Today is Monday and I have school. Luckily though I'm out on Friday because of teacher development or something.
"Wake up Scarlett you have school"
But until then I have to suffer through school."Ugh"
"Come on Scar, we go through this everyday"
"That's cause I'm exhausted"
"You literally slept all weekend"
"That's what depression does to you"
She walked over to me and ripped the covers off.
"Avery!!"
"Get up!" She said and walked out the door. Ughhh I don't feel like going and dealing with my shadow aka Luna.
I got up and got dressed and went out to the kitchen.
"I'm skipping breakfast, don't try and talk me out of it"They all gave me a disappointed look but I'm used to those kinds of looks. "Does Luna have to keep following me around school?"
"Yes, until Jamie and I think your ready to be on your own she'll be going with you"
Ughhh. I rolled my eyes and stood by the door. They finished up and we drove to school.
I walk into the building and Luna was right behind me. I have to stop by the guidance counselors office everyday to check in as if I don't have enough therapists already. Also "That counselor is so creepy, she's constantly touching me and saying weird things" Damn it, I said that out loud. Luna looked at me concerned. "Really?"
"I didn't mean to say that out loud. I do that sometimes when I'm deep in thought, sorry" I just want her to drop it because I don't feel like dealing with a whole lot of drama this year.
"If she's doing that Scarlett you need to tell me"I just did, though it was accidental.
"It's fine. Wait out here it shouldn't take that long"
"Ok, call for me if you need anything"
"Ok"
I walk into the office and her eyes immediately light up. But not in a regular way, I don't know how to describe it but it felt like she was undressing me with her eyes. I wanna say I'm just paranoid but she's just too touchy-feely.
"Hi Ms. Soyer"
"Hi Scarlett take a seat" She said smiling and looking me up and down.
"Can you stop looking at me like that"
"Like what" She said smiling.
"Never mind"
"So how are you today?"
"Fine"
"Do you have a boyfriend Scarlett?"
That came out of nowhere. Why is she asking me about Matt? I got a bad feeling in my stomach.
"Yeah..."
"Ok"
She stands up and walks over to me. I feel like I should yell right now but I can't muster up the courage, I was paralyzed.
"Are you sexually active?" She says smiling. She said it so quietly and I could feel her hot breath on my face. Get up. Get up. Why can't I move??
She squats down and puts her hand on my thigh a little too far up. This is definitely wrong. I feel my heart start to speed up and I try to move but she holds me in place.
"What the hell are you doing??" I say scared.
"How does Matt do it? Like this?" She says as she slides her hand closer to the center or my pants. She starts rubbing me and breathing in my ear. After about 10 seconds of this the bell rings and I've never been so happy to go to class.
"We'll continue this tomorrow" She says smiling. She rubs her hand all the way up to my chest then walks back to her desk. I get up and walk out the office.
