Chapter 5

In the morning I was awaken by my older sister, Phoenix. She wasn't too happy this morning. After waking me up she stormed out the room while cursing underneath her breath. When I looked at the snail clock by my bed, I realize I slept through it again! Quickly I staggered to get ready for school. This time I was able to get a ride to school with my siblings. Then after I went to my locker I felt my sixth sense screaming at me from all over the place. Carefully I peeked to my right and left and saw some teachers, but they didn't seem angry or searching, so what could my sixth sense be screaming at me?

I sighed and quickly headed to my first class. Once I entered, Axel immediately greeted me and I forgot all about my sixth sense screaming at me.

"Good morning, Alicia. Do you need any help with those blueprints?" he offered. Before I could answer, Axel carefully grabbed all the blueprints from my hand and walked it over to my table. I smiled as to how he could be a gentleman.

"Thank you Axel for helping me." I thanked.

"(Smiles) No problem, but I should really be the one thanking you. After gym yesterday I was getting praised by everyone because of that last minute kick you helped me with."

"(Smiles, but really isn't too happy) you're welcome, it took a lot of calculations in my head and precision to make it happen." After a moment of silence, Franky came in shouting something but I lost a few of his words since I was still feeling in love. Before I knew it Franky dragged me away from Axel and pushed some new blueprints in front of me.

"Franky, what exactly am I doing again?" I asked.

"We're starting from scratch because Heart pirates over there took our original design!" Franky angrily explained.

"Who are the Heart pirates?"

"They're Law's crew and a lot of his crew likes to steal other's idea!"

"Are you sure about that?"

"Yes, if you looked at what they have done right now it's exactly what we have but nicer and neater!" I sighed because if we were going to start from scratch that means I'm going have to do more furious writing and my hand is going to hurt all over again. From when class started to when class ended Franky had me write and draw a whole bunch of different parts again so my hand was in pain again. German was just a bore since Mr. Kuzan had to deal with some behavior issues the class just sat around talking. When Algebra came around Mr. Mihawk gave everyone a long annoying speech on how everyone failed the test except for me.

"Everyone should be a shame of themselves except for you Alicia! I handed out review packets for you to do, I gave you review days, I even told you what was going to be on the test, and yet almost all of you got an average or lower grade! I suggest either you get a tutor or look things over because I'm going to give you the same kind of test in a week. If you fail that then I don't even know what to do." Mr. Mihawk stressed. After that we had half of the period to talk and I was crowded by Penguin, Shachi, and Law.

"I can't believe you were the only one who passed the test with a solid A! Do you think you can tutor us three?" Shachi boasted. I was shocked that Shachi would make a quick decision about this without even consulting Law about it. I didn't answer because I was afraid Law might disagree right after I agreed.

"When do you think you can tutor us three? Saturday, Sunday, or maybe after school! How about it Law?" Penguin suggested. Law sighed and sat down beside me trying not to make eye contact. I notice Law was doing that because he started to blush with embarrassment and he didn't want me to see it. I smiled took out my planner to see when I could tutor them.

"Well I can't tutor you guys tomorrow or this weekend, but I can start today after school at my house." I declared.

"I guess I can come over today after school." Law said. Penguin and Shachi then cheered and smiled. Soon I felt someone standing behind me and when I turned around I was greeted by a very unhappy face by a red head boy.

"Seems like you got a pretty, smart tutor, Trafalgar, are you going to be studying or other wise." The red head boy mocked. I was a bit disgusted by the meaning of else wise that I literally wanted to trip him, but I didn't have the anger to do so.

"Shut up, Eustass-ya. At least I'm going to be doing better than you on the next test." Law countered.

"Alicia, why are you even hanging out with Trafalgar? He's just a sorry no good asshole. You shouldn't be wasting your time with him. He'll get you nowhere in life. He can't even get my name right. It's Kid, why don't you tutor me instead after school?"

"Get out of here, Eustass-ya. Alicia, don't listen to him, he's the type of asshole that's just going to use you and leave you."

"Look how's talking now, Trafalgar. Wasn't it you who broke that innocent girl's heart a while back? If you're going to be talking thrash like that you shouldn't be describing yourself while you're doing so." Before I knew it Law was red with anger and Kid was filled with joy for making Law angry. This wasn't good because I was right in the middle of the two of them and if anyone was to start fighting, I'd be right in the line of fire. I had to do something so neither of them would start fighting. So I stood and held the two of them back from each other.

"Listen up! If anyone's going be fighting about each other, you better not do it in front of me especially if it's going to be trash talk! Now if anyone wants to me to tutor them after school I'll happily tutor you at my house after school! But I won't tolerate anyone fighting!" I announced. For a long time there was silence throughout the entire class and everyone was just staring at me. Then moments later, the bell rang and everyone left in a hurry.

I was a bit relieve that nobody asked me why I had to shout or what I meant by trash talk. The day went by fast after what happened in math. Before I knew it, school ended and I walked home with Law, Shachi, Penguin, Bepo, Luffy, and all his friends. Once we got to my house everyone was definitely astound by the size of my house. Well what else were they suppose to expect from a girl who comes from a rich family? Surprisingly I came home earlier than my brothers and sisters even though I walked instead of getting drove home by the butler.
