Not Your Romeo & Juliet

Chapter 12

Skylar~

About a month and a couple weeks pass by since first arriving to Scarlet Rose. Within this time, I manage to get my room arranged and set up how I like it. Finally, I have a couch, a TV, and a couple other random things. I also manage to get my bike shipped over and was currently happily sitting in the student parking lot. Now, everything was unpacked and I've really settled in, adjusting to the new lifestyle.

However, my habits remain the same. I continue to sleep with whoever I felt like and it was almost too easy to the point of being boring. Sex was nice but the girls here made it way too easy. Nothing was a challenge in my eyes nor was anything very interesting. It morphed into a ranking game of how clingy a girl would be after I told her to leave in the morning.

The routine of trouble started up slower than usual but nonetheless it was hell for the teachers. Whether it was breaking the hearts of anyone who crosses my path, skipping classes for no reason, skipping to have sex with girls, skipping to explore the town, flat out falling asleep in classes, annoying the teachers in any way imaginable, and the occasional party when I feel like it. The downside to that was being sent off to see Collin Winters on more than one occasion. Seeing as he was somewhat personally requested to keep an eye to me, I went to him rather the Dean whenever I was in trouble. Only a couple occasions so far did he just send me to the Dean's office.

Anytime I end up in his office, the meetings go something something like this:

Collin with a sigh: I assume you know why you're in here?

Me mockingly: Yes, yes. Let's skip the boring lecture this time shall we? We both know I don't like you nor will my joyful habits change. I also can't really get kicked out thanks to my very kind parents.

Collin with a scowl now: Watch it Evans. You could still get thrown out of this school.

Me with a cheery smile: Then why haven't you? It'd be much easier to throw me out than keep giving me second chances. Although at this point it's been like ten second chances so...

Collin all grumpy now: Shut it Evans. Stop causing problems for the teachers.

Me getting up with a smirk: I don't cause my English teacher issues. So there, one teacher who likes me. Oh! And I think the Dean likes me too.

Collin rolling his eyes: You're delusional. Whatever, get out of my office. I don't want to see you in here again.

Me scoffing: That's not happening and you know it pretty boy. Later Collin!

So yeah, fun stuff. It's amazing Sophia remains a pretty good friend with me even after witnessing my terrible behavior. In addition to that, Paris and I continue to get along famously. Any chance I get to tease or challenge her authority, I do. She sticks to her claim of knowing everything about me and I take great enjoyment using that against her. I do occasionally feel bad, mostly because poor Felix was the one who has to deal with an angry Paris after she storms off. On more than one occasion he's shyly asked me to stop pissing off the student body president, but I can't really promise the nice guy anything.

When I'm not spending time aggravating Paris, I'm pissing off the most popular girl in the school. My friendship, if it can be described that way, with Vanessa is weird. I don't really like her much, she is annoyingly sarcastic and more often than not bitchy to levels I can't even describe. It is, however, fun to flirt with her and watch her reaction.

It's now the day before Thanksgiving and I didn't even going to bother going home for the holiday. It's pointless, plus I highly doubt that I would be welcome anyway. It's not like the wounds were fresh anymore, but neither of my parents were going to let go of the anger and resentment towards me anytime soon. Getting kicked out of that last school was just the last straw for them. Either way it's not like I'd suffered too, no of course not. I'm just the black sheep, just the scapegoat.
