Bailey Elementary Dublin Ohio Novels & Stories

"That does not make us family. My father's cars are for pack royalty.” He hit the gas. The tires spun in the muddy puddle right next to the curb. Dirty, freezing water splashed all over Bailey's jeans and worn-out sneakers. She wiped the gritty water from her cheek. She watched the red taillights disappear down the road. Bailey walked three miles to Blackwood High. The doors slammed shut behind her as she entered the main hallway. She was shivering. Her clothes clung to her skin. Rhea was waiting by her locker. She took one look at Bailey and sighed.

“You guys should really learn some manners. If you're gonna gossip about someone,atbleast do it behind their back.” They huff in annoyance but stomp away anyways. “I'm sorry about. My name is Hayley,I'm the head girl of crescent high.” She extends her hand and I stare at it dumbly “This is the part where you take my hand and shake it.” “Oh.” I respond,flushing red but shaking her hand this time “Bailey Sawyer?” “Uhm yes. That's me.” “Welcome to Crescent High. I'm going to be your escort for the day. I'm supposed to show you around and take you to the principal's office. Also,you can ask me any question and I'll answer if I can.”

“Isn’t she the rogue Luna who ran off and seduced King Maxwell?” I stop walking. Because now I’m hearing me in their mouths. And I’ve heard enough. I push the doors open and step into the school’s waiting hall. There’s a knot of parents clustered near the front desk, and at the center of it—red-cheeked, arms crossed, jaw clenched—is Bailey. She’s sitting in a chair, a bandage on her knuckle and a look on her face that says she’s ready to swing again if someone so much as breathes wrong.

We were close since kindergarten and went to high school and college together. Bailey's parents were in Texas while she stayed in her apartment in New York with me. Bailey was very independent and she wanted to be a successful woman. She presently works at Saint Louisville hospital as a doctor while I on the other hand got a job at a fashion company,' The Brilliance ', a company that was currently arising in the fashion industry. "Hey, Whatsup?"I ask slowly. "Did you learn about it?"Bailey inquires astonished. "Did you just hear what's on the news?".

Bailey released his hand and dropped into a low bow. "Well, isn't she delightful!" Jayce's mother clapped her hands, her shock over Beckett's transformation discarded. She strode forward, looping her arm through Bailey's, tugging her from Tobin's side. "Come, child, let's get you settled into a guest suite. I'm sure you would love a chance to rest after the harrowing time you have had recently. Maybe get a bath. Though, honestly, rust isn't an awful color on you." Eostre chattered as she dragged Bailey into the sithen and away from the safety of the Princes. Tobin clenched his fingers at his side to keep from snatching her back.
