Chapter 2
During the whole ride Mr. old guy told me about things I should know about S.A. I was lucky I didn't fall asleep, because if I did he might have thrown me out of the car.
"Steadyway Academy is the most prestigious school in the America to date, rivaled only by Bellcraft's School for Boys and Girls. Steadyway and Bellcraft have been rivals for seventeen years, since Bellcraft was founded. We house 986-now eighty seven students. As I said before it is a very prestigious school, and most do not make the cut. Students must pay a yearly fee to continue to learn from Steadyway, save the students who get in with athletic or academic scholarships." Translation: you have to be rich, a genius, or the next Michael Phelps to get in.
"You will have to alarm the Student council president, if you will make any minor or major changes in the school, so they may schedule a date to inform the student body. There are in fact rules at this school; we have a strict dress code, and have a strong disciplinary..." blah, blah, blah...
I missed Bitsie. She was a lot more fun than this old prune.
"Miss Ross?"
"Hmm?"
He sighed. "You'll be rooming in the Crystal Tree Dorm, as all of the others are full. Your room number is 676, good day." He seemed happy that I was out of his hair for the moment.
Well that wasn't fair! The crusty old sourpuss left me all alone, and I didn't even know where the dorm room was! Grrr....
I pouted a bit, but then sighed and decided to just look for it. When I saw a girl sitting down painting her nails lime green -which looked really good on her-I sighed with relief.
"Um excuse me?" she looked up and smiled. "Yes?"
"could you help me find the Crystal tree dorm?" she nodded, the blew on her nails.
"I'm Veronica DePaul, nice to meet you."
"I'm Pumpkin." Well that sounded...odd. Her with her cool de pool name and me with my pie. Mmmm...Pie. I'd like to take a bite of cherry pie, or better yet banana cream pie...
"Pumpkin?"
"Yes, please." I answered but then giggled "sorry I was thinking about pie, what was it that you said?"
She laughed. "I was asking if it was your first day here."
"Yup, I'm in my second year." She looked at me.
"What? I can't be small and old at the same time?" she smiled, and then I realized she was really pretty. She was tan-booooo...---with cherry red hair that was up in pony tail with a few lovely curls escaping, from it. She also had shining hazel eyes, and a tall curvy figure. The world must hate me.
"Your beautiful." She blushed.
"Thank you, your beautiful too." I think I would come to like her.
"Are you in the Crystal Tree Dorm?" I asked, she brushed off the dirt from her navy blue uniform skirt. The uniform here was really cute, the skirt was short and blue, and it came with dark knee high stockings, she wore her collared shirt without her jacket though, but it was nice. I could live with it.
"Yes, there are four dorms, one of them is the White Peach dorm, where theirs one small room for two students-this is an all girls only dorm. The second is the Ever Clear dorm; it's the same as W.P only it's an all boys. The third is our dorm, it's a large loft with two bedrooms, a living room and a small kitchen, it's shared between three or four students, it's all girls, the fourth is the Knight dorm it's the same as our but it's an all boy's dorm as well." cool.
"What room are you in?" I asked, hoping it was mine.
"676, and you?" Yay! Maybe the world liked me a little after all.
"Wow. Sucks for you." But she laughed, and put a sympathetic arm around my shoulders.
"What??"
"Every dorm has a tradition that a newcomer has to obey. Out tradition is to have the newbie sneak into the Knight dorms and retrieve a pair of underwear from the room we choose."
I hate you world.
"What happens if you don't do it?"
"That's never happened before. You just have to...but tradition is if someone doesn't complete the task you completely ignore their existence and put itching power in their blankets, and fart on their pillows... you know the usual." Eek! I didn't want anybody's fart juice in my face while I slept!
"Don't worry we'll pick a good room." Veronica said and we finally got there. It looked like a small white building with glass doors and large glass windows.
She lead me all the way up to a hallway full of doors with numbers on them until we got to 676.
It was huge! Well... sort of. It was like a really nice apartment. From what I saw there were two other girls sitting on pink and orange bean bags.
"This is Pumpkin, she's our new roommate." Veronica ruffled my hair and I felt at that moment we could be really great friends.
