By the time history class rolls around, it’s become obvious that Saint’s ignoring me. In none of our shared classes today did he so much as glance my way. Even Liam, who has every right to be furious with me, would sneak peeks now and again. But Saint?

Negative.

I can’t decide if his ignoring me is a blessing or a curse. On one hand, I don’t have to endure his cutting remarks and cold glares. On the other, it’s likely sending the message to everyone around us that he’s not going to step in if they decide to gang up on me again. I’m not stupid. I know it’ll be much worse for me if people think he legitimately doesn’t give a shit.

When I walk into the classroom, Dylan immediately snaps my name, as though he’s been waiting for me.

“Ms. Ellis, a word please.”

Startled, I hurry over to where he’s standing by his desk. He doesn’t look happy, but he never does when he looks at me.

“Yes, Mr. Porter?” I ask in a soft voice.

“Where were you yesterday?” he demands to know without preamble.

Every teacher has asked me this today, but none have been quite so pissed off about me skipping the day before as Dylan appears to be. Being such a solid student with perfect attendance up until this point won me a little more wiggle room than I’d anticipated.

I don’t think Mr. Porter is going to let me off the hook so easily, though.

“I, uh, I just needed the day…” I don’t see any point in trying to make an excuse or lie to him. He’s not going to be lenient with me no matter what I say.

“You just needed the day?” he repeats incredulously. “What does that mean?”

I narrow my eyes and clench my teeth. God, I wish I could lay into him. If we were alone, I wouldn’t hesitate, but I can’t really chew his ass out in front of the entire class.

“I’m sorry, sir,” I hiss instead. “What do I need to do to make up for it?”

He glares at me, and I can see he’s struggling to rein in his temper as well.

At length, he answers, “After class, I’ll give you the homework from yesterday. Now go sit down.”

I slowly release a breath through my nose, then turn on my heel and march to my seat. Liam glances at me with a raised brow, but Saint still won’t look at me. His jaw is tensed, though, and I can tell he’s livid. Because I was talking to our teacher? He doesn’t even know why he should be angry about me interacting with Dylan.

Once class begins, I focus on the lecture and my notes, ignoring everything else until the bell rings. I release a sigh, thankful that I can escape back to my dorm room at last, and begin to gather my things. If I can get my work from Dylan quickly, I can get out of here before Laurel or any of her squad can corner me.
