Chapter 31: Getting Help
Jules’ pov
"You’re falling behind on almost every subject, Mr. McCarthy." The school counselor said after taking a long glance at my file. I had been summoned to his office and that was the first thing he said after welcoming me in.
Even long after I exited his office, the entire thing he said was all I could think of. It made me extremely worried. I needed to keep my grades up, especially if I want to still remain in this school. Keeping my grades up means securing a spot in this school and not attracting unwanted scrutiny from the school itself upon myself, and that’s exactly what I needed to focus on for now.
Most of the subjects they teach in this school are subjects I’ve never encountered before, but clearly I needed to start studying those subjects if I still want to remain hidden in this school.
The counselor had recommended I find a tutor, and that’s what I’ve been pondering on since I exited his office.
I kept my head lowered as I walked through the hallway, not wanting to attract unnecessary attention from predators towards myself. I ended up bumping against Elio, the silver haired omega who I met at the fraternity party last week. He offered me a warm smile, one which I couldn’t help but return.
"Hey there, what’s up with you?" He murmured and I lazily shrugged one of my shoulders.
"I’ve been pretty chill, what about you?" I responded and he snorted.
"Been grinding as usual. You know, people have been unable to stop talking about your initiation party." He pointed out, and he was completely right.
After Kim informed me that I was free to go that night, Taylor and Josh found me shortly after that and we exited the venue at once. I had been shaking so much that Taylor had to clutch my hand in his at a point.
Apparently, a rumor got spread around school the following week, that I had used my ’daddy’s influence’ to get out of doing the initiation ritual like every other omega. They called me spoil sport, a chicken, a wuss, and so many other names.
