Golden-Brook High

Faith

I nod, glancing around, "Where am I and why am I here?"

Alex

I watch her, "You're in the nurse's office at our school, Golden-Brook High. You hurt your head and blacked out. i found you and ran you here. You're okay, just a concussion, but I wanted to be sure."

Faith

I look at him, "Sch...School? What's that?" I ask, confused.

Alex

Oh sh*t.

"It's where kids come to learn," I explain, "You're two grades higher than normal. But don't worry. My brother and I'll help you until you get back on your feet, alright?"

Faith

I nod and stand, "What period is it and where's my next class?" I ask.

Alex

I wrap my arms around her from behind, "You slept through the majority of the day. It's halfway through seventh period. I...I think you have Calculus or something. Jason has it with you."

Faith

I flash a smile at him, "I...I should get going. I'll eventually find it..."

Alex

I flash a smile and stop her, pulling my jacket off and wrapping it around her shoulders, "I'll walk you. It's on the way to my class anyway."

Faith

I nod and remember which hallway it's down, walking down that one and glancing around.

Alex

I walk with her and kiss her cheek when we get there, watching her walk in before turning around and headed to my class. Jason, if you hear me, know what happened to her. Help her through.

Faith

I watch him go and sigh, looking at the teacher, not saying anything.

"Take a seat," He says, "Now."

I nod and glance around, plopping down in the first one available.

He starts blabbering on about something before looking at me, "What's the answer, Faith?"

I squint, looking at the number, "What...What number is that?"

Jason

Faith comes in just as I assure Alex I'd help her. She doesn't sit next to me, so I assume I'm not remembered. She's called on and i swear mentally, closing my eyes and focusing on sending the answer to her. It sketches on the paper before her, even though a pen was nowhere near it.

Faith

I look down at my paper, something appearing on it, and read it aloud. The teacher nods, "Good job."

Confused, I glance around and shake my head before focusing on the lesson.

Jason

I watch. Yep. She definitely doesn't remember me. Sighing, I raise my hand and ask if I can scoot up for the lesson. The teacher nods and I move to the seat beside Faith, passing a note explaining who I am and what just happened as I sit down.

Faith

I nod and sigh at the note, watching the clock.
