30 Days In Rome

Chapter 10

If tear drops could be bottled

They'd be swimming pools filled by models

Told a tight dress is what makes you a whore

If I love you was a promise

Would you break it if you're honest?

I sang a Billie Ellish song as I flipped through my English notebook that was placed on my crossed legs.

We were currently in the common room. Anabelle was seated across me. We reviewed our notes for the day. I was determined to change and keep my grades up. It's what Rainer would have wanted.

She insisted we stayed in front of the fire place. The weather was a little bit cold but it wasn't anything I couldn't handle.

Even in the rain I would go for a party wearing a crop top and shorts so I was practically used to it.

"How do you not feel the weather?" Anabelle confusedly asked

"A hoe never gets cold darling" I winked at her

She shook her head

"You're something else, Ruby"

"So I've been told"

"I'm glad Turner didn't punish you. It got me scared"

"Yeah, me too"

Mr. Henderson stepped into the room. It was as if the atmosphere changed completely.

It was then that I realized that Anabelle wasn't lying when she said more than half of the female population swoon over him.

It was as if the air seized when he came in. All the girls did their best attempts to look good.

Some fluffed their hair, some adjusted their shirts, others straightened their clothes. Even Mary sat up straighter than usual

"Good evening ladies" he greeted everyone

"Good evening sir" we replied

"What's popping Mr. H?" Anabelle asked him when he walked over to our side

Girl glared at us in envy. I noticed he and Anabelle were a bit close. I would have thought deeper of it but I remembered she was gay.

"I'm good Ann, you?"

"I'm good too, sir"

"Hello Ruby" His eyes rested on me

My cheeks heated up at the way he said my name. It rolled over his tongue smoothly.

"Hi sir" I replied

"Hello Mr. Henderson" a high pitched voice said

Cindy suddenly appeared next to him. I almost opened my mouth in shock. She literally appeared out of nowhere. Where did she come from?

"Cindy" John acknowledged her dryly

Two buttons of her shirt were popped open, her cleavage was evident.

Why are girls desperate?

"I suggest you dress properly" John said

Me and Anabelle giggled

Cindy's face turned red in embarrassment.

"Excuse me" John said then walked away

She glared at us before walking away as well.

Funny enough, I was the queen bee of my old school. There's always that one girl in every school and I was that girl in my old school.

A buzz from my bag caught my attention. I brought out my phone and checked the message.
