The fun we could've had

Chapter 1

Today is like all other days. Except I am starting a new school, in a new neighborhood, with a new family. I was fostered by the Evans 5 days ago today. But it won't last, they never do. I never know where I'm gonna sleep or if I will even have a bed. Some families keep me for a a few weeks, some a few months, but nothing longer. Nothing... permanent.

Now, this is gonna sound fucked up but, can you blame me? Most places I go are...  The place I got now is just perfect for me. I got the rich white people area this time. The family just wants to look like they care, at least that is what it seems like. We have already taken more family photos then I will ever need in my lifetime, but it makes them happy so I smile and say "cheese!".

 The new school looks like a palace. Too big for my taste, but a guy could really get used to this. As I walked up the steps I was too infatuated with looking everywhere at once I tripped and rolled down the steps. Like 30 kids noticed and no one helped me. Typical.

 "Excuse me young man, but shouldn't you be on your way to class like all the other students? Wait a moment..." He looked me up and down, "You must be Jake Evans, correct?"

"How do you know my name?" This just got weird. This random person shouldn't know anything about me. I'm new!

I looked down to see what he saw, and I didn't see a problem. I mean, my shirt isn't tucked in and my tie isn't pulled all the way up to my neck, but I'm wearing the uniform so who cares?

"I am the principal here at Lancaster Academy. Tuck in your shirt and follow me please." Well, shit.

Walking in the halls of a school fit for a queen sucked ass. I felt like I was trespassing and someone was going to notice how obvious it is that I don't belong and kick me out. When I got to my class there was a sign on the door that stated: the class was not to be disturbed. But I needed to go to class so... I knocked.

A woman in her mid 30s opened the door and was already scowling when she said, "You clearly cannot read Mr..."Jeez, this chick looks like she has to poop."Evans ma'am. Jake Evans." 

I smirked and held out my hand as I introduced myself. "Well Jake Evans. In my class students who are tardy are not to disturb the learning of the students who value their education. You can go to the library or wait outside. I don't care." I can already tell I am not going to like it here.

 "I'm not aware if you knew this but, I am new to this school and Mr. Braun told me that I was allowed to step into class." I flashed her my best smile and waited.

Why do he gotta spell it like B-R-A-U-N,what was wrong with B-R-O-W-N."hmm, then by all means, come on in." She gave a smile colder then the ice age and moved out of the way so I could come in.

"Class please welcome our new student, Mr. Jake Evans. Have any seat that is open." 

As I started to walk to an empty seat somewhere when I noticed everyone was looking at me. I started to look for all possible seats that would determine where I sit until further notice and saw 3 desks open. They were the surrounding seats to a kid who looked like he would eat me for lunch. I slowed my pace not wanting to accept the inevitable, as I sat down in the set next to this huge guy, he looked over at me and was still looking at me after the the teacher had resumed her lecture.

 
Being the idiot I am I decided to ask in a very reasonable tone why he kept looking at me."I don't seem to remember taping a STARE AT ME sign to my forehead. We got a problem?" 

I really need to stop picking fights with people who could flick me dead . As I was getting ready for a blow to the face, I heard laughing instead. Which was surprising because I wouldn't have pictured him as the smiling type."I'm Liam." Was all he said before looking out the window like I wasn't even there.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Once the bell rang no one moved. I was confused so I didn't move either. Then Liam got up and walked out. Once he was gone everyone else got up and left like kids normally do.

"Hi, I'm Derek craftsman. I am going to show you around school. We have 2 more periods before lunch , you can sit with me and my friends if you want. Let me see your schedule." I handed him my schedule and he light up like a goddamn Christmas tree.

"We have all classes but one together. Gym. I don't have a PE class. Long story."

"Okay. So uhm... why didn't anyone get up when the bell rang?" I asked trying to be casual about it.

"Oh... well once, and only once- the bell rang and everyone got up, and when Liam went to get up he slammed everyone in front of him onto the floor. Since then no one leaves until he does." Derek looked down as he told the story, then was fine after a few seconds.

As I left whatever class I was just in, Derek started to tell me more about this school. "Okay so before we get into much, what do you notice about the students here?"

"They are all wearing a uniform?" Fuck if I knew. 

"Yes, but no. This school is divided into two. The boys and the girls have separate buildings. Boys get this half, the girls the other. You will notice that there is a wall in the middle of the school and there are two entrances. Never go into the girls side. And don't even think about going there. One more small tiny detail. About Liam...?"

"Yeah?" I was curious about him and was immediately interested by the way Derek suddenly changed his mood.

"I don't want to alarm you but I'm pretty sure you are in danger."

"Why? How? I haven't done anything." I was a little jumpy but wasn't going to show it.

"Well, Liam almost never smiles and when he does it for close friends or when he is hurting someone, and when he smiled at you... idk it wasn't like those times, it was more like he was looking at you like you were something to eat."

I'm fine. Everything is fine. I wonder how long I am going to believe that.
