(A/n: Monday, April 12, 2010 I just wrote half of my chapter on the internet only to have it erased when I tried to save it. I feel like punching something! UGH! Anyway, I am sorry for the mispelled words and other editing mistakes in the last chapter. I posted it as soon as I finished it to tide my readers over until this chapter could be written. I had this whole long speech about everthing going on with me but I don't feel like retyping it, so maybe next chapter. I hate being set back and it's happened like a million times. I am now writing on a stupid WordPad in hopes that this will actually save my damn work!

Hey guys. I took a break from writing this and am now picking up where I left off {normally I write chapters all the way through without stopping}. I am sitting in a theater chair in my house watching TV while doing this and I wanted to tell you what has happened to me in the past few days. Yesterday I was playing in a softball tournament and I hurt my knee pretty badly. I hyper-extended it. Please pray that there is nothing that is seriously wrong with me. I could loose my scholarship and that is not good. Don't ask where I'll be going to school. I believe highly in internet saftey so I will give out no personal information and that includes my name and where I live. My knee really hurts, so I'm going to guilt you into reviewing....ha-ha. It really does hurt though.)

I walked up the metal steps of the bus Max's hand in mine. I felt her tense up but walk down the isle all the same. She sheperded the kids into one section and we sat behind them. She was taking deep breaths and I knew she was having a panic attack. I pulled her into my lap and started murmuring to her and rocking her. Her breaths became less shallow and she held onto me tightly for the rest of the ride. Half way through the ride, the guy sitting in the seat next to us looked at me questioningly. I replied, "She is extrememly claustrofobic. She will be fine in a minute when she becomes more comfortable when she realizes that is not really a giant yellow death trap." I earned a slap for that smartmouth comment.

I looked down, "Love you too" I said sarcastically

My reddened cheek was kissed, but Max put her head near mine and then waited for the bus to let us off at the school. As soon as the bus stopped Max darted out and I followed her apologizing to everyone she trampled. Max got out then latched on to me, giving me a heady kiss on the mouth. I liked this....Ha-ha.

"Is there any other small place we can squeeze through?" I asked hoping for a laugh.

Sure enough, I got one joined with a half-hearted shove that didn't move me.

We all walked into the Elementary/Middle School building. Max, Iggy and I went our seperate ways dropping off Angel, Gazzy and Nudge. I took the Gasman to his class and sent out a prayer to Max hoping she had an easy time with Angel.

I took Angel's hand and went into Mrs. Newman's First Grade class. I walked up to the teacher and waited for her attention. After she finished talking to the child, she turned to Angel and I. I could feel her sizing us up as she greeted us and pointed Angel to where she should hang her coat.

She watched Angel walk off and then turned to me, frowning slightly. "Are you Angel's mother" she asked this hesitant but politely, seeing that I was really too young to have a child this age.

I smiled, "She's my pride and joy and a daughter to me, but I didn't birth her if that's what you're asking. Her mother gave her and her brother up for adoption just like my parents did to my self and the rest of my brothers and sisters. I live with my real mom now that I found her and we adopted the rest of the kids now that we are together. I raised Angel and her brother Zephyr and Tiffany-Krystal another little girl. Two boys my age live with us too. Jeff is like my brother and Nick is my boyfriend. Angel here is a very smart girl, but just needs a little bit of help learning. She hasn't had a good school experiance and I hope that changes here." I looked up at the clock on the wall. "I have to go or I'll be late to school. I'll go have a small chit-chat with Angel and then I'll be off. It was nice talking to you." I smiled and turned on my heel to Angel. I squatted in front of her like a mom would do on her childs first day and straightened her shirt. "No funny buisness. Behave and be normal. I love you and I'll see you at lunch baby doll." She gave me a hug and I kissed her head.

I walked outside the door to see the boys waiting on me. I grabbed Fang's hand and we all walked to the highschool building. As we approached the building we saw kids that were around our age come out and in the giant building doors. We all had the same schedule except Iggy had a different fourth hour because he had wanted to take mechanics instead of creative writing. He didn't want to take that class simply because he knew Fang and I wanted a class alone and Mechanics was 2,000 times more fun than writing in a book.

"Steps coming Iggy. About six inches deep and four inches tall. Coming in 3 paces." I said quickly.

Iggy held onto the rail and walked up them so normally that you wouldn't have known that he was blind. I admired Iggy for the fact that he didn't let blindness stop him. The guy was detered alot and he always came through. I feel bad about what is about to happen to him all day because he would be molly-coddled until they all realized that he was able to do many things by himself.

We walked through the school giving Iggy directions and tapping his hands for different signals to show him where to go. "Hot girl 12 o'clock." Fang grinned. I smacked him and pulled my hand from his. He frowned and grabbed my hand. Yanked it away again and went to the other side of Iggy. We didn't talk except for directions and we made it to class about 20 minutes early.

"Maybe we should go find out lockers since we have so much time on our hands." Fang and I made our way to the lockers and helped Iggy along too. Once we told him where to go, we wouldn't have to tell him how to get back, but that was just how Iggy worked. We opened our lockers and stuffed all of our books besides our first hour class which just happened to be Geometry. I pulled out a small folder and put a small stack of notebook paper in it.

As we walked back to the classroom, Fang slowed down and drifted behind Iggy and I. I was wondering what he was doing, but then I felt a hand in my right back pocket. I turned around to punched him, but he stooped me, pulling me into a kiss. I melted like butter and then put my arms around his waist and followed Iggy. Fang put his arm around me so I leaned into him.

We got back to the class just as the first bell rang. We all (minus Iggy) looked over to the teacher's desk to find a big and tall man. We walked over to his desk and I smiled letting go of Fang. Fang drop his arm too, to my waist, but pulled his mouth into a straight line. The classic Fang smile.

