Chapter 16: Season 1 (CH16):
The school was full of people at the moment, he didn't know if Lip and Fiona saw but Frank was here with Karen as her guardian. Lip refused to miss 'being there for him' so instead of just him a Fiona he tagged along, at the moment they were making their way to the principal office at the moment.
"Lip you really didn't need to come you know. This will be over in five, ten minutes tops really." Carl said but really he just didn't want to run into Frank being with Karen, he wouldn't come even when Fiona said that they needed to see the principal. Though here he was for Karen, it was also Lip who had asked him, well more like told.
"Don't worry about it. Karen was busy tonight anyway so I was free." He said with a shrug.
For the past week he had been taking the SAT for other kids, he hasn't told anyone about meeting the college professor though, luckily his scores weren't taken away. That also reminded him of the kid who would come over tonight, sighing he figured he would handle that later, he should have taken it for himself the first time if he didn't want an invalid score.
"You alright there Carl?" Fiona asked catching his sigh.
"Yeah fine. Just a lot going on in my head at the moment, really just ready for the summer. I think I am going to take a trip for it. Maybe, haven't really decided yet, got to see what Kassidi is doing first." He said actually thinking that over while he thought about it, Ty could get him a car and he was thinking of taking a road trip out of town.
"Oh yeah? Why does it matter what she is doing? Just because you hang out a lot doesn't mean you need to get her permission." Fiona had a sour face while talking about it.
"No it is nothing like that. I am just making sure she is still going to be away, she is leaving for at least a month so we will be away from each other but the second half she wants to meet up." He explained while waving his had around, what he said was true though.
They talked more about it as it got closer to summer, she was going to be in Florida for the month with her family so she wouldn't be here, her parents also wouldn't let her get out of it. He was actually okay with this, with her going out of town he could explore some, well more like travel since he couldn't do that a whole lot in his last life, he would do it now though.
"Oh okay good. I just thought that she was controlling what you do or something? So when were you going to tell me your plans of going on this trip, and how were you planning to do it?" She asked as they got closer to the principal office.
"Fiona she isn't that bad, one of these days you will need to get along with her. As for the trip I was going to tell you a week before school was out after ironing out the details, as for how I am getting around... Well my friend Ty is going to lend me his car." He said, just last week he started driving school. It would only be another week before he could take the test for his full license.
"Alright we will talk about this more later. For now let's go and see what your principal has to say." The each took a breath as she opened the office door though he knew everything would be fine.
-------
"If this was a month ago then the conversation would be different," Mr. Daniels the principal said as they were all sitting in his office, "Though Miss. Storm here along with his other teachers have told me things have turned around for him. Just last month he was in another fight and his grades were way below passing grade with him on the brink of repeating this year, which would be really sad.
Luckily though he seemed to change his tune, and while he isn't in the top thirty he is on his way there. They have informed me that as long as he can get in all past assignments before the end of the year his grades will catch up, though they can only give him the passing grade so nothing over a 70."
"Carl's improvements honestly surprised me. I thought I was going to have to inform you that he will be repeating, cause not even summer school could help him. Now though I am glad he has calmed down and is showing his true progress in school, would you like to follow me around so I can show you some of his improvements?" Miss. Storm said with a wide smile as she talked to Fiona.
Fiona also had a big smile while looking at the to faculty members, "That would be great yes."
Carl rolled his eyes but got up to follow them, he honestly just wanted to get back home but he was stuck here doing this now. Leaving the office they went to Miss. Storm's class first, Fiona was listening to everything she said as they talked about his improvements.
Seeing no end in sight he turned to talk to Lip, looking next to him though the man in question was gone, he didn't even notice when he had separated from them. Sighing he took his phone out, he started texting both Sammy and Kass, since he was going to have to follow them around he might as well spend his time talking to someone.
Sammy wasn't here since she just came back to school, although she was in a different grade then him they got along well, surprisingly they started talking about anime. He couldn't talk about it much though, only some major ones were in this world some also hadn't been made the ones that are were; Bleach, One Piece, HxH, MHA, and High School DxD.
There were some she talked about that he had no clue what they were, since they got off that it was random things for the longest time. Eventually it was just them texting each other lyrics to songs, one would start and then the other would follow while switching it in between.
At that point though Fiona met and talked to all of his teachers so they could leave, he let out as sigh of relief as they did so, Lip left early as he had seen Karen with Frank earlier. "Finally this is over. Why did we need to meet them all? We could have been home way sooner you know." He complained as they left.
"That's true, but Lip never lets me go to his or brags about it so I wanted to at least see one of my younger siblings succeed. Plus who knows maybe you will get your wish for doing so well." She said with a smile while walking a little ahead of him.
He thought about it a moment, he didn't know what she was talking about until it finally clicked, "OH! Well that sounds like a great idea, I will have to show off some more then huh?"
"Yeah you can try it but who knows." She laughed while swaying her hips more as she walked ahead of him, he stood behind and watched too since it was such a good view. Her tight fitting jeans were really hugging her butt as she walked along the sidewalk.
