a/n Emma above- as we have previously covered she is played by Cara Delevigne, the attitude in this gif just matches her character so well I know she's an antagonist but she's such a flawless one.

     Schedules, yet another thing I had to worry about. Just when I thought I was getting somewhere with solving Snow White's Story, a whole new set of variables had come up. I didn't know anything about how the human education system worked. 

     I had thrown my schedule that I had received during my first day at Rosemont to the bottom of my backpack, not thinking I'd be needing it. But now I was forced to retrieve it, unfolding the crumpled paper, and searching for the classroom I was supposed to be in right now.

      The letters before me swam before my vision, making it difficult to process the information as I tried to push Queen Seraphina and the human she had possessed only moments earlier. 

     And Pierce. Pierce continues to get in my way. How am I supposed to explain what I had done? He was bound to ask questions or investigate by himself at the very least. What if he told someone? My skin crawled and beads of sweat worked their way onto my forehead as the stress of the situation began to overwhelm me. 

     But I couldn't afford to think like that because now my mother was at stake. I couldn't lose her after all that's happened to me. She's all I have left. 

     I reached the door of a classroom labeled Science3, matching the paper in my hand. With my schedule in one hand and the tardy slip I had in my other (which I found in the pocket of the school principal; who was now lying unconscious at the front of the school), I knocked on the door and pushed it open.

     The classroom that met my eyes was eerily quiet except for the droning of the teacher at the head of the classroom. At the sound of the door clicking open, she stopped talking, turning around to glare at me so harshly, I nearly ran to hand her the tardy slip and leaped into my seat, which was thankfully right next to Bella, and far away from Pierce and Emma, who were seated by each other at the front of the classroom.

       The class was mostly filled with useless information about new protocol and rules under a new school district and administration which I quickly stopped listening to, drowning in cold sweats as I stared at the clock, dreading the moments leading up to cheerleading practice at the end of the day. 

      High school truly sucks ass.
