"Sebastian, could you read from paragraph 12?"
Humiliation.
A jolt of fear.
Resulting in nearly choking on his own saliva.
Sebastian thought all of the teachers at McKinley had been well informed of his...situation.
The hairs on the back of his neck raised on end as all of the students looked at him.
The lanky brunette shifted in his seat uncomfortably-truly a rare sight seen far in between.
Long sentences floated around, blurring and flipping.
"In 1466, it het ge of furten, Louarbo saw apprantieb ot teh artit Anbrua bi Ion onw sa Verrihio, wose kork sop saw "on fo teh fimesit ni Forene." Het-"
Sebastian sighed in frustration.
He tore fingers through his hair and across his chin.
"Sebastian?"
Laughter.
"Deepest apologies Ms. Fornell," he purred, "My throat is feeling abit sore."
A look of exasperation came across her face.
It flitted away.
It was not the first time the former Warbler shirked out of something like this.
"Very well, why don't you go see the nurse while Kurt reads paragraph 13?"
Sebastian felt a surge of jealousy.
Transfering to this school was bad enough.
Having to live with the walking talking Porta Rican pride float was on an whole other level.
He stood quietly, grabbing his bag and history book.
Sebastian plucked the hall pass out of the teachers hand and sauntered out.
They all thought he was lazy.
Thought Sebastian didn't give a shit about his studies and purposely gave the teachers a hard time.
They simply didn't know.
Or the information got lost in the mist.
But one thing was for sure, he would never, ever tell anyone he was dyslexic.
The utter humiliation was bad enough pre-Warbler.
The 16 year old would not go through that again.
He could survive 9 months at McKinley.
...Couldn't he?
All Sebastian had to do was smile and be an ass.
Maybe telling the teachers sooner or later seemed like a wise choice.
After all, someone would eventually notice.
That it took a France educated private school student 30 minutes to read a few paragraphs.
He crumpled the hall pass in a near by trash can.
Lima, Ohio could go to hell for all he cared.
