Chapter 7: Black Haired Woman

Leah's P.O.V

The next day, I wake up, do my morning routine and change into a grey long sleeved cardigan, blue jeans, a beanie, sneakers and a scarf (in the picture as well) and go downstairs for breakfast

"good morning mom, dad. Hey Cole" I say while heading to the stove to make some eggs and pancakes. When I'm done, I make tea and eat my breakfast. Then I go to the living room and wait for Cole to come out.

"COLE! HURRY UP" I shout, he wastes too much time also he is currently banned from using his car until further notice so have to drop him on my way

"Chill Leah, I'm coming or are you going to leave me"" he asks

I pick up my bag and reply "I'm going in 5...4....3..."" I count while waking out the door ""1....0..... Bye mum and dad. See you later Cole" and I run into my car

'WAIT LEAH I'M COMING!"" Cole shouts as he struggles with his bag while coming out the door. I sigh and wait and he jumps into the front seat and I speed off to the Gabriels' house

*after some time*

I park and come out of the car then go to press the bell and I enter with all my swag and all until I miss my footing and fall, I close my eyes awaiting the impact but I'm being held by someone, when I open my eyes I see my idiot brother Cole laughing while helping me up

"Thanks Cole" I say but he's too busy laughing to acknowledge my thanks and I hit him at the back of the head before heading to the kitchen and find Stephanie and Xavier eating

"Hey people, I know you all missed my amazing presence" I say and drag out a chair to sit on

"Honestly, Leah, I didn't miss you one bit because your voice s stuck in my head babbling about how much you like my br...unch ideas" Steff says and I glare at her noticing her almost slip up

"What did you actually want to say Steff? How much you like my 'br' what" ax asks while staring at Steff and that girl couldn't lie properly to save her life

"I said my brunch ideas" she replies much to my relief

Í don't believe you Steff, say the truth" Xavier insists and I see her gulp

"shut up you two and hurry up we have" I check how much time we have left before school starts "8 more minutes" I'm lying, we have 20 minutes more but if I didn't say that he would continue to pester Steff until she says what she actually wanted to say. They both hurry up and get their bags before running to the car and I chuckle before going to Amelia's house and pressing their door bell soon enough a woman with black hair opens the door

"Hello and who might you be" she asks

"I'm Leah, Amelia's friend from school" I reply effortlessly

"Why then, come in" she says and go inside.

Inside the house is painted brown with black sofas from here it looks like the kitchen is painted orange and the dining room is together with it- just like in the Gabriels' house

"Amelia! There's someone here for you" the woman shouts son enough Amelia runs down the stairs wearing a white shirt with an owl on it, black skinny jeans, black combat boots while holding a black backpack, her phone and glasses.

"Yes mom, I'm here and who's looking for me" she asks

"Me" I reply and wave at her "want to come with me, Cole, Steff and Xavier to school"

"Okay lemme just grab something to eat" she replies before heading into the kitchen and coming out with toast "let's go" she nods to me "bye mum, see you later" and we walk out to my car

"Whoa, your car is really full and who the hottie in the front seat" she asks and I look at the front seat to see Cole "you mean him, my brother, and the stupid idiot lucky to be my twin. Nope he is not and will never be 'hot'. Amelia I think you need thicker lenses" I say and get into the car and shut the door and Amelia does so too before I speed off.

After some time we get to Cole's school

"Bye Cole!" we all shout as I drop him off

"Shut up! You guys are sooo embarrassing sometimes" Cole says

"Love you little bro" I say

"Leah how many times must I tell you, I'm older by 20 seconds" he says

"No you're not but I know you wish" I reply and blow kisses while driving away

*at school*

"Leah you liar we still have a long time before school starts" Steff complains

"Shut up Steff we are just 5 minutes early now let's go" I reply and Amelia joins us

"Stephanie do you agree with me that Leah's brother Cole is hot" Amelia says

Steff scrunches up her face "hot is not a way to describe Cole... cute is a better choice but you can say Leah is hot"

"Yeah she is" someone mumbles and I blush

"Now who said that" Amelia and Steff ask at the same time

"I wonder" Xavi says and whips out his phone

When the bell rings and I get my math books I head to class with Steff and Xavi by my side, enter the class and take our seats before the tardy bell goes showing everyone else is late including the teacher. Some students come in but no teacher so I take out my phone and play some games. 30 minutes later no teacher so I decide to do something.

I walk to the front of the class and take the attendance book "everyone since Mr. Robert isn't around I'm going to take over this class let's start with attendance"

McKenzie stands "Leah who gave you the position as teacher"

I smile "McKenzie, sit down and to answer your question, nobody gave me the position as teacher. I'm just doing this so everyone can have fun. Any other questions" I ask and look around and I see no hands up so I take roll call and mark everyone present even though not everyone is here but skipping class

"Now, everyone can do what they want but just don't make noise and knowing the principal, she would be checking the classes today so don't make noise and bring out your books, just place them on your desk and open to page 54 so when she comes it would look like we are doing something important. That's all thanks for your co-operation" I say and head too my seat to sleep. In my sleep I hear the door opening and I raise my head up to see the principal coming in and I sit up and pretend to be solving an equation "good day students "principal Hathaway says

"Morning Principal Hathaway" we chorus

"Um... where is the teacher for this class?" she asks

I answer "the teacher isn't around so we decided to do some exercises to pass time"

"Okay, continue" she smiles approvingly and leaves the class and someone says "thank you Leah for helping us or we would have been in big trouble. Like really really really big trouble"

"You're welcome, but it really was no problem" I say before bringing out my phone and scrolling through Instagram stopping to like some nice pictures.

After sometime the bell goes and I gather my stuff and head out of the class to wait for Amelia since we both have drama class in about 10 minutes.

Amelia comes out of her class "hey Leah,"

"Okay, who is your health teacher" I ask

"Mr. Philips" she replies

"I think we have the same teachers for the same subjects" I say as we enter the classroom and the bell goes signaling class to start

*Amelia's P.O.V*

After Leah and I take our seats, Mr. Collins comes into the class "good morning students. Today I am going to assign you your group partners for the rest of the session" and some people get up going to sit near their friends but Mr. Collins stops them "like I said, I will be picking partners" he brings out a sheet of paper from under his table and calls out some names

'Rachel and Courtney, Joshua and Phil, Thomas and Reese..." and more names of people I don't know.

Leah is hot like Stephanie said but I have to keep an eye on her, she is going to be a very good weapon/ asset for my plan to succeed and that Stephanie will be very good too but Leah is the best also Xavier and Leah have some chemistry from what I see. Await me little bitch, cause you don't know how big a storm until it strikes.

Then I hear the teacher "Amelia and Hans, Leah and..."
