Tower Prep. (An Ian Archer Love Story)

My eyes fluttered open. I saw a plain white wall. “Where am I?” I asked to whoever could hear.
“Your at Tower Prep. It‘s a school,” an Asian girl said.
“That‘s impossible. I was just listening-”
“To your tunes, right?” She interrupted me. “It was how we all were. Don‘t get too freaked out. What‘s your name anyway? I‘m Suki Sato.”
“Victoria - Tori - Forrest.” I said almost automatically.
Ding ding, class will begin in fifteen minutes. For all new students, Orientation begins in ten minutes.
“You better get ready.” She said picking up her bag and leaving.
“Wait, where do I go?”
“Oh, administration. It‘s the building with the flag pole out front.” With that she walked out the door.
~AFTER ORIENTATION~
“Advanced Science?” I whispered as I looked at the door I was told to go into. I took a deep breath and opened the door. I saw a class of kids. I scanned the room and saw Suki. She motioned for me to sit next to her, and so I did.
She passed me a note. I opened it. Have a good morning?
Why am I here? I wrote. She looked at me and shook her head. I gave her the look I gave people who didn’t do what I wanted. tell me.
I don’t know. She wrote. I shot her a different look. I gave her the look I gave people who made me angry.
“WHAT ARE YOU-?” she asked almost screaming. I stopped.
“Sorry,” I whispered. I hated when I let the anger get the better of me. I let the rest of class pass without talking to her. The tone sounded and she got up. “Look I‘m really sorry about earlier. I didn‘t mean to.”
“it‘s Ok you just don‘t know how to control your ability, I guess.” She said leading me out of the room.
“Where do we go next?” I asked.
“Lunch.” I smiled and eagerly followed. “Hey, everyone this is Tori.” Suki sat down next to a brunette girl.
“Gabe?” I asked, shocked at the sight of my brother.
“Tor, what are you doing here?”
“Wait, Gabe how do you know her?” A very attractive boy asked.
“I‘m sock monkey boy‘s sister. I imagine Senior Guapo is still your best friend.” I teased. He got up and hugged me.
“I missed you Tor.”
“Well, um I guess I am Ian.” The attractive one said. I sat down and started nibbling on my PB&J. “So what is your ability?” He asked.
I looked at Gabe. “Oh um, Hyper-suasion, but hers is way more powerful than mine.” Suki gave me a glance. “It‘s like daddy‘s little girl, all she has to do is look at you a certain way and, boom you do what she wants.”
“Woah, can you show me?” Ian asked. I nodded and gave a random guy across the room, who had been staring at me, my look. Ask me out. He got up and made his way across the room.
“Hey, do you wanna hang out later?” he asked, I had to admit he was kinda cute, but Ian was cuter.
“Ya know what? I think I‘m just gonna hang with Suki here. But maybe next time OK?” He walked away dejected. “See.” I said turning back to the group.
“Is there anyone you can‘t hyper-suade?” Ian questioned.
Gabe gave him a glance. ugh one time I can’t hyper-suade gnomes and I never hear the end of it.
“What are gnomes?” I asked.
“we never said anything-” Gabe started.
“You just did.” I said confused.
“Well I thought- wait, Tor can you read minds?”
“I read about this. You‘re not a hyper-suade, you‘re a mind-controller.” the brunette said. Everybody gave me a strange look. “You can read people‘s minds, put ideas into their heads, and-” she hesitated.
“and what CJ?” Ian asked.
“Nothing.” she said. your welcome, he’ll never like you if he knows you have your other ability. I looked at her confused. I can read emotions. You’re practically in love with him. I nodded and turned back to the rest of the group.
“So IS there anyone who you can‘t control?” Ian asked.
“Not that I‘ve met.” I smiled, happy to please him. They all shared a look. “What?”
“What‘s your next class?” CJ asked.
“Well they never gave a schedule.”
“Lemme see your laptop.” Gabe said. I obediently pulled it out and handed it to him. “Whisper, What is Tori‘s next class?”
“Art.” My computer said.
That’s my next class. Ian thought.
“Cool, you can show me where it is!” I said a little too excitedly. He looked at me bewildered. I pointed at my head. He bobbed his up and down, “You‘ll get used to it.” I said.
ding ding.
We all got up and went our separate directions. I followed Ian.
