School Sucks - Part 2

Shelby's P.O.V

It was around 8:15 am and I needed to get up to take Lilac to school. I have about 15 minutes to get ready. It's not the end of the world. I love her to bits and I only have to get up this early every 4 week days. Me, Graser, Will and Liam all rotate with who takes her each morning. I don't know how she does it because we all struggle to get up at this hour. Well ​except H but I don't care.

I got dressed and walk downstairs and see her sitting where she is every morning. At the island in the kitchen, in her school uniform, watching YouTube. Of course. She looks up and smiles before grabbing her bag and shouting bye to Graser who is probably still asleep.

We got in the car and drove down to the school. It is November so it's still a little dark but you can see all the primary school kids starting their hike to school.

She was dead quiet but that's how she is. She not a very chatty person, unless she's with Will. She is just so connected with him.

I'm not jealous, I have a very close mother/daughter relationship with her.

Graser is very much her father no matter what how crazy he is, and she can do his signature laugh.

Liam is her go to person for help if neither me or Graser can help. But he's also told me that she's seen him as her comfort and a person to complain to if she has a problem with Graser and myself. Which I think is good. 

But Will is like her best friend. She does have lots of school friends but not like Will. They just have connected so well​ ever since she joined our family. Even when she was a toddler she could pick out her best friend from all the others in a room.

I looked over at her and she's texting on her phone. "Who you texting?" I questioned.

She replied with a whole list of people but the most I could pick out were Liam, a few friends from school and Will of course.

"So how popular is my little girl?" I asked her.

"Most people say I'm popular but to be honest I just see it as I'm good friends with everyone. But I do sit with the popular ones from time to time. But I also talk to the quiet ones." She replied.

"Really? You're quite quiet at home. Is everything ok? No one's being mean?"

"One, if anyone is mean to me or anyone else I can shut them up. And two, nobody tries it with me. Ever. Or they're dead." She commented smirking to herself.

I just nodded as we pulled up to the drop-off. She got out and said bye and was immediately surrounded but a ton of girls and even a few boys. She still waved and a few of her friends also did as I turned the car around smiling at them all.

I drove home to Graser still asleep and Will raiding my fridge and cupboards. Liam and Will live across the street in the house opposite us so they come in whenever they need something and vice versa.

"Morning, whatcha looking for?"

"Oh, good morning, and sugar? Sorry we ran out. I'm so tired and need coffee. Big UHC in 10 minutes and I need some energy." He replied.

"Cabinet above the sink. It's you and Liam's anniversary of when you started dating today is it not?"

He nodded and looked at me confused probably as to how I know this.

"Lil has been excited about this day for ages and asked me to tell you, you guys need to be over here for when she gets home, she's got a surprise."

He just replied with an ok and said bye.

I recorded and did other stuff around the house. Lily doesn't get home until around half 4 on Thursdays and she takes the bus home with friends so we don't need to worry about picking her up.

Lilac's P.O.V

I may talk to a lot of people during the day but I still pay attention in class. I just went from class to class and I sat with some of the more popular guys today. If you're getting the impression they're popular because they're mean to people or they're the pretty girls of the class like in every highschool movie and book, then you're wrong. Some people do fight from time to time but we're all nice enough.

Finished my 7th period and headed with a few friends for the bus. They kept asking me to come out shopping with them but I said I had to be home for important family stuff today.

I got off the bus and went inside."I'm home!" I shouted and they were all in the kitchen so I dumped my bag on the stairs and walked in, ripping off my tie.

I came in and snuck up behind Will and wrapped my tie around him head.

They all laughed and I sat up on the island counter top and cleared my throat."Thank you all for coming this evening. I'm sorry I am a little behind schedule, but someone from my class thought it would be a good idea to start flirting with me on the bus even when I was trying to get off. Anyhow​, we are here to celebrate the anniversary of WilLaim becoming canon. So I will be hosting a fun night for the two best uncles in the world!"

Liam and Will looked at each other and then to me."Uncles?" They both asked together.

"Shelby and Graser are like parents to me, but you guys are like the uncles I never got to have and I want you guys to see me as a family member. Will you let me be your niece? Please?"

They came and hugged me, one on either side."We both love you so much. Of course." Liam said joyfully.

My smile was so wide my cheeks started to hurt."Then let me sort you guys on an anniversary date you'll never forget."
