Phoenix Drop High: Secrets In Highschool {re-continued}

Chapter 21

Previosuly:

"W-was it something I said...?" Laurance asked, seeming afraid of the answer.

"N-no!" I waved my hands in front of my face. "Your question caught me off of guard, that's all!"

"O-oh..."

"Anyways..." Travis spaced. "We're here now." The school definitely looked bigger this time than it did last time. While pulling my rucksack fully onto my bag, I smiled.

"First day," I mumbled. "Here we go."

***

Aphmau's P.O.V

I was feeling more nervous than I was the last time {probably because my writing was terrible last time lmao. well, it still is but meh}, probably because I know what's going to happen, unless it's all changed. 

"Aph!" Laurance called. "Ya' coming?" I must have spaced out again.

"Huh?" I called back, chasing after them. "Sorry!" My face scrunched up slightly at a foul smell, but I shook it off. "I space off a lot."

"Noted." They all said in unison. Nodding, we began to walk the halls. Autopilot took over and I walked over to my locker. 

"Uh, Aph?" Laurance asked, looking at me with confusion. I quickly turned around and felt something, inside of my head, slap me. I winced and so did Mental-Jess, or Lady Jessica, as Mari and Chloe call her {Mental-Jess is the voice/entity that talks/acts back to Chloe and Mari. Everything that she feels/hears, Jess does. Gonna be abbreviating her to LJ, and when she's speaking, the writing will be underlined as she's the mental speech for Jess. Confusing, yes, but shush, my story ;-;}, when I felt something hit the inside on my skull. LJ have been one of them facepalming me, mentally.

"Aph? You okay?" Travis's tone sounded guininly concerned for once. He must have noticed me wince, not that it was on purpose or anything.

"Y-yeah," I stammered. "I-I'm fine."

"Why you always lying~?" I heard Mari sing. Feeling LJ groan and roll her eyes, I giggled.

"Aph?" This time, Dante was the one to speak up. "What's so funny?" LJ must have facepalmed again because I felt something hit the inside of my skull again. I bit down on my lip to stop myself from groaning or flinching.

"N-nothing!" I squeaked, sighing to myself, turning around to face them again. "I'm fine, just a bit flustered, I guess."

"Okay..." All of their faces were scrunched up with confusion. I sighed, once more, only a bit louder and more noticeable.

"So, what lesson have you got first?" I checked my schedule; maths?! That can't be right, it's meant to be Creative Writing like last time!

"Maths can't be right..." I mumbled, staring down at the piece of paper in confusion.

Garroth looked confused. "Is there a problem...?"

"In a way..." I looked up, scrunching up the paper in my fist. "It appears I have maths first. When, actually, last ti--" I stopped myself before being able to say anything else. I felt something rising up in my throat. I gulped it back down, instantly regretting it due to the bitterly disgusting after taste. My face scrunched up and I sighed, getting my water bottle out of my bag. Just realising it was still in, I took out the last earphone and I shoved them both back into my skirt's pocket. I took a sip of my water.

"Aphmau!" I heard a somewhat deep voice yell. Snapping my head back round, I faced the person that had shouted, Laurance.

"Oh my, I am so sorry!" I waved my hands in an apologetic manner. "I spaced out, again, didn't I?"

He nodded. "Mhhm."

I felt my smile drop as I glanced down at the ground. "I do that a lot, I'm sorry."

Dante chuckled. "We know, you told us." 

I nodded, but more in confusion than agreement. "I-I did."

He nodded. "You did."

"I need to get out of here..."

||Welp, sorry it's late! >~<||||Anyways, it's here now!||||Stay weird peeps, bai~!||
