The Elements (*DISCONTINUED*)

Training Wheels

The next day passed by rather slowly. The clock on the wall taunting us with it's ticking and tocking. Both Ronnie and I were pretty excited to go with Dean to the training camp which made the day seem to pass by so unbelievably slow.

We had to do group work in science today. Dean made his way over to Ronnie and I and handed us some letters. "Give this to your parents. Pretend the school sent them."

Ronnie looked at them and gasped," Wow these look so real, but do you think they'll fall for it?"

" Good question. In case those don't work, I phoned them to tell them about it. They thought I was the parent teacher coordinator, so I think it'll work." He said taking a seat next to us.

While working on some questions from my paper, I noticed Mr.Riley staring at me. He was in his early 30's and wasn't bad looking at all, but he's a teacher so its kind of weird to call him 'cute'. His chiseled jaw line molded perfectly with his athletic build and semi-messy brown hair.

He was staring at me with a look of curiosity, even Ronnie caught on and started teasing me about it.

" Someone's got a little crush on you I see! " She whispered wiggling her eyebrows at me.

I elbowed her in the guts and she fell off her chair "That's not true and he's old!" I protested crossing my arms.

She responded by getting up and rubbing her stomach. " Ouch, I think you just killed Yoongi Jr. "

I glanced at Dean and saw him glaring at Mr. Riley. He looked like he was analyzing him. I was gonna ask him about it but the bell rang and he left. He was so mysterious. I felt intrigues and wondered what else there is to know about him.

A few hours later, we started walking down the busy hallway to reach our spot. When we finally got there, Ronnie and I recalled all of the week's activities. It was all so overwhelming.

"Do you wanna like... See what else we could do?" I asked Ronnie

She was deep in her thoughts. I got scared for a second. She suddenly turned to the door and said, "Someone's here. We need to leave now!" She picked up both of our stuff and ran up the stairs. She looked genuinely startled, and this was pretty rare for Ronnie of all people.

I followed her but not before I glanced back. Maybe it was stupid, but for curiosity's sake I couldn't help it.Though, in the corner I spotted the silhouette of a man. It was difficult to get a good look at him, considering he turned to me when I accidentally bumped into the vending machine. I booked it up the stairs to catch up with Ronnie. But not before I picked up the bag of Ruffles that fell out of the machine. Look, it was free chips okay. Who the hell passes that up? Yeh, I've been hanging out with Ronnie too much.

It was the last class of the day and no one had seen Dean anytime after lunch which was strange. I also couldn't get today's events out of my head. Who was that Person?

When hell-
I mean school was over, we were picked up by Mrs.Lynn, which was Ronnie's mom. I usually just call her Mama Lynn because she's just that cooland I'm also very close to her.

"So girls, how was your day?" She asked. Mrs.Lynn treats me like her daughter. She's basically my second mother.

"It was fine mother." Ronnie blankly stated.

"So I heard you have a trip this weekend! I want you girls to be safe and check in with me or your mother Adrian."

"Of course Mama Lynn " I responded. Her phone then rang.

Mrs.Lynn picked up her phone and went on about business or whatever was happening at the hospital she worked. That's when I noticed Ronnie's younger brother Hunter was in the car. I turned to him and started choking from excessive laughter. He had his middle finger up in Ronnie's face.
