Here are a few POVs POV~ Lance Lance sat watching Pat and Benjie casually flirt. He felt slightly nauseated by the display. Could they be any more pathetic? He sighed. Bitter feelings poison others happiness. He grimaced. He was miserable but he didn't have to spoil Benjie's happiness. The bell rang. Slowly he gathered his bag and made his way to the Assembly, not looking either caring if the lovey dovey couple followed.
POV~ Melody Melody wondered at Rya's change in mood. She was okay until Penny left with Eric. What was going on there? She frowned. Something wasn't right. The bell rang for Assembly. Gathering her thoughts she made her way to the hall and almost walked into Lance. Pulling back, she frowned at the worn look in his face. He looked tired. She felt her heart ache a little. Remembering their own little incident she brushed the feeling off. Scowling at him, she walked by him. He did not deserve her pity.
POV~ Jeff Jeff watched the little act with Lance and Melody. It was so funny. He felt himself laughing. It was ridiculous. How stupid they were. They really do love each other if they inflict that much pain without saying anything. He frowned. Waxing these poetic lines was not the way he was. This act was becoming too real.
POV~ Penny Penny had talked to Eric for the entire walk to the Assembly. He left before it started due to having to attend to an issue in the administration building regarding his registration. She frowned. That was her when she transferred in all those years ago. Her mind wandered from the first day to Toby to the group to that creepy guy Gregory. He really did creep her out, she had to admit. Lost in thought she almost didn't see the pair of eyes staring intently at her. Feeling the gaze she looked directly at the haunted eyes of Toby. Penny wanted to scream. He looked so empty. Had she done this? Trying to communicate her feelings with her eyes she looked pleadingly at him to forgive her. She watched as his gaze shifted from forlorn to furious. Lowering her eyes, she felt tears threaten to fall. What had she done to him?
POV~ Josh Josh mingled in with the group of students. It was almost repulsive to be among these lesser beings. But for appearances sake he had to be one of them. He looked over at the group. So much division. At least he didn't have that to deal with. Rya walked by. 'Okay.' He thought. 'Maybe I'll have to if Rya continues being her fine self.' She had a deep set scowl on her face. He wanted to laugh. She got too involved. It was a hazard of the job they did. He saw Jeff approach her and her reaction was priceless. She kneed him in the stomach. But no one else saw. He'd made an illusion to hide them. Josh smirked. He watched her walk away with no remorse on her beautiful face. Things were going to be really interesting.
Pov- Rya Rya stood in the hall, angry. Jeff was ticking her off badly. And the new guy. And Josh. Everyone was ticking her off. She was beyond shocked when no one had seen her outburst. But she'd felt the glamour covering up their spat. Only one person had that ability. The mist boy. Josh. She felt herself slightly warm to the boy for that. He deserved some sort of thanks for saving both she and Jeff from a tremendous amount of trouble. Sighing, she wondered just how to do so.
Pov- Benjie Benjie thought about he and Pat and their conversations. He was warming up to her a lot more than he was expecting. He laughed at his in advertent pun. Lance looked at him slowly possibly gauging his mental state, which only made him laugh harder. He was happy. So genuinely happy. His merry look contrasted so much with the dark, gloomy brooding look of Lance. He was smiling. All because of what he was admitting to himself in his mind. He had a crush. A crush on Pat. Benjie had a crush on Pat.
Pov- Pat Pat stood close to the doors. If anything went bad, she wanted to be the first one out. The Group was volatile. She frowned. One wrong move and everything could go south. She looked around, slowly gauging the others. Melody, sulky. Penny, sulky. Toby, broken. Ouch. Josh, mixed emotions. Rya, mixed emotions. Jeff, confused. Lance, sulky. Benjie, ecstatic. Noting the look on his face with some confusion she wondered. Why was he smiling so goofily? Looking at him again, she felt her stomach drop. It was the lovesickness look. She cringed as he glanced at her, sending a perky wave in her direction. Did he know? Did he know that she had a crush on him? She waved back gingerly, feeling her stomach drop lower and lower. If he knows...what now?
