Mitchie's P.O.V.
I was shocked when Alex asked me out but then again maybe it was too soon. "Alex, your nice and all but we are just friends and its only been like a day". I then looked down I didn't want to see the upset look on her face. "It's not always going to be a no but it's just too soon okay?" I asked her finally looking up to meet her. She seemed to be keeping herself together. I watched as she nodded her and head and we kept walking to school.
Alex's P.O.V.
I was mentally crossing my fingers when I waited for Mitchie's answer. I will admit that it felt weird when I was rejected but I guess I just have to wait for the right time. I kept the conversation at random until we got to school and we went our separate ways. I sat in the court yard while I waited for the bell to ring. I put my ear buds in and listened to random music until the bell rang.
I went to all my classes on schedule until I realized that Mitchie and I had to work on our project. I mentally cursed and walked to where I had to go. A few people were standing by the wall watching as people were walking to class. I stood with them. They waited until the hallway was clear and then we all went in. I sat down in the same seat as the day before. I could feel the anxiety growing in my stomach as I waited for Mitchie to come in. I was surprised when she walked in late and the teacher scolded her.
She looked like she had been crying and I started to grow worried. I waited until the teacher gave us time to work on our reports. I turned to Mitchie "What's wrong?" I asked her and she wiped her face clean. "Nothing, I'm fine" she said and you could tell she was lying. "Lets work on this project" she said and I agreed. I wouldn't push her to talk about it. She pulled out the paper so we could answer all the questions we had too. It had about 10 questions on it.
Full name?
Age?
Race?
Powers?
Ancestors? (if any)
How do you feel about being your race?
How do you fit into society?
How did you learn to control your powers?
Are you open about your powers with other people of your race?
I sighed and started answering all of her questions. I lied about my ancestors. It hurts to lie to Mitchie but I have too. I can't tell her who my mom is or what I am on her side of the family. I told her about how my dad is close with Bruce Wayne and I consider him my Uncle. I started going into depth and then the bell rang. I watched as she quickly hung up and ran out of the classroom.
I got up and finished putting my stuff away. Only 3 more periods. I quickly ran for English. The day went by pretty fast and soon enough it was time for last period and I started wondering about what Mitchie was upset about.
Mitchie's P.O.V.
I was at my locker getting ready for resource period when I heard laughing. Once again I was going to get shit from Mr. Shane Grey. This guy never left me alone. I turned around and he was right behind me and put me in a spot where I couldn't leave the small space I was in. He started teasing me until he tried to get me to ditch school with him. "Shane I will tell you this once. I will not go out with you, and I will not ditch school with you just so you can try and get in my pants".
He then picked up his hand and hit it on the locker. "Mitchie, Mitchie, Mitchie" he repeated to me. "I will get what I want and you will give it to me". I then backed up a little bit waiting until I can run for class. He looked mad now. He took his fist and punched me in the face. I fell on the floor and it hurt. I grabbed my jaw and looked up at him. My black hair was covering that part of my face.
"Come on Shane shes not worth it!" exclaimed one of his friends. The other one agreed with him. Shane backed up "I will get you for this" he scolded me. I got up and grabbed my things. I shoved them in my bag. I quickly ran to class. I made it there late and the teacher scolded me. I sat right down next to Alex and put all of my stuff I needed on the desk. I tried to stay away from peoples questions. I just tried to make it through the period.
