Family Secrets

Attempting The Escape

You ever get that one feeling when you smell something and it brings a memory to you? Well straight away when Professor Jarrett came towards me and William she smelt exactly like my mum's jumper I was wearing. She uses the same perfume my and I use? What a wanna be.

" Professor Paret, I would like to not share a room with this chick here".

In reality I didn't forget their names, I have to play it cool. You know? I can't just fit in with these nerds from Ravenclaw. Both Professor Jarrett and Candice were giving me a tour around the whole school. There were old pictures of people and aged paper letters hanging on the walls. The colour inside was dark blue. It's so unfashioned.

" Oh? And why is that Elizabeth?"

Professor Jarrett good-naturedly asked as I saw Candice shift her eyes around sighing silently.

" She seems a bit stuck up and bitc-".

" That is enough Elizabeth Jade Turner! I showed you my office, now go to it!"

She demanded whilst locking her eyes to mine. I saunter to her office, well I try to. All I was concentrating on was how old and poor the inside building was.

" Ahh. This is so stupid".

I mutter to myself as giving my forehead a massage from walking throughout the whole school.

" What the hell! Where am I?".

I find myself at a door with Professor J carved into a Golding block that is sealed at the very top of it. I clutch the door knob, try to turn it but found it to be locked

" Fine whatever. I'm out".

After sighing out of being sullen for a moment I roll my eyes and stop them at a giant unlocked window showing the view of the green grass and roads William's driver drive him home to. I must've been at the top of the building circling around. After all I didn't see any stupid stairs.

" Yes! My only escape from this stupid school".

I jump silently towards the window and began to observe the outside view and look for a ledge I can balance on to move across the whole building to the ground.

" Mission accomplished Lizzy".

I swing my leg over outside the window, one leg in the inside supporting my balance with my right leg out.

" Here we go. I'm going home".

I say tremulously. My arms push my body up as I use the top frame to hang on. My other leg swings out, standing on a thin ledge.

" I wouldn't do that if I were you".

Suddenly a British man accent makes me loose my thoughts.

" What? Yea this is hell. Go away".

I say to him. But he stands in the same position watching me. I take one step, then suddenly loose my balance. My foot slips off the ledge, my sweating hands slip off the top window frame and end up gripping onto the ledge I was balancing on.

" Give me your hand".

That same British boy pops his head out the window and shoots his hand to mine. His pretty tall, dark hair, dark eyes and a bit bulky.

" What! I'm gonna go for it and fall ok?!"

The boy sighs and shoots his other hand to me. The reason I wanted to fall was because I couldn't trust him. And he'll just bring me in the place I'm trying to prevent for being in.

" It's a three storey building! You'll never make it. Give me your hand. Trust me".

He finishes off. I don't dare to look down, that boy's hand was the only thing I want to look at in this situation.

" Promise you won't drop me!"

He leans over more touching my hand. Then he grabs it without the promise I want him to make. After all he did tell me to trust him. The boy then heaved me up as I hike with my legs pushing against the brick walls. As soon as I was standing on the ledge he grabbed my waist and hauled me inside. Both of us ended up to the ground.

" Are you mad!?"

He asked as both of us were panting.

" Your the one who goes to hell. Aka, HillCliff Boarding School".

I point my finger to the ground representing this school.

" You should never try to escape from here".

He told me still panting.

" Don't tell me what to do you pirate".

I answer back immediate with my right leg up, my arm leaning against my right knee, my left leg is crossed as I'm watching the boy trying to put up with the attitude I give towards him.

" Your tiny but heavy".

He said immediate then shot himself right off the ground.

" Excuse me? Who are you? Captain Jack Sparrow?"

" Grow up. Your in pirate country. There's British and English people all around you, get used to it".
