★» THE NEXT MORNING »★ PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE »★
Mr Griffin was checking over some students file when he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in" He said dropping the files and Taylor walked in.
"Good morning Miss Taylor" He said and she smiled dropping a letter on the table.
"My daughter is leaving your school" She said and his eyes widened standing up..
"What?! Why?!"
"The school is way too dangerous. Under your custody, she has been kidnapped, almost ràped, hurt and almost killed. I can't loose my daughter. To prevent that from happening, I have to take her out of this school" Taylor said and Griffin sighed.
"I understand. A lot of people have taken their children because those set of children stood up to the three girls. I was hoping your daughter will make a change in the school but I guess I was wrong" He said and smiled settling down on his chair.
"The letter is approved. She can leave" He said and Taylor stared at him for a while before leaving the office.
Mr Griffin sighed.
★» ARIEL'S ROOM »★
Ashley's eyes opened and she turned to the other side of the bed but she met it empty.
She sat up with a sad look on her face and the door opened.
"Ariel" Ashley called and ran to her giving her a tight hug.
"I missed you" Ashley said and a tear rolled down Ariel's eyes but she wiped it immediately before replying.
"I missed you too" Her voice croaked and Ashley broke the hug.
"What's wrong?" She asked and Ariel smiled as another tear drop rolled down her eyelids.
"I'm leaving" Ariel said and Ashley's eyes widened.
"What?! Why?!"
"Well, my mum said the urm...school isn't safe anymore and she wants me to leave" Ariel said and Ashley blinked back her tears.
"I'd be visiting you if I'm chanced" Ashley mumbled.
"That's the thing, I'm also leaving the country" Ariel said and the tears fell from Ashley's eyes.
"That's not fair. Why would you leave me all alone here? No one is as exciting as you are, please don't leave" Ashley said and Ariel sniffed.
"I don't want to but that's what my mother wants. She doesn't want to loose me and I can't afford to loose her so I just have to agree. For our safety I have to leave" Ariel said and Ashley stepped away from her blinking back the tears.
"Ariel, please, please. You're the only friend I have in this school, I can't loose you just like that" Ashley said.
"You have Logan"
"That's a guy. We aren't close the way you and me are. Please Ariel, stay. Please" Ashley said and Ariel bit her lips before stepping back from her.
"I'm sorry" Ariel said and went to the closet.
She already came into the room yesternight and packed her things so she carried the luggage before coming to Ashely.
She hugged her tightly and she sniffed.
"Love you girl" Ashley said and Ariel cried on her shoulder.
"I love you more" She said admist her tears.
They broke the hug and she smiled before leaving the room.
Ashley fell on her knees as hot tears trailed down her eyes.
★» ROOFTOP »★
Ariel was seen standing at the rooftop looking down at the students coming in. She wiped her tears when she heard the door open and close.
"Ariel" Conrad called and she turned slowly.
"Conrad" She muttered and he frowned.
"Why are you crying?" He asked and she smiled.
"I'm not"
"Why are you holding your luggage?" He asked and she looked at the luggage then at him.
"I'm..urm..leaving the school and the country. For good" She said and his frowned deepened.
"Why?"
"It's for the best. I can't allow my mum to loose me and I can't loose her. This place is just way too dangerous for me to stay" She said and he stepped forward.
"So you're just going to run away?"
"I'm not running away. I'm just doing what's right" Ariel said and he scoffed.
"What's right?!! Leaving is not right!" He snapped.
"It is for me"
"I won't let you leave" He said and she sighed.
"Please Conrad. Don't make this hard for me" She said.
"Don't use your powers on me Conrad if not I will be so mad at you. Please just let me leave" Ariel said and he just stared at her.
She walked towards him dragging her luggage with her. She stopped when she got close to him and she pulled him in for a tight hug.
"I'm going to miss your blue cold eyes and you" She said and his eyes glowed red as he tried so hard not to do something about this.
She was about to break the hug but he wrapped his hands around her hugging her tightly.
She saw Logan at the rooftop door and she bit her lips.
"Can I hug him as well. It's the last time I'd see him yunno" Ariel whispered and Conrad exhaled.
"Okay" He said and broke the hug.
She pulled the luggage with her and walked to Logan.
He pulled her in for a tight hug and she smiled a bit reciprocating the hug.
"I'll miss you so much" He said and she smiled.
"I guess I'd miss you too" She said and he broke the hug.
She looked back at Conrad who was staring at her then at Logan before smiling.
She turned and left the rooftop. She walked through the hallway and the little people around there began murmuring.
The three girls stopped in front of her staring at the bag she was holding.
"Woahhh, so you're actually leaving" Andrea said and laughed.
Ariel tried walking away but Alicia blocked her. She sighed and looked at her.
"Move out of my way lemme leave in peace." She said and Andrea smirked.
"I'm so happy you're leaving. My dad is really the best, too bad some doesn't have one" Andrea said with a smirk and Ariel's gaze landed on her.
Taylor who was already in the school heard it and she frowned.
"Oops." Andrea said and laughed same as her sisters. They walked past her hitting her with their shoulders.
Taylor turned and walked out of the school going to enter the limousine.
She inhaled and exhaled before walking towards the exit.
She looked back at the school before walking out of the school.
"Took you long enough. Let's go" Taylor said coming to her.
She took the luggage from her and went to drop it in the boot of the limousine.
"Mum" Ariel said and Taylor looked at her.
"Let's go so we won't miss our flight" Taylor said and she sighed before walking past her entering the limousine.
Taylor sighed before entering the limousine as well.
The door went shut and Ariel winded down the window before resting her head on it.
The driver ignited the engine and drove off.
Conrad ran out of the school and started running after the car.
"Ariel!!!" His scream rammed her ear drums and she looked back.
She saw him running and tears rolled down her eyes.
He would have used his powers but there were people around so he had to do it the old fashion way.
He would have also frozen time but she wouldn't be happy if he does that so he has to do it this way.
She faced forward and covered her face with a hoodie cap.
Taylor stared at Ariel before sighing.
"Stop the car" Taylor said and Ariel's eyes widened.
"What?" The driver asked.
"I said stop the car" she said and the driver stopped the car.
"Mum, what are you doing?" Ariel asked and Taylor looked at her.
"Just like your mum, she faced every problem head on. I can't deprive you of your happiness even tho you get hurt sometimes" she said and Ariel chuckled.
"Plus, I heard what those mean girls said. You're going to prove to them that even without having your complete set of parents, you are still able to make a huge change in the school. Do that when you get back to school today" She said and Ariel smiled hugging her mum.
"Thank you so much. I love you" She said.
"I love you more. Now go meet that guy" Taylor said and she smiled breaking the hug.
She opened the door and saw Conrad catching up to the car.
She started running towards him and when they got close, he carried her up by the butt while her arms were wrapped around his neck.
"Conrad" She muttered closing her eyes.
