District Heights - Chapter 1 (Pretty Girl)
He sat slouched on a chair outside the princples office, his black hoodie over his head as he flicked his lighter on and off waiting for the principle to Invite him inside. 'Mr scott you may come In now', Mr. Carter said opening the door. Lucas slowly stood and walked in the room closing the door behind him. 'Mr. Scott please take a seat', he carelessly fell into the chair and leaned back. 'So what's this about Carter, you gonna expell me?'. Mr. Carter pulled off his glasses and looked at Lucas for a second, almost as If he was trying to read his mind. 'We have put this into serious consideration and we are transferring you'. Lucas laughed and pulled the hood from his head, 'Okay, transferring me to where?'. He sighed and opened his file cabinet , pulling out a grey folder with Lucas' name on the front. 'Here It says you are to enroll at District Heights academy'. He pulled himself up, 'No way. I'm not going to boarding school'. 'I'm afraid you have to choice In the matter'. He grabbed his bag and opened the office door, 'Screw you', he yelled before slamming the door behind him. Arriving back at his house, he forced open the front door, carelessly pushing it behind him and threw his bag across the floor. 'Mom', he yelled storming Into the kitchen. 'what the hell, boarding school?'. Karen sighed and placed her coffee mug in the sink, 'Lucas I don't know what else to do with you, I know what happened last year destroyed you. But It affected me too'. Lucas stared at her with anger, but mostly pain in his eyes. 'Where Is this place anyway?', he muttered through his teeth. 'District Heights Is In North Carolina, It's a prestigious school you're lucky you got accepted'. He shook his head and pulled away from her, 'Yeah......I'm real lucky'. 'Lucas.....', she shouted as he walked out slamming his hand against the wall.
He sat outside the school in the passenger seat of his mom's car, 'You're gonna like It here honey, It's not as bad as you think'. He looked up at her annoyed , 'I can't believe you took away my car'. She smiled and stroked his shoulder, 'You better get going, you don't wanna be late on your first day'. 'Oh no, I'd hate to dissapoint the rich kids', he said sarcastically as he climbed out of the car. 'I'll see you soon sweetheart', she waved driving away. He watched he car turn at the street and shook his head, as he walked Into the building. 'I'm Lucas Scott, transfer student', he said mannerless at the front desk. The woman was shocked at his rough appearance, he didn't look like the other students at the school. Mainly because they were stuck up rich kids, he was rich he just didn't care about It. 'Yes, we've been expecting you...... Lucas', she smiled but appeared to act cautious around him. 'Here's your room key, you're in 1908 thats on the second floor and the it's the third door along the hall. You can't miss It'. He grinned and snatched the key, 'Thanks', he muttered walking to the staircase. He pushed open the door and looked around the room, walking in he flung his bag and sat on the edge of the bed. He looked at the door when he heard a knock, 'It's open', he yelled pulling off his jacket. The door was pushed open, revealing a tall male with glasses and a blue shirt with a black tie. 'Mr. Scott, I have been sent here with your uniform', he held a black blazer, black trousers, a white shirt and an Indigo blue tie. Lucas stood up and was handed the clothes, he laughed, 'You're kidding me right?'. The man shook his head, 'Oh no I'm very serious, oh and these too....', he smiled handing him shiny black shoes. 'I have to wear these every day?', he asked placing them on his bed. 'Yes that's correct, and by the way I'm Mr. Taylor you're english teacher'. Lucas nodded and fell back on the bed.
The next morning, he walked down the hall to the front desk. 'Hey, I'm here for my class schedule'. The woman smiled, 'You look better today'. He looked confused, but then looked at the uniform he was wearing, 'Thanks', he smiled as she handed him his timetable. He walked into the dean's lounge and sat waiting for his meeting. He felt his blazer and sighed at how uncomfortable he was, and how ridiculous he felt. A beautiful brunnette girl walked in and sat directly across from him, she was wearing the same uniform only with a short, tight skirt. He smiled at her and tapped his chair, she looked up for a second then opened a pad she held on her lap. 'Hey', he said simply to get her attention. She glanced at him briefly and smiled, 'Hi'. 'what are you doing?', he asked leaning back in his chair. 'I'm waiting for the Dean to come out of his meeting, the same as you', she replied looking at the booklet infront of her. Lucas laughed, 'The Dean, he's supposed to be this real tight ass right?'. She raised her eyebrow and pulled the hair from her face, behind her ears. 'Yeah I hear that, but I don't really know him all that well.' She didn't look at him for long spaces of time, she briefly glanced and then looked back at the booklet she held infront of her. 'Well I'm new , this Is my first day and I don't really know my way around', he pointed out smiling at her. She suddenly closed her book, and crossed her legs. 'You really should get someone to show you around'. He nodded, as she folded her arms confidently. 'The tutor center's good for that kinda thing, trust me they're all saints in there'.
He was Intruiged by this girl, she appeared beautiful and totally aware of It, confident and stylish yet she did hold a certain element of mystery that seemed to hook him. He bruskly ran his finger across his lips, looking at her soft, gentle legs from her skirt downwards and the way she flicked her shiny brown hair around. She laughed, 'You know what's funny?', he looked up at her. 'What?'.
'You're checking me out right now, and It's totally obvious'. He laughed, 'Yeah.... I wasn't trying to be subtle'. She gave him a small grin, 'Okay......'. He pulled off his blazer and loosened his tie, 'So you gonna tell me you're name then?'. She looked up at him and shook her head, 'Why not?' he asked with his eyes practically glued to her body. 'Well, you're practially undressing me with you're eyes. You've kinda seen all of me, I just want something of mine to remain sacred.' He laughed and shook his head, 'Scared... you're name?'. She placed her book in her bag and stood up, 'You'll find out eventually, just not from me....'. Lucas nodded as she began walking away, 'Aren't you gonna see the dean?'. She turned around, 'I was just gonna ask him what he wanted for father's day. but I'll just ask him later'. Lucas smiled, 'Fathers day?.....'. The Dean opened his office door and smiled at Lucas, 'Come In son', he Invited as he gave his daughter a small wave. 'I see you met my daughter Brooke, she's a handful huh?'. Lucas smiled and looked at back at her, 'Brooke?....., he whispered smiling to himself.
