Chapter 26
Silent POV
It's been over 2 months since I've seen the flock. I mean I've been texting, Calling, and video chatting, but its never the same. I miss them all. Leo and Ian not so much, but Shadow. God I miss her so much. I miss her smile, the scowl she gives me when shes mad, the hum in her voice when shes singing to Zack, the crack in her voice when shes yelling. God I really miss her!
Sometimes I send her a video request and she wont answer. The others answer right away. When I ask to see Shadow shes usually with Zack at the park or in the shower or something. Excuses.
"Silent! Dinner!" I sighed and shut my laptop setting it on my bed side table
"Coming mom!" I yelled back. I kicked off the covers on my bed and got up stretching, satisfied with the loud crack that came from my back. I shuffled downstairs my stomach grumbling. My parents and siblings were already at the table serving food. I had to admit my mom was an amazing cook. Tonight, to the best of my luck, was steak.
I took a seat in one of the empty chairs and began filling my plate with food. My mom had learned how much I ate and started cooking more. What can I say? Avian humans have a high metabolism. All around me everyone talked openly about there day. My siblings went to school, and my mom and dad worked at a billing agency.
"There's this new weird girl at my school" Cici said around a mouth full of salad, "She's like a complete whore. She has a kid and has slept with half the senior football team" She turned to me "You'd like her. She's emo like you" I gripped my fork as I stared at her.
"Why do you sound so mad? Afraid she might be catching up to you on the whore train, huh bitch?" She dropped her fork staring me, then to our mom.
"Mom! He called me a whore and a bitch!"
"He's just stating a fact" Luke muttered and I fist bumped him under the table.
"Boys please be nice to your sister. Besides I think Silent going to school is a great idea! Instead of staying cooped up in a house all day" I stared at her.
"But I like my room…" She raised her eyebrows, "I have no choice do I?" she shook her head.
"I guess I could" I mumbled.
"That's great!"
~~~~~~~2 Weeks later~~~~~~
"I'm here to pick up my schedule" I said to the lady at the front desk, "Names Christopher Blackwood" She spun in her chair and shuffled threw some files before handing me a piece of paper.
Yep I'm going to real school! Last time I did this I was 15 and we ended up getting attacked. Guess I should remain optimistic this time. I rolled my eyes at my thoughts and exited the office.
First class was Science. Room 405, in the science wing. I looked down both the hall ways in front of me. This school was big. It had every grade from Kindergarten to 12th grade. I'm in 12th. Only have to deal with this for a year. It I stay here.
"Science wings to the right" I heard the office lady yell. I headed down that hall way only to have a girl come racing past me at almost inhuman speed. She seemed panicked and walked extremely fast. I kept walking to class. One thing on my mind.
Who was that girl?
