***Chastity***

The days since I returned to school from my trip home have been hectic, but enjoyable for the most part. Sunday was a quiet, return to life day. I washed all of the clothes I took with me for my visit, hung my new pictures, and set up my new statue and vase Rowen bought for me. He also surprised me by sending me a bouquet of lilacs to put into it. His card read that he wanted me to be able to fully enjoy my new vase.

In between laundry, and after putting things away, I got to work reviewing my assignments that would be due the coming week. I also did some reading for my classes. Lilac, and I spent a lot of time in my room. that day. I needed it to unwind, and get back into school mode. Lexi was the same way so she spent some time sprawled out on my bedroom floor reading, and just relaxing. I appreciated that Lexi was just as dedicated to her studies as I was. She also seemed to be connecting more, and more working in health care.

Monday morning it was back to business as usual. I had three classes that day, and plenty of homework to do for each class. Thankfully my classes were set up that I had the same classes every other day so I had some time to complete the more involved assignments. In self defense class we had a different instructor. He was more professional, and was more thorough in his explanations than Matt was. He also used verbal adjustments to our moves instead of physical ones. He respected our personal space. I really appreciated that about him.

Tuesday started with my early class which was at 7:00. Immediately after was my appointment with Dee- Dee. Due to my class schedule my meetings with her now had a specific end time. We still had about two hours so that helped. We went over my time spent at home. We talked extensively about the things that had happened with Naomi. I was a little surprised when she agreed with me about Naomi needing therapy, and that maybe the problems I had with Naomi all stemmed from her own issues. From there I made it to my second class of the day. Ending with self defense, and I was thankful that Matt wasn’t back. Wednesday was the same as Monday with my schedule. Our Anatomy instructor decided to surprise us with a pop quiz on what we had learned about the human skeleton so far. I hoped I did well on it, but I wasn’t too confident. He said he would have the grades posted later that night though. This would tell me what I needed to go back, and review so I appreciated that. Intro to pediatrics brought about my first paper which was on patient intake. I knew I would do well on that one as I had done a few of those at Moonlight’s hospital over the years.

Unfortunately Matt was back in self defense class, and he made me uncomfortable again, by touching me when he was asked repeatedly not to. Lexi went as far as to step between us. He repaid her by making. her do 50 push ups. When she threatened to complain about him, I told her to just leave it alone because if he got mad about that he could make her do more. She agreed to not say anything. We were leaving. class when he stopped me.

“Hey Chastity.” Matt called me, and I turned to him, Lexi and Norm stopping right with me.

“Yes Matt?” I responded.

“Can I talk to you a second?”

“Um. Sure. What’s up?”

“You two can go.” Matt said to Lexi, and Norm causing me to tense.

“No thanks. We stay with Chastity.” Lexi responded, and moved closer to me.

“That’s really not necessary.” Matt said.

“Yeah it is. We’re all hungry so can you just say what you needed to say please?” Lexi snarked.

“Fine. Chastity, I tried to get in touch with you last week. I left you a note on your door last Sunday. I thought we could hang out while you were off school for the week. Maybe go to one of the movies in town or something. I couldn’t find you around the pack either.” Matt said, smiling at me, and I pinched my brows.

“I went home for the week.” I responded, quietly wondering what note.

“I figured you were in town with your family, but I didn’t know which house was yours.”

“I was with my family. I’m not from Dark Moon. I went home to my pack to spend time with my family.”

“You’re not from Dark Moon? But I thought since you were friends with the Gamma’s daughter you were.” “No. We met the first day of class. Same with Norm.”

“Oh. Well maybe I could take you out, and show you around town a bit one day.”

“Um. Thanks, but I’m pretty busy with classes, and stuff right now. Besides Norm, and Lexi have already shown me around.”

“Oh. Another time then.”

“Yeah. Bye.”

“Bye.”

I left the classroom in silence, and completely confused. What was that all about? Now I was even more uncomfortable.

“What was that all about?” Norm questioned bringing me out of my thoughts.

“I have no idea. What note? I never saw a note. How did he even know what room I’m in?” I questioned out loud.

“The note was probably removed by the cleaning crew that keeps the halls in housing clean. He would have your room number because it’s on your class registration.” Lexi responded.

“Anyway. How do you think you did on the quiz in Anatomy?” Norm asked excitedly.

“I think I did ok.” Lexi responded.
