Chapter 56 I need to make her pay
Elara.

“That’s a hickey and we are all going to ignore it.” Nathan asked and I didn’t speak.

“When you kissed Han, did I ever ask you why you could not walk for days or did I pretend it was just a kiss like you still claim.”

“Now you got him.” Paul said and I smiled.

I was still  to take care of my art project, I didn’t know what my truth was and I have had the best nights with Landon, but there is one thing biting my ass.

Zara.

I wanted to teach her a lesson, something to make her stay the fuck away form both of us, I have warned her a couple of times and she never listens.

“Elara.” Clara yelled. “I called you a couple of times, what’s wrong?”

“Quick question, if you have a boyfriend/ girlfriend and their ex is constantly bothering them and sending you condescending pictures of both of them, to make you fight, what will you do, without getting suspended or even getting suspected, I’m talking something huge.” I breathed out.

“Zara sent you pictures of her and Landon.” Clara asked and I nodded.

“I have an idea. It’s a long shot and it’s bad, but this will keep Zara busy and away and if you think about it, we may be doing her a great help.” Paul said,

Paul always has devious ideas and I was certain this is one of them, by the time he told me what it was? I knew I wanted it done, if she was in my shoes she some hesitate and I have to focus, I can’t get things done if she keeps butting in, maybe this will teach Dylan to stay the fuck away from me.

Zara will be out of my life forever

“How do we even?”

“I have a guy, I take care of it and don’t worry about it.” Nathan said and I nodded.

“Clara are you in?”

“While we are at it, can we plot something to make Javier pay for all the pain he made me go through.” She asked and I nodded.

I have waited for this for long, and when it comes to Javier we will take our sweet time.

I thought school will be great until I got called into the principal’s office and my friends assured me they will take care of things.

“Miss Quinn.”

“Prince Heather.” I breathed out.

“You have a bright future Miss Quinn and I understand you are about to graduate early but you can’t skip school, you have been a good student and I was this close to calling your parents yet I didn’t.”

“Thank you.”

“Don’t thank me. They are meant to know what you are doing, yet I choose to cut you some slack Elara and I don’t want you to disappoint me, yes you have the grades but you can’t cut classes, it’s equally important, now I am not one to prey on my students  person life.”

This is about Landon.

Fuck.

“I got a call, you signed up for arts competition.” She stated and my eyes widened in surprise. “I am you principal and I know what my students are up to, especially when this comes with scholarship, they tend to ask question from schools to understand the student, because this is not only about  your talent but also your behavior, no one wants a trouble kid no matter how talented you are.”

I froze.

I felt a wave of chill run down my spine.

“What did you tell them?” I asked.

“Your parents took you to Vermont for medical school, to show you what’s it’s like to be a part of their world, I know they truly did that, they will never let you cut school for no good reason but sometimes tells me they have no idea about the arts competition.”

“Principal Heather-“

“Let me speak Elara, this is your life and I hoped you know what you are doing. The last thing the word needs is a doctor  that wanted nothing to do with the field, I told them the truth, you are an exceptional student, you are good and you are graduating early, I won’t lie, whatever is happening between you and your parents, fix it. Tell them the truth, this art thing is huge and something tells me you will win. I don’t  tell them a thing about it, like I said it’s your personal life.”

“Thank you.” I breathed out.

She has no idea what she has done for me, she helped me unknowingly, she didn’t meddle, she understood.

I felt a wave of relief wash over me.

I took a step away from the chair and toward  the door  

“I won’t cut class again, I promise, I will be here at  all times.”

“One last thing, you are a good kid and Hayes is not the right way to go, he has everything figured out for him, his father is strict and the last thing he needs is a relationship, if he finds out, your parents will find out. And it will get ugly, believe me I know this family, Mason was once a student too and I know the hell they put me through. You are smart. Don’t ruin it for yourself.” She said and I nodded.

A breath escaped my lips

“I say this because I care.” She stated and I nodded again. “We have a student like once in five years, you are a fighter and you will get everything you want if you understand there is a time for everything.” She stated and I nodded again.

I know that, she didn’t know Landon like I did

If she could find out about our relationship so easily, it won’t be long before his parents do, and mine, we have been reckless, we should have been even more careful.

We felt so much happiness, we forgot all about hiding it, we need to protect our relationship

Fuck.