"I'm Felicity Gerard," the girl said, "This is Hannah Babbitt."
Felicity, was tall and stick thin with her soft ebony hair cut into a fashionable bob, Hannah was slender, but had curves I needed a lot more than she did..booo...She also had golden colored hair and pretty green eyes.
"Well, you can share a room with Hannah, because me and Veronica already share ours together."
Hannah smiled and showed me the room. It had pink walls, two fluffy beds and a poster of a cute bunny.
"We have a lot in common." I said and she laughed.
"Yea, I'm a girly girl." I didn't bring any of my stuff, because the old guy-Mr. Peterman-said he'd have them delivered by the end of tonight. I asked Hannah if I could barrow a pair of her P.J's, but all she had was a tight ass pair of booty shorts and a tiny tank top that didn't go past my belly button. I didn't mind because, everyone else was walking around in almost the same thing. Soo...
We all watched cartoons for a bit, but then we found Harold and Kumar 2. I choked on my popcorn when the cockmeat sandwich part came up... by the end of it, Veronica stood up and said, "ok, it's time. I'm really sorry to do this to you Pumpkin, but you have to go through with our tradition."
Oh...the underwear thing!?
"um..." I took a deep breath. Don't be a pussy! "ok, let me just change..."
"I'm sorry, orders are you have to go in your pajama's, we all did it."
Hannah smiled, "I was wearing a red see through night dress, with nothing underneath. Imagine how I felt!"
Wow, that made me feel at least a little better.
"ok fine, I'm going in!" I felt like some sort of lousy Austin powers, as Hannah, Felicity, and Veronica lead me to the Knight dorm. It was huge, almost an exact replica to our dorm. Dam it was soo freezing! I shivered.
"what dorm number?"
"337." Hannah answered, looking apologetic.
"Who lives there?" they wouldn't answer me, they just sort of looked guilty...oh crap it's some sort of ass or a perv or some sort of creepy stalker nerd.... Oh my that rhymed!
"Ok, good luck!"
"Hey wait a minute how do I get in?" I couldn't just waltz in willy nilly!
"Use the back door, don't worry you won't get caught, the dorm manager's a student so he doesn't are who sneaks in or out." Well that was convenient.
I had only a little trouble as I sneaked upstairs. I looked super retarded, I was walking like a crab hoping no one would see, and if anyone had I would have stabbed myself in the gut. Jesus this wasn't a good start at my new school. Sneaking into the boys dorm to get a pair of undies from some dude was the creepiest thing I had ever thought to do. Bitsie was die laughing if she could see me now! Heck if this were her in her PJ's sneaking crab-like-syle- into a boy's dorm to steal a pair of his boxers or briefs or...ugh...ew. What if that guy only wore speedo's, or some sort of banana hammock! Ugh what if he shat his pants a couple of times and left the crusty terd the dry in his closet?!!!
Oh god, something is wrong with me where the hell do I get these idea's?!
I opened the door slowly. Wow, this guy was really stupid, if he left his door unlocked.
I was biting my lip hoping he wiped his ass because I was NOT touching no skid marked undies that's for sure, you can fart on my pillow and put itching powder in my blankets but there was no way in hell I was touching something with...spillage.
I heard the faint sound of breathing, and rustling cloth. I could not afford to make a mistake now! I tip toed carefully over to a dresser and opened the first dwarer slowly....I sighed in relief. Regular boxers, clean boxers, I chose a black one-
"what the hell are you in here?" ...
...
...
I slowly turned my head, holding a pair of his undies, looking as guilty as if I had been caught masturbating .
"what the..." he looked me over. "do you have some sort of fetish? Does stealing a pair of underwear get you hot or something?"
"wh-what?!N-No, I was..I was just...! I'm new here! And this was some sort of ritual or rite of passage or something!" it was quiet for a minute, and then he turned on the lights.
Holy.Balls.
He was hot. He was smexy. He was delicious! Oh my, oh my, if I wasn't caught red handed with a pair of his panties than I would have drooled and gurgled like a retard! He had golden colored hair, spiked this way and that, with piercings in his ears and snake bites, he had this lovely pair of blue green eyes that looked kind of..dangerous.
Goo goo gah gah...
