Attempting to hop the now closed gate of the campus, he turns to me, and in shortened breaths says, " I believe we are completely out of luck on this one." I look around, to see an opening and luckily I found one. "Let's hop the bushes instead. It'll be easy." I begin to walk over to the bushes and as he follows, he's humming a song. I make my way over to the bushes, examining the shortest one. I step back a few feet, and begin to run towards the bush. I make my way across, and he does the same. Afterwards, we say our goodbyes and part ways.••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The next morning, I faintly hear my alarm clock making the piercing beeping sound, so I groan, and I turn to shut it off, only to find it had actually been ringing for the past hour. I was late. Again. Shit, this is going to be tough to have an excuse for. I make my way out of bed and begin to run for my life and get ready as fast as possible. After grabbing my coffee, I was out the door.

"MISS THORNE!!" I hear my professsor yell as I enter the door to his classroom. I automatically know what's about to happen. I cough, "yes sir?" I he storms over to me and begins to scold me. It's the same thing as always, but one new piece of information caught my attention. "Miss Thorne, I'm going to have to start tutoring you." I automatically turn my attention to the professor and beg him to reconsider. "I can tutor her!" A familiar voice blurts. I whip my head around to see Sebastian. The professor looks at him as well, and his eyes dart to the ground as if he's making a decision. "Alright. Everyday after my class ends there will be a one hour tutoring period where Sebastian catches you up on your laziness, Miss Thorne. If I hear for a minute that you've been skipping the sessions there will be huge consequences." I nod my head, and thank him. I go to sit near Sebastian, as the professor explains further about how these sessions will start tomorrow. I roll my eyes, and sit down. This is going to be a long day. I pull out my phone, and go to the app I downloaded the other day. As in scrolling through names, something catches my eye. "Lacey Turner: 2:30 P.M." After that small bit of information about the Turner girl, it says "Gone". I become completely confused, and I show Sebastian. "O-oh. Maybe she's going to a different school now?" He rubs the back of his neck again, almost as if he's uneasy about the situation. I shrug my shoulders, and begin scrolling again. Maybe, or maybe not. If I can get through today, spring break will be soon enough.

Realizing that the next class that had to be taken was across the campus, which was extremely inconvenient towards me, as soon as the bell rang I sprinted out of the door. There was no possible way that I could be late again. Running, well, sprinting, I knocked myself into some sending both of us flying into the ground. The odd thing was, she looked extremely similar to Lacey Turner. As the girl looked around frantically, we met eyes, and she immediately got up. I stood up, and looking behind me I realized she was completely gone. "Shit!" I thought aloud, knowing that I was about to be late to class... again.