"Hello I'm Coach Reagan and I'm your Geometry teacher. I expect that you are Jeff, Max and Nick?" Coach Reagan said in a very expectant voice.

"I'm Max." I started, "And this is Nick" I motioned to Fang "and Jeff" pointing to Iggy.

"Okay I've set you all at the back near the windows because I know about Max's claustrofobia. Jeff, I realize that you're blind so I have come up with an alterna-"

"I will not take an alternate course!" Iggy yelled. The Coach looked startled, but Iggy continued. "I am just as capable or even more so than people that can see. Blindness, Coach, isn't a disadvantage, but an advantage. I have better hearing than you and all of the people in this school. So don't go makeing excuses for me."

"I'm sorry son." The coach began. "You can take the regular course. If you need any help from me, let me know. Maybe your friends will be able to explain the lectures to you in more details when they are over. Class will be starting in five minutes so take a seat at the very back left of the room."

"Three paces 12 o' clock then seven paces three o' clock. Seat on your right." I said and walked to my seat, Fang sitting in between Iggy and I. Some other students were in the class through the whole scene and witnessed Iggy walking to his seat with precision. They were impressed. I could tell. We started the lesson and basically reexplained everything to Iggy once we were done. We would have Angel project images into his mind when we got home. For now we did our homework and Fang guided Iggy's hand on the paper, tracing the problem. Soon he decided to just outline every problem in his workbook hard with pen so Iggy could feel his paper and not ask for help every single problem.

We read the last problem to Iggy (it was a word problem) and he finished just as the bell rang. We made our way to our lockers and then helped Iggy to Spanish, hugging the wall so he could count the paces it took him to get there. We went through basically the same drill except Sna. Love said things first in Spanish and then said them in English.

When class started she said, "Abren sus libros en la página doscientos setentayuno. Ponga sus libros debajo del escritorio y repetan el vocabulario después de mí." and then said, "Open your books to page two hundred seventy-one. Put your workbooks under your desk and repeat the vocabulary after me."

This class went better than Geometry because it was a mostly an oral class. The bell rang and we walked to the Elementary School to eat lunch with the kids. We met Nudge and The Gasman on the benches as planned and I sent Iggy to go get Angel. I would have gone to get her, but all the food was in my bag and it wasn't like Iggy could help with the distribution. I had planned our whole meal out before we went to the store so I had all of the food groups. The only weird thing about this was I packed an entire days worth of food instead of a meals worth. I fished out long baguets of bread they were about three ounces a peice and I cut them open with Fang's pocket knife (which I retrieved myself *wink-wink*) and buttered them very lightly. I pulled out my still hot meatballs and cut them up into eighths before I placed them and the sause in the sandwhich bread. I got out the paper plates, cutting each of the sanwhiches into fourths I stacked them onto the plates and let everyone dig in while I poured milk into cups. I opened up a very full tupperware container of mixed vegetables. I scooped the mix of chopped spinach, broccoli, asparagus, and diced red, green and yellow bell peppers on to everyones plates. I then brought out miniature fruit cups and put one next to everyone. I filled up everyones milk again then sat down to eat. I had dessert for everyone (miniature ice cream cups), but I would wait for everyone to finish. The meal tasted delicious if I do say so myself. I felt like a mother hen taking care of her chicks. I watched them finish their food and throw their trash away. When I was finished, Fang picked up my trash and I got up to hand out the ice cream cups. Everyone ate their desserts with their plastic spoons and then threw those away too.

We had about fifteen minutes till class started again. I needed to get Angel back, so Fang went with Iggy, The Gasman, and I to Angel's class, leaving Nudge to find her way, letting her visit with her friends outside. I wanted to meet The Gasman's teacher anyway. I held Fang's hand as we walked into Angel's class. We went to talk to Mrs. Newman.

I smiled, "Hey Mrs. Newman. This is my boyfriend Nick, my brothers Jeff and Zephyr." I said this as Gazzy ran to help Angel with her coat.

Mrs. Newman shook Fang's hand and held her hand out for Iggy to shake. He stood there unaware and confused as to why we were silent. She looked at him awkwardly, then dropped her hand in the same fashion.

I quickly started talking so she didn't feel too bad, "Jeff is blind. He didn't see you hand Mrs. Newman."

Iggy blushed and held out his hand for Mrs. Newman to shake and she shook it smiling.

I laughed, "I'm rolling my eyes Jeff." I turned to Mrs. Newman and smiled for the millionth time today, "Has Angel been trouble?"

"No Ma'am. I could practically see her halo at the top of her head." Mrs. Newman looked at Fang as she said this and then to Iggy.

"We better be getting back babe, we still need to drop Gazzy off and then get back to class. You can ask her about Angel's day when we pick her up." Fang let go of my hand and then grabbed my waist.

"You read my mind," I said pecking his jaw. I then turned to yell to Gazzy, "Come on Zephyr, we have ten minutes to meet your teacher and get back to class." then to Angel, "Be good. See you when school's out. I love you." She ran over and hugged me and Fang. I kissed her head again, Fang did too, and we walked out the door and hurridly made our way to Gazzy's class. We made it in and out of there without much hassle and assured the teacher that if anything was to change in his currently calm demeanor, that we should be notified after school. He assured us, "He has been a great kid all day, he is a little rowdy, but a great kid all in all."

I smiled, "We'll all be back for a full report after school." I knelt before Gazzy, "You be good and I'll be bac at three o'clock to pick you up. I love you." I kissed his forehead and he gave me a huge hug.

"Come on baby, we're going to be late." Fang took my hand and we went to our last class with Iggy.

(A/n: As you might not have heard, my MRI for my knee is today, so I'm posting this earlier, and I'll write the next half of today right now. I'll post that as soon as I'm completely through and have enough reviews.)
