So, this is another one of my wonderful stories and I hope you guy swill be able to read it :)
Okay, so, this story is about children, and they don't grow up until the middle or end of the story, and later on you'll see why ;)
Disclaimer: dude, seriously, I do not own this
Everyone knows. They read my Rubber Ducky note, which is against the rules, and now everyone knows my secret.
"You wet the bed! Ha! Bed wetter!" Isabelle, the meanie of the Institute, teased me. The rest of the kids joined her, pointing at me and calling me a bed wetter. I looked down at my shoes in shame, whishing I could move, but I was frozen. Every time someone teased me, I always took it like a woman –even if I was a girl– and made sure they got all of the teasing out of their system.
"That's enough!" yelled the history teacher, Maryse, and came over to help me. She was the best teacher I'd ever had.
"Are you okay? I'm sorry about Izzy's behavior, but she just can't control herself, even when we punish her." Maryse explained, and by the "they", she meant the Clave. The Clave was the place that ran the Institute, a private school for orphaned little girls. They gave you the best education, never made you go with strange families like in foster homes, and if you were really good, they gave you cookies!
"I'm fine." I answered.
"Why were they laughing at you? Did you accidentally toot again?" Maryse asked. I had farted on accident once, but all girls did it, right?
"No. I told the Rubber Ducky my secret, and they stole it from her." I answered, remembering when I had entered the Secret Room, which I had all the girls crowding around the Ducky and giggling.
"Those bi– bad girls!" she exclaimed. Maryse always stuttered like that, but I always thought it was because she's mad, and she just can't get all of her words out. Maybe it was a disease, like zombieitis.
"Clary, I'm going to tell you a secret, and you can't tell anyone about it, not even the Rubber Ducky." She said, looking at me very seriously.
"Can I tell Simon?" thinking about the little girl I had found on the street when I was sneaking out of the dorms to go play on the playground. She had asked if she could sleep with me because the Clave had said they ran out of dorms, so she had to sleep on the street. I had felt bad and let her stay with me ever since. She was my only friend in this whole place, and I was always grateful to have a best friend like Simon. I had asked her why she had such a strange name, and she had replied that her parents had made a mistake. She didn't really look like a girl either, but what else could she be?
"Who's Simon?" Maryse asked.
"Oh, she's just, uh, my, um, DOLLY!" I yelled out, finding the perfect lie. Simon had made me swear not to tell anyone that she was living with me. I didn't know why, but she didn't want anyone to know, and I didn't want to upset her.
"Well, I suppose you may, but no one else. We are the New York Institute, right? Well, there is going to be another institute visiting us from the Idris Institute." She said.
I blinked, not sure what she was talking about. What the heck was an Idris? And why was it coming here? Couldn't it go to the Space Institute? I'm sure that would be much more fun.
"And boys are coming." She added, raising one of her eyebrows. I made my "ew" face, because I could never do that, which is another reason the girls teased me. And what was a boy? Was it a kind of dolly? I sure hope so! I've been making a lot of dresses for Simon, but she never wore them. She always says that she prefers "jeans and T-shirts". I tried getting some materials for jeans, but the teacher said we were only allowed to wear silk and satin, not "jeans".
"Aren't you excited?" she asked, looking disappointed.
"Of course I am! I've been making a lot of dresses for Simon, but she won't wear them. Now the new dollies can wear them! I better go make more!" I exclaimed, turning and running to my room. I couldn't wait to tell Simon!
So, what did you guys think? I can't explain everything right now because I have to type this really fast before I go to the movies so if you have any questions, then just ask me in a review or pm me.
