Yes, I deleted "All's Fair In Love and War". Sorry to the readers if there were any, but I had no inspiration for it anymore. Again, sorry, but I hope you guys enjoy this one. I will most defiantly continue this one, kay?
"Thanks for waiting at the stop sign, Aria!" Kori wheezed. Kori was athletic, tall, and beatiful. She ranked number one in gym class and number two in art class. She was cool if you got to know her, but if you didn't know her at all, she was shy. Her parents had been together for twenty years and Aria's mother was pretty jealous.
"Sorry. I was too anxious. I mean, this is the Orientation we've all been waiting for," Aria said, squealing a bit. Other than being perfect on the outside, only Kori and Allison knew she was far from perfect on the inside. First off, Aria thought she was ugly and she defiantly didn't believe in the word "perfect". Her parents had gotten divorced at age five and her dad found a younger woman whose name was Chris. Her mother wasn't that great of a mom because she sometimes got too drunk and abused Aria. Aria covered this up by putting on make up as best as she could, which was very good.
"True. If it weren't for Kori, we'd done be there. So let's go, you two!" Allison exclaimed, pointing forward to the gates of McCauley in the distance. The three girls ran for the beautiful silver gates and laughed when they reached it. Linking their arms together, the best friends walked forward toward the gymnasium for the orientation.
Once inside and seated, the head-master stepped up to the microphone and tapped it gently.
"Excuse me. Please note that all feet should be on the floor at all times," he said in a soothingly calm voice. "Okay, thank you. I'm Head-Master Briggs." Aria didn't hear the last part of his long lecture for her eyes had wondered to the staff table... And had landed on a young, black-haired man who looked to be at least twenty to tweny-three. Luckily, Kori had wanted to sit in the front so Aria could see that the man had to most gorgeous silver eyes she had ever seen. His black bangs were pushed to the side, covering his left eye. He was hot, but he was at the staff table, meaning he had to be a teacher. Isn't that, like, against the law, or something? Aria shifted her focus back to Briggs, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw Mr. Hot-Guy staring at her.
The Orientation ended minutes later and Aria, Kori, and Allison stood in the corner, holding punches, and leaning against the wall. Kori and Allison were talking so fast, Aria failed to understand a word, and was happy that the hot teacher was coming their way. When he stopped in front of Aria, her heart stopped beating.
"I'm Rylan Anderson, Mr. Anderson to you," Mr. Anderson said, almost coldly saying "you". Aria was taken aback, but brushed the coldness off. It might have been an accident.
"I'm Aria May, nice to meet you Mr. Anderson," Aria said, politiley offering her hand. He stared at it for a minute before sticking his hand in his pockets.
"So you coming to school here, or those two drag you to this thing?" He asked. He still had coldness in his voice and Aria flinched.
"I want to come here, but I havn't talked to my mom yet," Aria replied quietly and gently, hoping he would stop being cold.
"Let me guess. Your a mega-Miss-Goody-Two-Shoes and your mom wants you to go to a different school?" Rylan said. This time, each and every word was drenched with venom. Aria was plain out hurt now.
"Mr. Anderson, are you an inspector?" Aria snapped. She winced. This would be the first time in awhile that she's rude to an adult other than her mother.
"Obviously not, why?" he asked through his teeth.
"Then why are you asking me all these questions?" she spat. Kori and Allison had stopped talking and threw their heads back, laughing loudly. Rylan's face was filled with anger when he walked off to greet another student. Allison and Kori high-fived Aria, still laughing.
Five minutes later, Rylan interrupted them again. Kori and Allison stopped breathing for two point four seconds, Aria just narrowed her eyes.
"I'm taking three girls on a tour. Unfortanetly, Briggs assigned me to you three. Keep up, listen, be silent, only talk if I call on you," Rylan scoffed before walking away. The three best friends looked at each other before Aria grabbed their hands and pulled them after Rylan.
Yes, if Aria got in McCauley Art School, it'd be an interesting year.
