A Comfortable Silence (Jayxreader)

In School?!

Signing another file. I slowly looked at the rest of the dreadful pile of documents. It's hard to tell how many I had left but it I'd definitely be taking these with me to school. Everything's written in Japanese so hopefully there's no one in class who knows it.

My door opened, "Mom we gotta go, Naroo said we will be late"

"Mm? Why does he care, he doesn't go to our school"

"I don know"

"That's fine Pan". I gathered the unsigned documents and put them in my bag "I'll ask, and to say we will faster say We'll"

"Wheel? Like a car thingy?"

"No that's a tire" I held my hand out for him "We'll is the same as we will, but when talking about a car tire you say tire or wheel"

"Ok, I might understand"

I let him drag me along to the hallway till he let go to go put his shoes on. Naroo walks up to me, a bag over his shoulder, grinning like a freak.

He tapped my shoulder, his grin widening "guess what" he chuckled lightly.

".....What?"

"I joined your school"

"WHA-..... what? You're 19 Naroo, why?"

"I have nothing to do and with you, Bella, Pan at school and Natasha at work I get bored here". He flicked his jacket collar a little higher "And I've almost relapsed like 15 times, I don't want Anne to know about that"

"I knew you've been being weird, no one takes rehab well"

"Honesty" he nodded "It's hard to to throw up on you right now"

"I'd say bring a doctor's note but you are one"

He gave a wheeze for a laugh "jokes.... such good jokes.....

You suck"

"I know, trust me, I know it more then you"

We both just stared at each other. I turned to Pan "ready?". He smiled at me sweetly, "Yep, come on!" He began pulling us with him "Bella! Come on!". He shouted as he walked, holding Naroo and I's hands.

Bella walked out from the kitchen, two pieces of toast in each hand. I noticed new, pearl white bandages on her artificial hand.

"Why cover you hand if it's not injured?"

"I think it'd be real surprising if someone who seems hurt punches you with a metal..... steel?" She shrugged "Hand"

I nodded I agreement. I'd be surprised at least, that would mess with them mentally too in a way. She walked behind us, Pan leading us. We bunched in the elevator and awkwardly waited for it to ding and set us free.

Lucky it didn't feel like we were in there long. Naroo lifted my keys in front of me, "Can I drive?".

I gave him a bitter grin "No, passenger seat for you depresso"

"Whatever that sounds like a superhuman name anyway"

I sat in the driver's seat, internally rolling my eyes, I look in the rear view mirror. Quickly turning to look in the back seat at Lucius I point at him then all the others.

"Who brought Lucy, eh? Snitch right now"

"I did" Naroo clarified "I listed him as an emotional support animal, for me, you don't have to worry"

"I thought your emotional support animal was alcohol"

"On my first say Y/n?"

I gave him a touché kind of look, I start my car and start going towards the oh so wonderful school. I wonder why schools are so weird, so much stuff we should learn in school is turned into colleges to make you spend more money, and then if you don't go to a college you can have some jobs then usually pay less then jobs that don't require college.
