes and made my way over to the seat.

"thanks..." I tried to make conversation

"TT you're welcome" he replied not even caring

"TT" I copied him a smirk playing on my face, "the names Annabelle"

"TT I didn't ask" he muttered

"neither did I" I retorted grinning. I noticed a bruise on his wrist and his knuckles were red and bruised slightly, "so you fight?"

he sat bolt up right. it was then I noticed his piercing forest green eyes and how his black hair stuck up in all directions. a frown was set on his face but softened slightly.

"no I just fight with my brothers" he replied turning back to his book

"you have brothers?" I asked suddenly interested

"yes" he replied quickly and a bit harshly, "my apologies I didn't get much sleep last night"

"apology accepted," I smiled as he looked at me

"my name is Damian" he held his hand out

I took it with my best smile

"pleasure to make your acquaintance." I let go of his hand and looked away blushing lightly, "want to hang out sometime?"

I look back to see he was sitting there smirking.

"okay, after school?" he asked

"sounds great" I replied smiling

everyone started to come inside the classroom. I noticed all the girls go over to damian he sent me a look that seemed to say 'help me' which I just smirked at and shook my head making him frown. soon after the teacher came in and began the lesson saving damian from the hoards of sirens, actually no that would require them being pretty, no more like hags.

timeskip

it was lunch and I luckily found every one sitting at the table in the corner.

"where were you guys?" I almost yelled at them

"around" they all muttered looking down

a familiar stench then hit me.

"you didn't?" I prayed

"he deserved it" they all defended at once

"where is he?" I asked, "who even is he?"

"chemistry lab closet and Dr Clarke" they replied heads down

"firstly this synchronised speaking is freaking me out, secondly I'm going to the chemistry lab." I ordered, "bring the gas"

he grabbed his bag which I heard multiple clinks of canisters in. he tossed me the bag with a knowing smirk. I smirked back and walked towards the doors. I was suddenly stopped by the girl from earlier and her cronies.

"where are you going?" she asked, "we are supposed to eat lunch together"

"i have some business I will be back soon promise" I shrugged

"we are coming too" she stood hands on hips and her cronies surrounded me making it difficult to control nightshade.

"don't do this ella" I warned her, "move out of the way"

she seemed to waver but soon recovered and folded her arms over her chest.

"only you ella the rest stay here and even then you stay outside" I caved knowing this was the best I could do

she grinned and nodded and moved out of the way. this will be more difficult than fun. Damn.
