Falling for Ambition

Taking Charge - Part 25

I walked into school with my head lifted up, something I've never done before.

People gave me weird glances, but I just smiled, making my way down the halls.

I then spotted Meredith by her locker with her guard dogs.

If she dares to even talk to me.

She better not even dare.

And if she even does-

"What's up mom jea-"

"Shut up Meredith!" I say walking by, slamming her locker shut on her fake nails.

"OWW! YOU'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THIS YOU LITTLE BRAT!" She squealed but I just walked away with a smirk on my face.

I saw Ethan and Grayson in the hallway and waved.

Their faces were full of shock at what I had done.

I headed to my class and the whole room filled with whispers.

I sat down in an empty desk and played with my hair.

A girl behind me tapped me on my back and gave me a note.

Her face was pale, as if she had seen a ghost.

I gave her a confused look and read the note.

"Umm, who's 'CD'?" I asked the girl.

"Can't tell." She said.

I turned around in my seat, facing the board.

Mrs. Roberts started class but my mind kept going back to the note.

Who's name initials are CD?

And who would want to meet up with me randomly?

Why couldn't they just come up to me and ask?

I started to look around the class and match initials.

None.

Maybe Meredith?

But her initials are MM.

Turns out she didn't even show up to class.

Maybe it was one of her guard dogs.

CAM!

But would she really?

She always acts strange around me.

Maybe thats why she sent the note.

The bell rang and I didn't even pay attention to anything the teacher said.

I was too busy focusing on who sent me the note.

I got up and asked a random girl on the way out if we had any homework but she shook her head no.
