Returning Home

by arain101

This is my first fanfic. Spinelli returns home to Arkansas after 6 years of being away. She's back with a new name and look, even another family. But thats not her secret. How long will it be until everyone finds out her real secret? Or if they'll find out her secret?

8. Chapter 8 A New Student

Spinelli's POV

It's already been two days since I talked to my best friend Courtney, and that means in five more days she'll be here starting at Third Street High.

I can't wait to see her again.

''Lee, ready for school?'' Diana asked.

''Yeah, coming''

When we got to school I went to English and sat down beside T.J. I haven't talked to him since my first day of school because I don't want him to know who I am just yet. I looked at the front of the room and squinted my eyes to see who the teacher was talking to.

It's been five minutes already and she's still talking but I can't help but think, who that 'new girl' is. She looks so familiar and yet so different with blonde hair and a black headband.

''Class, quiet down now'' Ms. Lorne said ''We have a new student'' Everyone looked at the blonde haired girl standing beside the teacher ''Class, this is Courtney Thompson, Courtney I'd like you to take a seat beside Ashley A over there''

''Um, excuse me Ms. Lorne, I'd like to sit beside Lee there'' said Courtney.

''You know Lee? Well I'm sorry but you can see her after class'' Said the teacher.

''Yes I've known her for six years'' Replied Courtney ''And do you think I'll sit where ever little Ms. Fancy Pants Lorne tells me to sit?'' (A/N My best friend and I said that to a teacher in grade 11 2 years ago after she tried splitting us up across the room) Courtney asked sarcastically ''I'm sitting beside Lee and there is nothing you can do about it...Mmhmm'' Said Courtney wagging a finger in the teachers face.

Courtney walked down the aisle and stood beside Gus ''Get Lost Or Die'' threatened Courtney. Gus was shivering a bit avoiding eye contact with Courtney, Gus then squirmed away and slid in the desk beside the Ashley's. Courtney then took the desk beside Spinelli.

''Listen missy if you threaten any kids here then I'm calling your parents, we don't tolerate bullying here'' Said Ms. Lorne.

''Does it look like I give a damn? Lee what do you think?'' asked Courtney. Spinelli nodded her head in agreement with a smug look on her face.

''Ashley Carpenter, Courtney Thompson, principles office now!'' Yelled the teacher, pointing at the door. Courtney and I shrugged our shoulders and mimicked the teacher as we got up and laughed.

Courtney and I got a hall pass while laughing and walked out of the room towards the principals office.
