The board approved my return, and the day I start classes again at Almadale Prep seems like a repeat of my first day of freshman year. Instantly, I find myself thrust back into the toxic society of elite teenagers. The mean girls turn their noses up at me, and the boys ignore me to my face but leer behind my back. What do I have to offer but being the butt of their poor people jokes? The only difference this time is, I have several people at my side who will talk to me. I’m not sure I can call them friends yet, as I’ve only known them a few days, but Landry is nice enough, and Trixie never treated me bad when we were classmates before. Although she never interacted with me either.

It’s weird to see the change in her. Freshman year, she and Bodhi were stuck to each other like glue, never apart, and to see them not even talking when they are in the same room, I know something big must have happened. And no one is discussing it.

Thud.

I jerk again as the back of my chair is kicked, jolting me forward, and I feel rage building inside me, so much that I want to turn around, grab the guy behind me by the hair, and slam his head into his desk. I’ve seen it done at Loredo. No one there would dare mess with a student’s desk. The punishment was usually swift and intense. Unlike here. These people walk around with their pretty outsides, but inside, they are garbage—hot, smelly, decaying garbage—with the way they treat others.

Thud.

“Hey, Scholarship.” The guy’s voice assaults my ears, and I move to the side. His hot breath follows me, and I hear giggling coming from somewhere else. “Scholarship?” His singsong tone rises, and I want to scream.

What did I ever do to these assholes?

“Heard you are a good time. Want to prove it?”

I finally turn and look at him. His face repels me, as does the cocky look in his eye as he propositions me. I bet this isn’t the first time he’s done this.

I lean in and get as close to his face as I can. A scowl mars my features, and he shrinks back a little.

“Back. The fuck. Up,” I say slowly, quietly, but it only makes him grin wider, as if he’s won.

These kids think they are untouchable.

“I believe she said to back. The fuck. Up.” Landry’s voice comes from behind me, and I see the guy’s eyes dart up to her and then back to me. His face drops before he sits back in his chair. “Always a fucking pleasure, Peter.”

She stands over him, arms crossed, until he finally gets up and moves to the back of the room. I get the feeling there is a story there—a good one.

Landry sighs as she sinks into the chair behind me.

“I can’t stand that tool,” she says, dropping her bag beside the chair. “Glad you and I have a class together.
