I stormed off, the sounds of laughter still going on outside. I entered the school building, deciding what should I do.

Where do I go? I should've just headed home, skipping school would've been better then being here. I'm going to be the laughing stock of the school.

My looked around biting my lip, maybe the guidance councilor will help? She is suppose to be there for the students when they need it, right?

I looked at the clock hanging inside, I'm pretty early. Debating whether or not I should go to the councilor, I decided to give it a try.

I walked straight, her office should be close, I looked from side to side to make sure I didn't past it. I spotted the nurse's office, it should be probably close.

"What if this is a bad idea?" I whispered to myself, I stood in front of her office taking a deep breath. With a shaking hand, I knocked on the door. I exhaled, "come in!", she said. I opened the door walking in nervously.

The smile on her face quickly disappeared, I knew this was going to be a bad idea.

"What brings you here?" She said raising an eyebrow looking at me, I took a seat looking at anything but her.

"Come on kid, I don't have all day" she said leaning back in her chair, I looked at her name tag. Ms. Adams, Inhaled deeply again.

"I wanted to know how I can get scholarships for college" I said, I mentally smacked myself, that wasn't the first thing I wanted to talk about.

Ms. Adams looked rather constipated, she's probably holding in a laugh. I looked down at my fingers. I gripped my knees trying to not be so affected.

"You're joking right? You're going to take your SATs next year. I doubt you'll even get a scholarship offer with your grades, Jason you're not the best student. No college will offer you a scholarship with your grades. Also with your social standing no college will take you since you're not in any club, now economically you aren't to go to college because of how expensive it is." Ms. Adams said, I clenched my fists as hard as I could.

"Wow that was so helpful" I said sarcastically getting up from the chair. I walked out her office, suddenly I heard her laughing. I rolled my eyes, somehow I know I'll find a way. I looked for a clock, the hallways filled up with students.

"You missed it, he actually thought.."

I started to walk faster towards my locker to get my morning books, today shouldn't be so bad. I mean it's not like people will remember what happened in the morning.

"People like him are always so gullible." Another student said, I mentally snakes myself. I can't believe I fell for their trick. I clenched my jaw, as I put in my locker combination. I grabbed my morning books making sure I had my schedule right.

"He's right there, I can't believe he's still here"

I shook my head heading to the stairwell, going to geometry class.

You're so stupid Jason, how could you let yourself fall for those tricks.

But it seemed like she really genuinely wanted to be my friend.

God your so stupid

I shook my head again, calling myself stupid isn't helping my case right now. I don't need to go to the crazy house, now do I.

I looked at how my teacher showed the work for the question in the homework. My answer was way off from his. I took a look at my work and his. This seems too be completely wrong. I mentally sighed, raising my hand.
