My Bothersome Life 19 Starting Middle School

I changed my middle school uniform that was delivered to my front door a few days ago. The uniform consisted a white collared shirt with a beige and maroon plaided vest. There was also a cute mini maroon pleated skirt that landed right before the middle of my upper thighs. I put on my knee high socks and my black dress shoes and got into the car owned by the school. The car was driven by itself so there was no such thing as a driver, since it came from the second district.

If we were to bring out hover cars from the first district, it would cause a mess in the third district. So the school decided to bring a car that resembled something from the third district, but came from the second district.

When I arrived in front of the school, I saw Luke talking to Alex. When they both saw me looking in their direction, the new teacher came out of the school entrance, "Welcome!"

"My name is Daniel de Whemms and I will be your instructor for the next three years for the class of six people." His deep voice resounded.

When I looked behind my shoulder, I saw both Ellen and Shelly getting out of their hover cars in a hurry.

"Let's go in!" His voice boomed.

The group of six people including me was led to a large classroom. This was where Daniel started to explain the structure of the school. Basically, it was the same as elementary school except, "I'll be giving you a assignment every month to test your practical skills, but I'll give you the first assignment one week from now to let you settle in!"

I wondered what 'practical skills' the teacher meant. While I was in a dilemma, I was led to a clean room with two beds and two private bathrooms. "This is where you and your partner will stay for the first week," the teacher said while gesturing to Luke.

It was nice that we weren't thrown into a medieval room this time. But, it was god-given we didn't have to worry about points for the first week as well.

Luke and I settled into the room and took a nice break for the rest of the day doing our own respective things.

-----------------------------------------------------------

One week later.

The teacher gathered all six of us into the classroom and said something very surprising, "For the next month, you guys will be switching partners. Meaning you switch partners every two weeks until you are paired back with your original partner. Additionally, we will be implementing the point system now. So that means you will be led into a new room with your new partner. The point system will be the same as elementary school so I'll be announcing the new pairs for the next two weeks."

OMG. I was finally liberated from Luke for the next month. Being partnered up with Luke wasn't so bad with his genius like capabilities, however because he had high expectations of me that I had to follow, I was restricted in terms of what I could do.

Luke didn't let me rest if I didn't get a certain grade and dragged me to these hell-like study sessions ever since kindergarten. I couldn't utter a complaint especially starting from elementary school because he was doing this so we can afford to buy our daily necessities. However, when I overdid studying on my own, I would get severely lectured by Luke for hours.

When it came to weekends and holidays, I didn't have any. At first it was because we had to accumulate more points, but later on when we got a certain amount of freedom with the amount of points we accumulated, it was because Luke simply had a habit of making me study so that I didn't slack off. So whenever I complained it was too much, Luke would increase the amount of studying I would have to do while adding another hour of more lecturing of how I should behave.

When I asked why he cared so much with how I behaved, Luke replied that, "It's because you're my fiancé and you have to act accordingly to match the standards of the Roselia house in the future."

It was more like Luke was trying to brainwash me to absorb some good habits. So when I was occasionally able to escape from Luke's radar, i went to Shelly and Ellen to go complain my heart out while drinking some tea. I didn't get to indulge with games, TV shows or other forms of entertainment since I wasn't allowed to go home. So I had to entertain myself with talking with Ellen and Shelly with how our days went.

But only recently, I got hold of some manga and light novels and secretly brought them to school. However, I was only able to sneak in about ten of them into my vest. Sigh.

How was I able to sneak in ten? Don't even ask. It was hard enough to keep them hidden from Luke with both my secret stash of junk food and the books. That's why I wasn't getting a proper amount of sleep lately. Sigh.

"I'll give you guys thirty minutes to pack up your stuff from your rooms to come back to this classroom. The thirty minutes starts - now!" Daniel proclaimed.
