Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 85 – Bailey

I waved off the last little ones from my class at the end of another fun day in school. Two days in, and I was loving this place more and more. The children were a constant source of happiness and I could not help but smile in their company, despite how broken I had been feeling inside, and Alli and Gabby were both very sweet ladies too. Both tried their hardest to make me feel welcome. Thankfully, there were no more unexpected visits from Asher today. After last night, I don’t think I could cope with them. I could only imagine what he must be thinking.

I had barely slept once I had come off the phone to the Luna. Tossing and turning, thinking of everything Miles had said. I didn’t know why he had decided to reach out to me. I planned to message my brother once I was back in my room today to let him know everything. Also, it would give me a chance to try to discover if anything else was happening in pack and if any more progress had been made. Because, for some reason, nobody seemed to want to keep me updated.

“Hey Bailey.” Gabby stuck her head in the doorway of my classroom. “Everything ok today?” She questioned as she watched me tidying my classroom.

“Yeah, all was good.” I smiled back at her.

“Good stuff.” She walked away, leaving me in peace to prepare my lessons for tomorrow, before I finished work for the day. I didn’t really feel in the mood for sitting chatting and gossiping in the staff room like her and Alli seemed to. I wanted to be

alone, especially right now. I know that wasn’t the best way to establish my place within the school, but for now it was going to be the way it was, because thanks to Miles, my head was simply not in the right place.

It didn’t take long for me to have my work done once I got into it, and with me fully focused on it. So, I picked up my things and walked out of my classroom and headed for the main door of the school. “Aww, are you off sweetheart?” Alli’s voice called from behind me, as I turned, I saw her standing at the doorway of the staffroom watching me.

“Yeah, all done for the day.” I told her with a smile. “Will see you tomorrow.”

She nodded, returning my smile. “You look tired. Get home and put your feet up. You want me to get Marc to bring your dinner to your room?” she suggested, taking me by surprise. Was she trying to find excuses for Marc to spend time with me? That seemed a little odd…
