“Because I believe we can help each other,” he said, leaning back in his seat and gazing up at her. She was a pretty little thing with dark swirls of curly hair and emerald eyes. Her cherry red and full lips were pursed like she was kissing something, but her neatly timed eyebrows were furrowed tog

Lila’s POV “Shouldn’t you be writing your speech for the election? It’s only tomorrow,” Rachel asked, staring down at me with narrowed eyes. I sat, cross-legged, on the couch in the student lounge with my sketchpad on my lap and I peered up at her with a frown. “I’m designing the border

Lila’s POV “Lila, what happened?” Becca asked as soon as I ran into the dorm room. My heart was racing, and I was on the verge of tears; I couldn’t believe what just happened. “I think I messed up,” I said as I took a deep breath, trying to steady my rapid heartbeat. “Messed up how e

“No; actually, I came here to say that I think it’s unfair that she must live off campus. She’d be able to get the best schoolwork done if she were here full-time. She’s already behind and she needs every advantage she can get.” Headmaster Prescott leaned back in her seat and took me in with her

Lila’s POV The finality of his tone made me realize that there was no point in arguing with him any further. His point was made, and his decision was final. I stayed silent, feeling all sorts of defeated while Tiffany Prescott bowed her head to him and apologized for the hundredth time. I f
