I do apologise for this onee being kinda short, I'm studying for my physics exam and yer this is my little 2am 'break' from study... so enjoy, while i go to sleep so i can study all day again later today for my exam tomorrow!
Belle was seriously worried about the evil glint showing in Kelly's eyes. Her normally unreadable facial expression gone in favour of one where Belle could read the older girl through the colours and feelings dancing through her eyes. Something had annoyed the head girl, and Belle was desperate to find out and fix it. She followed Kelly down to the hall to grab a bite to eat, and when they sat down she asked straight out what was wrong.
"There's only 4 weeks left of the school year. I've only got four weeks of school left... Forever. I have to get a job, and make a life for myself away from St Trinians. Only problem is, I don't know what I want anymore, Belle. Polly thinks that we shouldn't be doing this. She told me to stop messing around with you." Kelly spilled all the fears that had been bugging her for days just like that. They spewed out and she just couldn't stop them.
"Ohh, Kel. Who cares what Polly says? Since when do you listen to what anyone else says, huh?" Belle chuckled, trying to get rid of the older girls insecurities. Yeah, she was going to leave St Trinians, but it was her home, she wouldn't be gone for long. Belle was secretly hoping that Kelly would be asked to stay on as a teacher or something like that, and had hinted at this future for Kelly to her Aunty, who had taken it under consideration.
The girls left the hall, in favour of somewhere more quiet, they weren't really in the mood for everyone else's company. They went and sat on the roof, their favourite hide away. Most of the other girls knew about it by now, so when they went missing for a while it was assumed that they were on the roof, but no one ever bothered to come and get them anymore. They never went back to the dorms with them anyway, so why bother?
"I've been offered so many jobs. Seems everyone wants a St Trinians head girl under their control, ha ha. I don't know which offer to take though. I don't want to be too far away from St Trinians. I don't want to leave the country or anything like some bosses are suggesting. I mean, the Australian secret services offered me a job. I barely even know where Australia is!" Kelly laughed without any real emotion. She didn't want to go to Australia. She didn't want to leave Belle.
They sat there for hours, content with each others company, with the conversation about the future hanging heavily in the air around them. Neither of them were really into the conversation though, since it was about the future, something neither of them really wanted to talk about, but it was also something that both girls knew needed to be talked about. By the end of the day, they still weren't sure what the future held for either of them, but they were both happy to just live in the moment and be happy with right now. Kelly, though, had decided in her mind which job she was going to accept.
She had, in her mind, chosen the job that would give her the most time to return to the school and continue her relationship with Belle. It was also seemingly a relatively safe job, which was a massive added bonus in Kelly's head! She quite liked the idea of not having the threat of being killed every second of every day hanging over her young head. Maybe only every few days.
Kelly hadn't told Belle of her decision yet, she had to wait until the right time. Kelly knew that the younger girl would not be too pleased about the job and the risks involved, but it had guaranteed her at least 10 days off a month, which she could spend at St Trinians, since she didn't really have anywhere else she would go. Her parents had dropped her at St Trinians at the ripe old age of 10 and she had never heard from either of them again.
Kelly had been a naughty child, she freely admitted it herself, but she didn't believe she was bad enough to be basically disowned by her parents. Yeah, she had hotwired her fathers car and hit a tree. Yeah, she had taken things from their pockets. Yeah, she didn't do what she was told, but what 10 year old does? She didn't think she was bad enough to warrant the silence of the last 8 years of her life. When they didn't come to pick her up for the holidays at the end of that first year, Miss Fritton basically took Kelly under her wing, groomed her to be head girl. Who she had become was all because of her parents leaving her at the school.
She developed into a girl who rarely let anyone in, who had a look that could kill and didn't really show any emotions. Miss Fritton liked these qualities in the girl, but she worried about Kelly Jones constantly, she didnt really fit in with the other girls at the school, yet she fit into the school so perfectly. What she was going to do when her schooling ended, where she was going to go?
All these worries had disappeared the moment Annabelle Fritton stepped onto the scene. The headmistress could see Kelly Jones' icy stare melting the minute she looked at Belle. The girls had this spark between them there was no denying it, and Kelly just couldn't help but be intrigued by this.
Kelly was thinking about all this as she lay down on her bed, listening to her iPod as she usually did at night, wondering if she had made the right choice. She made a decision to tell Belle the job decision the next day. "No point delaying it, will just make her worry more about what I'm going to do." Kelly knew that Belle wouldn't entirely agree with her choice of career to begin with, but she would warm to it when Kelly told her how much time off she would be given!