Chapter 25 Miss Gale stood at the podium, her eyes searching the crowd. She observed the new entrants and the returning students. The first day was crucial. It was the day when these new children needed to understand the rules of the school. With a small nod to the man next to her, she prepared to speak. The speakers in the hall flared to life, the distortion making all cringe. Silently berating herself for not checking up on them earlier, she waited until both the speakers and students were quiet. "Good Morning to you students both returning and new. I'd like to welcome you all back to school where I hope we will be productive this term and rightly so. New responsibilities are given to you each passing year." She paused, ensuring she had captured their attention. When she noted that she indeed had, she continued. "Before we get into the thick of things, let us first conduct our Assembly proceedings." The Hall became quiet and she heard them in unison, praying, singing and finally pledging. Her heart swelled with emotions. This was the first time their assembly went of without a hitch. Could this first day be a mirror of what was to come? Gregory stood watching Miss Gale feeling immense respect for her. She seemed like she hadn't changed her usual mindset. Always helping when she could but other than that presenting herself as stern and unyielding. But he could see right through it. She wasn't at all like that. He kept watching from his corner until he heard her introducing him to the Assembly. "Students" Miss Gale announced, her voice catching even Gregory off guard. "Please join me in welcoming our new member of staff Mr Gregory Stans." He walks over to the podium and looks at the students he would eventually come into close contact with. Smiling, Miss Gale directs him to the podium to speak. Trying to politely decline, he sees in her eyes that he was not leaving the stage without saying a word. Resigning himself to his fate, he walks over and angles the microphone. "Hello to you all. As Miss Gale said before I am Gregory Stans." He paused as the children applauded. "I hope my time here will be beneficial for us all. And just to make it clear as to what I do, I'm science lab technician so mainly the science student will know me. That's about it I guess. Anyway enjoy your first day." He walked away feeling very proud. No snide comments or anything while he'd spoke. He deserved an award. Miss Gale continued speaking as Gregory returned to his corner. Slowly his eyes scanned the crowd. He had some admirers he could see. He kept scanning until his eyes fell on Penelope. Her eyes focused on Miss Gale. Her face held so many emotions but the dominant one was admiration. He felt a predatory grin stretch his mouth. 'I want her to look at me that way. But soon Penelope. Very very soon.' The Assembly dismissed shortly after Gregory had spoken. The children were updated on clubs and class locations. When all had been said, they dispersed out of the Hall and into their respective classrooms. Due to it being the first day, the schedules were slightly skewed and the new children suffered the more for it. Late to classes and sometimes very lost, the bumbled and fumbled through their first day, which extended to the rest of their first week. As the last bell rang for dismissal on the Friday evening, everyone was glad to leave for home. Hopefully the weekend would be better?
Chapter- 26~ Part 1 Rya felt nervous. Very nervous. What was she doing? Was she insane? She kept thinking about Josh and how sweet he'd been to her as well as a welcome distraction to her over the summer. And he'd been a place of refuge from Penny and Eric. She scowled, thinking about them. How Eric looked at Penny like she'd hung the moon and stars. It made her sick and insanely jealous for reasons unknown to her. Trying not to dwell on the thought, she returned to the situation at hand. She was really doing this. 'I really wish someone could stop me right now before I make an absolute fool of myself,' she thought. Just as she thought it, Penny and Eric passed, Penny smiling politely but still withdrawn while Eric gesticulated wildly. He said something that made them both dissolve into giggles. Feeling her heart drop she watched as Eric gripped Penny's hand and dragged her out of her line of sight. She saw the dark look on the new teacher's face and the completely broken look on Toby's. It hardened her resolve. She had to do this. Josh strode out of the classroom and straight to the new teacher. They talked a bit before he walked directly toward her. It was now or never. "Hi Josh" she said, trying to keep her voice from shaking. "How about we take go somewhere before we go home? Consider it a date of sorts if you'd like." Josh smirked. "Well...since you asked so nicely, okay then. Where are we going?" Smiling, she whispered, "Its a secret." Holding his hand firmly in hers she led him to her car. 'Now or never,' she reminded herself. 'Now or never.'
