" I can't believe you made me come this early" I groaned sitting on a desk as Alaric got set up for his first class of the day.

"Yeah well blame your dad for that one, he wanted me to make sure you got here on time" uncle Alaric said laughing a bit.

"I don't know why... I mean I only missed one day this whole year" I said looking at him.

"Because of a hangover" He points out making me bite my lip.

"Point taken.... Anyways, what should I call you when you're in teacher mode?" I asked making him look up at me.

"Mr. Saltzman" he says before handing me my bag.

"Okay" I said taking my bag and standing up.

"Now go and do things a normal average kid would do" he says wiggling his eyebrows.

"Ditch and go get wasted, okay if you insist Mr Saltzman" I joked walking out of the room.

"I meant socialize!" He called out laughing a bit. I rolled my eyes before pausing and walking right back in the room to take my seat.

"I forgot I have you first period" I said making him chuckle a bit. he walked out of the room to grab a few things from the teaching lounge while kids began to pile into the room.

"Hey you, Jenna told me what happened. Are you okay?" Elena asked taking her seat infront of me.

"I'm okay, just worried about my mom" I said giving her a sad small smile.

"If you need anything or even want to just come over and hang out, don't  hesitate to call me" she says making me nod. A very tired and distress looking Bonnie came into the room and got to her seat just as Alaric, I mean Mr. Saltzman, walked into the room.

"Good morning everyone" he began causing me to zone out. What? I already read his lesson plans and did the majority of the work already so I am good. I slowly began to feel like shit as the school day went on to the point where I just wanted to go home. At lunch, I walked to Rick's room to tell him that I was going to go home for the day.

"Hey you" Alaric says getting out his lunch.

"Hey I'm going to head home, I feel crappy and don't think I could make it through the day" I said causing him to frown.

"Alright just be careful okay?" he says making me nod. I walked out of the room and bumped into Jeremy by accident.

"Sorry Jeremy" I said as he helped steady me.

"its okay but are you okay? you feel hot" Jeremy says frowning.

"Yeah I'm actually heading home now" I said giving him a small smile.

"Okay and if you need anything..." he said trailing off.

"I know, call you" I said with a small smile before heading out to see my dad leaning against the car.

"hey kiddo"

"hey"

"how you feeling?" my dad asked as he began to drive us home.
