ClearWater Academy Prologue
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Newsies.
A/N: my first fic! Please review!!
Everyone says senior year in highschool is supposed to be one of the best years of your life. And I was all set to enjoy my last year of highschool when my parents dropped the bomb on me.
They were sending me to boarding school.
And not just any boarding school - ClearWater Academy in California. They might as well be sending me to Antarctica! California is on the total opposite coast as Brooklyn!
They say it's for my own good. They say it's because I fell into the wrong crowd. My mom thinks my friends influenced me to do all the "bad" things I do. But the fact is I corrupted them. Most of my friends had never even touched a cigarette or got into fights before I showed them. But being friends with me sure changed them! They also say it's to keep me out of trouble
Yeah. Like that will ever happen.
I'm Spot Conlon for Christ's sake. Just because you send me away does not mean I'll stay out of trouble. I'm the guy who always has just under the limit of suspensions needed for expulsion. Mostly for doing things like fighting, cutting class, getting caught smoking, or showing up visibly drunk to class. I'm the guy who spends everyday after school in detention. I spend more time at home, suspended, then I do at school!
But my parents wouldn't budge. I begged. I pleaded. But nothing worked. They had made up their minds. I was going to ClearWater Academy whether I liked it or not.
- Two weeks later -
They had to literally drag me kicking and screaming onto that plane. I, of course, sulked the entire time. Even after we pulled up to the school.
It was a campus full of old brick buildings. The biggest one was in the center - the actually school. The four other buildings were the dorms. One for freshman, one for sophomores, one for juniors and one for seniors.
As we got out of the car, a older woman with bright orange hair greeted us. She said her name was Medda Larkson. The principal. I knew, considering my record, I would be spending a lot of time in her office and she would grow to hate me. But hey, that was life!
She gave me my room number and the list of my roommates. Jack Kelly, Michael Myers, Anthony Higgins, Trey Parker, and David Jacobs. They were already moved in since they had all be here since freshman year.
As I was walking toward Brown Hall, the senior dorms, I kept thinking to myself "10 months. Only 10 more months till graduation"
I was not looking forward to meeting my roommates at all.
A/N: yea!! The prologue is done! Finally! I probably did like five rewrites before this one sine none of them came out how I wanted them too. But I like this one. Next chapter- We meet the roommates! I've written half of the next chapter so far, so don't expect an update tomorrow! Hopefully by Thursday I'll have it up!
Well I hope you like it and please review!!
