Be mine Valentine - Horror

Chapter 3 - Scrambled or Sunny side up?

Two months had passed since I left the Orphanage and the cuts on my face were now light scars and you could barley see them! I never told Mum and Dad about what had happened and I think I never will. During those two months we moved to California for one of Rouge’s Archeology digs.  

It was my first day of school and I was really nervous, two days ago when I had been out getting my uniform fitted I was excited but at the moment I didn’t want to leave my bedroom, I had everything I needed in there, there was no need to go anywhere! My room was amazing! It had a double bed, a desk with a lamp and art books, yes Rouge made sure I would never run out of paper.

“Valentine are you ready yet it’s time to go?” Billy called from down stairs.

Amelia my servant came into the room holding my uniform. 

“One-second, I need to get changed” I yelled back. Amelia walked over to my wardrobe and pulled out a corset. I lifted my arms and she wrapped it around my top. The corset is dark blue and has straps over the shoulders, as part of the uniform I had to wear a white long sleeved blouse underneath it. She pulled on the strings hard and I lost my breathe.

I had only worn it once.

“Could you make it a little less... Oh I don’t know tight?” I asked letting go the rest of the air in my lungs. 

“Yes, miss, sorry miss” She whispered.

She loosened it and I caught some air. Oh thank goodness I thought I was going to suffocate. 

Once that was over and my skirt was on, I put my shoes on and collected my books. I made my way down the stairs.

“Coming!” I said as I jumped the last few steps.

Rouge was wearing a beautiful purple dress made of silk. She had an umbrella in one hand and Billy’s hand in the other. Billy whispered something in her ear which made her giggle, then he picked her picked her up firefighter style out to the car. She screamed and giggled loudly making me laugh. They are such a cute couple! Their always sneaking around like teenagers trying to hide from their parents.  

We arrived at the school “Saint Mary’s School for Girls.”

I can’t breathe, I’m so scared. I had never been to school before and I was afraid I was going to embarrass myself. 

“OK, we’ll walk you to the office get you your time table and then we will set off, we would stay and show you around but we have a schedule of our own to attend to.” Rouge said to me while opening the door and giving Billy a look.

I just nodded not wanting to know what that meant and hopped out of the car.

I was sitting in the waiting room in the office while Rouge and Billy were getting my time table. They then handed it to me before giving me a hug and leaving me behind with the principle.

“I hope you enjoy it here Valentine I really do” She said to me with a stern look.

“Thank you” I managed to say.

“What do you have first?” 

I looked at my time table,

“Science, in room 195.”

“Ah this way” She said walking fast towards the exit.

“Class we have a new student so please make her welcome.” Mrs. Vartebidian my Science teacher said. 

“Valentine there is a spare seat in the back next to Miss Riley.” 

I shuffled my way to the empty seat at the back. I took my seat and looked to my right. I was sitting next to a window. It was summer and all the trees had green leaves, birds chirped and flew around playfully. 

The feeling of being watched overcame me and I turned to see a curly blonde staring at me with daggers. I wondered what I could have done to make her look at me like that, then I realized she wasn’t looking at me she was looking outside. I then turned back to where I was looking before and saw a group of boys coming towards the window of the class. There were about five of them and they were holding bags in their hands. They stopped a couple of feet away from me, put down the bags and took cartons of eggs out. My eyes grew big as the first egg hit the window. The girls started shrieking some with fear some excitement. Out of the corner of my eye I saw the blonde chick stand up and leave the room. A couple seconds later she was on the other side of the window and yelling at one of the boys. He was handsome, his dark brown hair was shaggy and his fringe covered his eyes. He just stood there looking at the ground while the girl had a fit at him and his friends looking at all the girls inside.  

Mrs. Vartebidian called the principle and the five boys and girl were called to the office.
