Hey there~ Been a long time hasn't it? too long perhaps. This is the new chapter for The Mute I hope you enjoy it.


A new School

Great. Even is going to send me to a new school. Like that is going to help me. Whatever. I guess if I am going to that new torture place you call school I should sleep. I am going to eat something and go to sleep. Not that you care... you are just a book.

Night, Ienzo

I walked downstairs again and walked to the fridge, taking out a piece of bread and buttering it. I took a glass out of the cupboard at my feet and set it on the counter, walking back to the fridge and taking out the milk, pouring myself some and putting it back into the fridge. Even came in and looked at my 'meal' he looked a little concerned as usual and walked over to me.

"You don't want me to cook you something Ienzo?" he asked me looking at my bread. I shook my head and sipped at my milk. He nodded and patted my shoulder "The school said you can start there tomorrow." He said to me before walking into the living room. What is his job anyway? I headed back upstairs and sat at my desk nibbling at the bread and sipping the milk. Once I had finished I slipped out of my clothes and into my pyjamas, climbing into my bed and reading one of my favourite comics of batman, I slowly drifted off to sleep. I dreamt about what I might have to face in the morning that night. The new faces, the new people, the new bullies, I woke up from the dream and growled silently to myself telling myself to think about something else and go back to sleep. I managed to do so and slept until Even came into my room in the morning with a plate of pancakes and some milk.

"Ienzo, Ienzo its time to get up." He said setting the plate and glass on my bedside table. "I brought you some breakfast, you will need your energy today, meeting new people and making new friends." He said brushing a part of my fringe out of my face. I glared at him 'yeah right' I thought moving to sit over the edge of my bed gingerly sipping at the milk and eating the pancakes. Even was a good cook, I couldn't deny that. After I had finished and Even had taken my plate and glass down stairs I got up and walked sleepily to the bathroom, taking a quick shower and brushing my teeth. Afterwards I went back to my room and got dressed, I chose black jeans and a dark blue, long sleeved top. I sat at my desk and pulled out a mirror and hair gel and spray, styling my hair into its usual form and putting the things back into their place in the bottom drawer. I suppose I wanted to look presentable even if I had no real plans on talking to anyone, as usual.

I walked downstairs and looked over to Even who was waiting for me by the front door. I rolled my eyes at him and put on my black converse boots and coat. I put my bag over my shoulder and looked at Even who gave me a once over and nodded approvingly.

"Ready?" he asked me, I nodded slightly and walked out of the house to Even's car. Even unlocked the car and I got into the front passenger seat putting my bag on the floor of the car and strapping myself in drawing up my knees to my chest, I don't know why but I always sit in cars like that. On the way to my new school Even rambled about how exciting this was and then about his newest experiments, I wasn't really paying much attention as I was taking in the surroundings through the half open window. Finally we turned the corner into the school gates and I curled up tighter trying to figure out who to avoid by looking around at the people I could see waiting in the playground. Even turned off the ignition and turned to face me. He smiled and handed me some money for lunch, I took it and gave him a weak smile, my nerves more obvious than I thought as Even gave me a comforting smile and said.

"I am sure you will be fine Ienzo. Have a good day." He got out of the car and opened my door for me, I undid my seatbelt and got out of the car looking around nervously. Even smiled and took me to reception explaining to the receptionist that I was new and was unsure of where to go. The receptionist smiled and nodded.

"I can take him to his class Sir." She said standing up and coming through a small door in the wall. She looked at me and then at Even and asked if we were related, Even replied with a simple shake of his head, "I am his adopted father." He responded, I glared at him and crossed my arms. "He doesn't really talk to anyone..." Even added to the receptionist who nodded and started to lead me to the classroom that was going to be my form room for the rest of the time I was to be here.
