Chapter 4: Dark and Different
POV Sophie
When Sophie woke up the next morning, it was 6:00. She remembered that school started at 7:00.
Anna was already dressed and ready. Sophie went to get dressed.
POV Fitz
Fitz quickly got up and ready in a green shirt and jeans.
Biana was also up, flouncing around in a pretty dress with purple flowers.
The two said goodbye to Heather and walked out. Sophie, Dex, Keefe, and Anna were waiting for them.
Fitz gasped when he saw Sophie.
Alone among the colors of her friends, Sophie was wearing a grey tee-shirt and black jeans.
Anna had a blue tank top and jeans, with a yellow sweater that matched her hair.
Keefe had a batman shirt and leggings.
Dex had a shirt that said 'I was born this awesome' on it with black jeans.
Sophie...
Fitz felt like he had gone back in time. She was wearing the very same grey tee as the day he found her, with black pants. Her iPod was in her pocket, and her eyes were on the sidewalk, her mouth set in a firm line.
It bothered Fitz. A lot.
She looked at him before he could speak.
"Fitz,"
"Sophie," he said.
"Fitz, this is what I'm wearing. This is what I need to wear."
"Sophie, but-but-this is ridiculous!"
"Please, Fitz!" Sophie cried. "Please don't make this any harder for me."
He froze.
"Fiiiiiiiinnnnneeeee."
The others, who had been pretending not to watch, sprang back to life and they walked to the bus stop.
Anna tried to explain the bus, but by the time the bus pulled up, Keefe wanted to fill it with chocolate milk and Dex wanted to make it into a bat mobile for Keefe.
(Time skip to school)
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Okay, you guys, let me tell you a secret:
I AM NOT IN HIGH SCHOOL. I DO NOT KNOW HOW HIGH SCHOOL WORKS. I WILL NOT BE ADDING ANY CUSSING OR ANYTHING INAPPROPRIATE FOR MY AGE GROUP. THANK YOU. Read on :)
When Fitz got of the bus, it was ready to fly away, thanks to Dex, and covered in milk, thanks to Keefe.
When everyone was out, Sophie and Anna took one look at the gang and dragged them in opposite directions.
Sophie grabbed Fitz and Keefe's arms and dragged them into the school and down the hall in front of them, then switched halls three times before she stopped at a hall with a lot of doors.
She opened one and shoved Fitz in, left Keefe outside, and walked in after him.
"Hi, Mrs..." Sophie began.
"Mrs. Bella." The teacher answered.
"Hi, Mrs. Bella. I was told to show this new student, Fitz Hunter, to his class."
Mrs. Bella nodded, and Sophie left Fitz to get settled.
(Note: I know for a fact that the high school in my town does not use lockers. This high school won't either.)
Fitz sat down uncertainly with his back pack on the back of his chair, and Mrs. Bella continued her lesson.
Suddenly, the girl next to him handed him a slip of paper.
He unfolded it, and was surprised to see a note.
Hi, Fitz. My name's Lisa. I sit next to u.
I think ur really cute, so here's my #:
(A scramble of numbers and dashed followed.)
Meet me after school under the willow tree on Claire St.
-LS (Lisa Sprout) ;)
He stuffed the note under his desk and tried not to think about it. Girls kept glancing his way longingly.
