~ Chapter 16~
It had been a month or so since Ross had moved back home. She didn't see her mother much, maybe sides glances every now and then but besides that they ignored each other.
Ross was so busy with work and rehab she was barely home, her knee was getting stronger but she still needed to use crutches.
Now it was the first day... of school.
Hiei sat in a tree in Makai; he hadn't made himself known since their last mission and planed to leave it that way, though he knew the fox was on a mission to figure out the truth.
He sighed and pulled out a dried rose from his pocket, he examined it, deep in thought.
'I am NOT in love with her, but even if I were I can't feel guilty she told me to get on with my life.... damnit why do I have these feelings for this ningen' he thought as he pocketed it.
-BEEP-
Ross slammed her hand on the alarm as she rubbed her eyes, looking over she watched as her brother snored, she sighed and shook him,
He sat up and rubbed his eyes.
"You're going to be late" she said as he sighed and flopped back onto his pillow.
Ross sat at the table grabbing an orange she walked out of the door, to be stopped a wall.
She fell on her but and looked up in wonder at what had stopped her, there stood Trunks with a large grin on his face.
" Hey I see you need a lift" he said as she tilted her head as he grabbed her by the arm yanking to her feet, she stumbled a few steps not being able to keep her balance she stumbled into Trunks arms, she blushed lightly and chuckled uneasily as she grinned cheesily and he smiled.
"Come on then, don't wanna be late the first day do you" he said grabbing her hand and pulling her to his car, Gotein walked outside yawning as he sighed jumping into the car,
"Great school... again" he said as Trunks started up the car and took off in the air (hover car
Ross looked around confused,
"Uh why are... you going to school Trunks?" she asked as she heard a heavy sigh from trunks.
"Well my mom wanted me and Gotein to be in the same grade so, he he she made me wait and well that's why im a senior" said Trunks as he parked the car in the school parking lot.
Gotein stepped out and helped her out of the back as she went to the front of the school.
"What is your first class?" he asked as he took your schedule out of your hands.
"Heh I had him" he said looking up at the Orange County High.
"Cool, Im sure I can find it" you say as they just nod not sure if arguing with her was the best thing.
She walks in with them by her sides as about 200 girls stop what they're doing and run the boys giggling and gossiping about the summer, Ross squeezes out of the crowd and walks part way down the hall tog et a few glances, but they soon avert their eyes after getting the deadliest stare two saiyans can give, she sighed and walked as quickly as she could with her crutches down another hall averting her brother and over-protective best friend.
Sh wore a pair of semi tight dark blue jeans and combat boots, along with her brace which lay hidden under her clothes and a light blue button up shirt with a white under shirt underneath. Her hair in a messy bun, and crutches her back pack a pale grayish-blue lay on her back full of books.
She sighed and walked a few steps forward and then stops using her crutches,
'Screw it" she mumbled placing then in a near by janitor's closet she walked a few painful steps but bared it as she made her way down the hall support free.
She walked into her first class on time for once, she stopped at the entrance as some kids stopped what they were doing looked up at her as they went back again to conversing.
She sighed and sat down at a desk in the mid back, she sweat-dropped.
'I hate being the new girl' she thought as they bell rang.
She looked up at the chalk board it read 'English 101' she looked around the room had about 50 students which was fine, since she hated small crowds anyways.
A tall gangly man went in front of the class clearing his throat.
"Welcome to English 101 sophomore year, I am Mr. Gardner and this will be one class im sure you won't forget, I encourage debates and any point of view you have so please this is a class for personal sight, I expect no less from any of you" he finished.
Ross just raised an eye brow; the man wore a dark purple button up shirt with a black tie, along with jeans.
'Hmmm... ok' she thought
He began to call out role as she sat in her seat observing the students.
'So this is what it's like in a normal school' she thought.
"Ros-"Ross raised her hand.
"Ross" she said correcting him before he went further.
"Alright Ross Son it is" he said as everyone stopped and looked at her.
"She isn't related to Gotein is she? I mean she doesn't look anything like him she can't be" they mumbled in gossip as a sweat-drop went down the side of her face.
'What should I do I mean I don't want to ruin his reputation of having the new girl being hi sister, and who knows what will happen' she thought
"UH..." she said as the teacher interrupted them, starting the class,
She sighed in relief as the teacher started the lesson.
She stayed silent during most of the period until they had a 'tell something about yourself' game, they sat in a circle when it was finally her turn, she stood up.
"Hi, Ross and I just moved here"
"Where from" asked a guy, she smiled.
'Uh..." she thought.
"New York" she said smiling, as the teacher nodded.
"She can't be related to Gotein she just moved here" whispered a girl to another who nodded.
She looked over curious at what they were saying, the teacher cleared his throat.
"Oh right well I uh like to"
'Make this good Ross' she thought.
"Sing" she said before the word could be stopped from coming. He nodded.
She sat down, as a few people introduced themselves to her making her feel more comfortable.
Class was over as she packed up her things the teacher came up to her,
"Miss I was just wondering"
"I apologize for being a complete spaze, I really am an extroverted person it's just that first days tend to take me into a whirlpool of anarchy" she said making him raise a brow.
"Nice vocabulary miss impressing" he said as she raised her head now it was her time to raise a brow.
"Thank you sir, but what... may I ask you want me for?" she asked as he chuckled.
" Well you said today that you like to sing and I was wondering if you were in chorus by chance or have tried out for the musical or"
"No, no sir im not that good" she said as he smiled warmly.
"Well it's a way to meet people" he said as she nodded.
"Don't worry" she said with a grin.
"Im sure it won't be long till they notice my existence" she said swinging the bag on her shoulder as she walked out of the room.
'Man learning how to act around these people is though' she thought as was handed a Algebra 2 book, which took up a large portion of her bag.
'Day over' she sighed as she walked down the hall; she spotted her brother and hid out of view.
'He'll kill me if he finds out im without my crutches' she thought as he turned to talk to a pretty girl she dodged down the hall and got them out of the closet, she made it out of the door without anyone noticing, until.
-BANG-
She smacked right into a large wall once again Trunks stared down at her a girl holding onto his arm.
"You alright" he said helping her up.
'Yeah, yeah Im fine" she said brushing herself off.
"Let me"
"No, no it's fine I got it I gotta get to work so uh" she nodded to the girl and limped down the side walk as Trunks motioned for the girl to wait going after her.
"you know" he said running in front of her making her stop.
"I can give you a ride it's no big"
"Don't worry about it , I can take the bus like you know normal people" she said making the last two words linger on her lips.
"Are you mad at me" he asked looking at her back with a raised eye brow, she turned around.
"No, of course not I just have stuff to do is all" she said as he tilted his head in confusion she crossed the street and got on the 'Big Cheese' driving off onto the highway.
