I went to school on Monday. When I walked in the door two girls started in on me.
"Slut"
"FYI. Being raped doesn't make you a slut. Sleeping with anything does."
"Oh that's funny. At least I didn't send to innocent people to prison."
"I didn't either and if you don't believe me you can get on the internet and read the court transcripts. They are a matter of public record. Now if you don't mind class is about to start."
"What a bitch."
Just as I was about to way something to her the teacher walked in. After class he asked to see me.
" I heard what those girls said to you."
"Yeah I wish I could just get high school over with."
"There maybe a way you can."
"What are you talking about?"
"I teach a class at the local college 3 nights a week. It is for older people but I think it would help you. I looked at your file and you have enough credits to graduate the only problem is you need 4 years of high school math and English If you help me I will help you."
"What do you want me to do?"
"Well I'm interested in becoming a werewolf and I want to know as much as I can before I make my final decision. I figured who better to help me learn then a werewolf."
"I think I can do that but I would have to talk to my father first and I will tell you right now there will be somethings I can't tell you."
"I understand that."
When I went home, I talked to Ben and my dad.
" My English teacher says there is a way for me to graduate early,"
"How is that?"
"He teaches a math and English class at the college 3 nights a week. It would give me the needed 4 years. I asked him what he wanted and he said that he is thinking about the change and wants me to tell him everything I can about werewolves. Do you think I should do it?"
"What is the sudden interest in graduating early? I thought you were OK with graduating on time."
"I was until everything happened. Now I'm having a problem with these 2 girls. They keep calling me a slut and saying that I put 2 innocent people in prison, I'm just tired of it."
"I think it sounds like a good idea."
"Really?"
" Yes I do. I trust you. I think those girls are just trying to make you lose it and the faster you get out of there the better."
"Thanks Ben. I love you."
" Love you too."
"If that's what makes you happy then I say go for it."
"OK I will let him know tomorrow."
I went back to school the next day and told him that I would do it. We started that night with my first class. Then after class I spent an hour explaining the change to him.
" OK next time I will explain what I can about the pack."
"Sounds good."
I went home and cuddle in bed with Ben. I fell asleep talking to him about class. The next 3 months went by fast. The class was easy for me. On the last night of class I decided to show Mr. Bane what a werewolf looked like. He was speechless. After I changed back he told me that he had decided to attempt the change during the summer. Before I left he handed me my certificate so I could give it to the superintendent on Monday. When I got home I showed it to Ben.
"I got it. As of Monday I will be a high school graduate."
"Are you serious?"
"Yep I worked my ass off and got 2 years worth of math and English done in 3 months."
"Well I'm proud of you."
"Thanks"
"So what did your teacher decide?"
"He is going to do it this summer."
"Cool"
