Switched Up

Chapter 6

mSang gets to spend some time with Axel in this chapter. To be honest, I read a book where Axel was such a dick and it made me so mad that I wasn't sure I could write this. But I have decompressed and I have put it behind me.

Hope you guys enjoy!
Sang's P.O.V.

    That night, I made dinner for Mother and Marie. Luckily, nothing happens except for Mother telling me that registration was tomorrow and Father would be coming back early in the morning to take Marie and I. It surprised me, because usually he could be gone for a week or more at a time.

    I don't question it though, I just clean up the kitchen and retreat to my room as quickly as possible. My stomach growls with hunger and I eat some of the crackers I snuck up the other day.

I check in with the boys before I decide to do some research on Ashley Waters so I know what to expect. I'm going to be Junior, so I look up what classes I can take and the rules of the school. ( A/N The boys are going to be Seniors and Sang should be as well but she isn't and that'll be explained later. Marie is 19 and should be out of school, which is part of the same explanation.)

    When I feel like I am prepared enough, I text the boys I'm going to bed and hide the phone, making sure it's on silent. I haven't taken it off silent, but it made me nervous thinking about Mother finding it.

     Sleep comes easily to me.

The next morning, I wake up early, but not because of a nightmare this time. I hear heavy footsteps from downstairs and know it's my Father returning home.

I stay in my bed, becoming nervous at the thought of going to the school today. I've never been in one and I don't know what to to expect.

    I just lay there until my Dad opens my door and I am grateful my phone is hidden.

      "Get ready. We're leaving in thirty," is all he says to me.

I pull myself out of the bed, my body full of dread.
I take time to figure out what I should wear, wanting to look somewhat decent today.

    I decide on a modest white blouse, blue skirt, and some sandals. I brush my hair out and try to make it look as good as possible.

   When I'm finished I text the boys telling them what I'm getting ready to do. They all wish me luck and to let them know when I'm done. I stick the phone in my bra and make sure I have my notebook and pen.

I go downstairs and it's just my Father who is down there. We wait in silence until Marie walks downstairs in a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. She looks at me in disgust but says nothing when we walk out the door.

The car ride is silent as well. When we pull up to Ashley Waters, the anxiety I have felt all day hits me at full force. "I'll wait in the car, you girls go in and get this done as quickly as possible," is all he says, not even looking at us.

We both get out of the car and Marie basically sprints to get away from me. I walk quickly, wanting to get this whole thing over with. I take in my surroundings as I walk quickly. The school is old and rundown.

When I enter the building, I immediately want to to turn back around. There are so many people here, I don't even know how my Father thinks this can be done quickly. I make my way through the crowded hallway, searching for the Juniors.

(A/N I'm making the regular classes she has minus the private lesson with Mr. Blackbourne senior classes and the teachers honestly don't care. I know they care in the actual book, but with everything else they allow to happen I feel like she should get the classes she wants easily.)
