Chapter Twenty Five
Star's POV
After a long, quiet car ride we got to Freedom University. The campus was HUGE! There was a building in the middle that was 4 floors big.
All the way to the right was a building labeled 'Boy's Dorm' and far to the left was a building the same size as the one on the right labeled 'Girl's Dorm'. In the middle was multiple basketball courts, volleyball nets, a giant soccer and football field and tennis courts. (Author~Chan has never been to cool-leg/college/university so idk what they have there... is university and college the same thing? If not it is in this story...)
There was many older kids walking around, playing sports and talking to eachother. They all looked so friendly and nice. But looks can always be deceiving...
"Wow," I breathed.
"Are you Starkensy?" A gentle voice asked. I looked up to see a woman in her early forties looking down at me. I nodded and when behind Alesa. "Are you here mum?" She asked.
"No I'm just a great friend of hers! Who are you?" Alesa asked kindly with Mason on her hip, stroller in front of her.
"I'm the head of Freedom University! My name is Mrs. Smith but you can also call me April if you'd like," April said happily. Her happiness was contagious making me smile shyly.
"It's nice to meet you Mrs. Smith," I said quietly as she bent down to my level sticking her hand out for me to shake.
"Nice to meet you too!" She said as I shook her hand.
"Good afternoon Mrs. Smith!" I heard a group of students say in union.
"Good afternoon students!" She beamed.
"How are you Mrs. Smith?" A boy in the group asked. He was very tall, about Max's and Adam's height, he had dirty blonde hair and dark brown eyes. He wore a blue and white v-neck with a dark blue plaid jacket, Dark black jeans and a white beanie on top of his head.
"I'm good thank you for asking! How are you Kyle?" She asked, her happy tone never fading.
"I'm doin' great! Who's this little girl?" He asked changing him and his friends gazes towards me.
I smile shyly at them then I look down at my feet. Mason gave me a side hug. I looked down at him and returned the hug. Mason smiled up at me as I picked him up and he rested his head on my shoulder.
"This is Star, she is the one that we gave the scholarship to! Star these are the group of kids that will be helping you out here! Since it's a big jump and it's huge here so they will be guiding you to classes and they'll be picking you up when she can't," Mrs. Smith said motioning towards Alesa. Mason made grabby hands towards her so I passed Mason to Alesa.
(ITS NOTHING THAT HAPPENS HERE IS DIRTY OKAY! Just want to make that clear...)
I waved at the group of young adults as one pulled on my arm bringing me to the middle of the group. Something soft was being pulled over my head so I instinctively closed my eyes. A pad of slightly damp paper was placed on my left check and someone pressed firmly onto it and held it there. Something was placed into my hand as a part of whatever they put on me was pulled down squishing something soft on my head. I scrunch my face up slightly at all the movement happening to me. Once it all stopped and the damp paper was pulled off my face. I heard Alesa laughing slightly as I opened my eyes and looked over at her. She took out her phone and I looked questionably at her as I heard a 'Click' from her camera. She started to tap on her phone carful not to drop it with Mason resting on her hip, her right arm around him.
I looked down at myself. I was wearing the university logo on the over-sized hoodie. A flag with the school logo on it was place in my hand getting held up by a stick. A small itch was where someone put the damp paper. There was some weird material on there that felt like dried glue. I tilt the soft thing on my head down. I see the school logo on it, blue filling in the rest of the beanie. I look over and see Mrs. Smith not there anymore.
I look over at the group as they start introducing them selves.
"I'm Kyle this is Winslow, Ashley, Maddison, Derek, Nicole and Lukas!" Kyle said happily pointing to his friends. I wave shyly and look up at Kyle.
"Thank you for these. Where did Mrs. Smith go?" I said quietly as he beamed me a smile.
"She had to go take care of something so we'll be showing you around!" He said happily. I looked over at Alesa and stared at her. Seconds later her phone started ringing.
"Hey what's up? ...Okay... yup... ah hahhh... okay I'll see you soon love ya!" She said happily into the phone. "That was Adam (NO DRAMA HERE) I have to get back now..." she trailed off looking down at me. I frowned slightly. I honestly didn't want to leave yet. I made up my mind on actually staying here and I want to know what else they have here.
"I guess I'll see you later then?" I said as she gave me a questioning look.
"But you don't hav-" Alesa was interrupted.
"I can drive her back!" Kyle volunteered stepping forward.
"Uhh I don't know... we were going to take her out to eat," Alesa said as she placed Mason on the ground who ran over to me and hugged me.
"It's fine I can just walk back 'home' anyway. I'll be fine Alesa I'll see you guys later," I said hugging Mason and then going over and giving Alesa a hug.
"If your sure..." she said questionably and I nodded "Fine see you later."
"Thanks Alesa!"I have her one last hug as she and Mason started to walk away.
"So let's get going then!" Winslow said walking backwards.
Time Skip because I FUCKING LOVE CHEERIOS!
"Pass it over here!" I yelled as the basketball went flying my way. I dribbled it towards the hoop. Kyle was there with his hands folded to launch me. I put one foot on his hand and he launched me up. I dunked the ball but hung on to the hoop. I looked down and I was very high up. These hoops were 11 feet tall.
"Star drop I got you," Derek said ready to catch me. I nodded letting go of the hoop landing safely in his arms but... my leg still hit the ground. And it hurt like hell...
