Teen Ink

Chapter 6

Ugh. School. If you told me to choose between battling three million carnivorous wolves single-handed or going to high school, I’ll most likely choose the wolves.
To me, school is like a complete waste of time. You take your time learning in class, but when you come home you forget everything. In my head, information goes through one ear, then out the other.
You must be wondering why a vampire has to go to school. Edward Cullen was so smart he didn’t even need to know the question to give the correct answer. I mean, vampires are already super smart and get good grades, right? Wrong. I, a vampire have gotten loads of grades during my school life, most of them –bad. My lowest is a seven, my highest is an eighty. I know, I know, I’m stupid! But the truth is, I don’t care about school! I just go there to kill time… and to smell the mouthwatering blood. But other than that, school literally sucks! So when my sister ordered me to get ready for my first day at high school, I wasn’t exactly thrilled.
Do I have any friends? Well, I think you guessed the answer to that one…none. It’s not like I’m vicious to my classmates, I’m just not nice to them. Sure they try to be friends with me, but let’s be serious, it’s a huge risk for a human to be friends with a vampire. The whole thing could end up as a bloody mess! Am I right, or am I right?
