Chapter7

Josey's POV

I walked into school fifteen minutes later, early as always. School didn't start for another forty-five minutes, so I walked to the library to finish up my homework. I know. I know straight A Gothic chicks are rare, but I wanted out of this hell hole.

The only way I could do that is college. The only way I can afford college is to get a scholarship, and to get that I need good grades. So here I am in the library doing homework. I found a seat on a couch near coffee shop, which is in the library. I go to a big school with many students, and only a few of those are considered smart. Each one of them fights for the best scholarships. Right now I am glad to say I am in the top ten.

As far as friends, I only have Trish and she doesn’t even go to school. No one likes a Goth except a Goth. No one likes a straight A Goth, except a straight A Goth, and as I said those are rare. I am not a teacher's pet; because lets face it no body likes them, even the teachers.

Fifteen minutes till School starts and I walk to class. I don't have a locker, because I can't afford it. To many students not enough equipment so they make you pay for it. I take a seat half way down the row, near the window, which was opened just a crack. Here I sit, all alone, waiting on class to begin.

The Teacher walks in and gets settled in at his desk. I glance up just in time to see him pull a flask from his jacket pocket, and spike his coffee. I shook my head and looked back out the window. I can't say I blame him, if I had to deal with teenagers all day I would need a little help also. Soon after that the first bell rang and the students started to file in.

We don't have assigned seats for this class, so of course the students separated into their groups. This left me in a peace of my own design. Last bell rang and the teacher called attendance. When that was done he gave out the school news paper, and told us what we were to expect for today. He told us about a fire drill that was to take place either today or tomorrow and how we were getting exchange students today. Our school was getting six new students all seniors from a local school in exchange for six of ours. After that the girls erupted into giggles and the teacher gave up trying to say anything else. He took a drink of coffee as the bell rang for end of class.

I got up and walked to my next class, which was AP English. I walked through the door and nearly fell over. Sitting at the back of class was four of the most gorgeous people I had ever seen. Dressed all in black were four of the new kids. I checked my emotions, making sure I had not let them show, and walked to a seat near the window. I noticed as I walked that their eyes were following my every move. Feeling a little self-conscious I sat down and pulled my hair to cover my face.

The bell rang meaning class has started and the teacher called attendance. When she was finished she asked the new students to introduce themselves. What was surprising was that when she asked they all immediately stood at attention.

"Brandon Roberts, Ma'am" he said then sat down.

"London McDowell, Ma'am" she said then sat down.

"Nina Cook" she said and sat down. She stood back up and said "Sorry, Ma'am" and sat again.

"Leo Luna, Ma'am" he said, with a voice that caused my heart to jump, and then he sat down.

The teacher thanked them and then turned to the rest of class and said

"Okay will these students please stand up: Todd Morgan, Lila Jenkins, Derek Morris, and Josephine Moon."

We all stood and I felt eyes staring at me. It felt like a whole was being drilled in the back of my head. I kept my eyes down cast and waited on the teacher to continue.

“I am grouping each of you with one of the new students, for the rest of the time they are here. Your first assignment is to show them around. Okay so it is: Todd and Nina, Lila and Brandon, Derek and London, Josephine and Leo. Okay now that is done split up into your groups, because we have a group lesson today." the teacher said

I took a deep breath and went to introduce myself, knowing this was going to be a long year.
