I had cobwebs in my hair and dust stains in my clothes that wouldn't ever come out. I know these passageways haven't been used in like… a year but that doesn't mean that every single spider has to make its home.
"You know Mrs Morgan," Joe Solomon said from behind. "When Gallagher academy returns back to normal, this passage way needs to be sealed up."
"Well, Mr Solomon. If this passage was blocked up then we wouldn't be able to get into the school would we?" I said with a grin on my face. I might get in trouble for talking to Joe like that but at that moment I didn't care.
I placed a hand on the wall when we were at the end but I instantly regretted it as a spider crawled up my arm and I had to flick it away. When I looked to the side Zach grinned slightly and helped me open the passageway which led into the hall of history.
The halls were eerily quiet and dark. The siren for the code black had gone off but the protection still stood. My own heart beat was too loud in the silence so I started walking, hearing my feet make the slightest of noise on the floor seemed to calm me, if only for a little while. As we reached my mother's office I knocked on the door the noise echoing. I opened the door and stared at my mother who looked at me with a really surprised look plastered on her face. My roommates Liz, Bex and Macey had their arms crossed over their chest staring with raised eyebrows.
"Hey," I said. "Sorry to drop in unexpectedly." I smiles awkwardly trying to make the mood light but I guess it did nothing. Zach and Mr Solomon entered the office and closed the door behind them. Joe went over to my mother and Zach and I sat down with my friends. Macey crossed her perfect legs over each other and let her arms go down to her side and leaned into the couch.
"So," she said "The cobwebs still a continuing look with you or is it a new trend I haven't seen yet?" I quickly put a hand on my hair to try getting all the cobwebs out when another spider decided to crawl onto my arm and I couldn't help myself, I jumped and nearly screamed like the girl I was.
"So," my mother said after a while. We all turned to look at her. I may not have mentioned this before but my mother IS THE BEST SPY EVER. So I didn't surprise me after she said "I guess you were the one to overhear my conversation whilst reading the daily local newspaper whilst drinking hot chocolate and waiting exactly 2 minutes before walking out of the café and following me back here"
I couldn't do anything but bow my head slightly and nod. She smiled slightly.
"Then that just makes what I'm going to say shorter and easier."
A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in ages. I didn't know what to do next before Christmas and for Christmas I had books which I'm still currently reading (The Iron Fey series. If you have not read them I suggest you go read them… like now) but I wanted to update before New Year. I'm also thinking off doing a Fan fiction for the iron fey series so if I do this will be updated less, but I don't know if I am yet as I don't have a story only 2 lines for the opening and some back story. Anyway, Hope you enjoyed your Christmas and Happy New Year review and tell me what you think?
