Bad Intentions Chapter 13
“So, you’re Vicki,” said a voice as I swiftly walked out of the principal’s office. I felt singled out, as everyone knew I was the new girl. But then, I guess they would all know each other and would be aware that I was a stranger. It was a little unbalancing though, when everyone knew who I was, but I didn’t know their names. After my brief encounter with Sarah, I didn’t know if that was a good or bad thing.I nodded. Too tired, hungry, and scared to speak.“No need to be nervous. Mr. Hawk called and said that I should show you your room and class. My name’s Claire Willis and like you, last year I was new too. So, I think that’s the reason he asked me to come and help you find your way around here. But, I bet you’re hungry, right?”What gave it away? I wondered.The big roaring sound that my stomach was making as she spoke?“Good. Let’s grab a quick lunch before we head to your room. Don’t worry, your things are there.”Her emerald eyes shone as she spoke and part of me was curious t

“You ready to go out and face the big Vogue world?”My nerves started to kick in as I’d finished up in the bathroom and walked out of a cubicle to look at myself in the mirror. I didn’t look anything like Claire. I’d thought the uniforms would put us on a level playing field, but they didn’t. I sprayed a spritz of the perfume Mom bought me for my last birthday and dropped it in my pocket. I might not look like a Vogue model, but I could smell like one. I’d put on the uniform left for me in my room and frowned a little. The uniform clearly didn’t fit. The buttons of my shirt were about to pop open, my butt could probably be seen if I bent down at a 45 degree angle, and as for the blazer? Well, it was on, but I didn’t know how much longer that would last. I felt as if I was about to turn into the Incredible Hulk and the last thing I wanted to do was face anyone, let alone Vogue people.“Are you sure that this is my uniform? I mean it’s not even my size. I can’t even breathe.”She reass
Bad Intentions Chapter 15
Mr. Hawk managed to get me to my room, my ruined clothes covered by his suit jacket, but he didn’t say a word. I was practically naked with only my Mickey Mouse panties and bra on my body. Oh, let’s not forget my shoes and my knee-high socks. I was completely embarrassed. Something that I’d never experienced before. Sure, I’d seen other kids in the school being bullied, questioned it and then been told ‘don’t get involved, or you’ll be next’ and that was enough for me to back away from it. But, I hadn’t been here a complete day and so far, it was a living nightmare. I thought about little George Burns, a comedienne from back in the day, having a sign saying ‘kick me’ on his back all day and being warned that if he removed it then he’d have a worse day the next day. It never stopped the bullying though, even though he wore the sign all day.He would have it on his back every single day and then still be bullied the next day and more. I felt like shit, remembering the many times I’d

I sighed as I woke up in the room, a bedroom that Mr. Hawk said that I could stay in for a few days. A few days to think it all over. How not to be bullied?Or how to live with being bullied?That part of the conversation we never covered, but then again, we didn’t say much about anything apart from him calling the school nurse. He’d told me after that I could move to another room, in the main house. His house. Mr. Hawk’s. That was two days ago. I’d been online, spoken to the girls and they’d told me to get the fuck out of here. They wished they’d been here to help me, and I felt the same way, but didn’t tell them that, there was no need to make them feel worse. I’d stayed in this room, to myself.Waiting.Waiting to leave. Not having the courage to tell Aunt Rose, let alone Uncle Graham about my fate. I just sent them both a text saying that the academy was hard, and I had a lot of studying to do. True, Mr. Hawk did bring a few books for me to look over and I was a straight A stud

We walked the rest of the way in silence. I took a deep breath as we arrived back at the room. I wished that he would talk more about my dad and I wished that I had the courage to ask him more. But, I didn’t and a part of me hated myself for it. I’d spent enough time with Teresa that I wished that some of her braveness or even Ava’s aggressiveness would rub off on me, but neither of them was present as we were climbed up the stairs and made it to my room. As we got to the door he asked, “So, do you want to stay or leave?”I nearly asked him, Leave to go where? If he knew about my situation, which I knew he did, he knew that I had nowhere to go officially and that this was my new home. Whether I liked it or not. I shook my head. “Please speak when spoken to.”“Stay.”I hated me more than him for saying that word.“I see. I have appointments to attend to and then we can sit down and talk during an early dinner.”I was sure that Mr. Hawk was married, I’d read about it on the Net, or
Bad Intentions Chapter 18
The first day back at the academy. Technically, it was my second, but I was trying to move on and get past my worse fear. They’d done the worse to me on the first day. I just hoped that they couldn’t do any more. I knew that Mr. Hawk was on my side, but I didn’t want to be the kid that told on other kids every time they were mean. But these guys weren’t mean. They were downright cruel. But that was all in the past. I could only fucking hope that we could all move on. I was the orphan.I was not even close to a size six. And my parents weren’t rich. One was dead and up until four days ago, I thought that both were dead. I sighed as they looked at me, the same way that they did the first day. But I knew that no one was laughing at my tight uniform or the fact that I looked as if I was in the middle of a monsoon. I recited in my head a hundred times last night and this morning about how to get to each class and back. I didn’t want to ask anyone the way. I wanted no reason to be anywh
Bad Intentions Chapter 19
I sat down in class early that Monday morning, and it wasn’t long before I became a student. Something that I had forgotten how to be, not because of the academy or the tragedy that I’d encountered over the last few weeks, but the summer vacation. It felt at the time as if it was going on forever and then when it did come to an end, it felt too short. Crazy.I was kind of a freak when it came to books. I loved to read, eat, learn and eat, Oh and now the thought of food was playing on my mind so much that it had me thinking about eating once more. No, I just had breakfast and the joy of eating again wasn’t going to happen again for another three hours and twenty minutes. Not that I was counting, but then as I looked at the time, I knew that wasn’t true. The teacher came into the class and shut the door, and I closed the door on my thoughts about how much of a comfort food was.He looked like a drill sergeant, or like the teacher out of that movie Matilda. A male version of Agatha Tru
Bad Intentions Chapter 20
Lunchtime couldn’t come any sooner, as I rushed into the line and wished that I could point to everything that was being cooked. The kids may be rich, but the food was fit for royalty. Damn, one thing was for sure, they’ve got everything on the stove when it comes to lunchtime. Chicken, lamb, fish and even vegetarian. It was like a buffet at a five star hotel, that I’d been to only once and even then it didn’t smell as good as what was on offer in front of my eyes. I must admit that my heart was beating so hard as I heard the lunch bell that all I could think about was eating and how good it was that first day and every meal that I’d had here had been the same. But food wasn’t that great that it would keep me here, not against my will. “Chicken and fries please with some peas,” I said as my mouth was watering and I was almost too damned hungry to speak but dying to ask for her just to put every damned thing on my plate, like the lamb and fish too. “Ok, sugar. Here you go.”The caf
