Chapter 5 The Jock, The Tease and The Ex-friend
Dear Diary,
Well the past month was a pain. Now my oldest brother is the problem, why is life picking on me? Who knows more things might happen. Well here's my day today.
Haven High
Opal walked the halls of Haven High wondering if the school life will be better than the life of her family. There was huge halls the were covered in art work other fairies had done and flyers of that the teachers and students put up. Lockers were on the 1st and 3rd floor. Opal had skipped a grade, now she was in high school, not middle school which was called, Haven junior high, almost like Haven high but middle school version. Opal had class with her older brother that had the same birthday as her, Tyler. Opal walked to Math class and walked in the door-way seeing her ex-friend Holly Short.
Holly Short and Opal were best friends before until they had a fight. [AN: That's another reason why she turned to her evil side, But that's another side story]
Holly was that bratty cheerleader that was on the squad, she was captain of the cheerleaders, she was called Captain Short. Everyone liked her humor and her ambitousness when it comes to the squad. Opal always had a bone to pick with her and Holly always won the arguement. Holly would now gang up on her with her other cheerleader friends saying that she was a nerd and that her clothes weren't nice on her.
Opal walked steadly to her seat at the back of the room, Holly who was talking to her friends laughing, giggling about boys and talking about them becoming famous and that girly things. Holly saw Opal and gazed at her while she sat down. Holly wasn't all kind as everyone think she was, she was actually mean. She mouthed to Opal. 'You suck' with a scowl. As soon she did that her other friends glared at her with her and that made Opal feel unwanted to the class. She thought life at school wasn't that bad, but it was still hurtful.
"Okay class lets start with the Math with grunt work that I have for you." Opal rolled her eyes thinking that it was much too easy for her. The teacher knew that Opal was intelligent and only gave Opal grade 12 math work which was 2% more advanced than what she already knew.
Tyler came into the class late, just smiling away, not having a care in the world.
"Tyler! You're late! Sit down and you'll be having detention after school for 15 minutes"
The teacher handed Opal her work and smiled at her contently. Opal knew she was smarter than the teacher and could go to collage instantly if she wanted to, but her parents are only letting her skip on grade which was 8th grade.
Opal should be in the gifted program since everyone in her class hated her except her teacher. Her parents didn't agree with her decision, so now she was stuck with a bunch of simpletons. Opal was doing her work quietly when something hit her head. Opal looked up to see Tyler with a straw in his hand and his friend giving him a high five. Tyler was always teasing Opal and giving her a hard time with her life. Tyler hated Opal fro having the same birthday and so, he wants her out of his life (or so she heard). Opal felt her black hair and something rather wet was in her hair. She pulled it out of her hair looking at it in disgused. Holly also saw the comotion and smirked at her, giving a wink at Tyler.
Holly threw a paper ball at Opal and everthing was crumble in her life. She had to put up with everything in her life and she might explode like a bomb after it's at it's very edge.
The bell rang and she had to think up ways to get revenge at everyone. She saw her eldest brother Matt walking the halls trying to look cool, he was the jock of the school always playing sports and flirting with girls. He was very strong but he was mean to every nerd even Opal. She was supposed to do his homework for him or else. She feared him a little bit now since she had magic. It was against fairy regulations to mesmerize other fairies. Matt almost looked like a mud-man with a hood over his head. Opal went up to Matt that was listening to music.
"Hey Matt!" She greeted him with smiles, but he didn't answer.
"Hey Matt!" She repeated and Matt looked at her taking his earbuds off quickly and glaring at her.
"What do you want Opal?" He mumbled angrily. He couldn't stand her being at his sight.
"That's rude for your imformation" Opal stated and she crossed her arms tilting her head expecting an apology from him, but nothing came out of his mouth. He just smiled evily.
"So, now where's my homework Opal? One of my essays are due today." Opal shook her head in delight that she didn't did what he said since now she had magic. Matt didn't have magic which was an advantage.
"I didn't write any essays, you're on your own Matt"
"You NERD!" He almost yelled.
"I'm not a nerd, I am gifted"
"Only a nerd would say that Opal." He blurted back and he turned away to walk to his next class that he was going to fail. He came back to get Opal into an empty class room to speak with her in private.
"You are going to pay for not doing what I say, middle child, I would say runt, but Kristina is already the youngest that I love, not you." Opal's eyes widened. She wasn't surprised that much, but she was about to cry her eyes out since no one really liked her anymore. She only had Kristina. Matt lifted Opal to his face. Opal felt like a deja-vu feeling.
"Next time do what I say and I will not say anything to Father about making me mad."
"You wouldn't!" She glared at his chocolate brown eyes that was before her.
"I would Opal. Guess what? I am going to make your life miserable in the school life from now on."
"Only from a essay that you will fail?"
"And all those other times aswell" Matt threw Opal to the ground. SHe hit her head on a chair almost breaking her neck causing her to die, but Matt didn't care all he did was walk into the hall seeing cute pixie girl walked by and he started to flirt with them. Opal knew that she had to work alone to get revenge. Kristina was the only person who she could trust, but what if she betrayed her? No Opal thought That would never happen. Opal walked out the empty room holding her neck in pain. Opal saw a poster with a competiton written on it.
Science Fair on Friday. Winner gets a scholarship and a interview that goes on the news.
Invent and succeed.
Opal grabbed the flyer and bolted out the school, not a care that she was ditching and started to get to her invention that she already had planned in her study.
Sorry it wasn't that long and good but I wanted to get that chapter out of the way and the next couple of chapters. And sorry I haven't posted for a long time but school and I got grounded... I will give you the next chapter's name which is called : A Cheater at the Science Fair and that will be sooner that later.
