The Beginning of Forever [2]

But the Game...

Two ~ But the Game...

-------------------------------------

"Hello! I'm here to drop off Seth Clearwater and Embry Call's lunch." I smiled sweetly at the reception woman in the front office of the reservation's school. She had long, beautiful, black hair cascading down past her shoulder blades. As I spoke, she looked up from the array of papers in front of her, a slightly confused look gracing her features as she took in my appearance. I guess they don't get many pale white people dropping lunches off in these parts.

"Welcome. They should be in the library right now for study hall. I can call them after this class, or you can drop it off to them now." She instructed, glancing at the schedule laid out in front of her.

"I can bring it to them now. Thank you for your help. Have a nice day!" I grinned, turning on my heel, walking out the door I just entered.

I walked down a long hallway towards a grouping of signs. They pointed to the lunch room, closest bathroom and library. Exactly what I needed. I meandered down the hallway, past rows and rows of lockers. When I walked by open classrooms, I nosily peaked inside, wondering who was learning and what they were learning. Sadly I didn't recognize anyone by the time I made it to the library at the end of the hall.

I pried open the door as silently as I could. Peaking inside, I noticed a teacher sitting at a table in the front of the room. A few rows away from him sat Seth, Quil and Emrby. They looked like they were trying pretty hard to stay focused, but they kept distracting one another. Quil reached up and pulled on Embry's ear for seemingly no reason.

"What was that for?" Em angrily whispered, a look of pure annoyance on his face. It appeared he had history strewn out in front of him, his least favorite subject.

"I felt like pulling your ear." Quick stated like it was the most obvious this ever. As he chuckled to himself over his actions, he locked eyes with me. They quickly grew wide with surprise. He gestured towards my spot with a tilt of his head. Seth and Embry quickly peaked over their shoulders to see what all the fuss was about. Both of their faces grew wide with grins. It was adorable.

I took this as my cue to approach the teacher. He was a man, probably around thirty-five. He looked like he was trying to act much stricter than he was in reality.

I approached the desk, plastering a sweet smile on my face. I walked up to the small table and stood there waiting to catch his attention. The man was avidly grading what looked like science tests. It took him a while to aknowledge my presence, but once he did, his eyes looked like they were about to fall out of his head. It shouldn't make me uncomfortable, I'm two-thousand years old for gods sake, but the thought that this grown man found my eighteen-year-old body attractive made me squirm.

"Well hello. What can I help you with?" He beamed at me. Shuffling some things around in front of him before locking his fingers together and setting them on the table.