For the rest of the walk home they bantered like that back and forth, since they were alone they didn't need to hold back either, since she thought he was being light about it he took it further too. He would hold her waist, pinch her butt, slightly feel her up and etc. she laughed at it all while swatting his hand away and 'reprimanding' him.
As they approached the house they could see a kid in a Letterman jacket walking up, "Go ahead inside Fi, I will see what he wants." She looked him in the eye before giving him a nod and walking inside.
"Hey man, Lip in there." The kid said with a friendly smile.
Carl wasn't buying it though and knew what he was there for, "Come on man, just go home you don't want to do anything stupid. It wasn't his fault this happened, just go take the test yourself."
"What about my money man! Lip owes me, if I don't pass this I won't be able to play or get a scholarship." He growled while walking closer.
"Just go home." Carl said on a sigh.
Getting fed up the other kid took a swing at Carl, which connected since Carl didn't actually expect him to take a swing, maybe shove past him or something but not actually fight. After he got his bearings back he went to attack too, although the guy seemed to have at least twenty pounds on him he still wasn't going to back down.
Since he had been training ever since he got into his body he was ready for a fight, his right hook connected clean, he didn't let the kid get back together before throwing another. When he hit the ground Carl got on him and sent more punches to his face.
Someone must have heard the commotion because he was soon being pulled off of the kid, Fiona came into view calming him down as she stood in front of him looking worried, "Carl.... are you okay?" she asked timidly.
"Yeah fine, it was that asshole's fault anyway. He came here for Lip, since his scores got turned invalid he blamed Lip, I told him to go home but he attacked me first so I hit him right back." He explained after they let him go, Fiona reached for his jaw checking it over.
"You might have a little bruise but nothing else." She said while looking him over.
He nodded and looked at everyone who was outside, it was the whole family while Debby stood at the front door with Liam in her arms, Steve was looking between him and the kid. "Thanks Carl, you should have let me handle it though." Lip said but there was a wide smile on his face as he did so.
"Nah I had it. He wasn't that strong."
They all laughed before going inside, they left the kid on the sidewalk since they had no feeling for someone who was already there to cause problems. Going in Fiona told him to sit while she went to get an Ice pack, he nodded before sitting on the couch, Lip lit up some weed as they all sat down.
Debby pressed play on whatever movie they were watching at the moment, they all went quiet while watching it, turns out it was a Friday the 13th movie. There was only really one of these he liked, and it happened to be the one that he did like the others were okay but not as good as this one, though he did like the one where his mom was the killer aka the original.
"Here put this on your face." Fiona told him while handing him the ice pack then sitting in Steve's lap.
He listened while not taking his eyes off the movie, the weed was passed around with everyone but Debby taking a hit, this was the most family time they had in awhile. Smiling he actually didn't mind the family time, he sat back enjoying it while thinking about his summer plans in the boring parts of the movie.

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPEN TO YOUR FACE!! WHO DID THAT TO YOU I WILL KILL THEM!!" Kassidi screeched when the video call connected as he laid in bed after his shower.
Rolling his eyes he told her, "Had a small fight earlier with someone, and don't worry he looks way worse then me so don't worry. If I need you to hurt someone for me then I will make sure to call you so that you can."
She glared more but started to smile sweetly hearing his words, "Good. You need to be careful though, I don't want anyone hurting you Carl, or you getting hurt from anything. Only I can hurt you."
He raised a brow at that last line, "Excuse me but not even you are allowed to do that, or do you want it harsher the next time we do it."
She didn't respond but her eyes got hazy as a silly smile took over, her cheeks were turning red, no doubt she was thinking about everything he did to her before. He didn't miss the fact that she was still wearing the collar that he gave her, "Did you wear the collar all day?" He asked while taking off his shirt.
"Yes! I have only taken it off to shower, other then that I haven't taken it off for anything. Not even when my dad told me to, he did threaten to take the car but you are more important then it so I didn't care." She answered proudly stick her chest out, she also had an expression that just screamed she wanted to be praised.
"Good job. What should I give you or do to reward you?" He said with a flirty smile.
Though he didn't get a flirty answer he was expecting instead it was something he thought would happen for awhile, "Come to dinner with me and my parents, after coming home with my collar they want to meet you. Don't worry it is just one dinner, plus with how great you are I am sure that they won't have any problems with you."
He rolled his eyes hearing that, there was no way her dad would be happy with him seeing that he was basically treating his daughter as a pet, which wasn't far off. "Fine I will come to one. Though don't blame me if it doesn't go as you expect it too, who knows what your dad will actually think." He said.
"Who cares. As long as I love you then it doesn't matter what they think, especially since they can't keep me away even if they tried. I would just run away."
Knowing her she really would too, isn't that one of the reason's in the show that she was a drug addict and found by him in the first place. He only smiled while agreeing with her, she laughed happily before going into something else since they didn't want to talk about something so depressing.
The date for the dinner would be set later though, he knew he couldn't avoid it he was just going to have to make the best impression that he could. After talking to her longer and texting Sammy some he called it a night, he had some plans for the week which included selling more cars, he also did need to talk to Ty about buying one.
