Fifty four- Under thier eyes

Fifty four- Under thier eyes
Aria's POV

It has become known to everyone but my dearest friends that I am scheduled to fight with Marissa on Monday and no one wants to drop it. It is either people are looking at me with pity for my impending death or joy that someone is finally getting rid of me,both sets of people are just nothing but pain in my ass. I haven't heard from Meredith since I left her office which is adding to the fear and tension in my heart. She assured me that she would do her possible best to get me out of it and we are about having our last class for the day yet nothing from her.

The bell rang signalling it was time for the last class. I had not seen neither of my friends for the whole day including Lyra, it is like they all chose to be angry with me all at the same time and at the worst times too. I strolled in a little grateful I din’t have to face any more trainings this afternoon.

“Mr.Patrick” I called out quietly before walking further into the class, my own little way of greeting. He barely looked my way but I am sure he heard me, he always does. The class was still empy as everyone was either on their way here or ditching exhausted from today’s trainings but I know better than that. Ditching only means having to go over to Kael’s or going home and I am dreading both right now.

I took a seat at the furthest end of the class where I could avoid everyone and still hear all I need to.

“You have some nerves,little one” Mr. Patrick suddenly spoke up startling me to my very core. In all my years in this academy and even before I came,Mr.Patrick has always been knows to be the one professor who would never speak to a student. As long as it is not tine for him to lecture us then dont expect to hear anything from him. It was creepy at first but eventually we all got used to it.

“Excuse me?” I spoke up doing a horrible job at hiding my shock at him talking to me.

“A fight with the Gamma heir? That is just foolish if you ask me”

Of cohrse he would jump into conclusions.

“Whover did it didnt make it seen like I have an option” I said back my shock being replaced with a form of disgust i didn't think I would have have ever felt for a man like Mr. Patrick. If this js how he easilybtales in wjagever he jears then I guess i undertand why he doesn't speak now.

“Whoever did it?” He finally looked at me his face expressionless.

I chuckled to mhself not bothering to answer him as students started flock in,he quickly adjusted himself like he didn't just make me see that he is one of the 99 percent that believes rumours over knowing the truth.

I kept my head down as more students strolled in,trying to avoid the hard stare Mr.Patrick kept giving me and the hatred everyone practically shot my way with thier eyes.

One more year and I will be out of here. I woukd go anywhere that isn't here and start afresh even it means going into the human world to act like one of them. I always had hopes on my mate coming to save me but that doesn't seem like it is happening so everything is on me nkw and I would not fail mhself.

"Bitch" somone spat my way,the rest of her friends bursting into laughter like what she did was really funny.

The class filled up quickly and in no second Mr.Patrick began his class but all my focus had gone down the drain even before he started. Lyra was two seats behind me and everything in me wanted to go over to her and know what the problem was but I can't afford such attention. She had looked at me with so much anger in her eyes when she walked in hit their was also a question in her eyesblike she didn't understand something and I was the only ome who coukd clarify her on that which got me even more confused.

"Aria" Mr.Patrick suddenly called out snapping me out of my thoughts. After what just happened one woukd think he would let me be.

I looked up just as everyone in ths class thr ed to face me all with different looks in tvjer eyes but they all mirrored their various ill feelings towards me.

"You are needed at the Principal's office" he said causing the whole class to break into chatters and murmurs,everyone jumping into conclusions as usual.

"Okay" I mummured,quickly packing my things nack into my bag. This better be good news...

I turned to look at Lyra and she was already looking at me, confusion on her face. I guess she has no idea of what went down this morning then. I pressed my lips into a thin line as I turned away from her,it is only a matter of time before she hears everything and then she woukd jump into her own conclusions just like everyone else.
