Here's another chapter and I'm still really sorry for not updating this, but I've had writer's block, schoolwork and other important things that I've had to worry about. I also wanted to thank you all for giving me some ideas too because it actually started to help me get out of my writer's block. I wanted to give a special thanks to squirmyorchid. This chapter is told by Zoe's POV by the way.

Little did they know, a certain home program was watching their small act of PDA.
A Couple of Days Later…
Finally, I can go to school! I've been cooped up in the house for the past four days trying to get better! However, these past few days have been awkward for me and Chase, and we've been avoiding each other for the most part, unless we need to talk to each other. I think it's because I went a little too far with the Eskimo kiss, but it's also been because Davenport suggested that I start meditating in order to keep my mood swings a little bit at bay and so far, it's working really well. In addition, I've even been able to control my powers completely because of all the meditating now!
Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep…crash!Oops, there goes my alarm clock. Hey, don't judge me, I was never a morning person. Grudgingly, I got out of bed and went took a nice warm shower to start my day. Unfortunately, because I need to meditate every day before school, I need to get earlier than everyone else in order to keep my cool and not kill anyone. After I took my shower, I grabbed a pair of ripped jean shorts that ended at my knees, a pair of red All Star sneakers, a gray beanie, a gray band, circular silver earrings, a red tank top, a loose black shirt with 'Black Rose' in red print and my silver heart shaped locket. I put on my outfit, except for the beanie and I brushed my waist length red hair, blow-dried it and then I put my beanie on.
I sat down cross-legged and took deep breaths as I began my meditation, clearing my mind of any distractions. Why did I give Chase an Eskimo kiss, anyways? I mean, yeah he's pretty cute, but seriously, why so soon? Now, look what you've done! Neither one of you can stay in the same room together, unless you have to and for training. It's not like he'll be able to like you back, anyways. You're bipolar and he's….a perfectionist, I think. You were born with your powers and they've got microchips embedded somewhere in their necks that allow them to have their abilities. He has a guy version of Ally, super intelligence and he can make force fields. You control the Earth's forces, telepathy, super strength and super agility. We're not compatible! He's a goody two shoes and you're a….wild tomboy.I mentally ranted and for a while, I just pushed those thoughts to the back of my mind and thought about keeping my cool at school.
Knock, knock, knock! I opened my eyes and went over to my door only to find Chase standing there awkwardly as he rubbed the back of his neck nervously.
"Can I help you with something?" I asked emotionless and he stared down at his feet avoiding any eye contact with me whatsoever. It was really starting to bug me.
"Um….I just wanted to see if you were awake. You know, because we have to go to school," Chase asked nervously. I rolled my eyes and leaned against the doorframe with my arms crossed against my chest. He's too cute when he's nervous. NO! Stop it, Zoe. We're not going to go through with the love at first sight drama. He's not your type and you're not his type. I mentally scolded myself.
"I've been up since 5 in the morning," I replied monotonously, his eyes went wide, and his jaw dropped.
"What?" Chase squeaked and I rolled my eyes as I walked past him to go make myself some breakfast.
"Remember, I have to meditate in order for me to keep my powers and emotions at bay. That also means I have to get up extra early," I said without looking at him as I walked down the stairs. Quickly, I made myself some a bowl of cereal and ate it as I waited for everyone to come down to have breakfast. I looked over at the time to see that it was almost 6 a.m. Wow, I can't believe I've been meditating for almost a whole hour! That's a new record! Soon, everyone raced downstairs and began to get ready for the day.
"Good morning, Zoe. Are you ready for your first day of school?" Tasha asked cheerfully and I stared at her suspiciously. I could tell she was just trying to be cheerful, but it's too early to be so cheerful.
"Yeah, but I'm not too thrilled about it." I stated and I walked upstairs to my room in silence. Sighing heavily, I plopped down on my bed and grabbed my iPod, and my other school necessities.
"Zoe, time to go!" I heard Jane called and I grabbed my purple backpack as I walked casually down the staris.
We all piled into Tasha's car and she drove us to school by the time we got there, it was already 6:30 a.m. My siblings (besides Angie), and the Davenports took me to Principal Perry's office who did not look very friendly in my opinion.
"Ah, welcome Ms. Davidson! I'm sure you'll like it here at our high school and I'm glad you could actually join us today," Principal Perry exclaimed unenthusiastically. I frowned at her, I already knew she wasn't a good principal just by the way she's talking and from how my siblings explained to me.
"Sorry, but I was really sick for these past couple of days," I responded emotionless. Principal Perry rolled her eyes and sent me a deep scowl.
"Yeah, sure you were kid. I'm pretty sure you were out partying and skipping school. I can literally smell trouble and you've got a boatload of it, so let me make myself clear. You cause any trouble, then it's a one phone call to the Davenports, do I make myself clear?" Perry warned me and I glared at her.
"Okay, but let's just get one thing straight, Perry. I won't cause trouble if no one, including you, don't give me any trouble. Plus, I don't go to parties or skip school like some teens do," I retorted and I stood up and began to leave.
"Sit back down, young lady. I'm not finished with you yet," Perry exclaimed furiously and I stared her down. She gulped when she saw the intensity of my stare.
"Yeah, well I'm finished talking to you, Principal Perry," I said and I slammed the door shut. The secretary gave me my schedule, locker number and locker combination, before she sent me out of her office. I walked out of her office thinking about how today events would turns out.
I hope you guys liked this new chapter and please tell me what you guys think through your comments and reviews. Oh, and just warning you now that I'm not sure when I'll be able to update this story again because of schoolwork and because I'm also busy with my other fanfictions too. Bye!
