My life as a runt

Chapter 6

Jenna's POV:

It turned out that the club didn't shut my mind up for too long. Sure it was quiet while I was there, drinking and dancing my night away, but now I couldn't silence it as I got ready for school.  Why was it that I was so quick to get angry? And why did I run to the forest of all places? Why didn't I just run to the park or the mall like I usually did?

All of these thoughts were clouding my mind as I got ready for school.  I put on some artfully ripped black skinny jeans, a red crop top and some black vans before heading downstairs for breakfast. The smell of eggs and sausage links was slightly overwhelming,  but I didn't mind. I just wanted some of those sausages. How weird that I could smell what was for breakfast all the way up here? Sure,  I sometimes was able to smell it, but never before had I smelt it so clearly. Was the breakfast smell more pungent than normal, or was my sense of smell suddenly more acute?

I shook my head to rid myself of those thoughts before I continued heading down for breakfast. This was weird, but whatever. Maybe I was just coming down with something. Yeah, that must be it. I was getting sick. There was no other way to explain these weird happenings.  Well either that or my hangover is making me delusional, but that is not very plausible sice I did not drink all that much last night and the alcohol has never affected me that way before.

"Have fun in school girls" my mom waved happily as she dropped Lillian and I off. 

"Bye mom" Lillian said as she hopped out of the car and skipped over to her friends.  She certainly was in a good mood today  I on the contrary was my typical zombie like self.  I was always like a zombie when I did not get enough sleep and thanks to the club and the fact that school starts ridiculously early, I was running on about 3 or 4 hours of sleep.  Definitely not enough for a teenager like me.

That was when I decided that class could wait.  First I needed to sleep a bit more.  With that in mind I decided to ditch class and instead find a place I could take a nap without leaving school grounds becuase it was still early so teachers would be patrolling the doors. 

I soon came across an empty classroom in the uncrowded art hallway.  It seemed that this classroom used to be used as a sewing class or something, back when such a class existed because instead of desks there were large working tables and I found some colorful blankets and pillows in the storage room adjoining the classroom.  'this is as good as it's going to get' I though to myself as I grabbed a couple blankets and pillows and set them on the working table and went to sleep.

"Shit!" I exclaimed as I woke up.  The loud bell that signalled the end or the beginning of class woke me up before I desired.  I looked at my phone and saw that I had already missed my first two classes and the bell that woke me up signalled the beginning of my third class.  I really did not want to go to class, but i knew i had to otherwise the teachers would call my mom since i haven't gone to a single class today.

I got to my Home Economics class just as the teacher finished explaining a project about making a three course meal or something.  I simply sat down an was slowly zoning out when I heard Jason say he wanted to be my partner for this project.

"What! No!" I exclaimed, "I do not want to be partners with Jason the prick!".  I really did not want to be Jason's partner for the project he was a huge jackass. 'But he's a hot jackass' my mind reminded me.  Yes, I agreed with myself, he is a hot jackass, but still a jackass.
