Noah Ford

"Claire, are you sure your crush is not in trouble?"

   Lana found her voice the moment Mr Kavinsky and Noah left the classroom. Claire sighed and sunk deeper in her seat. Though she hated what Noah did to her but she is afraid that her uncle might had requested for Noah to leave the school, which is likely to be true.

   No one seemed to be saying anything. Much like they are going to have a bad day with the way things are going. Mr Kavinsky's visit to any class doesn't go well and it becomes bad when a student leaves with him, which only happens in a rare occasion.

  No one seems to understand why Noah will be summoned except Claire. He is an asshole but carries everyone along. Though he pretends to not care but the truth is he does and only a few of his friends know his true nature.

  He hasn't had a great childhood, it was just him and his daddy, who is always busy and his nanny, who he now calls mother.

  If you are lucky enough to get close to Noah, you will understand that him pretending to be bad boy and presenting a nonchalant attitude is his way of hiding the pain he feels in his heart. Though he lacks nothing but due to his dad's busy schedule and no mother around, he has always been the one doing his shits alone. 

   Right in the principal's office, Noah sat facing the principal with Mr Kavinsky staring at both if them.

  Few minutes passed and nothing was said and when Noah felt he would not be getting a reason for his summon, the principal broke the awkward silence.

  "I am sorry, Mr Ford but you will be going home for a few weeks"

Mrs Collins said with an apologetically smile on her face. Noah was taken back a little and he has to ask,"Sorry Madame Collins, why should I go home for a few weeks?"

  "I'm afraid you are on suspension for bullying your fellow student"

  Noah needed not to ask who he bullied because he knew already and he is not going to play ignorant to it. So he stood up and left the principal's office with his backpack hanging on his back. He never bothered to ask the principal how many weeks he will be staying at home, he felt it's not important. He has a bigger problem and that's facing his dad. If his dad hears it he will have no peace and again he might pull him out of spring High which he would not want.

  Before getting into his spider, he turned and found Claire at the lever looking at him, he looked up and found Crystal trying to ask him where he was going.

   He sighed, got into his spider and drove out of the school after giving his passcard to the security. He had grabbed it on his way out.

  "Do you have any idea why he is leaving?"

Lana found herself asking her friend who had not said anything since. SHE just wanted Claire to say anything but she is not sure she will be getting any words out of Claire very soon.

  Just that moment, the bell for the second period rang and Lana and Claire headed into their class.

   Few minutes later, Noah drove through the gate of the FORD mansion and got down, leaving his backpack in the car. The drive from his school to the mansion is just five minutes and that's why he is allowed to drive alone.

 His dad's men were at their various post guiding the mansion, what they are guiding, Noah can't tell. Even when his dad is not in town, tons of his men will still be here making him uncomfortable. The only place he can be normal is in school and now, that freedom has been taken away from him for God's know how. If he survives this period of his suspension at home then he can survive anything.

  His nanny, Madam Cassidy saw him walked in and immediately went to him. She helped him shrug off his school jacket and led him to the main living room before going to get water for him.

   She did not want to bug him until he had taken water. She has been doing that for years, each time he comes back from anywhere she first hands him a glass of water before asking him questions.

  After Noah drained the water, he stood up and started walking towards the stairs leaving madam Cassidy confused. "Please don't let my dad know I am at home"

Was the last thing he said before disappearing upstairs.

   Madame Cassidy knew there is no way she would not tell Mr Harrison that his son is back home from school when he is not supposed to but she would wait first to know why and as far now, she will let him be until he is ready to talk.
