Chapter Three: Don't Wanna Know

Kitty was in a happier state the time Monday rolled around, maybe it was because school excited her in some odd way. (Yes, she knew it was lame.) But being at school, learning about Roman history and Greek cathedrals, it warmed her heart in a way that her mom's homemade chocolate fudge brownies couldn't even do. And for that Kitty loved it. The one thing she didn't like about school – or her old one for that fact was the way people acted if you were different. She knew her parents didn't have all the money in the world, and she knew that she wasn't exactly the most "clean cut" kid on earth but does it really give the entire student body an excuse to snub her existence?

She didn't think so.

So as Kitty walked into her homeroom that day she was expecting the worse, worse than Logan calling her an 'animal', because now that she really thought about it, it wasn't a big deal. Because Logan didn't even know the capital of Florida.

And he was a freshman.

Maybe Kitty was thinking this to make herself feel superior – because not everyone is a geography whiz like herself. Or maybe she was thinking this to make herself get over Logan because really there was nothing remotely attractive about the guy. (Okay, that's a lie but…)

Still.

She was trying.

"HEY KITTY!" Quinn waved at her enthusiastically as she walked into Mr. Bender's homeroom class. Kitty had woken up later that morning and decided to walk to class by herself.

Without being escorted by her roommate.

"Hey Quinn, what's up?" Kitty waved, her lisp being dominant, due to the fact that she was wearing a new tongue ring and she was nervous. Kitty's speech was slurred when she was nervous, and there was no way around it. She hoped that Logan wasn't in that class, she hoped that he hadn't heard her voice.

(God what was happening to her? She never thought about what ANYONE thought about her before.)

"Hey Kitty", Logan waved, interrupting her thoughts, "What's going on".

Kitty shrugged, deciding not to answer in words.

To her, that would be committing social suicide.

(God help this girl now, what's going on with her?)

Mr. Bender walked up to Kitty, "Hey you must be Kitty Von Keering; I'm your homeroom teacher Mr. Bender. Nice to meet you".

"Nice to meet you too sir", Kitty spat, "Sorry…"

"It's fine, it's fine", Mr. Bender, "Take a seat next to Logan, that'll be your assigned seat for the rest of the semester".

No.

He did not.

That man did not just force Kitty to sit next to Logan. LOGAN! Logan, the guy who called her an animal, the asshole who she was supposed to hate everything about, the guy who wasn't cute AT ALL. The guy who was messing with her mind and had the most beautiful smile Kitty had ever seen in her whole life.

She sat down next to him and took out her schedule.

"What classes do you have?" Logan asked.

Without saying a word, Kitty showed Logan her schedule.

"Wow, advanced calculus?"

"Yeah, not what you'd expect from an animal right?" Kitty didn't care about her lisp; she honestly really didn't, "Because us animals, we're inhumane. But I guess I'm special, or maybe I'm just a freak right?"

"Kitty…"

Kitty took her schedule back, "Yes Logan?"

"When I called you an animal…"

"I didn't mean it", Kitty nodded, "I don't want to know what you mean okay? I don't care".

"You don't look like you would – you don't look like you'd cry over me calling you an animal either".

"Cry?" Kitty spat the word out, "cry? I did it for dramatic effect, to make you feel like shit. I know my deed was done".

Kitty saw out of the corner of her eye, Quinn was trying to cast some spell on some sorts on Logan, she knew this because Quinn kept on clawing her fingers out to Logan, as if she was conducting a parade of animals to trample him.

Kitty burst out laughing.

"What's so funny?" Logan asked as the whole class began to pay attention to Kitty.

Quinn stopped what she was doing and met Kitty's gaze, she too was laughing as well.

"Kitty, why are you laughing", he turned and saw Quinn, literally falling out of her chair laughing as well, "What's going on".

"Trust me Logan", Kitty caught her breath, "You don't want to know".
