Life compelled

58~Family History

I woke up in my dorm and got dressed for class. Last night I went to the store and dyed my hair back to its original color which was dark brown. Soon everything started to feel normal again

I found myself apologizing to everyone, every time I saw them

It wasn't until I saw how annoyed they were getting that got me to stop

Grayson offered to help me study for upcoming test since we had most of the same class and I hadn't been there in a while

"Ok next question, who was the famous painter that created Café Terrace at Night?" "Bob Ross"

"Ha Ha" he laughed sarcastically. "Vincent Van Gogh. But nice try"

His phone starts to ring and the smile on his face fades "oh no. Here answer this" he hands it to me

I look at the phone "Brooke? Who's Brooke" "this girl I had a sort of thing with. She got kinda...clingy. In a really creepy way"

"Well that's not my problem" I toss it back

"Please" he throws it back "no" I throws it back again

He quickly answers the phone and tossed it again

I sigh "hello?"

"Hi is Grayson there?" "Actually He's Uh" "you know what nevermind. I'll call back later" she hangs up

"See. Creepy"

"Hey what are you doing later?" He asked as I packed up my bag. "The Salvatore Boarding House with Brie. It was just turned into a school for kids with magic abilities and Brie got a part time job helping out there. Hope is one of them"

"Hope? Like Klaus' daughter Hope?"

"Yeah. I told Brie I would go there with her and she said it might be good for us to meet, even though I don't know what she looks like. You're free to come if you want"

He snakes his head a bit "I don't think so. After what happened I don't think she really wants to see me"

I walk towards him "the only way you two will become friends again is if you talk to each other. Now come on before we're late"

~~~~~~~~

"Kevin stop tying to set Timmy on fire" I hear Brie say as I walk up to her

"Everything going well?" I laugh. "What do you think?"

She turns and sees Grayson walking towards us from parking the car "what's he doing here?"

"You two need to talk to each other ok? And you've waited long enough" she lets out a sigh as Grayson stands next to us

"So what's on the agenda?" She checks her clipboard in her hand

She looks like a full on mom

"Well I have to teach a magic class at five thirty" "wait you're gonna teach magic" I laugh. "Well sorta. I'm kinda the chaperone, ya know to make sure they don't kill each other" I nod signaling that I understood

"Oh and some idiot bailed on the art class so I kind of need you to fill in" "Brie we never said anything about-" "I know I know but please" "I don't even know anything about art? How am I supposed to teach it?" "Just get some paints and color something I don't know... they're kids" "yeah magic kids" "have fun"

Brie's POV

I walk around the classroom monitoring the kids

"You know you don't have to help me right?"
