"And it seems we have a new student today. I'm sorry I wasn't aware we were getting a new student. Would you like to introduce yourself?"
"Seriously Mr Smith?" I shot him a look.
"You know me?" Mr Smith looked surprised as he leaned his backside against the front of his desk.
"Yeah, you've been my teacher since year seven" I snapped back and sat down in a free seat in the middle of the class.
Mr Smith looked confused as ever and student were looking between Mr Smith and I, to try connect the dots.
"I'm so sorry but I-"
"Far out! Angelica Collins!" I interrupted and rolled my eyes at him
Murmurs filled the class instantly.
"Angelica?" Mr Smith said in disbelief and surprise.
"I'm a bit offended Sir" I said mockingly
"But you're dead" Mr Smith said with wide eyes
"Seriously sir?! You believed all the rumours?" I scoffed when he didn't reply.
'Guess Mr Hotness is better looking than smart' My wolf laughed at her own joke.
"I heard you got transported to Australia for being in possession of drugs" A guy at the back of the class said.
I turned around to give him a look. Jock.
"Why would I go to Australia?" I asked slowly in case his small brain couldn't register fast words.
"Because it's surrounded by sea, so there's no way to leave. Duh!" He laughed and fisted pumped another jock sitting next to him.
"What about the people that live in Australia?" I asked
"Pft what about them?" He smirked back and put an arm around the seat next to him which happened to have a bimbo looking girl sitting in it. Isn't it too cold to wear shorts that short?
"How do you think Hugh Jackman or Rebel Wilson got here?" I asked with a cocked eyebrow.
His expression went blank with confusion. Good thing he's a stereotypical dumb jock, because I wouldn't of thought of a comeback after that quick enough.
Flicking my hair over my shoulder I turned back to the front of the class. 'Oh's and 'burns' went through the class and I couldn't help but smirk.
"Settle down class!" Mr Smith yelled over the noise and waited for the class to quieten down with his arms crossed over his chest. Then he looked over back at me. "It's good to have you back Mrs Collins"
"It's good to be back Sir" I smiled showing all my teeth.
(Remember Angelica lies when she smiles showing all her teeth)

"How was class?" Danny asked when I came to our old usual sitting place. A table under the big tree on the hill. This place was so good, you could basically see the entire school up here. A bonus was hardly anyone knew about this spot. No one wanted to climb the hill.
"Shit" I simply replied. "Do you know there was a rumour going around that I was deported to Australia for possession of drugs?" I asked sitting down.
"Australia?! That's a bit excessive don't you think?"
"I do think"
I opened my bag and pulled out two wraps and handed one to Danny.
"Naw!" Danny shrieked all of a sudden
"What?!" I looked up alarmed.
"You remembered!" Danny replied putting a hand over his heart.
"What?!" I asked in confusion
"You remembered Friday wrap day!" Danny said and took the wrap out of my hand.
"Of course I did Danny. I've been bring you wraps every Friday for nine years of our life's" I laughed
"I know but after a year I thought you would have forgotten or something" Danny said unwrapping the aluminium foil from around the wrap.
"I could never forget you Danny" I said cheekily.
Suddenly my ears pricked and I could hear footsteps. "Incoming" I whispered.
Danny looked confused for a second but soon caught on by what I meant and looked behind me. I turned and saw a group of boys and girls coming up the hill towards us. Jocks and cheerleaders. Not the crowd you want to be on the bad side of and also the crowd I don't want here at the moment. Especially when I need to catch up on a years worth of life without Danny.
"Hey guys, what can we help you with?" I asked politely.
"That's a mighty big hill you have to walk up to eat lunch for. It's exhausting!" One blonde jock said.
"Aren't you on the footy team?" I asked snarkily.
Unlike the dumb guy back in Ancient History. This guy caught on to the insult straight away. Smart boy.
"Hey gurl" A platinum blonde smiled and came and sat besides me.
"Uh hey" I replied unsure
"Don't worry we don't bite" another said and sat down next to Danny.
'I do' My wolf growled
"What you doing tonight?" The one next to Danny asked flirtingly.
"Uh I have a feeling your about to tell me" Danny replied eyeing the girl unsure.
A high pitch laugh pierced the air. Making me flinch with my enhanced hearing. She flipped her head back and pushed her boobs forwards.
"Oh my god, your so funny!" She laughed.
One of the jocks came and sat besides me.
"Hey I'm Adam" he smirked pressing his thigh against mine.
"Angelica" I replied and moved over so I was closer to the blonde girl than 'Adam'.
"That's a beautiful name" Adam said moving closer
Meanwhile the platinum blonde was starting a conversation with and uncomfortable looking Danny. So he was no help.
"Thanks" I replied.
The two other jocks came and sat around me while the other cheerleaders latched themselves onto Danny.
"What are you doing tonight?" The blonde 'smarter' jock from before asked taking the spot of the girl who was sitting next to me but moved to the other side of the table to sit with Danny.
"Probably hanging out with Danny" I replied and nodded my head in the direction of Danny.
"Wanna come to a party instead?" The blonde asked.
Well that caught me off guard. Never have Danny and I been to a party, we were never the kind to get invited.
"Wanna come to my party tonight sugar?" I heard the platinum blonde ask.
"Uh... Sure" Danny replied unsure.
"Uh yeah, count us in" I said turning my attention back to the boys.
"Great" Adam smiled. "Dress to impress, cause I'd like to see that body in something tight" My stomach churned and I had to fight a gag reflex.
"Sorry, I'm spoken for" I said before my brain could catch on to what I was going to say.
'What the fuck Angelica?! "I'm spoken for!" Who the hell is your spokesman then!' My wolf yelled in frustration.
"Oh, and who might this lucky guy be?" Adam asked raising his eyes brow but still leaned forwards to we were touching.
"Me"
My eyes quickly shot up and were met with Danny's determined blue eyes glaring at Adam.
"So I suggest you scoot back over" Danny added gesturing towards Adam pressing up against me.
Adam raised his hands in defeat and laughed as he scooted over. "Hey, no problem, right mate?" Adam asked when he was at a safe distance.
"As long as you don't give me one" Danny replied coldly.
"Alright we'll see you tonight, I'll text you the address" Adam said and held out his hand.
Not seeing any way around this I quickly finger scanned my thumb and gave my phone to Adam. Smirking Adam took the phone and typed his phone number in.
"See you later" Adam got up and left with the rest of his group. But not before giving me a flirtatious wink.
