The day passed painfully slow and began talking more to Morgan and suggested her coming around but Morgan wanted to think about it which wasn't the reaction Addy was expecting.
Addy has broken the news to Stacie how she had her phone taken away and Stacie hadn't seemed to care as long as she got it back.

As the last bell rang Addy slugged her way to Miss Holmes' room and knocked on her door and then opened the door.

"Addy come in!" Miss Holmes sung as she finished putting stuff away from her previous class.

"Can I have my phone back? Please." Addy asked walking just inside the door.
"Sure but just perch on a desk quickly I need to talk to you for a second." Miss Holmes comes and sits in front of where Addy sat.

"I looked at your maths work from today and it was... okay. For the class your not quite at the level I would expect." Miss Holmes says opening Addy maths book.

"It's been one lesson how can you tell?" Addy knew she wasn't great at maths but she could do it.

"The stuff we did in the lesson is stuff that I assume all of you should do easily. It was meant to be a easy lesson."

"I can do it I swear. I just need to take time to get it. I can."

"I enjoyed looking your drawings though. You are an incredible artist."

"Thanks." Addy mumbled looking down at her feet swinging back and forth. "The drawing helps me concentrate and remember the stuff."

"Okay. I will keep an eye on it for a couple of weeks but if it doesn't improve you may need a tutor. Maybe you could talk to your sister, Emily. She may be able to help. But don't stop doing the art in your book I enjoy looking at it. Your very talented." Before Addy could respond Stacie shoved the door open and stormed in.

"Haven't you looked at your phone recently? We need to go now." Stacie said to Addy.

"Well obviously, no." Addy replied.

"Yes Stacie you can come in. What would you like?" Miss Holmes said sarcastically.

"Sorry. Please can I take Addy. Now." Stacie replied with a small smile of apology.

"It's fine. Your phone Addy. Just remember what I said." Miss Holmes handed over Addy's phone.

"Thank you and I will." Addy said grabbing her phone and leaving following Stacie out the door.

" I don't understand the rush we waited for like ever with Beca." Addy was now struggling to keep up with Stacie's pace.

"What was Miss Holmes talk to you about?" Stacie asked trying not to freak Addy out yet.

"Just maths but..."

" Are you having trouble in maths again?" Stacie continued to tip toeing around the point.

"No... I'm fine... but..."

" You know cause we... I mean Emily can help you again."

"Stacie! Why are you in a rush?" Stacie didn't stop walking but she became silent before sighing.

"Mother is joining us this evening."  Stacie spoke in the way they were going to have to act this evening. And Addy sped up the pace.

"Shit."
